Psychological Advice

To study is a privilege but also an ambitious assignment .

Difficulties with the studies, but also personal, social and health problems can compromise the progress and success of the academic studies.

Ein Studium ist ein Privileg, aber auch eine durchaus anspruchsvolle Aufgabe .

Schwierigkeiten im Studium, aber auch persönliche, gesundheitliche oder soziale Probleme können Verlauf und Erfolg eines Studiums beeinträchtigen.

In 1801 he moved to Aschaffenburg, where he became court doctor to the elector and gave lectures on philosophy and natural history.

He became professor of philosophy and history in 1803, with a special assignment to teach natural philosophy as well.

Until Windischmann was called to the newly founded university in Bonn in 1818, he also held the office of court librarian ( 1811 ) and - under the now Bavarian government - the title of Royal Medical Counsellor.

1801 ging Windischmann nach Aschaffenburg, wo er als Hofmedicus des Kurfürsten arbeitete und zudem an der dortigen Lehranstalt naturhistorische und philosophische Vorlesungen hielt.

1803 wurde er zum Professor für Philosophie und Geschichte ernannt, freilich mit dem besonderen Auftrag , auch Naturphilosophie zu lehren.

Bis Windischmann im Herbst 1818 dem Ruf an die neugegründete Universität in Bonn folgte, hatte er noch das Amt des Hofbibliothekars ( 1811 ) und - durch die mittlerweile bayerische Regierung - den Titel des königlichen Medizinalrates erhalten.

Before long he was asked to work with some of the most innovative architects of his time.

As a result of having received an assignment from Robert Mallet Stevens, he succeeded in gaining a toehold in the inner circle of avant-garde architects, and joined forces with Eugène Beaudouin and Marcel Lods to construct his first technical and functional masterpieces near Paris between 1935 and 1939:

the Roland Garros Aeroplane Club in Buc and the Maison du Peuple in Clichy.

Seine Mitarbeit wurde bald von den innovativsten Architekten seiner Zeit in Anspruch genommen.

Nachdem ihm mit einem Auftrag von Robert Mallet Stevens das Entrée zum engeren Kreis der Architektur-Avantgarde gelang, baute er mit Eugène Beaudouin und Marcel Lods zwischen 1935 bis 1939 nahe Paris seine ersten technischen wie funktionellen Meisterwerke:

den Fliegerclub Roland Garros in Buc und das Maison du Peuple in Clichy.

Even in this digital age, we are still seeing growth in this area of written communication.

He owes his first major project to providence :

Roland Berger uses a small-scale assignment to solve a marketing problem for Touropa, a tourism company, as an opportunity to help merge Touropa, Scharnow, Hummel and Dr. Tigges into giant tour operator TUI.

Other spectacular projects follow, including the innovative vertical market strategy for Trevira, a product of former dyeworks Hoechst, and an equally inventive marketing concept for a large German bank s financial advisory activities.

Das erste große Projekt beschert ihm der Zufall :

Aus einem kleinen Auftrag zur Lösung eines Marketingproblems beim Touristikunternehmen Touropa entwickelt Roland Berger die Fusion von Touropa, Scharnow, Hummel und Dr. Tigges zum Reise-Giganten TUI.

Weitere spektakuläre Projekte folgen, darunter die innovative vertikale Marktstrategie für Trevira, ein Produkt der damaligen Farbwerke Hoechst, sowie ein ebenso innovatives Marketingkonzept für die Vermögensberatung einer deutschen Großbank.

While internally everyone was still working on our optimisation programme fitforfuture at full power, we were able to acquire several new assignments.

Besides large projects such as Stuttgart 21, the high-speed rail link Coburg-Ilmenau or our first assignment from Qatar – works on the new metro in Doha – several new orders in Austria could be acclaimed.

Among them are the North Hospital in Vienna and, together with S IMMO, the QBC project.

Während intern noch mit voller Kraft an unserem Optimierungsprogramm fitforfuture gearbeitet wurde, konnten operativ eine ganze Reihe von neuen Aufträgen akquiriert werden.

Neben Großprojekten wie Stuttgart 21, der Eisenbahn-Hochgeschwindigke... Coburg-Ilmenau oder unserem ersten Auftrag aus Katar – den Arbeiten an der neuen Metro Doha – konnten auch zahlreiche neue Aufträge in Österreich gefeiert werden.

Darunter fielen etwa das Krankenhaus Nord in Wien oder, gemeinsam mit der S IMMO AG, das Projekt QBC.

After the difficult years of the financial crisis, 2012 has been a year of renewal and transition for PORR.

While internally everyone was still working on our optimisation programme fitforfuture at full power, we were able to acquire several new assignments .

Nach den schwierigen Jahren der Finanzkrise war das Jahr 2012 für die PORR ein Jahr des Aufbruchs.

This also applies to amendments.

BIBA may revoke the assignment if the Contractor does not confirm it in writing within two weeks of receipt (assignment confirmation).

Dies gilt auch für Änderungen.

BIBA kann den Auftrag widerrufen, wenn der Auftragnehmer ihn nicht innerhalb von zwei Wochen nach Eingang schriftlich bestätigt hat (Auftragsbestätigung).

Depending on the class schedules the children are being picked up from their schools hourly between 10.30 – 14.00 and dropped off at the after school care centre.

There they eat together and do their homework assignments .

To supply relieve for the oftentimes single mothers or fathers is in the foreground of this service and provides an important part of the effective education of your children.

Abhängig vom Stundenplan werden die Kinder, fast im Stundentakt zwischen 10:30 und 14:00 Uhr, von den entsprechenden Schulen abgeholt und in den Hort gebracht.

Dort wird dann gemeinsam gegessen und die Hausaufgaben erstellt .

Die Entlastung der oft alleinerziehenden Mütter wie Väter steht hier im Vordergrund und leistet damit einen wesentlichen Beitrag an der effektiven Erziehung Ihrer Kinder.

s PC activities can evolve.

For example, your child might want to download and play a new game everyone s talking about, do some Internet research for a school project, or just get a little more PC time to finish a homework assignment .

Die Einstellungen, die sie für die PC-Aktivitäten Ihrer Familienangehörigen festlegen, entwickeln sich im Laufe der Zeit weiter.

Ihr Kind möchte beispielsweise ein neues Spiel herunterladen, über das gerade alle sprechen, muss für ein Schulprojekt im Web recherchieren oder braucht einfach mehr Zeit am PC für seine Hausaufgaben .

The small groups allow for real interactivity, an exchange of opinions and a collaboration between students.

In class, the 4 basic skills are systematically covered: priority is given to oral communication (listening comprehension and speaking) but writing skills are also covered by some activities during the class and more precisely developed at home by the assignment of homework exercises.

Grammar is taught in communicative situations to facilitate the integration of new linguistic structures and provide linguistic tools for rapid and efficient oral progress.

Unsere Französischkurse werden in kleinen Gruppen erteilt, die 6 bis maximal 12 Teilnehmer mit dem gleichen Niveau umfassen, damit die Arbeit den Kenntnissen der Studienteilnehmer angepasst werden kann und die Kommunikation sowie der mündliche Ausdruck gefördert wird, d. h. der Studienteilnehmer wird angeregt französisch zu sprechen.

Während des Unterrichts wird besonders großer Wert auf die mündliche Kommunikation gelegt (Hör-Verstehen und Sprechen), aber auch die Textproduktion wird geübt und später bei den Hausaufgaben vertieft.

Grammatikübungen werden während des Unterrichts in kommunikativen Situationen gelehrt, um den Einbau neuer sprachlicher Strukturen für einen schnelleren und effizienteren Lernfortschritt zu gewährleisten.

Aktivität 12. Wann haben sie Unterricht?

When are Hassan’s, Eva’s and Jan’s classes? Watch their clips „Im Unterricht” and select the correct answers from the choices provided. It usually helps with listening comprehension to read the text provided below before you actually watch the video clips!

Zum Nachdenken :

• What do you think the difference is between „um 9 Uhr“ and „gegen 9 Uhr“? Hint: one is precise („at“), the other is approximate („around“).

• Telling time in German is often referred to as „military time.“ That is actually incorrect. While German formal time is expressed on a 24- hour basis (e.g., „It is 18 hour 22 minutes“ for 18:22), nobody would say 0 – 600 (oh-sixhundred) for 6 am.

Aktivität 13. Sara

Read the following E-Mail from Guido, in which he explains the difference between various types of tests he took at a Swiss university.

Aktivität 20. Ihre Anforderungen und die Anforder- ungen von Ihren Mitstudenten

A. Welche Anforderungen gibt es für Sie in diesem Semester?

Are you going to have a stressful exam period? Or a relatively easy one? Think of the courses you are taking this semester. What requirements do you have in those courses? Fill out the mind-maps and than finish the sentences.

Merk’s Dir: „Es gibt ...” is th German way to say “There is/are ...” Someone might ask you „Gibt es viele Tests?” and you can reply by saying „Ja, es gibt drei Tests!”

B. Welche Anforderungen haben Sie?

Ask one of your classmates what s/he is studying (i.e., major), what courses s/he is taking this semester, how s/he likes them, and what types of assignments s/he has this semester.

Survey : Now the reports are presented in class. Everyone needs to listen carefully and write down the Anforderungen of their peers as well as their Lieblingskurse. What is the most common Anforderung and what is the top Lieblingskurs?

Now view Katrin’s Sprache im Kontext video clip „Anforderungen”

Katrin works at the Universität Würzburg. What types of Anforderungen does she mention? Katrin also mentions two types of courses: Einführungskurse and Seminare. Which Anforderungen are typically used in which course type?

Are there differences in the way Katrin and Jan and Berna talk about Anforderungen? What questions would you have for Katrin (or Berna or Jan) in order to come to understand better the way students at German Universities are evaluated? How would you explain the different types of assignments you do to a visiting German, Austrian or Swiss friend?

Aktivität 21. Erfahrungsbericht

You agreed to help the international office by responding to e-mails and telling students about your university. Many of the students would like to know what it takes to get a degree at your university, how hard they would have to study, how much homework they would have, and whether they would still have a life... In order to prepare your response, first you need to collect some information from your classmates about their practices (you would not want to give somebody advice of this magnitude based only on your experience, would you?).

A. Interview a partner about his/her study practices (feel free to ask additional questions!):

Wie viele Kurse belegst du dieses Semester? Wann musst du zur Uni? Wie viele Stunden sitzt du im Hörsaal? Wann lernst du und wie viele Stunden? Arbeitest du neben dem Studium? Wie viele Stunden arbeitest du jede Woche? Wie viele Klausuren hast du dieses Semester? In welchem Kurs? Hast du Zeit für ein Hobby? ...?

Interviewnotizen :

B. With 2-3 classmates write an E-Mail to a student in Germany who contacted you about your University for further information.

How many courses do people typically take at your university? How many classes each day? How many hours do people study/do homework? How many exams do they have each semester? Do they work? Is there any time left for fun?

Make sure to proofread your entry afterwards so it’s comprehensible to your audience. In addition, make sure you start and end the E-Mail in a polite manner!

Studi-Tipp : When browsing the internet, make sure you set the language of the target website to German to practice navigating the world wide web auf Deutsch! Also, try and use your email account or social media (Facebook, Pinterest, etc.) in German.

Zum Nachdenken:

In Germany, the grading is a bit “backwards” for American learners. ‘1’ (eins) is sehr gut; ‘2’ (zwei) is gut; ‘3’ (drei) is befriedigend; ‘4’ is ausreichend; ‘5’ (fünf) is mangelhaft; and ‘6’ (sechs) is ungenügend. Austria has grades 1–5 (fünf is nicht ausreichend). Switzerland also has the 1–6 scale where 6 is the best grade (except in the Kanton Waadt, where it goes all the way to 10, 10 being the best). What would your grades have been like last semester according to the German grading system? What Durchschnittsnote (average grade, ca. GPA) would you have gotten?

Aktivität 22. Sprache im Kontext: Katrin und Vanessa: Im Ausland studieren

While it is true that most Germans speak English quite well, it is essential to learn a foreign language if you want to study abroad. Watch Katrin and Vanessa’s clips and answer the questions below.

A. Watch the clip and check all words that you hear.

B. Watch the clip again and answer the richtig–falsch questions below.

C. Listen to the clips one more time and answer the questions below.

Fragen zu Katrins Video:

1. Wann hat Katrin in den USA studiert? ________________________________________________________________________

2. Wo hat Katrin studiert? ________________________________________________________________________

3. Was ist in Deutschland die wichtigste Anforderung? ________________________________________________________________________

Fragen zu Vanessas Video:

1. In welcher Stadt liegt Vanessas Universität? ________________________________________________________________________

2. Auf welches Fach will sich Vanessa spezialisieren? ________________________________________________________________________

3. Wo möchte Vanessa vielleicht arbeiten? ________________________________________________________________________

What differences does Katrin mention about the American and German course requirements? What are the Vorteile (advantages) and Nachteile (disadvantages) of each system? Why do you think Vanessa is doing her Ph.D. in Germany (as opposed to the U.S., Canada or Mexico)?

Aktivität 23. Ein kleines Interview

Work with a partner and ask each other the following questions. Write down your partner’s answers. Ask follow-up questions whenever possible.

Aktivität 24. Das schwarze Brett

Very common in universities is the giant column in the middle of the hallway, with layer upon layer of student advertisements: students seeking books, lecture notes, bikes, others offering these or letting you know about a new adventure club. This is „das schwarze Brett”, the campus bulletin board still found at every German university. „Das schwarze Brett” is a gold-mine for the inexpensive furniture you need for your dorm room or the new conversation partner who will swap English lessons with you for German lessons. Take a look at the following advertisements students posted and find out what they were looking for or what they were trying to sell.

A. Anzeigen: verkaufen/suchen/anbieten/informieren.

Look at the ads the students put up on das schwarze Brett (see next page). Which ones are selling/offering something, which are seeking something? Which ones are just presenting information?

B. Wie sagt man?

Read the advertisements carefully and note important phrases and expressions the authors of these ads used. Wie sagt man auf Deutsch?

seeking = ____________________

wanted = ____________________

to trade = ____________________

subletting = ____________________

from (+ date) = ____________________

if you have questions, you can call us at ... = ____________________

Zum Nachdenken : Looking at the language that the students used, what values are expressed? What is important in a room (e.g., lightness, air, heating?)? In a roommate?

C. Noch einmal lesen

Now it’s time to explore these ads a bit more deeply. Read 2 of the Anzeigen that look interesting to you, and fill in the table below.

D. Antworten

Of the Anzeigen you just read, pick one to respond to. Write a script for a phone call you would make to respond to the author of the ad. Express your interest in what the person has to offer. Use as many of the useful phrases as you can from the ads you read. Make sure you include the information that is provided in the given advertisements.

E. Meine Anzeige

Unfortunately, the person tells you immediately (or calls you back to tell you) that whatever he/she had for sale is no longer available! Wie schade! Now you have to write your own advertisement seeking/selling what you need or have for sale. Make sure that you make your advertisement effective, funny, concise, with all the necessary information on the ad! Feel free to decorate it too – that always helps catch the reader’s eye!

Aktivität 25. Im Studentenwohnheim

Now you know a lot about the university in Germany, but you still need to know where to live and other important things you need to be aware of. Read the message Jackie received from her German friend, and answer the questions below.

A. Wohnheime

1. What is a part of the Studentenleben in Anke’s opinion?

2. What kind of sport can you do at the dorms?

3. What do you think „WG“ means?

4. What does Anke suggest, where can Jackie get more information?

In Germany you are required to register at the local municipality once you move to a new place.

B. Meldepflicht

1. According to Anke´s postscript, who has to register at the local municipality?

2. When do you have to register?

3. What does Anke think, how can you register?

4. What do you think might be some reasons for requiring people to register?

5. Is there something similar people in your home state/country have to do?

6. Go to the following website: http://www.wuerzburg.de/de/buerger/b...sen/index.html (Look for Wohnungsbestätigung.pdf) You will find the form to register in Würzburg. What information do they require from you? What do you think about this law?

C. Haushaltspaket

Since you are an exchange student, and you will only be in Germany for one or two semesters, you don’t want to buy all the stuff you need for your apartment or dorm. Thankfully, the „Studentenwerk” (student union) offers a package with all the basic things you need. Source: http://www.studentenwerk-wuerzburg.de (search for “Studying and living in Würzburg” brochure)

1. To whom are Haushaltspakete offered?

2. What things are included in the Haushaltspaket?

3. How much does the Haushaltspaket cost?

4. What is a Kaution?

5. Who is responsible for cleaning the items included in the Haushaltspaket?

6. What do you think is missing? What should also be included in the Haushaltspaket? Alternately, what is in the Haushaltspaket which you didn’t expect to see?

Aktivität 26. Im Studentenwohnheim

Knowing a foreign language can lead you to exciting and wonderful new places. While you are on a study abroad program, you are staying with a host family whose house you can see in the picture on the next page. Next to the labels for the different rooms and items in these rooms, write down what your host family has. Make sure that you use the correct accusative form (and with the correct gender!). We have already furnished the bathroom for you and bought you some essential toiletries as well! ☺

Im Bad/Zimmer gibt es ... (+Akk.)

Note that we use „im” (a contraction of the preposition “in” and the dative article “dem“ ) for the masculine and neuter nouns and „in der” for the feminine nouns. When talking about rooms in our house only the kitchen is feminine and we use „in der”to say what we find in it.

Aktivität 27. Sprache im Kontext: Bernas Wohnung

Watch Berna’s Sprache im Kontext video and identify what rooms she has in her house and what items she has in her own room. Where does she like to buy things for her house?

Auf welchem Möbelstück steht Bernas Computer?

Wo kaufen Sie Sachen für Ihr Zimmer? Warum?

Watch and listen as Sara describes some of the items she has in her kitchen. Jot down some of the kitchen items she specifically mentions. Remember to include the accusative article for each word.

Beispiel: Sie hat einen Ofen

B. Saras Bad

“I spy ...” Which items do you see in Sara’s bathroom(s)? Watch the video a second time if you need to and write down the German names of at least six items she mentions. Again, remember to include the accusative indefinite (eine, ein, einen) article for each word.

Beispiel: In Saras Badezimmer gibt es einen ...

Zum Nachdenken : Is there anything “different“ you notice about Sara’s dorm room compared to how American houses/apartments/dorms are set up? If yes, what did you notice? (Suggestions: think of color, use of space, light, look of furniture, etc.)

C. Saras Schlafzimmer

Watch as Sara talks about her dormroom in Würzburg. In the space below, list as many of the items she mentions as possible (there are 13 items all together), and use the correct accusative article for each noun!

Im Schlafzimmer hat Sara ...

Aktivität 29. Viel Spaß in der Wohnung!

Now that you’ve listed all of the bedroom items Sara mentions, find these 13 words in the word search below (the articles are omitted). The words may be forward or backward, horizontal, vertical or diagonal. This activity will help your spelling!

Jetzt sind Sie dran! What do you have in your own room?

A. Make a list

Write all the items that you already have (haben; column 1), what you really need (brauchen; column 2) and what of these items you would really like to have (möchten; column 3). Let a classmate know what these items are. Make sure you use the correct direct object article (einen, ein, eine, den, das, die, die, etc.) to describe what you have, need or would really like!

Beispiel: Ich habe schon einen Tisch. Ich brauche noch einen Wecker. Und ich möchte sehr gerne einen großen Fernseher haben!

B. Go Shopping

Now that you know what it is that you don’t have (and would like), go shopping at a Swedish furniture store that is very popular in Germany: Gehen wir bei IKEA einkaufen! Sie haben ein Budget von 250 Euro: Welche Objekte auf Ihrer Liste oben wollen Sie kaufen? Sie finden die Preise hier: http://www.ikea.com/de/de/

Oh nein! Es fehlen Pluralfomen. Wie lauten sie?

Aktivität 31. Mein Traumhaus

On a sheet of paper draw a picture of your dream house. Label the different rooms and the items in each room. Remember, this is your dream home, so go wild and be creative! Label at least 15-20 items. Present your Traumhaus to the class! Remember: „es gibt“ and „ich habe“ take the accusative! Use the accusative form of the words in the boxes for exercise 27 (i.e., the words in the second column).

In meinem Traumhaus gibt es ein Schlafzimmer. Dort habe ich einen Schreibtisch, ein Bett, einen Computer und einen Stuhl.

Aktivität 32. Geschmäcker sind verschieden

Talk with a partner. First label the pictures with the correct words and articles. Then talk to your partner. Ask each other how you like the furniture pieces and electronics. Watch out for the accusative case!

Beispiel : S1: Wie findest du den Sessel? S2: Ich finde den Sessel unbequem.

Eigenschaften : praktisch • hässlich • klein • modern • alt schön • bequem • groβ • interessant elegant • unpraktisch • unbequem • genial altmodisch • ganz toll • super

Benutzen Sie E-Mail anders als Ihre deutschen, österreichischen oder Schweizer Freunde?

Aktivität 35. Eine Internet-Umfrage

Are you really into the Internet?

A. Read the statements below and decide if they apply to you or not

B. Klassenumfrage
