ForschungsdesignIn 2012, 2016, and 2020 the U.S. Embassy together with Leuphana University Lüneburg, Life e.V. / eXplorarium and Landesinstitut für Schule und Medien (LISUM) Berlin-Brandenburg organized a school project on the U.S. Presidential Election. This project is an intercultural blended learning program promoting democratic engagement and civil discourse in the context of the U.S. presidential campaign. The goal is to provide participants with information and analytical tools to predict and evaluate the election outcome of an adopted state. Teachers and students research and understand competing viewpoints and political arguments. About 2,000 participants in 2012 and more than 3,000 in 2016 adopted a U.S. state and learned about local politics, economics and culture. After becoming experts on their new "homes" and the U.S. election system, students made a prediction on the U.S. voters' choice on Election Day. Prior to the actual school phase of the project, many of these students' teachers participated in seminars organized by the U.S. Embassy and U.S. Consulates throughout Germany. American experts briefed the teachers on the U.S. election processes, issues, candidates, campaigns and the role of the media. Further trainings were offered introducing teachers to the effective use of online learning tools in their classrooms. An interactive mock election took place at the concluding events at Friedrich Ebert Stiftung in Berlin one day before Election Day. Student delegates cast their votes on behalf of their adopted U.S. states.
