Özet:

In this study we have asked first year students of German language teaching department about their expectation, on the course 'Target contry and culture'. First, our interpretation of the 'course' has been made clear to the students. Then they have been asked to write down what they would like to learn in this course within five sentences in the order of priority. The findings of the study can be summed up as follows: Firstly, prospective German language teachers would like to learn the basic cultural component of the target language community together with the language commonly used by native speakers for daily communication. Secondly, they would like to get informed about the 'Türkish workers' having moved to Germany to provide the work force and following generations in relation to ther integration in to the target culture. All the other expectations can be considered on the aspect of communication.
