MODULE DESCRIPTION
This e-learning module is designed to teach teachers in primary education a differentiated knowledge of the situation of migrant and refugee children and their parents and to provide information on school and education in the countries of origin (using the example of Afghanistan and Syria). Different expectations and assumptions regarding the school system and the reality of life of migrant families often lead to challenges and misunderstandings in the context of school. This module places a special focus on the acquisition of competences for a broader understanding of the circumstances of the children’s origins, the flight and the living situation in the host country and provides information on traditional and cultural differences and similarities.
