Year 12 German Study Day: Literature and Science
We hosted 30 Year 12 students of German – despite them being on half-term holidays – for a themed study day thinking about how their experiences of studying a language can help us think and understand the sciences better, and vice versa. You can see the programme and check out the texts we used here: https://www.sjc.ox.ac.uk/3958/Year-12-Study-Days.html
