NCEA Level 3 German study guide

NCEA Level 3 German is the highest school-level German qualification in New Zealand's National Certificate of Educational Achievement, sitting above Level 1 and Level 2 German achievement standards and below the separate NZ Scholarship German standard. It is designed for senior secondary learners who can already operate in German and want to extend their listening, speaking, reading and writing across increasingly complex and less familiar contexts. NZQA describes the subject simply as the study of listening, speaking, reading, and writing in German, and publishes separate Level 3 standards, past exams, exemplars, assessment schedules and reports, plus assessment specifications for the level. Assessment is both internal and external: some achievement standards are assessed in class during the year, while others are assessed in the end-of-year external exam. The NCEA Level 3 German study guide has 4 sections and about 1,714 words.
