Description
As part of the Erasmus Plus project, workshops were held with 70 Arabic-speaking tutors and trainers in Germany, Italy, Turkey, and Sweden, from 2017 to 2019. Together, a training concept and a training tool for teachers, educators and volunteers were developed to support newly immigrated children with innovative pedagogical methods, such as self-organised learning. Main objectives of the project were: - Introduction of the concept of self-organised learning (SOL) to native-speaking mentors. - Conception of a workshop for the further training of refugee teachers. - Implementation and optimisation of the training in different European countries. - Publication of the training concept for free use by other projects in the form of interactive training modules: Basic Attitudes, Trauma, Inclusion & Exclusion, Compowerment, Motivation, Self-Concept, Self-regulated Learning. The methodology was based on the design of SOL by the University of Schwäbisch Gmünd and on the user-led development of a training concept, as well as on the cocreation of workshops, including constant further improvement during the transnational workshop series.

Motivation for the submission
One of the consortium partners is the German organisation Back on Track e.V. which we know and value for their efforts in self-regulated Arabic mother-tongue learning in Berlin. In 2019, the project was awarded a "Success Story" by the PAD (Pedagogical Exchange Service of the Conference of Ministers of Education Germany) due to its special quality. What is more, the cocreation methodology is in synch with the IMMERSE approach
