Das Leben, Deutsch als Fremdsprache, Allgemeine Ausgabe, B1: Gesamtband, Kurs- und Übungsbuch

The natural way to learn German.

The new beginner's textbook "Das Leben" by the editorial team Hermann Funk and Christina Kuhn is aimed at adults without prior knowledge who want to learn German both in Germany and abroad. It is available in three volumes or six parts and leads to level B1.

"Das Leben" combines the printed course and exercise book with the multimedia teaching and learning offerings of the PagePlayer app, enabling an intuitive hybrid classroom experience. The modern, well-thought-out didactics and a strong connection to real-life contexts help learners quickly start speaking.

Learner-oriented didactics with rapid learning success.

The textbook is based on the new companion volume to the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR). Its solid didactic concept, based on the Goethe-Institut's "Deutsch Lehren Lernen" (DLL) training series, leads to quick and sustainable learning successes through its learner-oriented approach, exercises with "real-life relevance," and contextually embedded grammar. Learning objectives are made transparent at the beginning; target tasks at the end of each sequence integrate content and language aspects in a hands-on manner.

Dynamic, contemporary teaching.

"Das Leben" offers a rich, stimulating learning environment, enhancing the attractive, magazine-style course and exercise book with differentiated interactive exercises, texts, images, audio, videos, and video karaoke. The entertaining video story "Nicos Weg" from Deutsche Welle complements the diverse offerings for a motivating and varied classroom experience.

Digital teaching and learning with the PagePlayer app.

Just as naturally as learners use their smartphones in daily life, they can easily use it actively and collaboratively in class and while learning at home or on the go with the digital content from "Das Leben." The course and exercise book is supplemented by numerous digital resources.
