Good to know

Using the (STiNE) Lecture ID, students are automatically registered as course participants when logging in with their UHH Login and their user ID (e.g., baa1234). The course subsequently appears under My Courses and is also visible in the catalog. Access via the (STiNE) Lecture ID allows for automatic assignment without manual import. If course access is required exclusively via the lecture ID, it is sufficient to set the learning resource share status to Only members of this learning resource (owners, coaches, participants). For access by persons who are not booked into the lecture via STiNE, a booking method can be set up additionally.

How to proceed

  1. In your course, select Settings under Administration in the toolbar menu.
  2. Log in to STiNE at the same time and find the (STiNE) lecture for which you want to offer an OpenOLAT course.
  3. Copy the (STiNE) Lecture ID from STiNE in the line Veranstaltungsdetails (Event details) on the right (e.g., 391265184237051) and paste this number in OpenOLAT under Administration -> Settings -> Info into the field (STiNE) Lecture ID and save your changes at the bottom of the page.

    • You can also enter the Lecture ID into the (STiNE) Lecture ID field when creating the course. When creating a new course, the "Course Info" page appears first, which you can fill with the corresponding information.
  4. If you additionally require a booking method, set this up now as well.
  5. Now select Settings under Administration in the toolbar menu and select the option Private under Share (Freigabe).
  6. Close the access configuration with the red cross (top right).

(STiNE) Lecture ID is not the lecture number

The (STiNE) Lecture ID is not the lecture number (LV-Nummer) prominently displayed next to the title of your lecture. Since the lecture number does not change from semester to semester for identical courses, it is not suitable for the unique assignment of cohorts. Therefore, the Lecture ID, which is unique across all semesters, is used.

Link multiple Lecture IDs

If you want to link multiple Lecture IDs to the course, separate the IDs when entering them only with a comma and without spaces. Alternative spellings will cause this method of adding participants to your course to fail.

Synchronization with the (STiNE) Lecture ID is no live import

The synchronization of the (STiNE) Lecture ID does not offer a live import of the participants of a lecture. The (STiNE) Lecture ID is transferred to the students' profile on the hour after the registration phase in STiNE has ended. When students log in to OpenOlat afterwards for the next time, they bring the (STiNE) LV ID with them and are assigned to the corresponding course(s) and only then become visible there – so students appear gradually in the member list, depending on when they log in again, and not all at once.

Removing individual participants despite (STiNE) Lecture ID

Removing individual participants despite (STiNE) Lecture ID: As long as the Lecture ID is specified in the (STiNE) Lecture ID field, all people booked into the course via STiNE will be synchronized back into the course even if removed manually. If you want to manage participants manually, remove the LV ID. Students already booked in will remain in the course.
