Use of an online learning environment in face-to-face and distance learning - comparison of system usability and opinion on teaching

Despite the strategy "Education in the Digital World", already formulated in 2017, and the aim of the Standing Conference of the Ministers of Education and Cultural Affairs of the Lander in the Federal Republic of Germany to include digital learning environments in the classroom, study results of the past years, especially during the COVID 19 pandemic, showed that there is a discrepancy between the aim of sound digitalization in the classroom and classroom practice. In view of this deficit, an online learning environment for the introduction of the differentiated atomic model was developed, tested in practice, and evaluated. It was used in face-to-face and distance learning scenario. The data obtained on usability and opinion on learning with the learning environment show significant, gender-specific differences.
