Abstract

AbstractAs language pedagogy evolves and the pressure to articulate the value of the humanities in undergraduate education mounts, new curricular models are needed more than ever. The course “Sustainability in Germany: Recreation, Education, Innovation” is a response to that need. Originally designed to include a short‐term study abroad component, the course was transformed during the COVID‐19 pandemic into a completely virtual learning experience. This article outlines pedagogical approaches and curricular materials for teaching students about sustainability in Germany in a virtual format. Designed to encourage intermediate‐ and advanced‐level learners of German to apply their linguistic skills and cultural knowledge, this course puts sustainability education, intercultural competence, experiential learning, and language practice at its core.
