This mini-course is intended to help students become more confident users of German grammar. It will be an interactive class where grammar topics from German 102, 231, and German 232 will be taught and practiced through audio-visual clips (daily news, movie trailers, commercials) and current authentic texts (newspaper and magazine articles), in addition to written exercises. All the class material will be provided on Canvas. The goal of this class is to make it easier for you to succeed in your other German classes, while also exposing you to some interesting aspects of German culture.
Students who took German 300 should not take this course.
