Sažetak
The aim of this paper is to point out some features and benefits of video clip
usage in German language teaching. This work was inspired by the need to respect
the totality of students' learning needs in the teaching process, which involves
thinking about and taking into account their habits, interests, experience, preferences,
attitudes, moods, and, above all, their emotions. One medium stood out as a possible
means for encouraging students to independently use German as a foreign language.
It was the video clip that combines text, image and music, which turned out to be the
teaching material that can further stimulate students' emotional and cognitive areas in
the process of learning. It proved to be highly stimulating and effective in the
teaching practice, as described in the article. YouTube as an inexhaustible source of
video clips cannot be disregarded, especially since it can be applicable in class, and
not only in the foreign language class. Learning with video clips enables a different
approach to the target language that is fun and spontaneous, because it provides the
student with ability and incentive to express his/her emotions, imagination,
experience and knowledge. As a result, motivation for the curriculum is increased and
development of language skills is promoted.
