About this course
We build on language acquired in a previous semester or through experience and continue working intensively with the spoken everyday language and more complex written texts. Literature, newspaper articles, TV series, movies, music, politics, and cultural issues are discussed in class. Furthermore, your personal experience while living in Denmark is one of the cornerstones of the class. The aim is to help you gain the experience of being an active participant in the Danish society rather than just a tourist passing by.
