BARCSPAN 202 - Intermediate - Advanced Spanish

Institution:

Arcadia University

Subject:

Description:

This is a course in Spanish Language which covers material traditionally taught in second-semester intermediate and first-semester advanced Spanish courses. After a general review aimed at reinforcing language skills and filling in possible gaps, the course will focus on new material. The new grammar concepts will be introduced within specific contexts - either as dialogues or short readings that will highlight cultural aspects. Grammar explanations, drill exercises and performance-based activities, all conducted in Spanish, will follow. Students are often expected to work in groups or in pairs with teacher support; interaction and participation in class are encouraged in various ways - role-playing, simulations, presentations, games etc. All kinds of tasks will be chosen on the basis of learners' needs outside the classroom and will be related to real-life situations, including but not limited to social, work, and university settings. A rich cultural activities' series outside of the classroom, utilizing various linguistic and communicative forms, will be presented, allowing students to apply their skills and learn from real-life situations in relation to social and cultural aspects of Spanish life. Approximately 10 hours of this course are taught through on-site cultural and real-life activities in Barcelona. (Barcelona, Spain, http://www.arcadia.edu/abroad/esBarcelona)
