Take your teaching to the next level with the newly developed PhiloWelt app!
Whether in ethics, philosophy, or values and norms—the app is suitable for students in grades 5 through 10 at all types of schools. Thanks to dynamic learning materials, each lesson is individually tailored—based on student input.
The app is also ideal for international preparatory classes (IVK): All content is language-sensitive and available in German and English—including audio clips, learning texts, exercises, and AI assessments.
5 TOPICS WITH 9 EXERCISES EACH
• Knowledge—The World of Media
• The Self—Me and My Life
• Responsibility—Humanity and Nature
• Relationships—Community or Egoism
• Justice—Structures of Social Life
CLASS MODE—PHILOSOPHING TOGETHER
The teacher creates a digital classroom using a teacher code. Students join via a room code and work together on a topic in four phases:
INTRODUCTION — An image and an AI-generated audio clip introduce the topic to the class. Students type in their initial thoughts, which are then combined in real time to form a shared guiding question.
LEARNING TEXT — Tailored learning texts introduce the question, demonstrate its relevance both past and present, and present two opposing viewpoints — adapted to the school type and grade level.
TASKS — Three automatically generated tasks at three difficulty levels (recall, explain, evaluate) challenge students to think critically.
RESULT — Every answer is evaluated — with specific tips for improvement. The best answers are recognized for the class, while all others are displayed anonymously — fair and motivating. On their final attempt, students can view a model answer if they wish. And: The best result counts — a new attempt never diminishes the achievement already attained.
Ideal for cooperative learning and engaging classroom discussions.
``` DIGITAL LESSON BOOKLET
All results from class mode are automatically saved in the digital lesson booklet — including learning texts, your own answers, and AI assessments. Nothing gets lost.
