This means that a problem that is already challenging, namely planning, executing, and controlling logistical processes, gets even more complex and requires aspects of systems thinking to incorporate environmental and social impacts. Classical approaches of teaching, e.g. lectures with presentations and short exercises on closed problems, do not do justice to the complexity and intricacies of the topic sustainability. In such a context, projectbased learning (PBL) where students do group work on open-ended problems with real-world complexity seems to be a more adequate means to teach the subject. The paper describes a PBL course in which students worked on projects to conceptualize micro-depots for parcel delivery in different areas of D{\"u}sseldorf. A micro-depot is a temporary storage location in a city from which parcels can be delivered by cargo bikes. The aim was to locate the micro-depot, design the delivery routes, check the feasibility, and calculate the reduction of greenhouse gases and other emissions. The course was taught in cooperation with a partner from the courier, express, and parcel delivery industry. The paper describes the experiences with the course and gives recommendations for a successful implementation of PBL in courses on sustainability.}, subject = {Ingenieurstudium}, language = {en} } @techreport{DeckertKretschmarPlagge2024, author = {Deckert, Carsten and Kretschmar, Dominik and Plagge, Christoph}, title = {Auf einen gemeinsamen Nenner gebracht? - Reporting der Treibhausgas-Emissionen der Logistikunternehmen in Deutschland}, address = {D{\"u}sseldorf}, organization = {Hochschule D{\"u}sseldorf}, issn = {2627-8375}, doi = {10.20385/opus4-4313}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:hbz:due62-opus-43130}, year = {2024}, subject = {Logistik}, language = {de} } @inproceedings{DeckertMohya2022, author = {Deckert, Carsten and Mohya, Ahmed}, title = {Self-directed versus guided learning - searching for the sweet spot with lesson activities in Moodle}, series = {SEFI 50th Annual conference of The European Society for Engineering Education.

Online learning takes place between the poles of self-direction by the student and guidance by the lecturer. In this paper a first-semester course in industrial economics for engineers, which was taught in the self-directed learning format of flipped classroom, was enhanced with lesson activities in the Learning Management System (LMS) Moodle as a means of guided learning with student-content interaction. The paper describes the design and the evaluation of the lesson activities. For the evaluation a student survey to gather the opinions and self-assessments of the students was conducted, and statistical data from Moodle on the performance of the students were collected. The results of the student survey show an overall positive evaluation of the lesson activities by the students who participated in the lesson activities. Furthermore, the results of the statistical data about the students' performance show a relation between participation in the lesson activities and exam success. As a caveat, however, the results also show that the majority of the students chose not to participate in the lesson activities.}, subject = {Selbstgesteuertes Lernen}, language = {en} } @unpublished{DeckertSchomakerAlbiez2025, author = {Deckert, Carsten and Schomaker, Rahel and Albiez, Philipp}, title = {Social Capital and National Innovativeness - The Influence of Trust and Tolerance on the National Capacity to Innovate}, series = {Qeios}, journal = {Qeios}, publisher = {Qeios}, issn = {2632-3834}, doi = {10.32388/646CQI}, year = {2025}, abstract = {While national innovativeness is of pivotal relevance for economic development, so far, relatively little attention has been paid to the social drivers of innovativeness.

However, in teaching academic writing, lecturers have to deal with the two challenges of decreasing reading competence in young people and increasing use of artificial intelligence (AI) in reading and writing assignments. In engineering in particular, literacy understood as reading and writing competence is essential - whether for understanding complex tasks, analysing case studies or dealing with technical documents such as the product requirements document. Against this background, it is crucial to develop strategies and discuss modern approaches to specifically promote students' reading and writing skills and thus create an essential basis for successful scientific work and problem-solving.
