The focus is on training students to understand better the spoken and written form of the language. Different reading methods (screening through a text and detailed reading) are used to enhance students´ skills in reading different texts. Students will be trained to express themselves orally and in writing about issues relating to the daily life and interests of young people. Students will practise using dictionaries and there is emphasis on teaching pronouns and different cases of verbs. Students perform various kind of listening exercises in order to understand better topics that are currently relevant. There is emphasis on conversational exercises, which train students to have a conversation on certain topics. Students will have regular speaking opportunities. Writing is practised through various exercises and assignments related to reading and listening materials. Students regularly write short texts related to the course work. Students gather information for their written assignments online, in printed dictionaries, at the library, and the daily newspapers.
There are also various electronic programs used for the preparation of the different projects. Students listen regularly to audio programs and watch Danish films and programs. Students get acquainted with various aspects of the Danish culture. Special emphasis is placed on the independence of students in education, the use of information technology and media, as well as collaboration between students. During the oral examination at their final exam, students bring a project folder with five selected projects and they are expected to present at least one of them.
