communication related fields, marketing, public relations, business, and anyone interested in the course material.

caused the GPA to be lower than 2.5.

3. Program Theme:
Content Focus: Collegetown is the name of the session and is an intensive, accelerated English language and American culture course.

Each week, students explore a different facet of American culture, i.e. food & agriculture, housing, race & ethnicity, and business &
careers. Other topic areas may include environmental protection, government and local politics & mass media. Morning classes focus on
the content learning surrounding those topics, and the afternoon and evening sessions are devoted to field trips and volunteer
opportunities that reinforce the content learned in the classroom setting. This curriculum uses the Fargo-Moorhead community as the
classroom, exploring pertinent topics in American culture with the help of guest speakers: professionals, experts, and citizens.

5. Additional Activities and Field Trip Plans:
7
Afternoon activities and weekend excursions are structured to support and reinforce classroom learning. Weekend programs vary,
depending on the theme. One weekend focuses on nature and the outdoors and the relevant excursions for this theme might include a
field trip to Buffalo River State Park, or Itasca State Park (source of the Mississippi River). Another weekend focuses on the local arts and
culture, and includes trips to local museums, art galleries, or the famous Fargo Theater. Each weekend includes opportunities for leisure
time, and required activities that have a strong social component to facilitate informal conversation in English. Staff also assists students
in preparations for the upcoming weeks’ activities.
Examples of possible field trips and excursions:
1. Arts: Classic American movies (The Wizard of Oz, Ferris Bueller’s Day Off, Field of Dreams), museums, Fargo Theater (history of
local area), and a Street Fair (a community celebration).
2. Sports: Kickball and American football games; attendance at a Red Hawks semi-professional baseball game (tied to learning
about the role of baseball in American culture).
3. Festivals and Holidays: Thanksgiving dinner (tied to unit on holidays and celebrations); typical birthday party.
4. Nature: Trip to Itasca State Park – headwaters of the Mississippi (and a direct tie-in to the environmental unit), roasting
marshmallows at Gooseberry park.
5. Farm: Visits to Pueppke Wheat Farm and Aho Dairy Farm.
6. American Families: Summer barbeque evening with local host families.
7. Leisure Activities: Thunder Road: mini-golf, batting cages, go-karts (purely fun!), Skateland roller skating, baking (one of three
‘activity groups’), tie-dying t-shirts (‘activity group’), bowling (pure fun), Blazin’ Challenge at Buffalo Wild Wings (fun, and food unit), and
others as they arise.
Special Excursion: Three-day weekend trip to Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota – the “Twin Cities” of the Midwest.
Including:
a) History & Art museums that offer interactive exhibits about the culture of Minnesota and the Upper Midwest
b) University
of
Minnesota
–
a
nationally
recognized
university
with
graduate
programs
(http://www1.umn.edu/twincities/index.html), including the Carlson School of Management, which is a recognized leader in business
education in the U.S. (http://www.carlsonschool.umn.edu/ ); and
c) Mall of America – one of the largest indoor shopping centers in the world, with over 500 stores and 50 restaurants
(http://www.mallofamerica.com/)
6. Method of Assessment:
Graded Course Requirements
8
1. Reading assignments – Students will complete selected readings prior to class time. Students must be ready to discuss reading
assignments in the context of the theme or topic.
2. Written assignments – Students will complete weekly written assignments, including essays, reaction papers, and in-class
assignments utilizing vocabulary for the weeks’ topic.
3. Oral Assignments – Students will complete weekly oral presentation assignments. Typically the student will present their
assignment to a small group in class on a pre-determined, designated day.
4. Class attendance and participation – Students are expected to attend each class period. Any missed attendance day must be due
to unexpected illness or arranged through prior approval of the program director. Additionally, when we say “Class participation is
expected,” what does this mean? It is more than physical presence in their seat. It is more than a “Can you repeat that?” comment in class.
It is more than a brief engagement in an in-class exercise and leaving as soon as possible. Students will engage with material, challenging
themselves and each other, asking thoughtful questions, stimulating new ideas, and actively explore the topic reaching or a greater
understanding of the planned topics each and every week. Students will evaluate their own contributions at the end of the course and
the instructors will consider the students perspective in the final assessment for class participation credit.
7. Accommodation Type:
Students live in an air-conditioned residence hall (two students to a room) on the Concordia College campus and have the opportunity to
become familiar with college life in the United States. In-depth explorations of the campus library, academic resource centers and career
center are part of the experience. Students also learn about the local community, American families, and local government.
8. Student Requirements:
Year in the College: Y2&3
Major/Program: Any major is acceptable.
English (or other non-Chinese) Language Requirement:
Basic English competency is the minimum requirement. The Collegetown curriculum accommodates a full range of beginning to
advanced levels of English proficiency. Students are placed in learning groups appropriate to their level of English comprehension.

Goals:

world, what does it mean to truly be “American”? Through exploring basic historical truths about the United States, along with paying
homage to Native Culture, students will learn more about the complexities of American identity. This course will also examine ways in
which students can engage with Americans in their future pursuits. This will be accomplished by case studies, and assignments which
will require students to interview members in the community at large.
5. Additional Activities and Field Trip Plans:
Students will participate in a variety of evening and weekend activities such as: Valleyfair, day trip up to the historic North Shore in
Duluth, Mississippi River tour, Minneapolis Institute of Art, Minnesota History Center, Mall of America, Minnesota State Capitol Building,

9. Student Requirements:
Year in the College: Y2&3
Major/Program: no preference
10. Transportation upon arrival /departure and extra cost:
Suggestion given by Ms. Rebekka Lajos, the Program Coordinator: The return flight is on Sunday, so your students would have to stay on campus or in
Salzburg for one additional night (the program ends on Saturday, August 15). Accommodation on campus would be an additional € 37 for one night.
From Salzburg your students can either take the bus to Strobl (45 Minutes, costs: €6 per ticket) or I could give you the number of a reliable taxi company
(approx. € 90 for a 6-seater taxi).
Taking the bus is a good option I think! It is easy to get to the bus stop from the airport and doesn't take long, plus € 6 for the ticket fare is quite cheap.
We are picking people up from Strobl bus stop and take them directly to their dormitories.
If you would prefer the taxi-option, let me know and I'll give you the name and number of the taxi company. If you chose to take a taxi, I can call the taxi
company for you and arrange that, but you would have to send me a reminder e-mail in July about that.
