The course focuses on communication in German using complex language in less familiar contexts, through the four skills, Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing. Students study at Level 8 of the New Zealand Curriculum and achieve personal independence with the language.
The emphasis is on communication: about certainty and uncertainty, possibility and probability; developing an argument or point of view, with reasons; communicating the same information in different ways in different contexts; responding to literature and film from German-speaking cultures. The contexts for this communication are chosen in consultation with the students.
