Intermediate German: Core Course IV

GERMANIC LANGUAGES AND LITERATURES 202D

Continuation of German 201D. In preparation for study at the advanced level, this fourth-semester course will continue the four-skills based approach of 201D, focusing on a range of cultural topics relevant to the German-speaking lands, including diversity in modern German society, the media, local and national politics, and transatlantic relations. The course also includes additional review of grammatical structures that will enable you to express yourself more fluently and idiomatically in German. All class discussion and assignments will be in German, in order to provide you with an opportunity to expand your active and passive vocabulary and gain confidence in your ability to communicate in the language. Prerequisite: German 201D, the equivalent, or placement by examination. Students who complete this course successfully should enroll in German 301D.
