Abstract

e-Learning can be seen as service creation process including core, enabling and enhancing services. We focus on enhancing services for managing thesis and seminar processes at our university in order to support transparency, track-ability, communication, and success for our students and lecturers. We analyze the processes for bachelor, master, and PhD theses and bachelor and master seminars. Consequently, we suggest process templates to cover these processes. The process templates are implemented as an enhanced IT web application, named ThesesDB, utilizing modern web technologies and used in our lectures. We evaluate our approach by the Computer System Usability and USE Questionnaire.

Fußnoten
1
We are aware that lecture assessments are a increasingly used instrument to establish the client (student) assessment of the service provider (lecturer), however, at least in Germany, the consequences of bad or even good assessments for a lecturer are very limited.
 
3
The application process is currently not implemented in the ThesesDB. However, there are no technical limitations to extend ThesesDB with this functionality.
