  mobility.
• Advantages:
      –   Encourage students to make mobility periods
      –   Bringing students closer to the new educational institution
      –   Reduce emotional obstacles to a mobility period
      –   The student can compare universities or evaluate materials 
          Increased confidence

      Teaser courses
    As a student in a foreign university I had the
    opportunity to assist in a teaser course of
    the subject Artificial Intelligence. The teaser
    course consisted of attending a free seminar
    for every student that wanted to enroll it.
    During the seminar I was able to attend
    different workshops presented by the
    professors of Artificial Intelligence where
    students were able to see real world
    examples of what can be done with Artificial
    Intelligence, as well as an introduction
    presentation done by the coordinator of this
    subject. This seminar was the main reason
    why I was motivated to enroll into this
    subject because previously, I didn’t have any
    knowledge of what artificial intelligence
    was.

She is TUM is positive. interested in study a very specific course at Therefore Elena registers in OCW course and TUM, but to register the course it is combines her formal studies at home mandatory to have deep knowledge in the university with this OCW course in order to area of () and at least she has got a finish in summer just on time the minimum number of credits in the topic. application deadline at TUM. She is worried because at this time it is not Elena sends her application to TUM possible for her to accomplish this including the results of the OCW course. She requirement at home. is eager to get the admission although she is Elena has not time to acquire the requested a bit nervous. She gets the letter of knowledge within formal lectures in order admission from TUM to take the specific for her to be admitted at TUM. She find out course she wants to deep in. that TUM offers OCW courses in the field Finally, in Germany, Elena does not have she needs to improve, so she thought that if understanding problems to proper follow she take this course in parallel to her studies the course because her knowledge about and go on till summer, she will likely get the the topic is really high and thus is allows her knowledge and the credits required at TUM. to get a high mark in the course. with the support of the Lifelong Learning opencourseware.eu Programme of the European Union 21

The teaser course consisted of attending a free seminar for every student that wanted to enroll it. During the seminar I was able to attend different workshops presented by the professors of Artificial Intelligence where students were able to see real world examples of what can be done with Artificial Intelligence, as well as an introduction presentation done by the coordinator of this subject. This seminar was the main reason why I was motivated to enroll into this subject because previously, I didn’t have any knowledge of what artificial intelligence was. with the support of the Lifelong Learning opencourseware.eu Programme of the European Union 23
