  • Flipped classroom: IMPULS DEUTSCH fully incorporates the flipped classroom approach into the three principal student components: LERNEN, MACHEN, and ZEIGEN. The success of the class depends on students coming to class prepared to learn with their fellow learners.
  • Flexibility: Vertiefungsstunden are special units that do not introduce new grammar. They can be left out to build flexibility into your syllabus, or they can be included to reinforce grammar while engaging with new material.
  • Attitude: Learning German should be fun. IMPULS DEUTSCH elevates its tone in line with the maturity level of college students and instructors. Students and the issues they face are taken very seriously, but, at the same time, our hope is that you will appreciate the elements of humor that have been built into IMPULS DEUTSCH.

Students are presented with multiple ways of putting what they have learned and practiced into action.

Impuls Deutsch Grant for Amplifying Voices in German Studies

IMPULS DEUTSCH celebrates diversity, not only by showcasing a wide range of racial, ethnic and religious groups, but also the LGBTQ+ community, diverse gender identities, and people with dis/ability. This is not only an acknowledgement of the diversity within the German-speaking countries, but also an acknowledgement of our instructors and students around the world.

To bring more inclusiveness into the classroom, we created the IMPULS DEUTSCH Grant for Amplifying Voices in German Studies. The grant aims to support German departments and instructors in bringing German speakers from either a) traditionally marginalized groups or b) other professional disciplines to the campus.
