Learning Results

The learning objectives of this curricular unit reflect the skills at A1 level set out in the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (Council of Europe). In accordance with this framework, the course aims to develop the students’ knowledge and abilities which enable basic communication in German within a personal environment and immediate needs in everyday life using simple and commonly used expressions. In order to be able to engage in such communication activities students are required to acquire and develop a range of communicative competences, i.e., sociocultural awareness, effective interpersonal interaction, a command of German grammar, vocabulary and phonology.
