The Coedu software, which was prepared to contribute to German language teaching, is discussed in the study. The aim of the research is to enable learners and teachers of German as a foreign language to access resources on the internet more quickly and to increase the quality of German language teaching. For this reason, the software called Coedu (Circle of Education) was designed and coded. In the research, a descriptive survey model was used, and the answer to the question "Does the Coedu education platform contribute to the improvement of the quality of German Language Teaching?" was sought. The study is limited to 32 second-year German language teaching students at Trakya University for the 2018–2019 academic year. Pre-test and post-test questionnaires with a total of 28 items were designed using the Likert model to gather the attitudes and opinions of the participants. After employing Likert-type questionnaire, the participants were given a questionnaire consisting of open-ended questions asking them to interpret the lifelong learning, autonomous learning, and advantages of the Coedu platform, and qualitative data were collected from the participants. In the research, it was concluded that the Coedu software contributed to the teaching of German in many ways, including the improvement of German language skills, lifelong learning, and material development. The findings revealed that the software developed is effective in improving German language skills, and it both saves time and makes material preparation more enjoyable.
