Digital German
STEM Youth Camp

Digitales MINT Jugendcamp
  • Topic-oriented German course on nature and technology
  • Live STEM programme with virtual experiments
  • Tutor-led collaborative projects with a teacher

Why is there weightlessness on the space station? How do you measure the magnitude of an earthquake? What is the secret of electric fish? Young people who are keen on German and exciting topics can combine both in the digital STEM and German language youth camp. Where could you answer these questions better than in Göttingen, the city of science!

LEARN GERMAN
EXPERIENCE SCIENCE

The course participants meet their fellow learners and the teacher in online live sessions via Zoom from 9:00 to 10:30 (CET). The teenagers then practise their German individually on the Goethe-Institut's learning platform from 11:00 to 12:00 (CET). Their teacher will mentor them every step of the way. The STEM Live programme takes place from 13:30 to 15:00 (CET). At the end of each learning day, the teenagers discuss their experiences in German (15:30 to 16:00 CET).

The online live sessions convey the STEM subjects and language in a practice-oriented way. During the STEM Live programme, participants experience experiments in real time in School Labs, talk to researchers or go on a virtual scavenger hunt through the university city of Göttingen. The topics “Studying in Germany” and “Vocational Training in Germany” are also part of the programme. All participants can book an individual consultation appointment in German or English - together with their parents if they wish - and learn more out about studying, training and living in Germany.

What does the digital STEM Youth Camp offer?


The Digital STEM Youth Camp for teenagers is divided into different chapters dedicated to science topics and teaching appropriate vocabulary and grammar.


EXERCISES
The teenagers learn through many different online exercises, e.g. with videos, pictures, audios, reading and cloze texts, both alone and in groups. In addition, course participants complete group tasks, such as a presentation at the end of the course. In this way, the teenagers practise the skills of listening, reading and writing in German. Speaking is practised specifically in the live sessions.


QUESTIONS
If questions arise, the teenagers can exchange information with their fellow learners via the forum or contact their teacher by e-mail.


MATERIAL
All course material is available on our learning platform.
