German I Part 1:
In German I Part 1, the learner is given a comprehensive introduction to the basic and fundamental skills necessary for expressing common ideas in the German language. The course will begin by introducing the learner to the basics of introductory conversation and build in theme and scope to address topics including daily activities, travel, needs, desires, and preferences in increasingly complex and typical situations. This provides a realistic context for the skills acquired by the learner. The course also provides a considerably thorough study of grammatical skills, ranging from the most basic sentences to more engaging and creative structures dealing with more interesting situations. There is a significant amount of vocabulary introduced across all four units in order to provide a rich lexicon for communicating a large number of possible ideas. Throughout the course, a great deal of attention is paid to all of the skills necessary for a full and practical mastery of the language, such as reading, writing, listening, and speaking. Along the way, the learner will acquire a familiarity with many of the cultural factors that helped to shape and are shaped by the German language. By the end of the first part of the course, the learner will become a comfortable communicator in the basic aspects of the German language and will be prepared to continue further study in more intermediate and advanced themes in the second part of the course.
Course Length: 1 Semester
