Goals
of Course:
- To conduct
a thorough review of German grammar, and to master more advanced aspects
of German grammar.
- To enlarge
your vocabulary and improve your reading skills by working with short
stories, sketches, poems, and a major 20th century drama.
- To improve
your mastery of spoken German through lively discussion of our selected
readings, and through small group assignments and oral presentations.
- To improve
your writing skills through periodic short papers (1-3 pages).
- To introduce
you to some aspects of German intellectual life after World War II.
Texts
(all available at bookstore):
Der
Besuch der alten Dame. Friedrich Dürrenmatt.
Handbuch zur detuschen Grammatik.
Handbuch zur detuschen Grammatik workbook.
Recommended: A German/English dictionary. See me for suggestions. You
generally get what you pay for in terms of quality.
Requirements:
- Thorough
preparation: Come to class prepared to discuss the assigned readings
and grammar lessons.
- Papers:
Several short papers will be due in the course of the semester based
on prior readings. NO LATE PAPERS, NO EXCEPTIONS.
- Workbooks:
The workbooks are due at each quiz on the chapters corresponding
to the schedule below.
- Oral
presentations: Each week, a different pair of students will lead
our discussion in German of the assigned readings. Please meet with
me before your turn to lead so that we can discuss strategies for classroom
discussion.
- Quizzes:
These will take place after we complete every two or three chapters
of the textbook. NO MAKE-UPS.
- Final
Exam: The final will be a cumulative exam based on the textbook,
although the emphasis will be on the final chapters. It will also include
some basic short essay components.
