What is OnlyOffice?
OnlyOffice is an open-source online office software that allows collaborative and synchronous work on documents (texts, spreadsheets and presentations). The collaboration software is functionally similar to "Google Docs". OnlyOffice is hosted on our own servers and therefore does not pose a data protection risk.
OnlyOffice offers the possibility to work synchronously on a text, table or presentation document individually or with several people. The respective mutual changes are displayed synchronously, i.e. in real time in the browser. You can create a new document via the ILIAS plug-in or upload a document that you have already prepared in advance. OnlyOffice is highly compatible with the common MS Office formats (doc, docx, xls, ppt) as well as other formats such as Libre Office (odt, odp, ods).

The software "OnlyOffice" has been made available for teaching at the University of Freiburg for the years 2022-2024 with funds from the project 4D - 4 Dimensions of Digital and Didactic Development funded by the Foundation Innovation in Higher Education. With the provision of the software, the much desired function of working together on documents is made possible for teaching and learning purposes at the University of Freiburg.
OnlyOffice has been docked onto the learning platform via the ILIAS plug-in, so that teachers can create OnlyOffice as an object directly in their ILIAS courses. Of course, OnlyOffice is also available for use in student learning groups and for the continuing education platform.

Note: OnlyOffice is available in all courses of the summer semester as well as in newly created courses. If the object is missing in a course, please contact us with the direct link to the ILIAS course at: ilias@rz.uni-freiburg.de.
What can OnlyOffice be used for?
You can use OnlyOffice to have students work individually or collaboratively on text, spreadsheet or presentation documents. Basic didactic scenarios are for example:
- Collaborative writing in a shared document (text document)
- Collaborative working on tasks (text document)
- Collaborative data collection for research projects (table document)
- Preparing presentations (presentation document)
There are no limits to your creativity. You can, for example, also use presentation slides for other purposes such as a whiteboard. This also makes it possible to work together with "cards" - similar to a pinboard.
How does it work?
