Class Description:
Students in this course will be working with the course-packet Sprünge and the accompanying listening exercises on Sprünge-Online, short literary texts, a feature film, and online cultural exercises. Topics covered in this course will include free-time activities and travel, living situations, the German educational system and career decisions. The program has a communicative and functional orientation. German 1003 is designed to review basic German language structures and to help students extend their listening and speaking skills. Regular recycling of grammar and vocabulary encourages students to become more fluent in their use of language. Students participate regularly in conversational activities, small group work, role-plays, and internet research of cultural topics. Process-writing essays, presentations on cultural topics, and short interviews round out the course.
PARTIALLY ONLINE SECTIONS: The instruction and content are delivered by a combination of in class face-to-face meetings and a wide range of independent and collaborative online activities with short (frequent) due dates. Most weeks will have 3 face-to-face sessions and 2 online work-days, in addition to regular homework. This course requires a considerable amount of independent work to be completed online outside of the classroom contact hours.
