Video Plus German Intermediate and Advanced Comprehension

The use of authentic resources is central in language learning. Access to topical material from newspapers, radio, and television is essential if students are to move on from scripted language and gain a better understanding of German. While most universities have language centers with satellite TV, video, and internet access, building tutorials around recent audio-visual material takes a lot of time and it can be difficult to find exactly the right clip for your teaching needs. Video Plus solves these problems by integrating authentic video clips from Deutsche Welle with structured language exercises. Aimed at intermediate to advanced students of German, this user-friendly CD ROM provides a valuable self-study facility for language comprehension. Based around 10 informative and entertaining video clips from German current affairs programs, the range of exercise types includes "True or False," gap-filling, multiple choice, and "Synonym/Antony." Additional features include a stylish screen design, optional subtitles, and a German-English glossary.
