Abstract

The European Curriculum Framework or GER (Germanistische Europäische Rahmen) German language proficiency levels are divided into several groups, namely A1- A2 – B1 - B2 – C1 – C2. This requires students to master the four language skills (Speaking, Writing, Reading and Listening). Hörvestehen courses equivalent to level A2 are courses that practice listening skills. In the Hörverstehen Level A2 course, there are still many students who do not pass the listening ability (Hören). This demands that it is necessary to develop Learning Media in the Höverstehen Level A2 course. The Learning Media developed is packaged through learning media based on the Spotify Podcast, Podcast Spotify is a learning media that can be accessed anywhere, anytime and interestingly by integrating aspects of language skills according to the European Curriculum Framework or GER (Germanistische Europäische Rahmen).
