From August to December 2020, a cooperation project took place with the Centre for Modern Indian Studies (CeMIS) and University Didactics. Supported by the German Academic Exchange Service (DAAD), an English-language online workshop program was developed, which was aimed at teachers from the 14 Indian partner universities and institutions of CeMIS as well as teachers from Cemis.The program focused on topics such as “Diversity and Intercultural Settings” and “Teaching and Learning in Digital Settings” in order to meet the specific interests of the teachers. The program benefited greatly from the subject-specific, location-specific and cultural characteristics and experiences of all participants. This was evident not only in language differences (also due to different mother tongues among Indian students), but also in different teaching and learning approaches.
