Schatzkammer is a professional journal intended primarily for teachers of German language, literature, and culture in primary and secondary schools and undergraduate college classes in North America. It is designed to offer this community of teachers support and encouragement, practical information about teaching and program development, and a forum for sharing experience, information, and research with colleagues.
