| Title | Teach Europe Program |
| Body | From: The German Information Center Last year's anniversary of the French-German Elysee Treaty was celebrated with a lot of events and with the creation of a great program: Teach Europe. The program offers fair and updated information on the European Union, its multicultural nature, its economy, its role and impact on today's world, and its relations with the United States. Teach Europe is open to all educators, but is targeted especially toward high school teachers of French and German languages, as well as any other EU language, Social Studies, and History. No previous training in European studies is necessary. The program features annual workshop seminars, a general website for the teachers and their students and a pedagogical resources kit, for direct classroom use, given to all participants. Workshops will be held at the participating universities of Yale, Columbia and Rutgers. Each set of four workshops will be opened with a keynote speech setting the main themes for the day and will be followed by a European lunch and a panel discussion to open up the debate. Each day, participants will work closely together with professors and will be exposed to innovative teaching strategies. All workshops are planned in accordance with nationwide Continuing Education Units standards. Upon completion of the program, CEUs or Credit Hours will be granted to the participants. Teach Europe was developed by the Cultural Sections of the German Consulate General New York and the French Embassy, as well as the American Association of Teachers of French, the American Association of Teachers of German (AATG), the French Institute Alliance Française, the Goethe Institut, and the Universities of Yale, Rutgers, and Columbia. The European Union Delegation in Washington, DC is a partner of the program.
