Welcome to our virtual classroom!

This is our e-learning space for the advanced class of the Oberstufe. The course meets for five regular sessions per week.  Your attendance in all of these sessions is mandatory. Should you be unable to attend class, please advise your instructor in advance.

Your participation in this class is expected since we all learn from each other. The more you participate, the more lively and productive our sessions will be.

Our general topic for our course Q1, which will also appear on your report card under the subject English, is Ideals and Realities.  This general topic consists of three subtopics we'll be dealing with during the course of this year:

• The USA - the formation of a nation
• Living in American society
• The manifestation of individualism.

Harper Lee's book "To Kill a Mockingbird" and the film by Robert Mulligan will be mandatory.

Our general topic for our course Q2 is The Encounter of Cultures.

It consists of three subtopics:

• Great Britain - past and present: the character of a nation
• Ethnic diversity
• The English speaking world, including Ireland as the country of reference.
