Overview<br />
This course is a beginner’s course in Danish based on the student's situation, where the international<br />
student is staying in Denmark for a couple of years, and thus needs to acquire skills in both spoken<br />
and written Danish. Emphasis is put on the acquiring of vocabulary and pronunciation. Through work<br />
with the textbooks, picture dictionaries, cross words, different games with a linguistic content, field<br />
trips and visits to museums and public service areas close to the school like shops, train station, post<br />
office, etc., the students should reach a basic level of skills in order to help them express themselves<br />
and get on in the different situations of everyday life. As residents of Denmark they should also<br />
become familiar with the Danish country, its culture, history and geography. Through the experience<br />
of living in Denmark the student has an excellent possibility to develop an awareness of differences in<br />
background and cultures.<br />
