Location & approach

By Car

The campus of Dortmund University is located near the Dortmund West motorway junction, where the A45 Sauerland line crosses the B1/A40 Ruhr expressway. The Dortmund-Eichlinghofen exit on the A45 leads to the South Campus, the Dortmund-Dorstfeld exit on the A40 leads to the North Campus. The university is signposted at both exits.

By public transport

The "Dortmund Universität" S-Bahn station is located directly on the North Campus. From there, the S-Bahn line S1 runs every 15 or 30 minutes to Dortmund main station and in the opposite direction to Düsseldorf main station via Bochum, Essen and Duisburg. The university can also be reached by bus lines 445, 447 and 462. Timetable information can be found on the homepage of the Rhine-Ruhr Transport Association, and DSW21 also offer an interactive route network map.

By 'H-Bahn'

The H-Bahn, an elevated railway, is one of the landmarks of the TU Dortmund. Line 1 runs every 10 minutes between Dortmund Eichlinghofen and the Technology Centre via Campus South and Dortmund University S, while Line 2 commutes every 5 minutes between Campus North and Campus South. It covers this distance in two minutes.

By plane

From Dortmund Airport, it takes just over 20 minutes to get to Dortmund Central Station with the AirportExpress and from there to the university with the S-Bahn. Düsseldorf Airport, about 60 kilometres away, offers a wider range of international flight connections and can be reached directly by S-Bahn from the university station.

Online moderation practices meet repair practices

Vortrag von Ronja Trischler am 24.04.2024 an der RUB

Poster of the Workshop "Replace or repair? Moderating online advice on how to take care of broken things" by Ronja Trischler — Poster zum Workshop mit Ronja Trischler an der RUB am 24.04.2024

Dr. Ronja Trischler spricht am 24.04.2024 von 14-16 Uhr auf einer gemeinsamen Veranstaltung des RUSTlab und des SFB 1567 Virtuelle Lebenswelten an der Ruhr-Universität Bochum zum Thema "Replace or repair? Moderating online advice on how to take care of broken things." Ort: Ruhr-Universität Bochum MB 4/165

Replace or repair? For participants in repair initiatives, this is a central question when it comes to giving advice on how to take care of broken things. When this question is posed online – in the hope of quick and location-independent help –, the conditions of its discussion change: instead of perhaps examining the objects in question manually, participants describe and analyse them in written posts or photographs. Importantly for my talk, they also become the subject of moderation, revealing the relevance of practical relationships between those giving and those receiving advice. While moderation is a cultural technique with a long history, online it has become a widespread, often controversial practice, including automated, often invisible processes of ordering and deleting known as content moderation. In my talk I am going to reconstruct moderation practices in an online repair advice group and, on a more theoretical level, explore their embeddedness in the repair practices.
