At this department we mainly use Whiteboard and Campus Management.

Campus Management is the official platform of the university to collect and document all the progress and achievements towards your degree. For that it is mandatory to sign up for your courses each semester there, so your achievement can be documented there at all. If you don't sign up there, it is not possible to document your achievement for the specific course there.  

Whiteboard however, is one of the Learning Management Platforms we use and is a tool to have access to Resources and Materials for that course (e.g. notes from the lectures, exercise sheets, other material, literature, ...) and to register for a specific tutorial session. It is not mandatory to sign up here for the course, but we highly recommend this to stay updated. Sometimes there is a not binding registration for exams there as well but it is only used to plan the capacities or the time slots.

Sometimes some of the other courses at this department use other platforms instead of Whiteboard like Moodle or Blackboard. Your lecturers are always telling you what they will use in the first lecture. Other departments mainly use the other platforms.
