Contact: Required Texts: Kontakte. 6 th Edition. McGraw Hill Online Workbook (Arbeitsbuch) Recommended: English Grammar for Students of German Course Goals: Welcome to Intermediate German I. In this course you will continue to acquire the basic skills for effective and meaningful communication in German. We will focus on the five essential skills for communication: understanding, speaking, reading, writing and culture. After successful completion of this course, you will be able to talk about what your childhood, give directions, and negotiate travel and health situations. You will also begin to discuss more complex aspects of family, the arts and multi-cultural society. This course is conducted in German. Expectations and Assignments: Participation Successful language learning depends on active class participation. Class participation includes coming to class prepared (i.e. completing all homework), as well as checking and CitLearn for announcements. Your participation grade will reflect your contribution to class (for example: being present and punctual, answering and asking questions, being prepared when called on, being a team player in group work, and avoiding English, staying awake and focused in class, not leaving the classroom during the 50-minute period, and bringing the required materials). Attendance Attendance is mandatory. Official Citadel attendance policy will be followed: Students must provide documentation of an effort to reschedule guard duty when it conflicts with class, and tests shall not be missed due to guard duty. Furthermore, "For any student, absences, whether authorized or unauthorized, in excess of 20% of the meetings of a particular course can, at the discretion of the professor, result in a grade of F in that course" (The Blue Book). Homework Your success in learning German and ability to participate in class depends heavily on the time spent studying and preparing outside of class. All homework is listed on the Semesterplan below. The Assignment Key below provides specific instructions for how to complete different types of assignments. No late homework will be accepted, except in extraordinary circumstances and by arrangement with the professor. (Forgetting, printer problems, guard duty, training exercises, etc, do not qualify as extraordinary circumstances.) Your three lowest homework grades will be dropped. In the event of a personal or family emergency, notify your professor as soon as you are able so that accommodations can be made. Assessment: Participation: Grade assigned for 4 periods of approx. 3 weeks each Homework: Daily. Includes credit/no credit and graded assignments Writing: 5 short writing assignments (Aufsätze) Tests and Quizzes: 4 chapter tests (Prüfungen), 4 vocabulary tests, quizzes when necessary Final Interview: An oral exam during the last weeks of the semester Final Exam: A written exam on the date scheduled by the college: cumulative Students with an A in the course may skip the written final. Scale: (%) A= B=89-80 C=79-70 D=69-60 F=59-0 No Make ups: If a test is missed and you have informed your professor appropriately, the next test will count for double points. If there is no following test, the previous test score will be used. Failing to notify your professor in advance of missing a test or missing a second test may result in a grade of 0 for that test. Emergency? Contact your professor. 1

You are also encouraged to seek out the German tutor at the Writing and Learning center. Consult with your professor before receiving help from anyone else.
