About event
Goal: Development of blended learning materials in tandem partnerships.
The concept of cooperation: Tandem teams for the development and implementation of Blended Learning materials are established at the beginning of the academic year, where topics, modules and working methods are defined. The cooperation between German and Kyrgyz teachers will take place in three phases throughout the academic year. In the first stage (preparatory), the tandem partners work remotely, online, with the help of various electronic resources, and discuss the program and work plan, set terms and conditions of joint work. In the second phase (main phase), the tandem partners meet in Zwickau as part of the professional development program. During their stay in Zwickau, the tandem partners work closely on the implementation of assigned projects and develop materials, put them on the Moodle portal, and analyze the results. In the third phase (reflexive), the Kyrgyz tandem partners implement the learning materials and use them in their training. The exchange between the tandem partners will also be supported in the third stage using online tools (email, Skype, etc.). The results of the collaboration will be presented at IT conferences.
Funding: Due to the Corona pandemic, tandem cooperation in the summer term (from 15.03.2021 until 04.07.2021) will be organized digitally and the supervision by German professors will be conducted via online tools such as skype, zoom, redmine, google, e-mails. Kyrgyz lecturers will be granted a monthly scholarship of 600,00€ during the main phase of the cooperation.
