- AAPPL Testing Preparation and Information German 3
Here is the list of potential topics. You may download a copy.
Use this page to do a systems check of your Chromebook.
Be sure to test the keyboard in the language support section. Familiarize yourself with the locations of the characters ä, ö, ü, and ß (looks like a Greek beta β). The umlauts are toward the end of each vowel group. The ü and ß are side by side on the last row..
You might be able to create a row at the top of your writing sections and then copy and paste them in as needed. äöüβ
Experiment further in the demo section below.
The next section on the keyboard set up page shows how to set up language keyboard options, such as German. You can try to add them for Chromebook, but there are two obstacles:
- You may not have the authority to make such a change to your Chromebook.
- If you can make the addition, you would still have to teach yourself the shortcuts or layout of the German keyboard.
Try all the demos for your level of German, but you should at least try the other level as time permits or for extra practice. The two levels largely intersect (see the next section).
German 3 will test Form A.
German 4 will test Form B.
Find information on the AAPPL (ACTFL) scoring levels and the overlap between the two forms.
Here is basic information about the ACTFL proficiency levels.
