DLL 5 "Technology and Media in the German Classroom"

About DLL Basis Unit 5

In language lessons, teaching and learning media support the learning process right from the start. The wide selection of media makes communication possible in a way that reflects reality outside the classroom for many learners. It’s important that teachers are able to select and curricularise teaching and learning media so that it’s suitable for their target group, and that they know how to adapt supplementary material for their own lessons.
