Course objectives
At the end of the seminar the students should be able to express themselves in a better german. The seminar is a mixture of (technical) language teaching and working with regional themes. Methodologically, the seminar is based on the idea of cross-cultural studies and the ABCD-Theses. The aim of the seminar is to look critically and comprehensively at individual cultural phenomena, and to integrate language work. The topics are presented as examples or comparative for Austria, Germany and Switzerland processed. By the use of authentic sources, different views are shown and simultaneously the students improve their language proficiency.
Syllabus
  • Instruction contents are opened to a large extent on the inductive way, over process and problem oriented entrance. With the help of the contrastive view for cultural differences students should be sensitised for intercultural understanding. Topics by the lecturer: media in the German speaking countries, actual phenomena in the German language and German as a pluricentric language, aspects of life in urban spaces (Vienna at the end of the 19th century, contemporary architectural projects, life quality). Topics by Mrs. Sorger: theory of cultural studies (Landeskunde), Plate and symbols, education system, minorities and integration, tourism.
