Your students are changing. Technology is changing. The idea of the classroom is changing. Now, the way your students learn German is changing as well. In preparation for this edition of Kontakte, we conducted extensive research, employing a wide array of research tools including surveys, focus groups, and ethnographic studies to identify the key goals and challenges of the introductory German course. Not surprisingly, communication and cultural competence are among the top goals of the majority of instructors, who are facing the challenges of fewer contact hours, budget cuts, and new course formats that make these goals difficult to achieve. The Seventh Edition of Kontakte continues to offer a truly communicative approach that supports functional proficiency while responding to these changing needs in new and exciting ways. As a direct result of our research, we created Connect German (www.connectgerman.com), a powerful online learning platform that includes the ebook, the online Arbeitsbuch, an audio/video chat feature, and a brand-new video filmed in Leipzig, thereby offering a flexible solution for the evolving introductory German landscape. Enhanced by these powerful new digital tools, the Seventh Edition of Kontakte does the following: Engages students in authentic culture and inspires them to communicate with confidence by providing them with the natural contexts they need to develop their language skills Provides tools for flexibility and easy course administration Achieves consistent results across the different course formats offered: face-to-face, hybrid, and online. *Connect German, including but not limited to the workbook/lab manual, the video program, and chat tools, is sold separately and does not come automatically with the purchase of the textbook.

This best-selling German text is based on and inspired by the Natural Approach, pioneered by Tracy D. Terrell. Students learn German through communicative contexts with an emphasis on the four skills and cultural competence, with grammar functioning as an aid to language learning and not as an end in itself. The abundance of interesting personalized activities and a wide variety of authentic and author-written readings in Kontakte ensure that students are exposed to rich language input, critical to language acquisition. A full range of supplements, including video, audio and interactive online materials, provide multiple opportunities to practice newly acquired vocabulary and grammar and further refine developing language skills.

This introductory German text emphasizes communicative proficiency. The method, called the natural approach, stresses the use of activities in a natural and spontaneous classroom atmosphere. Grammar explanations and exercises are aids to learning only, not the main part of the text. The materials are also comprehension-based: comprehension (listening to and reading German) is viewed as a prerequisite to using German (speaking and writing). This is the German equivalent of the Spanish text, "Dos Mundos".

Kontakte Mit Einer Anderen Dimension - DVD 4260110586511

Russland war und ist ein Bindeglied zwischen Europa und Asien. Die wirtschaftlichen Beziehungen zwischen Deutschland und der Russischen Foderation sind fur beide Seiten von besonderer Bedeutung. Doch: Wie europaisch sind Russen tatsachlich? Das Trainingsprogramm zur individuellen Vorbereitung auf berufliche Kontakte in Russland soll helfen, sich in die Lage des russischen Mitarbeiters oder Geschaftspartners zu versetzen, um kulturell bedingten Problemsituationen besser begegnen zu konnen. Die im Training dargestellten typischen Situationen basieren auf Interviews mit in Russland arbeitenden Deutschen. Es werden zu den Beispielen Erklarungen und Losungsempfehlungen gegeben sowie der kulturhistorische Zusammenhang beleuchtet.
