What you need to know

The project tool integrated in OpenOlat is primarily a tool for project documentation (not for project planning). It is course-independent and cannot be evaluated directly in OpenOlat.

Possible scenarios for the project tool are

  • Projects of a learning group,
  • longer individual projects (e.g. dissertations),
  • learning diaries,
  • project management courses.
