LECTURER: Ina Gittel / lecturer of DAAD. Tel. No. 9653090 COURSE STATUS IN THE CURRICULUM: Compulsory discipline for full/time students in General Mechanical Engineering at the Faculty for German Engineering Education and Industrial Management of the TU of Sofia for obtaining a Bachelor Degree. DESCRIPTION OF THE COURSE: Most of the students in this program will have professional development in both cultures – Bulgarian and German and in their future they will be in the position of intermediaries between Bulgaria and Germany at different levels as well as in various work related aspects. Therefore the didactic principles on which the course is based are cultural parallelism and comparison, illustration by examples and an open minded approach to cultural differences. German Studies 1 uses topics connected to the relationship between individual and society (cultural differences and the forms of their manifastation, cliches and prejudices, etc.) and between state and society (boundaries, Germany in Europe, the federal system in Germany, municipal government, ect.). AIMS OF THE COURSE: The aim of the course is to provide students with profound knowledge about the functioning of the German society as well as historical developments contributing to the countries current form. The improvement of the four basic language skills – reading, listening, writing and speaking is thereby another important ojective as the materials used and the tasks given include all language skills. Furthermore students will improve their skills for presentations in front of an audience as well as their academic writing skills. These also includes learning techniques for the research of a given or chosen topic. German Studies 1 strives for helping students development as personalities open to a foreign culture, being tolerant and having skills for analysis, comparison and transfer of historical, social, economic and cultural fects, phenomena and relationships at their disposal. TEACHING METHODS: Traditional lecturing is rarely used at lectures where students participate with their own material on the discussed topics. During seminars team work on a given project takes place, the final aim being the working out and the presentation of an educational product, for example a report, interview, wall newspaper, album, etc. Self-study herby plays an important role. PREREQUISITES: German language proficiency at C1 level (GER) is required.

LECTURERS: Senior Lecturer Diana Pazaitova– 965 – 31 – 62Technical University – Sofia, DFLTAL COURSE STATUS IN THE CURRICULUM:Compulsory for full-time students of General Mechanical Engineering specialty of the Faculty of German Engineering Education and Industrial Management at TU- Sofia required for obtaining Bachelor’s Degree. AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF THE COURSE: The aim of the foreign language education is to enable students in using scientific literature and specialized texts, as well as to enhance their communicative competence adopting culturally appropriate modes of behaviour relevant to the specific situation and apply effective compensatory strategies in overcoming communicative problems. The additional practice of micro and macro language skills are targeted at preparing students for successful participation in international scientific conferences and symposia, graduate and post-graduate exchange programmes sponsored by the EU or bilateral agreements with partner universities. DESCRIPTION OF THE COURSE:The students are taught according to a flexible modular system, adjusted to the three proficiency levels identified by means of an entry test in English. The programme of study consolidates and enriches the linguistic knowledge acquired in secondary schools with new categories, notions and lexis characteristic for each discipline. By means of authentic course books the students gain in-depth knowledge in grammar, syntax, word formation, phraseology, and specialized terminology. English language education builds up communicative abilities and competence allowing students to socialize and function effectively in real-life professional situations. They develop the four language skills / Listening, Reading, Speaking and Writing/ aiming to facilitate their adequate auditory and visual comprehension of information, offered in English, as well as their active ability to respond in keep with the stylistics and norms of multicultural communication. The correlation general to specialized language is 1:2. The modern equipment and facilities of the Department of Foreign Language Teaching and Applied Linguistics allows the use of up-to-date audio-visual and technical equipment such as: language labs, VDU, cassette recorders, and computers. PREREQUISITES: The course of study requires basic knowledge of the language and elementary rules of grammar and basic lexical items and their use, taught at secondary schools and vocational schools. TEACHING METHODS: The selection and structuring of syllabus content is carried out by way of an integrated theoretical-practical communicative approach, taking into consideration the functional needs of students to use the language competently in cross-cultural and professional medium. Various interactive methods of classroom management are applied, such as discussions, case studies, role plays, presentations, theme projects (with on-going consultations with the respective lecturer), computer tests in grammar and lexicology on different proficiency levels, as well as translation of specialized scientific texts. The modular principle of foreign language teaching allows for a synthesis of a learner-centered seminar work in a given sphere with individual forms of study and self-study. METHODS OF ASSESSMENT and EVALUATION: At the end of the first semester students’ books must be signed to verify semester training completion based on student attendance and participation in seminars and workshops, presentations and written tests. Following completion of the period of training throughout the two semesters, the final grade is made on the basis of an exam comprising two components – written (50%) and oral (50%) one. The final exam is administered in the form of standard EU recognized exit test on several proficiency levels to estimate the achieved progress and quality of acquired knowledge as well as of discussions on general topics and on abstracts from pre-assigned translation of authentic scientific texts in a subject-specific field from English into Bulgarian language. LANGUAGE OF INSTRUCTION: English. RECOMMENDED TEACHING MATERIALS: A number of course materials and textbooks have been developed under European projects and in collaboration with the British Council in the sphere of specialized language teaching for science and business purposes. There are rich resources available at the English Departmental library and multimedia packages of original software programmes in FLT.
