DaFnE e Netflix: apprendere il tedesco con l'ausilio delle piattaforme di streaming

DaFnE (Deutsch als Fremdsprache nach Englisch) refers to the acquisition of L3 German after L2 English. Previous skills in the first foreign language can be used to facilitate the acquisition of similar language structures in German. This teaching method can be implemented in Universities’ Language Centres with the help of multimedia tools such as streaming platforms. After presenting the theoretical framework, the paper illustrates the use of Netflix for teaching purposes through the implementation of Language Reactor, which enables the use of content in the original language with subtitles in two other languages. Thanks to Netflix’s extensive catalogue, teachers can prepare teaching units at all levels of learning, thematically different and focusing on different aspects of the language.
