In hydrological modelling classically educators at the MSc and PhD level teach their students using the one model they personally are familiar with. The eWaterCycle platform for Open and FAIR hydrological modelling was developed to allow researchers to more easily work with each other’s models and data. Recently we have started to use eWaterCycle in our MSc level teaching and made our teaching material available as Open Educational Resources using the novel ‘teachbooks’ framework for interactive online educational material. Using eWaterCycle students are able to explore their own hydrological research questions and answer those using models developed at different institutes. The teachbook framework allows us to easily share this educational material with any teacher in the world.
