About this app
There are 6.2 million adults in Germany who cannot read the display board at the train station or a leaflet. They are considered to have little or no literacy.* Perhaps because a learning disability was not recognized in childhood. Or because they were unable to attend school regularly. Many people with a migrant background also lack the reading and writing skills in German that are so important for participation in society. A common reason is that they do not know the Latin script.
6.2 million with more or less pronounced illiteracy, which also means: 6.2 million people who have hardly any opportunity to actively participate in our society. We think that something has to change. Those affected must be able to take advantage of educational opportunities – without any shame.
This is where we come in with IRMGARD: With the help of the app, adults can learn to read and write.
With IRMGARD, users can train their reading and writing skills in a total of nine levels with more than 250 exercises. No previous knowledge is required.
In addition, IRMGARD contains exercise units for advanced users with tips and tricks for work and everyday life. These were created as part of the WORTSCHATZ educational project funded by the Saxon Development Bank (SAB) and the European Social Fund (ESF) in collaboration with the IB Mitte Dresden, the IB Hochschule Berlin, as well as participants and teachers of literacy courses.
IRMGARD is
• 100% free
• Can be used on all Android devices from operating system 5.0
• also suitable for short learning units in between
• Learn without feeling ashamed
Using videos, animations and audio clips, language teacher Irmgard Schwiderski accompanies the path to reading and writing skills through varied exercises. At the end of the course, users will be able to write a letter independently.
