Course content
|
The study materials consist of selected materials from various textbooks of German as a foreign language, with a particular focus on developing speaking skills, listening comprehension, and preparation for Goethe and ÖSD language examinations. The materials are selected according to the current language level and needs of the students and are made available progressively in Moodle. The course focuses primarily on the practical development of spoken communication at levels B2 to C1. Students expand their vocabulary and practise argumentation, expressing their own opinions, responding in everyday and academic communication situations, and working with different types of tasks used in language examinations. Regular listening-comprehension practice is also included. Each student prepares and gives an approximately ten-minute presentation during the semester. As the course is based on practical exercises, active participation is required. A maximum of two unexcused absences is permitted. Successful completion of the presentation is a requirement for receiving course credit.
