Institution:

Arcadia University

Subject:

Description:

Pre-requisites: two semesters of elementary college Italian This second year course in Italian moves students towards greater fluency and precision in spoken and written Italian and a subtler command of the more difficult areas of Italian grammar. The course focuses on grammar and culture: grammar is based on a didactic thematic unit using illustrative materials. Grammatical exercises are an integral part of the learning process. Magazine and newspaper articles, short stories in Italian or movies (in this case, a film is shown before the discussion session) are frequently presented to the students to increase their range of vocabulary and to present contemporary Italian culture to the students. After each lesson students are assigned written homework which can be either short compositions, grammatical exercises, readings from literary texts, newspaper article or research projects on a topic suggested by the professor.
