As part of the ActiveLearn project, health-promoting learning spaces are to be created at KIT and students and lecturers are to be sensitized to the topic of "healthy learning". The focus is on 'active learning on campus', but 'active learning in homestudying' and the interaction of lecturers with students in the teaching setting are also taken into account.
The program, centered around networking and health communication, addresses the topic of "Healthy Learning" through three core components: physical activity, relaxation, and ergonomics. These elements will be designed and delivered in a modular and flexible format to meet the diverse needs of participants:
1) Development and implementation of trainings and workshops (e.g., How to ergonomically set up your learning workstation), as well as the provision of short movement (e.g., 5-minute neck fitness) and relaxation breaks (e.g., 5-minute progressive muscle relaxation). These activities will take place directly at the learning locations, in order to keep participation barriers as low as possible.
2) Development of communication materials on the topic of "Healthy Learning" (e.g., posters with neck stretching exercises or information on "How to learn in a healthy way"), which will be displayed on campus and at learning spaces at KIT to further raise awareness of the topic.
2) Development of communication materials on the topic of "Healthy learning" (e.g. posters with neck stretching exercises or on the topic of "How do you learn healthily?"), which are displayed on campus and at the learning locations at KIT to raise additional awareness of the topic.
