This training module has been developed for the use in a lecture and for the use during your self-study or homework. Therefore it provides on the one hand an opportunity to demonstrate a timetable example in a lecture and on the other hand you can use it to recapitulate the basics of time distance diagrams on your own. Furthermore, you can explore the specified dynamic processes in your time distance diagrams by visualising them.

In both use cases, lecture and self-study, different requirements are given for the display and the functionality of the training module. For this reason the training module provides two different views, the lecture view and the self-study view.

The lecture view provides assistance during a lecture on time distance diagrams. This view supports the demonstration of timetable examples specified by time distance diagrams. The focus is on the visualisation and the dynamic processes of a timetable example. If you switch over to the lecture view, the training module shows you the full screen representation of your current timetable example. The diagram editor and the map editor are not available anymore and you are not able to modify the current time distance diagram or the corresponding map.

The self-study view provides assistance with the autonomous learning of the basics of time distance diagrams. If you switch over to the self-study view the diagram editor and the map editor are available. Within this view you can create new timetable examples or edit existing ones. Combined with the possiblity to execute and visualise the specified timetables, you are able to explore the resulting behavior. In addition, this view serves an online help which consists of this introduction chapter and a set of tutorials. You could activate or inactivate this online help by the submenu Help in the main menu.

In the following subsection you will learn something about the composition of the lecture and the self-study view and how you can toggle between them.
