Learning outcomes

Course contents Creative writing of literary texts is the realization of students' own creativity with the aim of designing literary texts within DaF. The process of creating literary texts should be based on the use of up-to-date, easy-to-use teaching principles based on play and the development of one's own imagination. Techniques that are otherwise passed in the abstract form of theoretically oriented courses on the history of literature and literary theory are practically oriented in the case of this course. The content of the concept of literature will be passed on in this way not only as a science, but also as a practical, practically focused activity that is favored by many, for example, American and German universities.
Students will learn to produce several kinds of textes, from small stories to essays.
