Welcome to JETZT Deutsch lernen (Learning German now with jetzt.de). JETZT Deutsch lernen is a cooperative project between the Goethe-Institute and the Justus Liebig University Giessen, Germany. Its aim is to create and research its online learning environment for intermediate and advanced learners of German as a Foreign Language. It focuses on the development of reading and listening/visual listening skills and creative writing. The tasks and exercises are based on articles published on jetzt.de (the German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung's online news magazine for the young) and on video sequences which cover similar topics and are produced by the project team. Interactive components of the learning environment include a tutored chat and a wiki writing workshop which allow learners worldwide to communicate with each other and with native speakers of German.

Since this project is directed at learners of German as a Foreign Language and their teachers, you will find that the pages have not been translated into English. However, we have provided a short introduction in English. To view the project's learning environment, please refer to the pages in German.
