Collaborative bibliography & forum for discussion: how can we reshape the curriculum and teaching practices in German Studies?
Joined July 2018
It's happened! We launched our new site @ags_tweets yesterday. Go check it out: It will always be a work in progress, but we have started by launching our pre-1500, 1750-1850 and post-2000 pages. Get in touch if you have ideas, feedback, critiques!

Really great event! Took lots from it about creating a space where we can talk about disabilities in the classroom and make sure everyone is aware of the barriers and how to minimise their effects.
A phenomenal event! 3 first steps to make teaching more accessible 1) Formatting: Use a sans serif font, 1.5 line spacing and 12+ font size 2) Run materials through an accessibility check 3) Visit the classroom (& work with the building manager to get any necessary changes made)
