Dear Friends,
Since K-12 learning is largely taking place online these days, our German educational outreach department has adapted swimmingly! Resources for middle- and high-school-level students taking German classes are available in a number of forms: our "Unterrichtshäppchen," bite-sized one-page PDF lessons covering a variety of topics, are updated monthly with new and timely themes. Our colleagues in Montréal are also engaging young German-learners in dialogues about food and sustainability in a series of worksheets, programming, and a cooking contest.
Have you already been learning German a while – as a high schooler or a college student – and feel ready to explore what next steps you could take with your German knowledge? Join our virtual Career Days in October to see what's out there for you.
Following the Town Hall launch of Shaping the Past, Goethe-Instituts across the USA, Canada, and Mexico will participate in Memory Month: an extended virtual and in-person program series highlighting and discussing ongoing critical memory interventions in sites and spaces, and in particular, monuments, in North America and Germany. The program features Monument Lab transnational Fellows, as well as prominent international voices in the field. Thanks to technology, virtual events across the region are available for everyone to tune into – take a look at the interesting conversations we have coming up!
If you want to demonstrate your German aptitude in seeking a new career or education path for yourself, obtaining an internationally-recognize Goethe-Institut certificate of German ability is a great way to do so. Fall 2020 exam registration is open now.
