Tandem.MINT goes Online!

Zum Schutz aller Be­tei­lig­ten pla­nen die Pro­jekt­lei­ter daher, das Spracht­an­dem aus­schließ­lich on­line unter Ver­wen­dung von Tools wie z.B. Skype, Zoom oder Fa­ce­Time statt­fin­den zu las­sen. In­fol­ge der Ver­schie­bung des Se­mes­ter­be­ginns durch die Hoch­schul­lei­tung haben Stu­die­ren­de nun noch bis ein­schließ­lich 19. April Zeit, sich für das Pro­gramm an­zu­mel­den. Ins­be­son­de­re In­co­ming-Stu­die­ren­de und in­ter­na­tio­na­le Re­gel­stu­die­ren­de sind herz­lich ein­ge­la­den, am Tandem.​MINT teil­zu­neh­men.

Due to the cur­rent si­tua­ti­on cau­sed by the spread of the new Coro­na virus in Ger­ma­ny, Tandem.​MINT can­not be of­fe­red in its usual form in the sum­mer se­mes­ter 2020. In­s­tead, in order to keep all par­ti­ci­pants safe, the Tandem.​MINT-Team plans on trans­for­ming Tandem.​MINT into an on­line-on­ly offer using tools such as Skype, Zoom or Fa­ce­Time. As they are cur­rent­ly wor­king on a sui­ta­ble so­lu­ti­on, fur­ther in­for­ma­ti­on will fol­low soon. Due to the start of the sum­mer term being shif­ted to April 20, they have de­ci­ded to post­po­ne the re­gis­tra­ti­on dead­line to April 19 ac­cor­dingly. This way, more stu­dents can be made aware of this uni­que op­por­tu­ni­ty to take part in an on­line tan­dem pro­gram. After April 19, they will match the tan­dem part­ners and in­form all ap­p­li­cants about the re­sults. In any case stu­dents will re­cei­ve a no­ti­fi­ca­ti­on, most li­kely by the end of April. Du­ring these chal­len­ging times the Tandem.​MINT-Team aims to fa­ci­lia­te get­ting in touch with fel­low stu­dents and the­re­by en­han­cing lan­gua­ge but also in­ter­cul­tu­ral skills from a safe dis­tan­ce.
