Curriculum and Lesson Planning for German Teachers
DLL 6 Curricular Requirements and Lesson Planning
Course Description
The overall goal of this course is for teachers to get an in-depth understanding of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) and its influence on lessons, as well as how CEFR relates to the ACTFL- Proficiency Standards. Teachers will learn to formulate can-do descriptions themselves and recognize their importance for action-oriented lessons. The course will culminate with a 3-week final project (Practical Exploration Project or PEP), in which the new theoretical approaches of the DLL unit are reviewed and assessed in the teacher’s own teaching practice. The Practical Exploration Project initiates changes in the classroom and helps to increase the professionalism of teachers. This course is conducted in German in partnership with the Goethe-Institut USA. Please note that the time commitment does not allow participants to take multiple DLL courses simultaneously. If you are interested in taking more than one course concurrently, you must receive approval from the Goethe-Institut. Direct email inquiries to teacherservice-boston@goethe.de.
