III. Online Exercises: Didaktische Entwürfe
A. Internet Features and Advantages
The maze of interactive and multimedia materials on the World Wide Web can
be transformed into an instructional hub with digital spokes supporting
all aspects of foreign language studies from reading to writing, and from
research to publishing. Working with the web as a convenient learning tool
enables students to simulate immersion experiences in the target culture
which are highly motivating and often lead to task oriented
extra-curricular studies.
The authentic, current, and interactive quality of Internet
resources in the form of texts, sounds, symbols, images, and moving
pictures accounts for the medium's broad appeal. Working with these
multimedia materials allows language students to establish crosscultural
contacts, and experiment with virtual forms of role playing and online
identities. In these collegiate partnerships and discoveries lie the
primary rewards for students' efforts to appropriate new learning
technologies. Most enjoy the exploratory nature of the electronic
frontier, and are quite eager to tap into these exciting new knowledge
domains.
Listed below are some of the unique qualities of the Internet
which account for the medium's effectiveness as a teaching and learning
tool. The best exercises draw on the web's interactive, multimedia, and
hypertext features. They involve structured as well as open-ended
activities with branches for all levels of proficiency to awaken students'
curiosity, and challenge their notions of literacy.

to advanced levels of proficiency. Listed below are some of the best
examples, including some ESL [English as a Second Language] exercises to
provide insights and inspiration for further work:

IV. Teaching with the Web. Modelle, Vorschläge, Entwürfe
1. The Net as Information Hub
The World Wide Web can be used as a multimedia outlet and information hub
which offers students instant access to course materials and related
resources. A well constructed server hub allows students to research
subject fields from many entry points, thus providing valuable tools and
guidelines for extra-curricular explorations and independent study
projects.

2. The Web as Conversation & Composition Prop
The web with its multimedia resources offers language learners an
open-ended forum for reading, speaking, writing, and culture oriented
activities. The scope is almost unlimited, ranging from museum visits and
sightseeing tours to newspaper readings and radio reports.

3. The Web as Cultural Entertainer
Unique learning and entertainment domains exist in the form of online
chat groups, MOOs (multi-object oriented), MUDs, and other forums for
virtual role playing, shopping, and socializing. MOOs offer students
excellent opportunities to improve their foreign language proficiencies,
contact native speakers, participate in playful conversations, discover
idiomatic expressions, learn about current topics, and experiment with
online identities in the foreign language.

4. The Web as a Forum for Intercultural Partnerships
A rewarding way to involve students in reading, writing and speaking
activities centers around e-mail exchanges with native speakers abroad.
Through special listservs or the Goethe-Institute's matching service, high
school and college students can link up, and engage in correspondence
involving personal and academic subject matters. The concurrent classroom
assignments focus on oral or written reports about these information
exchanges, and, perhaps, arrange for student visits abroad. A didactic
expansion of such e-mail projects involves posting information directly on
the world wide web through message galleries and multimedia course books
such as Lt. Col. Sutherland's at the United States Air Force Academy.

5. The Web as Research Ramp
Utilizing the web as a research tool encourages students to become
information scavengers and collectors. Numerous search engines provide
well-marked tracks for information hunting and gathering, all of which are
very simple to use. The results of these web inquiries can be posted as
interactive bibliographies or webfolios. Publishing the clickable resource
lists on Internet course pages provides teachers with oportunities to
assess and exhibit students' works in public. The conceptual framework
behind these course pages resembles the notion of museums or galleries
where visitors can freely explore the exhibits at their own pace.

6. Ideas for Teaching with the Web
With the influx of multimedia technologies, foreign language teaching
began to shift toward more communicative, interdisciplinary, and
interactive modes of instruction. Since the late 1980s, German Studies and
Germanistik began to incorporate computer assisted language instruction.
The contents and formats of many foreign language courses have since
evolved toward more interdisciplinary and individualized delivery modes
which often include online multimedia projects. Listed below are
instructional web sites which reflect the best Internet teaching efforts
and ideas.
