Continue to explore the culture, people, and language of the German-speaking world! This class is designed for people who have completed German III or who have more extensive previous German experience. We focus on three activities: sharing short German texts, discussing stories from a reader, and watching German films. We will meet weekly on Zoom and use the Schoology learning management system. If you have questions, please contact the instructor, Martin Hidy, at mahidy@msn.com. New participants are welcome to join throughout the semester by calling the Community Education Office at 952-975-6940. As this course will be taught virtually, you will need access to video and audio on a computer, tablet or smartphone with internet connection. Zoom is free to use. The Zoom link will be emailed to you prior to class.
