Elementary Arabic II

Catalog description

This course is a continuation of Elementary Arabic I, and following the communicative approach, it will make an extensive use of the four language skills: listening, reading, speaking, and writing. Likewise, it puts an emphasis on the cultural aspects of Arabic. The teacher will provide a constructive framework for the course and guidance to the students. The role of the students is instrumental in making this course a successful and enjoyable experience. Therefore, you must come always prepared to class, particularly by doing your homework and arriving on time to the class. This course involves full interaction in Arabic between students and the teacher, and speaking and writing assignments are more varied and more demanding than the assignments for Elementary Arabic I.
