Gunter Keller | Saturday – Thursday 8 – 9.30 am
The task of geography lectures in ninth grade is to develop an understanding of the geological processes of our earth. Therefore, several earth systems are important to understand. One of these earth systems is formed by the movements of the earth's plates and described by the concept of plate tectonics. Topics are earthquakes, volcanoes, mid-ocean ridges, trenches and processes of mountain building as well as the typical rocks (granite, gneiss, marble, shales, etc.).

V.42 (bilingual) Education for Sustainable Development (ESD):
The Great Socio-Ecological Transformation
Gunter Keller | Saturday – Tuesday, 7.15 – 8.30 pm
If we follow our world and current global events today, we are becoming increasingly aware that we are facing major social challenges and changes. This is about the sustainability of our planet and our human society. It is a question of whether we can develop a way of life that uses our resources carefully, sparingly and considerately and at the same time enables a »good life« for as many people as possible.
In this forum, we want to address the question of how we can prepare our students for this socio-ecological transformation and how we can and must further develop our schools and our curriculum.
