THE USE OF A DIGITAL WORKSHEET DURING THE UNIVERSITY STUDY OF GERMAN AS A FOREIGN LANGUAGE

Abstract

In education, more and more digital media is being introduced into the classroom. Most of the time, experts explain in detail the use of digital worksheets from the teacher's point of view while the learner's perspective is considered less often. Therefore, the following article tries to determine, based on a qualitative empirical study, how the use of digital worksheets is perceived and evaluated by students of German language and literature. The subjects of the study were 1^st year students of German language and literature in Slovenia. After working with the digital worksheet, the subjects answered a questionnaire to reflect on their entire work process. The obtained data were analyzed and interpreted. The results of the study can serve as a stimulus for teachers of German language to plan their lessons aiming not only to the use of digital media by themselves in their teaching, but also to make the lessons more student-centered and self-directed by the use of digital media.
