Courses, independent learning resources, groups, and catalogue categories can be marked as favourites.

Favourites can be used as a fast and targeted access to content. In the Portlet Favourites on the home page of the learning platform and in the tab Teach & Learn under Favourites, you can directly open the desired content with one click. In addition, you can also sort various lists by favourites.
