Zum Einsatz projektorientierter Landeskunde im DaF-Unterricht an der Universität Oran

Abstract

The Projects in the DaF-teaching are to be used in a social environment because they allow the learners to develop the ability to communicate. In this case, however, linguistic communicative competencies are also counted and are based on knowledge and cultural foundations. For many reasons, the conflict and misunderstandings in the country will certainly interfere with the project. From the aspect of interculturalism in the teaching of the DaF, the confrontation with misunderstandings in the country becomes unstable, so this form of work in the classroom becomes a wonderful idea, because learners will experience this country knowledge themselves. In order to make the learners more creative, productive, and active in the classroom, one should awake them firstly, because they do not know the way how they can carry out a project. Project work within the subject area or within the learning material „Landeskunde“ in the DaF-Teaching is of a great importance, although it is not much noticed. In summary, we must stress the fact that the projectoriented language is supposed to be a freelance subject alongside the subjects of “German Speaker Countries” because these experiences within a project creation can be helpful to the learners in the future life.
