Description:

Prereq. CHI 103 or prior assessment - This course is intended for students who have completed Elementary Chinese 1 or who have taken a comparable first-semester Chinese-language course at another institution. The goal of this course is to have the student triple her spoken vocabulary and written characters and to learn more complex sen- tence patterns. The student has an opportunity to strengthen decoding skills using online dictionaries to translate menus, greeting cards, and local signs in Chinese. Greater proficiency in the spoken language allows for more collaborative exercises, such as skits, role playing, and games. There is a special workshop on brush-and-ink calligraphy and another on "ice-breaker" Chinese for studentsparticipating in the China study tour.
