The paper deals with the didactic approach of KoGloss in language acquisition and describes the possibilities of its use in acquisition of German language as study-accompanying course. As one of the data-driven approaches types the KoGloss approach ensures research-driven and learner-centered learning, which is particularly important in language instruction in higher education. The keywords given by KoGloss for the learning and teaching method of acquisition of the “accompanying” study subject, i.e. the German language as foreign language (namely as language for special purposes – LSP) are as follows: defining corpus-based special application of words and complex language patterns, learning by doing, cooperation and collaboration between the teaching staff and students.
