TitleGerman Award of Excellence
BodyFrom http://www.goethe.de/ins/us/ney/lhr/wer/aoe/deindex.htm

The annual contest, the Award of Excellence, is gearing up. The Goethe Institut expects to send out materials for the contest by the end of October so teachers have time to plan the materials into your curriculum.

For those who are not already registered, the Award of Excellence is contest in which teachers show a DVD to their students, which examines one facet of German culture. The students in turn have to answer questions based on the video, and the instructor sends back an entry form based on these results. Schools across the U.S. and Canada have taken part in this contest, and in the past, we've had numbers exceeding 80,000 students.

The grand prize is a trip to Germany and a free course at a Goethe-Institut. Participating schools will also receive consolation prizes just for taking part. If you are interested in participating or would like more information, please visit our website: www.goethe.de/aoe .

If you have not yet registered, there is a link to form where you can submit your school's profile information on the online form. Information about this year's contest is online on the main page under the '2008-2009' section. The topic for this year is the environment.
