What is the Demokratie-MOOC?
The Demokratie-MOOC (DeMOOC) represents a curriculum for democracy education, whereby the complete teaching and learning materials are made available. Thus, on the one hand, the MOOC serves the further education of all interested persons, multipliers, course creators, teachers or (social) educators. On the other hand, the MOOC also provides materials and methods so that participants also feel motivated and able to develop and offer courses, lessons or projects on civic education.
Who is this course aimed for?
The MOOC “Demokratie und Partizipation – Politische Beteiligung und Teilhabe in der Alltagspraxis” is aimed at teachers and multipliers who would like to delve deeper into the topic of participation in the context of democracy education in order to integrate it into their educational work. For this purpose, the course not only offers a professional overview of forms and models of political participation – especially with reference to everyday practice – but also provides materials and methods for teaching. Thus, on the other hand, it addresses learners who want to get to know different aspects of the topic as well as concrete (political) participation possibilities.

By completing the DeMOOC, a closer understanding of democracy, politics and society on different political levels should be developed in order to strengthen one’s own access to politics and to be able to experience one’s own active part in the political system.
On the one hand, it is necessary to build up a certain basic knowledge of democracy, politics, political processes and social structures in order to be able to put this knowledge into practice and integrate it into one’s own living environment in a second step. The self-perception as active and responsible citizens is strengthened in this respect, as well as the relevant knowledge and skills expanded. This knowledge should also have a positive influence on the future course design, pedagogical work or teaching.The in-depth course “Demokratie und Partizipation – Politische Beteiligung und Teilhabe in der Alltagspraxis” offers participants a specialized, in-depth treatment of content from the subject area of civic education, democracy building and participation. The MOOC is based on a broad concept of participation that goes beyond conventional forms of participation such as participation in elections or instruments of direct democracy such as petitions for referendums, public opinion polls or referendums. The aim is thus to tap into different forms of participation in order to be able to perceive political participation as part of one’s own everyday practice.
Tujuan Kursus
The goal of the DeMOOC is to strengthen civic
education in adult education, in extracurricular and school education, but also
among people generally interested. Thus, the DeMOOC is particularly suitable
for multipliers, course planners, teachers, social workers, educators and for
all persons interested in the topic of civic education. The programs in the “Initiative
Erwachsenenbildung” as well as many other courses and offers in the range of
adult education can also benefit from the DeMOOC.
In the context of the in-depth course, the participants deal with different approaches and courses of action in relation to the topics of participation and involvement. The aim is to provide the participants with comprehensive perspectives and reflections on the diverse possibilities of political and social participation in and for democracies. In this way, they are strengthened to grasp the importance of everyday cultural and political spaces of negotiation for democracy, which in turn supports their self-image as an active part of a democratically constituted society and politics. In addition to a basic factual understanding of participation processes and modalities, the participants of the MOOC also receive impulses and material for the thematization of this complex of topics in their own educational work. For this purpose, didactic basics for adult education are offered.
