Course content
The more effectively and more successfully the brain capacities are used, the more and more actively the pupils are taking part in the lessons, the more they handle the curriculum. Educational games offer a wide range of opportunities to motivate learning, while also offering plenty of room for individual learning styles, learning scenarios, and internal differentiation. Through this seminar, participants will learn about a broad repertoire of teaching games for activating students in German language teaching. Thus, teachers can better respond to changing learning habits among young people, thereby enhancing not only the quality and efficiency of teaching, but also the pleasure of teaching.
