Abstract
The development of German language teaching for special purposes has seen several advancements in recent years, with the incorporation of innovative teaching practices to enhance the learning experience for students. Here are a few exemplary teaching practices in this field. The aim of the paper was to present basic aspects of teaching German language for special purposes. The methodology of the paper was a case-study in undergraduate courses for German, technical terminology at the University of Ioannina, (Greece), as well as in National and Kapodistrian University of Athens (Greece) that resulted in that though the empirical approach of teaching German, the understanding of technical terminology in academic undergraduate courses arose. The findings could suggest that a better understanding of technical terminology can improve students' language proficiency and communication skills, making them more competitive in their academic and professional pursuits. This can lead to improved academic performance, better job opportunities, and increased success in their chosen fields. The necessity to enrich and redesign the curriculum to meet new professional and academic requirements indicates that the current curriculum is lacking in terms of addressing the needs of students in the modern world. This point could be expanded upon by discussing specific ways in which the curriculum can be updated, such as the inclusion of more technology-related content, project-based assignments, and collaboration with industry professionals. Changes in the curriculum and teaching practices can impact the future of education by better preparing students for the evolving demands of their respective fields. By integrating innovative teaching practices, educators can create more engaging and dynamic learning environments, which can foster creativity, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills in students. This can ultimately lead to a more skilled and adaptable workforce that is better equipped to succeed in a rapidly changing world.
