SAG MAL - PROGRAM SAMPLER

Instructor’s Annotated Edition • Instructional Design Six-step instructional design Take advantage of the unique, powerful six-step instructional design in SAG MAL. With a focus on personalization, authenticity, cultural immersion, and the seamless integration of text and technology, language learning comes to life in ways that are meaningful to each and every student. Context Begin each lesson by asking students to provide from their own experience words, concepts, categories, and opinions related to the theme. Spend quality time evoking words, images, ideas, phrases, and sentences; group and classify concepts. You are giving students the “hook” for their learning, focusing them on their most interesting topic— themselves— and encouraging them to invest personally in their learning. Vocabulary Now turn to the vocabulary section, inviting students to experience it as a new linguistic code to express what they already know and experience in the context of the lesson theme. Vocabulary concepts are presented in context, carefully organized, and frequently reviewed to reinforce student understanding. Involve students in brainstorming, classifying and grouping words and thoughts, and personalizing phrases and sentences. In this way, you will help students see German as a new tool for self-expression. Media Once students see that German is a tool for expressing their own ideas, bridge their experiences to those of German speakers through the Fotoroman section. The Fotoroman storyline video presents and reviews vocabulary and structure in accurate cultural contexts for effective training in both comprehension and personal communication.
