COURSE
DESCRIPTION:
In this 5 unit course you will learn the
Spanish alphabet, basic grammar constructions and vocabulary to help provide
a foundation for further Spanish language studies. The focus
of this course is basic vocabulary and communication skills. We will
work in the present tense and simple future, although we will be introduced
to the Preterite past tense toward the end of the course. Additionally,
this course is designed to provide you with information on Hispanic culture,
emphasizing the diversity among Spanish-speaking countries.
This course is five
(5) credit units because you are working on (and graded on) reading,
writing, listening and
speaking skills.
| In class we will concentrate on listening and speaking skills through a variety of activities. Most reading and writing skills will be addressed through homework, projects and exams. |
| REQUIRED TEXTS:
Dawson: Dicho y Hecho, 6th ed. (textbook) Dawson: Dicho y Hecho, 6th ed. (combination workbook/lab manual) |
The Independent Learning Lab and the on-line Virtual Lab. This course requires a one-hour laboratory session per week. |
| By the end of this course, you will be using all of the material included in the first seven chapters of the text. This is not nearly as intimidating as it may at first appear since the material is progressive, building upon the earlier materials. Once you have a good grasp of the materials in chapter 1, you can apply these in chapter 2; and then you apply the concepts of chapter 1 and 2 in chapter 3. The key is to do a little Spanish each day, rather than doing huge chunks of grammar at one time. |
| Because this summer
course is compacted, you will be learning a great deal of material in a
very short period of time.
It is critical that you are prepared to spend several hours each day -outside of class time- reading the lessons and preparing your homework activities. It is very easy to get behind in a course paced as quickly as this one. |
| I encourage you to form study
groups outside of class and to exchange email or phone numbers with other
students.
This is one of the best ways to study, practice and review. You will need to contact classmates if you are absent. |
| The Final Exam is the last day of class. |
