The four-week International Summer Course is organised by the International Office and offers international students, doctoral students and researchers preparation for their stay in Giessen and at our university. The core of the programme consists of intensive German language courses, practical exercises with regional studies content, workshops, city tours and various excursions.
This workshop aims to cultivate a deeper understanding of our intercultural reality and address intercultural disparities in a constructive manner. Participants will actively engage in discussions covering a diverse range of topics, including the multifaceted dimensions of culture within university settings, strategies for enhancing intercultural awareness to improve teaching effectiveness, the enrichment of learning experiences through embracing diverse perspectives, personal biases and power dynamics within educational contexts.
The Lab for Innovative Teaching in Giessen opens its doors every Wednesday from 10:00 to 15:00 for anyone interested in virtual and augmented reality. Visitors can ask questions, test devices and work on virtual teaching concepts at workstations. A VR lending station is also available for teaching and research purposes.
