This article was migrated. The article was marked as recommended. The idea of this paper is to offer a blueprint, with that facilitators have a guide to set up a complete digital teaching scenario according to the latest insights of didactical research. The corona pandemic forced higher education institutions all around the world to radically shift their curricula from a mix of face-to-face and remote teaching methods to a fully remote curriculum. Though challenging, this time provides opportunities to implement new educational methods and improve the quality of digital teaching. The classical concept of the inverted classroom was modified to meet the special needs of online settings. The proposed online Inverted Classroom Model (oICM) includes the following phases: (1) pre-phase, (2) self-learning-phase, (3) Synchronous online face-to-face phase, (4) transfer-phase, (5) evaluation. Recommendations and potential tools are provided for each phase. The oICM is an innovative and easy to use approach to shape digital teaching and learning processes during and after the CoVid19 pandemic. This blueprint is developed by the committee "Digitalization" of the German Association for Medical Education (GMA) for facilitators without any prior experience with the ICM, but also for those who already teach in a traditional ICM.
