(A2 is the learning outcome of GER10110 which is the pre-requisite for GER20240 and to GER20250. Students are deemed to have reached if they have passed GER10110 with a B- or higher.)]]> 2019-10-10 09:08:55 UTC https://padlet.com/eva_kilar_magdziarz/cl11tzlwnxw3/wish/396028489 German:Even if these students have passed GER10110 and are deemed to be (close to) A2, they have often not engaged with German for a number of months and have therefore taken a step backwards. Also, not all students have achieved B- or higher in GER10110 but may still have to do this course depending on their program. Students are made aware of the challenges and encouraged to address their possible shortcomings through independent study. They are also repeatedly to the German Grammar Book, which is particularly suited to independent study. https://padlet.com/eva_kilar_magdziarz/cl11tzlwnxw3/wish/396029409 2019-10-10 09:11:19 UTC https://padlet.com/eva_kilar_magdziarz/cl11tzlwnxw3/wish/396029409 German:Yes. https://padlet.com/eva_kilar_magdziarz/cl11tzlwnxw3/wish/396031486 2019-10-10 09:18:10 UTC https://padlet.com/eva_kilar_magdziarz/cl11tzlwnxw3/wish/396031486 German: The exit level is B1 for students who pass the module with a grade of B or above. https://padlet.com/eva_kilar_magdziarz/cl11tzlwnxw3/wish/396031540 2019-10-10 09:18:22 UTC https://padlet.com/eva_kilar_magdziarz/cl11tzlwnxw3/wish/396031540 German: According to the module descriptor, students who have passed GER20240 with a grade of B or above are deemed to have reached B1 or are near B1. As not all students who register to GER20250 have achieved those grades, the entry level is often significantly below B1 at this point. https://padlet.com/eva_kilar_magdziarz/cl11tzlwnxw3/wish/396031932 2019-10-10 09:19:44 UTC https://padlet.com/eva_kilar_magdziarz/cl11tzlwnxw3/wish/396031932 German: In year 1, students have to take German Beginners modules.
