INTERMEDIATE ARABIC II

Catalog description

This course is based on the integration of learning outcomes across interpersonal, interpretive, and presentational modes of communication. Students accomplish real-world communicative tasks in culturally appropriate ways through Modern Standard Arabic and through colloquialisms of at least one dialect as they gain familiarity with products, practices, and perspectives of the target culture(s). Students learn grammar, vocabulary, and structures to enable them to meet functional performance goals at this level and to build a foundation for continued language learning. During this course, students perform consistently in the Intermediate range while a few abilities may emerge in the advanced range.
