Dear Colleagues:

You are cordially invited to attend our next Lehrerkonferenz, "Context, Content, Culture: Energizing Students At All Levels." The event will take place October 28-29 at Davidson College. It is made possible by the generous support of Davidson College and Langenscheidt Publishers.

All AATG members and prospective members are welcome to attend. The conference provides an excellent opportunity to meet with colleagues of all levels, to shape and improve the content of our German Day for high school students, to begin conceptualizing better articulation of our high school to college curriculum, and to discuss how we define and teach culture in our classrooms. For non-members, it is also a chance to meet with fellow professionals and weigh the benefits of membership. Aside from business items and relaxing Kaffeeklatsch, the agenda will feature a fantastic dance performance by the alban elved dance company and a guest presentation by Lutz Rohrmann, co-author of the Langenscheidt textbook Berliner Platz.
  

To register for the conference, please download the registration form (pdf), and return the form along with a check made out to NCAATG to Burkhard Henke by October 10 by October 21. Conference fees are $20 for both days or $10 for Saturday only. Full-time students and teachers in their first or second year of service may attend at half price!!!

Registration is now closed.
