Die Digitalisierung nimmt auf allen Ebenen zu und so können und wollen wir Smartphones oder Tablets nicht mehr aus unserem Leben verbannen und das gilt letztendlich auch für den Bildungsdiskurs. Im Beitrag wird darauf eingegangen, ob und wie Smartphones im DaF-Unterricht in Slowenien vertreten sind, was für bzw. gegen ihren Einsatz spricht, unter welchen Umständen dieser sinnvoll ist usw. Es werden illustrativ einige Apps und Programme vorgestellt und auf Pro- und Contra-Argumente für ihren Einsatz hin untersucht, ehe abschließend ein Fazit gezogen wird.
Im vorliegenden Beitrag wird der Frage nachgegangen, ob Wortschatz mit einer Sprachlernapplikation effektiv erlernt werden kann. Den Ausgangspunkt bildet die Charakteristik der Wortschatzarbeit im traditionellen Fremdsprachenunterricht. Danach wird die Sprachapplikation "duolingo" vorgestellt. Es wird dabei analysiert, wie ihre Autor/innen bei der Vermittlung des Wortschatzes didaktischen Grundsätzen und lernpsychologischen Erkenntnissen folgen. Es werden sowohl Stärken als auch Unzulänglichkeiten gezeigt, die die Qualität des Vokabellernens
beeinflussen.
Wenn man etwas lernt oder lernen will, geht es immer besser, wenn es Spaß macht. Dieser Beitrag möchte zeigen, dass eine witzige Situation oder Witze als Textsorte nicht nur als Motivation zum Lernen, sondern auch als ein fester Bestandteil des DaF-Unterrichts dienen können. Als ein Argument, das sich wie ein roter Faden durch diesen Text zieht und das diese Behauptung unterstützt, bietet sich die pragmatisch verankerte Perspektive an. Der Beitrag stellt sich vor diesem Hintergrund die Frage, ob die Witze beim Vermitteln der pragmatischen Kompetenz im Rahmen des DaF-Unterrichts behilflich sein können und ob diese daher von der Peripherie näher ins Zentrum des DaF-Unterrichts geraten sollten. Auch wenn die Argumentationslinie dieses Beitrags die Rolle der Witze im Unterricht unterstützen will, wird hier diese Richtung keinesfalls überschätzt. So wie die pragmatische Kompetenz sollte auch der Witz ein Teilchen des sprachdidaktischen Mosaiks darstellen, das nicht unbedingt in dessen Zentrum liegen muss.
Eine Einführung in die Didaktik nicht-linguistischer Disziplinen im DaF-Unterricht lässt es notwendig erscheinen, sich zunächst der Frage nach der Legitimation und dem Stellenwert von Landeskunde, Literatur, Musik und Kunst im Fremdsprachenunterricht im Allgemeinen zuzuwenden. Der Einsatz von Musik ist nichts Neues im DaF-Unterricht, denn schon immer wurden und werden Lieder beim Erlernen fremder Sprachen eingesetzt. Trotzdem steht gerade die Musik an der Peripherie der Fremdsprachendidaktik, obwohl es sehr wichtig scheint, die Musik im Fremdsprachenunterricht einzusetzen. Der Beitrag widmet sich dem Thema Musik im DaF-Unterricht, und anhand der Ergebnisse einer im Jahre 2016 durchgeführten Fallstudie wird die Realität in der Unterrichtspraxis an den tschechischen Schulen dargestellt, d. h. wie die Lehrer mit Musik im Fremdsprachenunterricht (künftig: FSU) umgehen.
Der Artikel befasst sich mit der Fehleranalyse mit einem Schwerpunkt auf den Fehlern der tschechischen Schüler an Gymnasien in Schlesien. Der Begriff Fehler wird erklärt, und es wird versucht, eine neue Typologie der Fehler zu finden. Das Ergebnis der Fehleranalyse wird vorgestellt. Die Untersuchung setzt sich zum Ziel, zuerst die Fehler in schriftlichen Arbeiten zu klassifizieren und die häufigsten Fehlertypen zu finden. Der Beitrag erläutert, womit die Schüler die meisten Probleme haben.
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.
To reach even language users not acquainted to the use of grammars the Institut für Deutsche Sprache in Mannheim (Germany) looked for new way to handle grammatical problems. Instead of confronting users with abstractions frequent difficulties of German grammar are introduced in form of exemplary questions like „Which form should be used or preferred: Anfang dieses Jahre or Anfang diesen Jahres?” Looking through the long list of such questions even laymen may find solutions of grammatical problems they might not be able to formulate as such.
The interest of this work devotes itself to the repeating linguistic actions of the students in the DaF conversation lessons. Repetitions in the lesson discourse are functionally different than repetitions in the daily discourse. The support of repetitions by the students in the class discourse is tried to be demonstrated here on the basis of examples. Recordings from the DaF conversation lessons were transcribed and reconstructed according to Hiat. The kinds of the repetitions and their functions in these DaF conversation lessons are limited with this study. The findings of the study should be concerned consciously in order to accomplish a better understanding and reacting to these repeating actions of the students like inquiry, correction, confirmation, precautionary self-control, verification and confirmation in the conversation lessons –most of which are accomplished by the students for a certain aim however unconsciously.
Integration and social advancement in our time without a solid language skills are no longer possible. What has not been done for decades, they now try through the integration abroad and in Germany make up very successful. But German is unfortunately only the first, though perhaps the most important step for a successful integration. The next question should now be: Lack of integration in spite of good knowledge of German - why?
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.
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.
Learner autonomy has been discussed since the 70th in the last century. It was argued, that learners should be familiar with foreign language learning, because language learning will get more and more important in a society of the future. So even after school time people should be able to develop foreign language skills without any formal teaching. In recent time a new concept has been added: teacher autonomy. Learner autonomy and teacher autonomy are interdependent. In other words: We can not develop learner autonomy without developing teacher autonomy. Our discussion starts with some simple facts. Gordon Wells observed in his famous Bristol Project several children for more than ten years and compared their language development and learning behaviour in two contexts: school and families. Interesting differences have been found. On the one hand children are more initiative and more curious in the family context. On the other hand they loose more and more initiatives through school experiences. The concepts of learner autonomy and teacher autonomy and consequences for teacher training will be discussed in the context of these findings.
The mediation of German cultural studies has become a firm component of the foreign language lessons, because without knowledge about the culture of the target language communication cannot succeed. However, the aim of the study of the German cultural study lessons should not be to provide a comprehensive picture for the purposes of the actual study of the culture and geography, but to choose from the contents with the help of which then an intercultural competence can be developed. The concept "German cultural studies" is extended by the component "intercultural", so that now we speak of „German cultural and intercultural studies“. This contribution would like to point out which developments the field „German cultural and intercultural studies“ has taken in Turkey and which role the study of intercultural aspects plays in the German lessons at school and in the teacher advanced training. Furthermore this contribution would like to introduce the teaching draughts which were sketched for the teaching field “German cultural and intercultural studies” in the German teacher training. Moreover, it should be discussed with which subjects and methodical possibilities the learning aim of an intercultural competence can be reached.
The subject of this article is to research the Turkish and Turkey’s image presented in the coursebooks teaching German as a foreign language. From this point of view, most of the coursebooks produced with the aim of teaching German as a foreign language in the last 20-25 years have been examined, how these coursebooks present the Turks and Turkey’s image has been determined, and thus the Turkish image in the coursebooks has been summed up under four headings.
The paper focuses on experience gained at the university of Hildesheim (Germany) where a modular course programme has been introduced which concentrates on less frequently learnt European languages, such as Dutch, Danish, Portuguese and Italian, putting into practice relevant results of research in the field of Contrastive Linguistics. The paper ends with a presentation of the outline of a Turkish reading course for German learners, raising the question to what extent experience gained by comparing and teaching Indo-European languages can be applied to fundamentally different languages like German and Turkish.
In this study, the student mistakes, in the collaborative writing project, will be discussed. The texts written in the computer lab are sent to the instructor through internet and the teacher underlines the mistakes made by learners and sends the texts back to the students. The students get feedback both from teachers and from peers when they are writing and correcting their mistakes. Since the learners are either in their preparatory or 1st year, the common mistakes made by the students are incorrect structure usage, inappropriate linguistic use, overgeneralizations or mother tongue transfers. These errors result from their limited foreign language knowledge.
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.
