With the update of the linkage between Stud.IP as the platform for organisation and management and ILIAS as a system for learning management, ILIAS accounts are now automatically generated.

Creating an Account

Users with access to Stud.IP automatically possess access to the learning management system ILIAS as well.
If that access to ILIAS does not exist, it will be generated as soon as one of the connections in Stud.IP is used:

• access via “tools” > “ILIAS”
• access via “ILIAS-Lernobjekte” (Learning object in MLU-ILIAS) in a course that uses the learning platform

Login credentials

• regarding all those ILIAS accounts that have been automatically generated after August 2022:

Your login credentials are the same as your credentials for Stud.IP.
This applies only if you have not changed your password for ILIAS yourself! In that case, your login credentials are your 5-digit user ID and your own set password.

• for all accounts that already existed before the update:

Your login data for both Stud.IP as well as ILIAS has not changed with the update.
This applies only if the password has not been changed in the meantime.
>> What do I need to do if I did change my password in ILIAS? Additionally, users with the same account name for both ILIAS and Stud.IP and with an activated connection between the two systems can log into ILIAS with their password for Stud.IP.

Course on ILIAS

Different form the previous version of the connection between Stud.IP and ILIAS, single items such as exercises, tests, learning modules, or polls, cannot be listed on Stud.IP any longer. Participants of the Stud.IP course can only see the link to ILIAS.

Single learning items cannot be generated on Stud.IP and connected to ILIAS either. The content for each course can only be created on the learning platform and linked to the respective course on Stud.IP.

Courses set offline

Courses that have been set offline can be linked with Stud.IP courses. Students, however, will not be able to see them of Stud.IP. They will only get the message that no learning objects are currently assigned to that course.

Lecturers and tutors see the link to the offline course ‘’‘without’’’ the message that the it has been set offline.

If you wish to check what content your students are able to see you can use the student’s view simulation of your course. You can activate it under “Verwaltung”/“Administration” > “Aktionen”/”Actions” > “Studierendenansicht simulieren”/ “simulate student’s view”
