Prof. Dr. Magdalena Michalak (Nuremberg) pleaded in her lecture "'There are too many high-sounding words used that distract from the meaning of the text.' Between Language and Subject Didactics" for a stronger, interdisciplinary cooperation between subject and language didactics. A central question in this context is how subject teachers who do not study a language subject can be sensitized to language.
Prof. Dr. Argyro Panagiotopoulou (Cologne) focused in her presentation "Language Education and Inclusion: Design and Results of an International Comparative Study at German Schools Abroad on Teachers' Views of Multilingualism in the Classroom" on the topic of multilingualism in the school context as a resource.
