Using task-based exercises that required web searches and online activities, this course introduced non-traditional students to the sights and sounds of the German culture and language and simultaneously to computer technology. Through partner work that required negotiation of the net as well as of the language, these adult beginning German students learned how to go online to make travel arrangements, book hotel reservations, and order tickets for various events. The course ended with the students presenting in German a virtual tour of one of their destination cities complete with itinerary of how they would travel, where they would stay, what they would see and do.
