Bad pronunciation can damage even good knowledge of foreign language making the speech absolutely incomprehensible for the interlocutor. The reduction of academic teaching hours for phonetics in modern foreign language teaching programs (or even complete absence of this subject) can be compensated by innovative methods of teaching foreign languages, for example, e-learning platform Moodle. Experience of practical usage of such course is presented in this article.

Key words: German studies, teaching the German language, phonetics of the German language, e-learning, blended learning

E-LEARNINGSTRATEGIE IM FACH GERMANISTIK: DIDAKTISCHE MÖGLICHKEITEN UND PERSPEKTIVEN DES PHONETIKUNTERRICHTS*

Eine schlechte Aussprache kann auch gute Fremdsprachenkenntnisse zunichte machen und die Rede für den Gesprächspartner ganz unverständlich machen. Im Zusammenhang mit der Streichung der Unterrichtsstunden zum Studium der Phonetik in den gegenwärtigen Studienprogrammen für Fremdsprachenstudium (oder sogar mit dem vollkommenen Fehlen dieses Unterrichtsfaches), können diese Verluste durch neue, innovative Methoden des Fremdsprachenunterrichts wieder gutgemacht werden, zum Beispiel durch LMS Moodle. Dieser Artikel ist das Ergebnis der Erfahrung, die bei der Anwendung eines solchen Kurses gewonnen wurde.

Schlüsselwörter: Germanistik, Deutschunterricht, Phonetik, Netzbegleitung, Distanzunterricht**
