The main research of Prof. em. Michael K. Legutke (Justus-Liebig-Universität Gießen) focuses on early second language acquisition, foreign-language teacher training, and processes of task-based teaching and learning.

In this presentation and workshop, Mr. Legutke shows why a lively German class should be based on a balanced relationship between exercises, tasks and students’ texts. The participants will also discuss the dimensions of such a class with the help of authentic video material of German as a foreign language classes. The combination of presentation and workshop should let the participants reflect on their own practical experience from a new perspective.
