This course is intensive and is intended for dedicated, highly self-motivated students who will take responsibility for their learning and creation of meaning with their peers. In comparison to the semi-intensive course, you will indeed work with the same materials and textbook. However, you will be able to improve your German competence, expand your vocabulary and deepen your overall knowledge of German much faster.
This course is designed to deepen your competence in speaking and writing, and to expand and refine your vocabulary usage. In particular, this course focuses on the development of your academic register. You work across literary genres and media as you interpret and analyze cultural, political, and historical moments in German-speaking countries. Special attention is given to the development of an academic discourse style in your in-class discussions and in your written compositions. At the end of the course, you will hand in your final paper.TextErkundungen Deutsch als Fremdsprache C1, Anne Buscha, Susanne Raven und Gisela Linthout, Schubert Verlag, 2009.Selection of literary and non-literary texts.
