&lt;p>The DaF examination-format YAMLs are structurally inspired by the
publicly documented model-exam handbooks of the &lt;strong>Goethe-Institut&lt;/strong>
(&amp;ldquo;Prüfungsziele, Testbeschreibung&amp;rdquo; / &amp;ldquo;Modellsatz Erwachsene&amp;rdquo;),
&lt;strong>ÖSD&lt;/strong>, and &lt;strong>telc&lt;/strong>. Boulingua is &lt;strong>not affiliated&lt;/strong> with these
institutions, and &lt;strong>no actual stimulus material from any official
model exam is reproduced&lt;/strong>; only the structural parameters
(number of parts, item counts, timing, scoring weights, rubric
dimensions) inform the format YAMLs. All stimulus texts on the
sites are original to S. Le Boulanger.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>About</title><link>https://boulingua.github.io/website/about/</link><pubDate>Wed, 01 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://boulingua.github.io/website/about/</guid><description>&lt;p>Boulingua is a free, openly licensed multilingual teaching platform created by
S. Le Boulanger. It is built for language teachers and learners working in the
German school system — specifically Gesamtschule — and for international
learners of German following the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR).&lt;/p>
&lt;p>The platform brings together teaching units for three languages — English,
French, and German as a foreign language — alongside a curated hub of free,
openly licensed teaching resources. EFL and FLE units are organised by school
year (Klasse) and curriculum-aligned, including Niveau-Differenzierung (G / M /
E). The DaF units follow standard examination formats and are organised by
CEFR level (A1 to C1).&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Contact</title><link>https://boulingua.github.io/website/contact/</link><pubDate>Wed, 01 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://boulingua.github.io/website/contact/</guid><description>&lt;p>&lt;strong>Author&lt;/strong>: S.

&lt;div class="philosophy-grid">

 &lt;svg viewBox="0 0 24 24" stroke-width="1.6" stroke-linecap="round" stroke-linejoin="round">

 &lt;/div>
 &lt;h3>Open access&lt;/h3>
 &lt;p>Education materials should be free to use, share, and adapt. Boulingua draws only on openly licensed sources and publishes everything under open licences — MIT for code, CC-BY-SA 4.0 for content. No paywalls, no logins, no tracking.&lt;/p>
 &lt;/div>
 &lt;div class="philosophy-panel">

 &lt;/div>
 &lt;h3>Curriculum alignment&lt;/h3>
 &lt;p>Units are not generic. Every lesson maps to specific competencies — by school year and Niveau for the language curricula, by CEFR descriptor for the international track. Alignment is the work; the rest follows from it.&lt;/p></description></item><item><title>Platforms</title><link>https://boulingua.github.io/website/platforms/</link><pubDate>Wed, 01 Jan 2025 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>https://boulingua.github.io/website/platforms/</guid><description>&lt;p>Boulingua consists of four sister sites.
