Campus news - The Technical University of Munich (TUM) has launched an open online teacher training portal. The modules of the "Toolbox Lehrerbildung" are specifically designed to prepare the user for school practice of the STEM subjects with among other things videos from the classroom. The platform is available at no cost to teacher training and continuing education institutions as well as to (future) teachers.

Accordingly, the new teacher training platform "Toolbox Lehrerbildung" conveys important educational content in a manner that corresponds with classroom practice.
