Course content
|
The aim of the course is to prepare students linguistically for further study of German, particularly in terms of understanding complex texts written in German. The core focus is on deepening students' knowledge of German grammar, improving their ability to understand both written texts and spoken language, and developing their active ability to communicate in German, particularly when discussing issues related to the texts analysed. The course also focuses on improving students' written expression, both during face-to-face lessons and through the completion of short homework assignments on individual texts. All the texts and assignments analysed, together with other supporting materials, are available on the Moodle LMS.

Learning outcomes
|
The aim of the course is to prepare students linguistically for further study of German, particularly in terms of understanding complex texts written in German: In this course, students prepare for the written exam in the summer term, during which they have 4 hours to analyse short narrative texts written in German (max. 2 pages).. The analysis consists of answering 6-7 comprehension questions about the text in writing, translating 6 sentences about the text from Czech into German and grammatically changing 8 sentences from the text according to instructions. The course is therefore about both text comprehension and practising written expression in German. In the course there are about 3 homework assignments that the students have to complete as well as a test exam at the end of the semester, which has to be discussed individually. Two unexcused absences per semester are permitted.
Extension of the knowledge of German grammar, the ability to understand written and spoken demonstrations of German language and an active skill to communicate in German; the knowledge of general principles of academic work (work with sources and with secondary literature).
