ISBN-10: 3192015756  \nI strongly encourage you to make use of the following resources:  \n● The Bard Center for Foreign Languages and Culture provides various language learning materials on the website at  [http://flcl.bard.edu/resources/german/](http://flcl.bard.edu/resources/german/)  \n● Check out the “Resources” section at the Bard College Berlin German Studies Program website; it provides an overview of useful links and online resources on German language, literature and media at  [https://berlin.bard.edu/academics/german-program/](https://berlin.bard.edu/academics/german-program/)  \nCOURSE DESCRIPTION AND GOALS  \nThis course is designed to bring your communicative competence in German to an intermediate level. By “communicative,” we mean that you will learn to refine expressing your own ideas  \norally and in writing, and to develop advanced strategies for understanding spoken and written discourse—as opposed to merely memorizing vocabulary lists and grammar rules. By“competence,” we mean that your acquisition of the language must show a high level of grammatical, lexical, and cultural accuracy. Our goal is not simply a list of rules and words, but real communication between speakers.  \nTo achieve these goals, you have to engage in as many communicative exchanges as possible. The course will give you ample opportunity to do so: in small groups or with a partner, in direct interaction with me, in listening to dialogues between other native speakers on audiovisual media, in expressing your ideas in writing, and in understanding and discussing short texts.  \n● Classroom interaction will be in German, because input and use are the chief engines of foreign language acquisition.  \n● Active and consistent classroom participation is crucial to your success at acquiring the language. A language cannot be “crammed” in. So as to get the most out of this class, you need to constantly use and practice the language.  \n● Outside the classroom, you are expected—and will need to—spend at least 12 hours per week, which corresponds to two hours each day, doing your homework, and learning and practicing your grammar and vocabulary.  \n● Make sure to always bring a hardcopy of your written homework to class. Assignments need to be double-spaced and have margins of about 3 cm on each side for comments and corrections. NOTE: YOU MIGHT PREFER EMAIL OR WANT YOUR STUDENTS TO UPLOAD THEIR PAPER ON GOOGLE DRIVE / CLASSROOM  \nUpon completing this course successfully, you will have reached the B1 language proficiency level, corresponding to the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) that range from A1 for beginners to C2 for language skills at the highest level.  \nATTENDANCE  \nBecause Bard College Berlin has an intensive, student-centered and seminar-based educational model, attendance at all sessions of courses is mandatory.  \n● However, you may encounter circumstances that prevent you from attending classes for which you may be excused, meaning that the absences will not impact your grade.
