That is why the redaktion-D radio language course is special:
  • The German language course radio-D is a further module of redaktion-D multimedia’s spectrum.
  • The radio language course is based on the same story line as the redaktion-D feature films. There are four radio series for each film episode.
  • Deutsche Welle and local radio stations broadcast the radio language course in German and the local language.
  • Part 1 includes an attractive workbook, 2 audio CDs (with dialogues) and a sheet with a translation of the instructions in a range of different languages.
  • It is a language course in its own right but can also be used as a complementary element for the video course as it has a large number of new and exciting features.
  • radio-D and its materials can be used both as a teach-yourself course or in the classroom (listening exercises).
The features of the radio language course are:
  • radio-D consists of two parts and is set out for beginners. Both parts include 26 series with a length of 15 minutes each. Deutsche Welle has been broadcasting part 1 world-wide since May 2005.

  • Similar to the television redaktion-D course two young journalists, Paula and Philipp, investigate strange and unexplained incidents throughout the whole of Germany.
