Kontakte offers a truly communicative approach that bolsters functional proficiency, while responding to the changing needs of students and instructors, providing digital resources to support them. Throughout the Kontakte program, students have the opportunity to communicate in German in meaningful ways. Students read and listen to comprehensible German and are provided with ample opportunities to use it in interview, information-gap, role-play, autograph, writing, and other personalized activities that are theme-based, not grammar-driven. The video segments - Perspektiven and Interviews -were filmed specifically for Kontakte and feature interviews with a variety of speakers that allow students to hear authentic German in context. They provide models for talking about topics using authentic language, guiding students to communicate with one another. This proven introductory German program maintains its commitment to meaningful communicative practice as well as extensive coverage of the ACTFL Proficiency Guidelines and World-Readiness Standards for Learning Languages (5 C's) as well as the NCSSFL-ACTFL Can-Do Statements: Proficiency Benchmarks.
