Class Description:

Interested in learning the language spoken by the country with the fourth largest economy in the world, a global leader in both business and engineering? Want to learn more about the rich culture and fascinating histories of German-speaking countries? The lands of fairy tales, Beethoven and Goethe, techno music, and hiking galore?

Come study German! German 1001 is part of a proficiency-based program, emphasizing building skills so that you can use the language confidently and accurately in a variety of situations. This course focuses on your development of interpersonal speaking and listening skills, interpretive reading and listening skills, and presentational speaking and writing skills while working on an introduction to the cultures of the German-speaking world. The textbook, Vorsprüng, is accompanied by an online workbook (iLrn). Most of class time is spent working in pairs and small groups on a variety of activities. Since the majority of class time is devoted to speaking and listening in German, class attendance is critical. Expect an average of 1.5 hours of outside preparation for each class session hour.

This course is intended for students with NO previous study of German, or students who have not studied German in recent years (gap of 3 years or more). If you have more than two years of high school German completed within the last year or two, you should either register for GER 1022, which provides students with an accelerated review of GER 1001 material followed by material covered in GER 1002, or take the Entrance Proficiency Test for placement into second-year German.
