Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is, in addition to theoretical instruction on language communicative games in the process of teaching German at primary and secondary school, in particular the subsequent practical practice of selected didactic language games. The games are designed to develop all four basic speech skills: listening comprehension, independent oral expression, reading with comprehension, independent written expression. Students are led to independent outputs, to work with materials of their choice and to create their own didactic materials.
During the course, students will get acquainted with the procedures using language games in the acquisition of grammar, vocabulary, in working with text and with realia ( i.e. history and culture), and will enrich practical didactic skills.
