You are already in PHP mode, so you don’t need to re-open the PHP tags (<?php). Remove them, and it should work. You don’t even need the echo, since PHP drops out of PHP mode and back in HTML mode when it includes a file.

<?php
if (qtrans_getLanguage() == "en") {
   include( TEMPLATEPATH . '/slider_en.php' );

} else {
   include( TEMPLATEPATH . '/slider_de.php' );
}
?>
