optimize our workflow online. We want to show you that even in times of Coronavirus it
is possible to overcome distances and master problems together. So, let's give it a try
and find out whether we should go online or offline to get better ideas for approaching
solutions!

Those are the two tools we are going to work with:

 ZOOM                                 MIRO

Before we can start, however, a few precautions have to be taken. No worries, this will not
be time-consuming, there are mainly two things we would like you to pay attention to:
