Help me build better learning materials.
Good didactic materials cost money — manipulatives, differentiated reading texts, printing costs for research material. Via goodcrowd I collect for specific purchases that flow directly into my learning support and school research pilots.

hands-on
Hi!
Good material often decides whether a child gets that „click" — or keeps failing the task.
Much of what really helps in learning support — hands-on material, texts at three levels, cleanly printed research series — I currently pay for out of my own pocket. Through this fund you can directly help carry what lands on my desk next and reaches the children. No anonymous donation pot: you see what it's for — and on goodcrowd, what came of it.

What the fund is for right now
These materials are next on the list. You can see the live status of the collection and individual contributions on goodcrowd.
Differentiated reading texts (lower secondary)
Curriculum-aligned reading texts at three levels for German support — worth their weight in gold when reading is hard.
≈ €80
Printing costs for research material
High-quality printing of the EVA-KI series at class size — for pilot use in schools where I co-research.
≈ €60
Experiment box (science)
Hands-on inquiry — experiments on magnetism, electricity and water for discovery learning in science class.
≈ €90
Building & construction set
Construction and STEM material (e.g. LEGO® Education) for fine motor skills, geometry and problem-solving — learning by building.
≈ €150
How it works
Transparency
The fund runs as a personal collection via goodcrowd.me — not a tax-deductible donation but direct support for my freelance work (I declare contributions as business income accordingly). No donation receipts therefore. If you need one, drop me a line in advance — in the medium term the fund will run through a partner non-profit, which will make receipts possible.
