AP German Language and Culture Syllabus
Overview and Overarching Premise of the AP German Language and Culture Course
AP German Language is intended for students who wish to develop their proficiency in all four
language skills: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Students who enroll should already have
good foundational knowledge of the language and culture of German-speaking people. Instruction,
classroom discussion and all written assignments will be in German. Students sign a contract
agreeing to use the target language at all times in this course.
This syllabus blends both the elements of the College Board AP German Language and Culture
course requirements and the North Carolina World Language Essential Standards. When
communicating, students in the AP German Language and Culture course demonstrate an
understanding of the culture(s), incorporate interdisciplinary topics (Connections), make
comparisons between the native language and the target language and between cultures
(Comparisons), and use the target language in real-life settings (Communities). At completion of
the course, students will take an AP German Language and Culture examination.
AP German Language and Culture Learning Objectives
The AP German Language and Culture course identifies six groups of learning objectives for
students across the three modes of communication:
Spoken Interpersonal Communication
Written Interpersonal Communication
Audio, Visual, and Audiovisual Interpretive Communication
Written and Print Interpretive Communication
Spoken Presentational Communication
Written Presentational Communication
AP German Language and Culture Course Goals
The overarching goal of the AP German Language course is to prepare students for success on the
AP German Language Exam. The course emphasizes use of the language for active communication
and develops the following competencies:


having a strong command of vocabulary and structure;
understanding spoken German from native speakers in various conversational
contexts;
1


using authentic materials, like reading newspaper, magazine articles, blogs,
contemporary fiction, and non-technical writings without the use of a dictionary;
fluently and accurately expressing ideas orally and in writing.
Students complete a thorough review of grammar, including conjugations of all tenses and build
their proficiency in areas of speaking, listening, writing, reading, and vocabulary recall. Students
are also encouraged to move beyond language acquisition to language application in community
settings. They develop language skills that can be applied in interdisciplinary contexts and are not
limited to any specific body of subject matter while practicing the organization and writing of
compositions.
The Revised AP German Language and Culture course is structured around six themes:






Global Challenges / Globalisierung
Science and Technology Life / Naturwissenschaft und Technologie
Contemporary Life / Alltag
Personal and Public Identities / Persönliche und Öffentliche Identität
Families and Communities / Familie und Gemeinschaft
Beauty and Aesthetics / Schönheit und Ästhetik
Integrating Themes and Recommended Contexts
AP students are encouraged to consider the interconnectedness of the themes listed above. A unit on
sustainable energy and recycling laws in Germany (Global Challenges) might, for example, touch
upon recommended contexts from more than one theme. Students might see a short movie on the
European Union’s clean air goals to decrease pollution, study changes in inventions like wind
propellers and solar panels over time (Science and Technology), research influences from social
values on environmental policy (Personal and Public Identities), on organic nutrition
(Contemporary Life) and on the aesthetics of eco-friendly architecture (Beauty and Aesthetics).
AP students make cultural comparisons by contrasting their findings with environmental challenges
in the US. In preparation for the exam, student create a portfolio which represents a collection of
readings, summaries, vocab lists, reaction papers, essays, posters, skits and multimedia artifacts for
each unit. This portfolio will be assessed on quality, originality and language proficiency.
