Subject Description

This is a practical introduction to the Spanish language. The student acquires the language largely in genuine or simulated real-life situations (a communicative approach to language learning), rather than through instruction in grammar and translation. Throughout the semester, cultural aspects of the Hispanic world are introduced through the language classes.

Assessment

End of semester 1.5-hour written test; course work consisting of tests and written exercises; and oral work (reading performance and comprehension; oral summaries of written and audiovisual materials; production and presentation to role dialogue; general conversation; transcription exercises; pronunciation exercises).
