paedophiles that set out to systematically defile and dishonor german women girls and boys. the outrage over the allegedly barbaric conduct of the french colonial troops on german soil boiled over into bizarre and festering images. of the world here we can see an african with deformed lips who almost looks like an ape beneath a french helmet and when you turn the coin over you see a german woman found to a martyr stake at the shrine that is the erect penis of a black man topped by a military helmet these were the central obsessions of the black shame campaign this piece is a typical example of black training propaganda which was very wide ranging we can't imagine how powerful this propaganda was today but enormous amounts of money were invested in it brochures were translated from english dark swedish french spanish and american english and so on there were postcards illustrations posters

2 perspectives one is a propaganda campaign directed by the state that is the attempt to overturn the conditions of the versailles peace and that influenced the setting of further postwar conditions. it was aiming to reestablish international solidarity with germany germany wasn't in the league of nations at this point that on the one hand would be a classical political historical standpoint but on the other hand the question is why this campaign spread and appealed to so many other people declare war time the seat was viewed as a failure of the military leadership and the monarchy but also a failure of german soldiers although this was not recognized openly these are the black shame campaign didn't want to admit that campania i english time so the blame for the defeat was projected onto the participation of african soldiers and it's a classic case of transmission if you wish were in

a class issue by targeting sit here on. the leaders of the campaign wanted to publicize reports of mass rapes of german women internationally a few days after the clashes in frankfurt in april 1920 an article appeared in england denouncing the presence of french colonial troops on german soil. the author of the article was the english journalist and labor member of parliament edmund deane mirelle. morrell felt were tight in d.c. and in his article condemned the french occupation on the rhine and its use of black troops. which he described as a horror a terrible situation what's your one and he was already in contact with german officials and was getting information from that office. went ahead in 4 months or.

as far as influencing british public opinion about the occupation of the rhineland using black soldiers is concerned a number of english politicians and journalists staying in berlin in the last few months have been granted access to a large number of documents pertaining to the conduct of black troops in the occupied region mirelle has used the material he was given to publish a brochure of the horror on the rhine which he has written to great effect it was quite apparent that the horror on the rhine awoke feelings of physical and psychological discussed and everyone. does also i think i'm as into the foreign ministry was always behind the scenes inviting visitors from abroad to come to the rhine land and then go back home and report how horrible things were there before by the thing as 15. among the

between 19191928 several 100 children fathered by colonial soldiers were born to german women in the german regions along the rhine the precise number isn't known but it could be anywhere from 402-8000 these children and their mothers and their families were socially ostracized from the start. a senior civil servant wrote. unfortunately some of the female population did not know how to defend their morals or uphold the honor of their position and national dignity they gauge didn't relations with occupation troops in a disgusting way this fraternization was of course not without consequences in many cases. the position france rosenberger went even further. should we silently tolerate this fact that instead of the light songs of white beautiful well bred and electrolux appear
6:36 am
a lively young germans on the banks of the rhine we will hear the calling sound of dapple grey low brow and a wide nosed chorus half animals of a little more lotto. or when they speak of the latter's ation they're presuming that a lot of women from the rhine region had voluntary relations with colonial. oops and also bore them children and many nationalist propagandists campaigned against what they called white shame so that's a very massage and mystic anti woman version that says it's bad enough that the french have brought these black soldiers into the country now we've also got all these german women with no sense of honor or patriotism lining up on mass to have sexual relations with these colonial soldiers. the x. clothes you all the exclusion touched on there of the white woman from the
6:37 am
collective of the german nation is of course racist. the concept is that the german population of the body of the people regenerates from within and that anyone involved in racial defilement must be excluded from the body of the german. there is naturally also an assumption that if someone has a darker skin color he or she can't really be german there you see a deep rooted belief that being german means having a specific ethnic identity. so your german if your skin's the right color but what about those who have african or asian fathers but at 1st sight don't look like it for example village barred from. it the impression of him being alien or different and that was basically purely abstractly while he spoke

a broad report in dialect so that really like i said nobody in you could clearly work out his origins from his speech. his language defined him as a long established local and that was always what mattered for us when. in 1920 children used to sing who's afraid of the black man and answer themselves. nobody. but it wasn't the same for adults. these are of the good born bad indeed the afro german children born from these relationships were in a tough position and the ever known they were a reminder of their defeat in the war. and the present songs much they were a reminder of the french occupation forces. and they reminded people of the inability of german men to protect their women from alleged rapists that's highest

. that means that the authorities already had these children in their sights by the mid 1920 s. . they were perceived as a potential threat and portents here with a warm bargain on one local politician had a radical solution the maturing of half breeds who will soon be capable of reproducing is causing great concern in the fonts so i'm asking you to listen to what's being said at the right.

6:42 am
now. thanks to distancing learning robots students recovering at home from illness or injury can follow and contribute to what happens in classrooms. quiana geim from often has been having me problems since suffering a sporting injury for weeks she's been unable to go to school. but thanks to new distancing learning technology the 11 year old can attend her school's politics class from home.
6:43 am
can watch listen and contribute to what happens in the classroom the a.v. one or charlie a small robot. she controls the device using a tablet. answering the teacher's questions to the robot isn't a simple as it could be though. and it's different when you're actually in the classroom when you're there it's easier to participate and you don't have to think about where to look at home things are different you have to direct your camera in the right location decide where you want to look. but apart from that it's pretty good what. charlie the robot can be steered in any direction but it does take some time. let's do you want us to turn the robot around. i'm almost there.
6:44 am
during breaks or uses the robot to goof around with her classmates. almost as if she were there in person so. we're toast i know showing the teachers a kiosk a school she worked hard to get a distance learning robot for her school collecting donations and subsidies to foot the 3700 year old bill. she says robots help children who are sick at home to stay connected. kunz 5 kids can catch up on studying at home but they also need social interaction they want to participate in the classroom even with an injured knee they can interact with their classmates thanks to charlie. it gets pretty boring when you're all alone in hospital or at home. you start wondering what the others are up to what class they're attending. the robot helps me stay in
6:45 am
touch by. his classmates take the robot along on their break so they can chat during recess provided the wife i connection holds up the. game if occasion is all about playful learning it's celebrated by many but some experts say it's only suitable in limited contexts. mine on my uncle harrison goodwill invited me to germany in his letter he talks about an important invention. project lingo that will change the world and he thinks he's being persecuted but why is. 'd this really going to wrack to crime stories been designed by the good to institute to help students learn german. the idea is that instead of studying vocabulary and grammar rules students will hold their language skills more intuitively by playing
6:46 am
a game. the teaching adventure app appeals to our innate playfulness. to solve the crime mystery students must construct complex sentences and use a broad range of all cabul or the aim is for students to learn how to write job applications. game if occasion is seen as a promising teaching method that's not only fun but also hugely motivational. to succeed we have to concentrate and do the hard work which is what learning is all about. how one from students a games really motivate them because they don't feel like they're studying many say oh this is just really fun. i. know many play this game not because they want to improve their german skills but because it's enjoyable and that's what game a fixation is all about it's all smart. game if occasion works as stockholm's piano stairway shows. the idea is that by turning
6:47 am
the stairs into piano keys will be more fun to climb and more people will be encouraged to skip the escalator and walk. the result 66 percent of people who took the escalator gave the musical stairway a go if only briefly. many of us from this on someone is motivated to do something this is always more effective than if someone tells that person you have to do this games make it easier for our brain to learn something than if we sit in a classroom but gamification is not only about making learning more fun it also encourages people to learn independently or work out solutions on their own instead of being told what to do but this year rieker effect is what makes people really memorize things was. playful interaction is the name of the game show no a u.s. student likes the go to institute learning app so much she even uses it to study
6:48 am
german in her free time. something she has never done with a conventional vocabulary book. to most of my good i always like having a choice of materials to study not just books. and the app is an alternative to playing games on my mobile when i'm in the subway or in a taxi going somewhere taxi. is game of occasion the future of education. not necessarily says mark fabiani book pedagogic sport he says games can be beneficial to learning but only under the right circumstances and for certain people. i think gamification is promising in the field to further education and training because here people are learning new skills so these are usually well educated individuals who have already completed procreational training or university or both schools are about teaching certain behavioral problems here come
6:49 am
a fixation should not be a complement all the teaching method. is no substitute for conventional classroom teaching you cannot get through high school just by playing educational games education and classroom teaching is more complex than the. car manufacturer already is using games to train its sales staff on the job the game as players navigate a virtual car dealership and talk to virtual buyers they need to answer their questions questions that have been sourced from real conversations. virtual buyers will react positively or negatively to the kind of answers provided. players aren't performance points and are ranked depending on how well they do in the game . but this kind of competition can also be counterproductive. rankings compare people but that's not what learning is about learning is about becoming better than we were before that's what a ranking can give me
6:50 am
a sense of form to tell others of but that's not the focus learning is not necessarily about competition. the german students meanwhile are getting closer to solving the crime mystery and of learned a new range of all cabul area along the way. and even if they do forget some of the new words it was a fun way to study. artificial intelligence or ai can help students study more effectively smart textbooks for example can detect where they may need extra learning support. we're at the german research center for artificial intelligence today students get to play around and explore the various ai projects researchers are developing to a teaching. iniquitous course mine are showing the students how ai can assist teachers in the
6:51 am
classroom. where type of mind doesn't the other mind projects is about creating a prototype adaptive textbook of the future when it registers how students read census track and analyze the reader's behavior and can adapt the book according not . ok ok so how about you read the middle section of this page. a sensor tracks the student's eye movements as she reads this physics textbook. ai technology that interprets how well she's learned the subject matter. if the sensor registers her eyes darting around or returning to the same formula or over and of concludes that the person is struggling to understand the subject an infrared camera provides additional clues about someone's learning progress it can detect when someone's forehead gets warmer because the brain is working extra hard. ai technology can interpret this as a sign of
