This course aims to develop and improve all German language skills by building on the skills acquired in GRMN3503.

Students’ ability to appreciate cultural products of German speaking societies will also be further enhanced.

Objectives 1. To develop listening, speaking, reading and writing skills in the German language at an intermediate to more advanced level
2. To develop specific and interactive German language skills as they occur in everyday social contexts
3. Locate and navigate authentic websites in German
4. To develop the capacity to think critically and organise time effectively when carrying out particular set tasks of translation or writing compositions in German.
Content Areas that will be treated in GRMN3504 include:
* Consolidating language skills necessary for tertiary study in Germany
* Translation
* Writing set pieces such as free compositions in German on a range of everyday social topics.
