Unser Angebot
Globally, 775 million adults lack minimum literacy skills (UNESCO), this being one of the biggest obstacles to stable employment. These people cannot be trained for new skills, get paid less than their peers, and therefore cannot ensure education for their children. Amazingly, they have also embraced smartphones and have found ingenious ways of using them.
For the first time in history, we have the possibility of eliminating illiteracy, with the help of technology. You can make this vision happen.
You will help steer the project in the right direction, grow a passionate open source community, and set the benchmark for what edtech can be.
Zielgruppe
Phase 1
Newly arrived refugees in Munich, who are primary illiterate (=people who never went to school), and want to learn the German language.
Phase 2
Further expansion to regions where illiteracy rates are drastically higher will follow (e.g. French-speaking Africa, English-speaking Africa).
Herausforderungen
• Measure the learning progress of the users
• Explain the app and its features to people who cannot read texts
• Teaching users with whom you do not have a common language, are illiterate, and largely digital-inferface-illiterate
• Finding new interactive ways of teaching basic reading and writing skills
