That’s me!

I started this block as a part of the course „Digitally Competent Educators“. It includes the weekly tasks and some reflections of the course material. Whenever I find something interesting I also post it here. So basically this block will be more like an e-portfolio.

My name is Katharina and I was born in 1979, so I am not a digital native, but I try my best to keep up … especially in my professional background. I work in occupational rehabilitation. That means I teach English and Communication/German to adults, who train for a new profession. The cannot perform their original learned profession anymore because of different reasons (physical health problems, mental health problems, social limitations, overcome addictions etc.). Their ages range from 19 to 50 and they come from all over Germany. They can have any school education – ranging from a school leaving certificate of year 8 up to a Bacherlor degree. Most of them have a German background, but more and more participants come from different countries and German is their second or third language.

As you can see, my participants are really diverse. Therefore, my work is challenging and I never get bored.

I prefer working in preparation classes, which happen before professional education, as well as in classes with future real estate agents and tourism and leisure agents.

Module 3

After some disappointment in module 2 it was time to continue with module 3. It is challinging due to my lack of time, but I am confident finishing this module, too.

After some individual work, it was time for group work in the this and the previous week. Although I am quite busy these days, I really enjoyed working together and participating in this part.
