FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What topics can I offer focus courses on?
Focus courses

Within the main topics that we have set for the theme months, you are basically free to choose your own topics. The course should be particularly appealing to pupils from our target group, i.e. educationally disadvantaged pupils, i.e. pupils who have less access to educational opportunities for financial, linguistic or cultural reasons.


What prior knowledge can I assume from pupils ?
Focus courses

At Lern-Fair , we primarily address pupils from educationally disadvantaged backgrounds. This can mean that the pupils students may have different requirements in terms of their media skills, language skills or knowledge of the world.
When creating the course, you have the option of limiting your course to certain year groups.
If you want to require specific prior knowledge, you should indicate this in the course description.
In practice, however, it is very difficult to achieve a uniform level of knowledge, which is why you should take this into account when leading a course.

Who can lead a focus course?
Focus courses

Anyone with basic expertise in the subject area of the respective focus month and the ability to communicate content digitally and engage in an interactive exchange with pupils . So far, many focus courses have been led by students, teachers, university staff or members of associations and other institutions.
