Welcome to the companion website for Schreiben lernen: A Writing Guide for Learners of German. This text offers a unique approach to assisting German learners at various levels of proficiency in developing their writing skills in eight different genres.
The guide includes information and activities for:
- structuring sentences, paragraphs, and entire texts
- building vocabulary
- raising awareness of cultural issues related to writing for specific audiences and purposes.
By providing writing activities targeted at beginning, intermediate, and advanced learners, the guide will offer instructors a concrete means of unifying their German curricula across individual levels and courses.
As a supplementary writing guide, Schreiben lernen fills a need that exists in German curricula at all levels.
