Teaching German as a World Language
Course Description:
8 Week asynchronous online course with 4 virtual sessions
The overall goal of this course is for teachers to learn the elements of the German language and how the form and function of linguistic parts work together in communication. Teachers will learn the semantic classes, the nouns and functions of the article, the formal properties of gender, number, and case, the connection between the preposition and the following case, and why standard pronunciation is important. The course will culminate with a 3-week final project (Practical Exploration Project or PEP), in which the new theoretical approaches of the DLL unit are reviewed and assessed in the teacher’s own teaching practice. This course is conducted in German as an immersion experience in partnership with the Goethe-Institut USA.
