• Assistance and management
• Organising the data transfer (transcript of

Relation between workload and lesson hours 1
Problems Computing CPs from lesson hours is an
erroneous approach - It does not reflect the
actual workload. - The workload per semester will
probably not sum up to the wanted 30 CP
(equivalent to 900 working hours/semester). Indiv
idual workload estimates made by the professors
for their own lectures may lead to
conflicts. The actual workload for a given
subject is normally not known.

Relation between workload and lesson hours 2
Solution Motivation The modularization process
is also a welcome occasion to restructure a
curriculum. 1) The workload for a particular
subject shall depend on the judgement of a
faculty academic commitee. This commitee
defines the workloads for all given subjects.
The workload typically depends on the module
type (lecture, lab exercise, seminar or
combined mix). 2) The content of each subject
has to be adjusted to the corresponding
workload. 3) The academic staff shall commit to
these regulations.

Relation between workload and lesson hours 3
Questions 1 ) How can a defined workload
correspond to reality? 2) What do the
professors think about this seeming
restriction of their academic freedom? In our
talks to colleagues we experienced a lot
ofunderstanding, so Q. 2) is easily answered.

Workload evaluation 1
There must be an evaluation of all modules to
determinethe workload, e.g. by means of
questionnaires. The evaluation should not be
conducted by the institution, but by the
professors on an individual basis to avoid
acceptance problems. They may publish the
results or not, or only discuss them with the
students (or not).
16
17
Workload evaluation 2
The results shall be used to adjust the workload.
Of course, this is an iterative
process. Deviations depending on the structure
and quality of the student group are inevitable
and have to be tolerated. The aim is to achieve
an acceptable workload in the long term.
