The aim of the "Living in Bavaria" course series is to familiarize participants with the culture, values and our coexistence in Bavaria and to make it easier for them to find their way in everyday life. Participants receive practical support in matters of everyday life, upbringing, education and health, as well as the opportunity to improve their German language skills. The values education courses are not intended to be strictly frontal teaching, but to leave room for exchange with each other and with the course instructors. In order to illustrate lived values, the lessons should also include insights into club life or voluntary work.
The course series "Living in Bavaria" consisting of the three modules is funded:
The content of the modules is based on the teaching materials developed by the Bavarian State Center for Political Education, consisting of the teaching concept for the course instructors and the workbook for the participants. Each module is accompanied by an activity that is thematically related to our values or our culture (e.g. visit to a school or daycare center, museum visit, city tour).
