The winners of 2016:

DaFür – Deutsch als Fremdsprache für Integrationen (German as a foreign language for integration) is a digital programme for language learning, which teaches basic language skills for coping with everyday situations. It was developed for three languages - Arabic, Kurdish and Farsi - as only little material is avilable for these languages although spoken by many immigrants. The portal contains online modules and numerous apps covering everyday life in Germany.

The project eVideo – Gastgewerbe (eVideo - catering industry) is aimed at people with low reading, writing and calculating skills, who are interested in working in the catering industry. A lack of skills causes major problems - learning programmes are hardly available or not suitable. In addition, work routines leave little time for the integration of learning programmes. eVideo – Gastgewerbe closes the gap: Time and place learning can be chosen individually.

jury member Dr. Lutz Goertz (mmb Institut GmbH) (from left to right).

Motivation is maintained with an exciting story. 17 workplace-related exercises ensure a concrete reference to the work routine. Additional offline material provide the opportunity of developing integrative qualification concepts in terms of blended learning, which are suitable for the individual target group. The programme is aimed at employees in the catering industry, but also at (potential) trainees and immigrants. The jury members Lutz Goertz and Katrin Kraus emphasised the "innovative, adult compatibel and work-related" character.

 

The plattform integration.oncampus.de, initiated by the University of Lübeck and its subsidiary oncampus, and the open online programme #DEU4ARAB by Prof. Dr. Jürgen Handke, University of Marburg, are one of the first education programmes for refugees by German universities. Both programmes are quickly accessible, 100 percent online and taken the increasing digitilisation of a global society into account. Consequently, they put the emphasis on the refugees' needs.

as well as jury member Jun.-Prof. Dr. Matthias Rohs (from left to right).

 

As a digital platform for learning, integration.oncampus.de offers a quick, flexible and easy access to the German university system, thus supporting the professional integration of immigrants in Germany. The programmes include various areas as well as German language courses such as pronounciation training for Arabic (Syrian) German teachers, the massive open online course #DEU4ARAB. integration.oncampus is, according to the laudators Dr. Jochen Robes and Jun.-Prof.Dr. Matthias Rohs, a product, "which is particularly suited for the refugees' needs and therefore has a wide impact."
