Deutschmobil April 2014
Students of German in Presentation Secondary School enjoyed a wonderful experience on Wednesday 21st May when they welcomed the Deutschmobil into their school. The Deutschmobil, a touring bus and the initiative of German Connects, has been visiting schools and other educational institutions throughout the country as part of their language campaign to foster the learning of the German language throughout Ireland.
The second year 2A5 class was very fortunate to welcome this unique event into the school and were treated to a morning of German language and cultural activities not to be forgotten. German music, card-games, role-plays, jig-saw puzzles and map-work were just a few of the many versatile ,student- motivating activities incorporated, along with colourful teaching materials used to enthuse and encourage the girls to learn more about the language and culture of Germany . Students Jessica and Ciara said that “we found it very helpful and an easy and fun way to learn", "we found the visit very enjoyable. The activities were fun and made us use our German." Fellow classmates Sarah and Grace said “we learnt lots about Germany”.
The Deutschmobil is designed to encourage a greater number of Irish pupils and students to choose to learn German as part of their education is and is equipped with carefully chosen teaching and advertising materials for its tour through Ireland. Deutschmobil is operated by two German language assistants funded by the DAAD (German Academic Exchange Service).
Motivating students and inspiring teachers are the main goals of their project. To this end, they choose unconventional teaching methods and promote learning through fun and games.
It seeks to highlight why German is an important modern language which is worth learning and which will prove beneficial to all "would-be" German speakers.
The programme is an initiative by the German Embassy and the Goethe-Institut Irland, and is developed in close association with key Irish educational institutions and business. With a growing demand for high levels of language skills from domestic, Irish-based German companies in Ireland, this is the perfect time to learn German.
