In diesem Beitrag werden Ergebnisse von zwei Experimenten präsentiert: Einerseits werden didaktische Strategien aus der Perspektive ihrer Attraktivität und Innovation analysiert, die im Rahmen eines Sommer-Schnell-Deutschkurses in der Presse zur Popularisierung der deutschen Sprache eingesetzt wurden. Andererseits wird dargelegt, welchen Effekt solche Strategien in einer realen Experimentiersituation mit Deutsch-Lernenden auf ihre Motivation, ihr Verständnis und andere Aspekte des Deutschlernens im Vergleich zu "klassischen" Materialien wie z. B. Lehrwerken hatten. Dabei werden verschiedene Spezifika und
Bedürfnisse der Lernenden in Betracht gezogen.
Aktuelle Probleme der tschechischen Deutschlehrer und Deutschlehrerinnen in der Sekundarstufe
(2019)
Tschechische Deutschlehrer/innen waren in den letzten Jahrzehnten mit zahlreichen Schwierigkeiten konfrontiert. Die Politik des Sprachunterrichts hat sich im selben Zeitraum so geändert, dass das europäische Konzept der Mehrsprachigkeit 1+2 eine große Herausforderung für die Tschechische Republik darstellt. Derzeit ist zwar das Konzept 1+2 in der Sekundarstufe I offiziell vorgeschrieben, in der Sekundarstufe II ist aber in der Regel nur eine Fremdsprache Pflichtfach, nämlich Englisch. Trotz der Bedeutung des Deutschen als Sprache unserer Nachbar/innen hat der Deutschunterricht in den tschechischen Schulen keine leichte Position. In diesem Beitrag werden die Ergebnisse einer kleinen Untersuchung unter den Deutschlehrer/innen in der Tschechischen Republik zur Problematik der deutschen Sprache in der gegenwärtigen Schule vorgestellt.
Politeness has become a key qualification in intercultural competence and didactics. The paper presents parts of an empirical research of the development and shaping of verbal politeness in critical incidents investigating the way German and Turkish students of the German language deal with criticism and complimenting. The findings show that Turkish students of German as a foreign language avoid direct criticism and prefer manners considered to be polite in German. Complimenting is an expression of their own positive feelings and acts as “messages about oneself”, whereas the German students prefer “meritorious praise” referring to merits. The discriminating effects of migration within the Turkish students are smaller than expected perhaps because of the increase of transcultural knowledge. This should give new ideas for the didactics of politeness.
Even if translation has a long tradition within the conveyance of foreign languages, there has been a vehement discussion on its role since the 1970s – at least with respect to some languages, such as English. In the context of German as a foreign language this topic has been discussed only to some extent. With this in mind, the following article aims to examine the role of translation in the field of the German as a foreign language with specific focus on the advantages and limitations associated with its conveyance and the resultant consequences.
In terms of their functions and issues, the use of selection posters is possible in language teaching. Therefore, the present study aims to investigate the didactic potential of selection posters in German language teaching. Because of this reason, with this study, it is tried to show that the selection posters can be dealt with as materials in the courses in German Language teaching, which can be used parallel to the needs and interests. Accordingly, the alternative ways or approaches are tried to be made concrete throughout the courses. Consequently, the selection posters constitutes a wide range in German language teaching in terms of local culture, vocabulary knowledge, the processes of linguistic studies, visualization, authenticity, actuality, and spoken and written studies.
Speakers of Russian from the former Soviet Union and speakers of Turkish form the two biggest groups of immigrants in Germany. There is a number of surveys, that focus on early second language acquisition of kindergarten and primary school children in these ethnic groups. In this article, I will discuss differences and similarities of the second language acquisition process, that Russian and Turkish speaking children go through. I will compare not only the interlingual development (pronunciation, lexicon, syntax and morphology) but also the sociocultural context. For this purpose the data of my case studies will be contrasted with the other research results.
After giving an overview of the implementation of Business German in the curricula of German Departments outside of Germany and showing which place Business German has taken within these departments today, this article focuses on the teaching goals and contents as well as on the competences that ought to be achieved by the students in the German Department at Istanbul University in order to explain which chances and opportunities this study field opens up to students of German language and literature.
The article addresses the growing importance of corpus-based research in the field of German foreign language acquisition. German corpora in general and learner corpora in particular are briefly introduced. A short overview of existing German learner corpora is followed by a detailed description of the error-annotated learner corpus Falko, a learner corpus of advanced learner German, which is accessible via internet (without any prior registration) and free of charge. Finally, a short example analysis demonstrates some of the functionalities of Falko. The aim of the article is to encourage researchers to employ corpora as helpful tools in their own work.
Mediengestützter Deutschunterricht im türkischen universitären Bereich : eine Bestandsaufnahme
(2010)
A trend in nature of a permanent increase towards multimedia lifestyle has arisen in all stratas of the society. Thus, rather than using written course-books, publishing houses prefer to encourage use of multimedia which are dependent to course-book or which are independent of course-book and language learners prefer to learn with multimedia. Thus it is encouraged that courses are supported in that manner. This study aims to examine scope and limits of computer aided German teaching which is flourishing as a foreign language within Turkey university education recently. This study has been applied in preparatory classes of departments which provide four-year education. Results of a survey on use of multimedia dependent on course-book or independent of course-book within courses within Turkey university education has been given within scope of this study. Evidences on competence of German teachers and learners in use of multimedia has been given and have been visualized through use of graphics. Problems of multimedia aided German courses and solutions offers will be submitted.
The paper sketches out the framework of a transcultural model of language learning and teaching. In doing so it illuminates linguistic, psycholinguistic, hermeneutical und didactic aspects of the complex field of language learning rather than limiting itself to discussing mere methodological phenomena. The paper argues that the language learning and teaching profession can only advance by taking transcultural concepts of language acquisition, of linguistic systems, of language processing and of media use into account and by integrating them into a coherent system of language didactics.
