Interdisciplinary Guidelines

Interdisciplinary guildelines apply to all subjects and all language versions of serlo.org. They deal with tech-related requirements (e.g. rules for structuring the taxonomy, requirements for the optimization of the search engine or rules that ensure accessibility), values and basic principles (e.g. the use of free licenses), rules that ensure uniformity among the subjects (e.g. the choice of color) and respectful behavior as established in the code of conduct.

These guidelines define how the different formats of learning materials are standardized and used for the subjects on serlo.org (e.g. the layout of a solution for a mathematical problem). Furthermore, they provide subject-didactic input and specify quality standards for the subject.
