METHODOLOGY BASED ON THE CULTURAL MODEL OF LINGUISTIC AND CULTURAL TEXTS IN TEACHING GERMAN. (SECOND YEAR LANGUAGE UNIVERSITY)

Abstract

This paper proposes a methodological framework for teaching German to second-year university students, emphasizing the cultural model of linguistic and cultural texts. Integrating cultural components enhances understanding of German-speaking societies, fosters empathy, and facilitates communication. Authentic materials like literature, films, and news articles provide immersive experiences. Active participation and collaborative interactions deepen cultural understanding. The methodology cultivates students' ability to identify cultural models in language, enabling comprehension of cultural values and norms. Textual analysis explores themes such as identity and tradition, fostering a multifaceted understanding of German culture. Integration of communicative activities and experiential learning opportunities enables application of knowledge in authentic situations. Overall, this holistic approach equips students with linguistic proficiency, intercultural competence, and critical thinking skills for meaningful engagement with the German-speaking world.
