Set around 12 German-speaking people and the worlds they live in, WELTEN focuses on the development of communicative competence and literacy through texts in various modalities. WELTEN helps students to acquire and practice functional language abilities while at the same time developing interpretive and analytical competencies and an appreciation of the aesthetic qualities of language. Through current, relevant, and meaningful materials, students learn to use language while seeing the world through the eyes of others, ultimately learning about themselves and the world they live in. With its innovative and integral video program, its contextualized and learner-centered presentation of grammar, and its unique selection of engaging texts from a broad range of genres, WELTEN brings a new approach to introductory German.

About the Author

Prisca Augustyn is an Associate Professor of German and Linguistics at Florida Atlantic University, where she has been in charge of German since 2002. Prisca teaches courses in German, linguistics, and semiotics. Her interest in how we form subjective models of the world through language informs not only her research in linguistics/semiotics, but finds expression in the development of teaching materials and methods for the classroom. She and her co-author Nikolaus Euba (University of California, Berkeley) recently finished the third edition of Stationen, a textbook for intermediate German. Selected as the AATG 2013 Post Secondary Outstanding Educator, Nikolaus Euba holds an M.A. degree in "Deutsch als Fremdsprache" from the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitat in Munich. Before coming to California, he taught and coordinated German courses at Miami University (Ohio) and the University of South Carolina. At Berkeley, he directs the German Language Program and mentors the Graduate Student Instructors who teach language courses. His research interests focus on integrating (literary) texts into foreign language teaching and learning, a topic on which he frequently develops workshops and gives presentations. He is a consultant to the College Board's AP program in German and to the National Evaluation Series (NES). After having directed and taught numerous summer study workshops in Heidelberg, Jena, and Berlin, he now coordinates the language program at FUBiS (Freie Universitat Berlin in the Summer). He is a recipient of the Star Award for Excellent Service to the Student Community (1998), of the Mortar Board Excellence in Teaching Award (2001) and of UC Berkeley's Faculty Award for Outstanding Mentorship of GSIs (2007).

Interesting subject matter that clearly depicts life, culture and attitude of Germany. It's also nice that there is some material is about life in other German-speaking countries (Austria and Switzerland).

Modern Take on Learning a Language

Reviewed in the United States on 11 October 2015

Verified Purchase

A modern take on learning a new language. I really appreciate the audio and video included to help immerse you in the language and learn the accents. There are still some bugs and typos on the iLrn and I wish access was unlimited rather than only two years, but two years is pretty reasonable. A fun textbook overall.

This is by far the worst language textbook I've ever seen

Reviewed in the United States on 16 January 2017

I've taken quite a few language classes. 4 years of Spanish, a semester of French, and a semester of German. This is by far the worst language textbook I've ever seen. It isn't set up in a way that's conducive to learning a language at all. It's been a while since I've cracked this open, but I don't think it even teaches verb conjugation until at least chapter 3, which we didn't get into until 2 months into my Intro to German class. Honestly, the HBO book about learning to speak Dothraki is better at teaching languages than Welten. If you have a professor that uses this book, expect to pay another $20-$30 in supplementary materials to actually teach you the language. I recommend Ultimate German: Beginner-Intermediate. I started using that instead of this two weeks into my class and managed to have the highest score in the class on our first test. :)
