HEIMSEITE

Diese Webseite sammelt deutschsprachige Texte, Fotos, Links und andere Materialien zum Thema moderne Architektur. Hier findet man Informationen zu wichtigen Architekten und berühmten Bauwerken, Texte und Zeugnisse, deutsche Fachbegriffe mit ihren englischen Entsprechungen, sowie Links zu anderen deutschsprachigen Webseiten. Die Auswahl wurde vor allem unter dem Gesichtspunkt der Architekturentwicklung im deutschsprachigen Raum in den ersten sechs Jahrzehnten des 20. Jahrhunderts getroffen.

This website was conceived in the context of the "Languages Across the Curriculum" program at Brown University, an initiative of the Center for Language Studies. It is designed to provide easy, convenient access to German materials for students participating in the German discussion section of the course, HA 85: Modern Architecture, taught by Professor Dietrich Neumann, Associate Professor in the History of Art and Architecture Department of Brown University. The "Languages Across the Curriculum" program seeks to provide opportunities in the curriculum for students to use their second language skills in the study of a variety of academic subjects. In the process we hope that participants will maintain or expand their second language abilities, while simultaneously also developing a lasting habit of applying their language to the study of their major discipline and other areas of interest.

This website has been designed by Wijitleka Marome, David Kanig and Merle Krueger, with funding provided by the Office of International Programs and the Center for Language Studies at Brown University, and the Consortium for Language Teaching and Learning.
