Intensive Beginning Modern Greek

Catalog description

This is an hybrid, intensive, double-credit language course that meets three days a week synchronously in a physical / remote classroom, in addition to three classroom days, in an asynchronous online environment. This proficiency and literacy-oriented, integrated-skills course is designed for students with little or no prior knowledge of Modern Greek. It places emphasis on the acquisition of the four language skills, speaking, listening, reading and writing, within a framework that fosters communicative competences, understanding of discourse and critical insights into Modern Greek societies and cultures, within their world contexts. By the end of MGRK0110, students will be able to transition to MGRK0300. In addition to language and culture-specific work, this course will support the development of transferable skills that will enable students to respond with confidence to the demands of undergraduate study.
