The implementation of digitalization in teaching can only succeed in the long term and throughout the university if it is perceived as a joint task of all responsible actors, levels and persons and is dovetailed accordingly. It is the task of the ZML to ensure this networking at KIT and to coordinate distributed responsibilities and activities.
In accordance with its mission, the Center for Technology-Enhanced Learning (ZML) acts as a contact and coordination point for digital teaching topics at KIT. It is committed to the continuous and systematic development of media use in teaching in order to actively shape the media future of teaching at KIT.
On the one hand, the ZML sees itself as a representative of the teaching staff at KIT, takes up their requirements and needs, bundles them and represents them in the relevant committees. On the other hand, the content focus is based on strategic considerations derived from:

Several service units are involved in the provision of services in the field of digital teaching. With the e-learning service pages, the ZML has created a central portal for users to transparently present services and offers independently of the provider and to provide contacts within KIT. In order to ensure a coordinated approach between the DEs, the ZML is in regular contact with the Library, Scientific Computing Center, General Services and Facility Management service units in particular.
The ZML acts as the first point of contact for the Digital Office in the area of digital teaching and contributes its expertise by leading the relevant working groups. The ZML also acts as a central point of contact for external questions relating to digital teaching at KIT and networks with relevant institutions and partners such as the Hochschulforum Digitalisierung, the Hochschulnetzwerk Digitalisierung der Lehre Baden-Württemberg (HND-BW), eteaching.org and TU9.
