3 hours lecture, 2 hours lab per week CHNS 101 is a course designed for beginners of Chinese. Study of basic structures of the Mandarin Chinese language with emphasis on listening, speaking, reading and writing skills. Students will gain these four skills in standard Mandarin Chinese, attaining approximately the Novice-High level on the ACTFL-ETS (American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages) proficiency scale. Upon successful completion of CHNS 101, the student should be able to: Listen and know the meaning of short, learned utterances and some sentence-length utterances, especially where context supports understanding and speech is clear. Comprehend limited vocabulary and some simple questions/statements about family members, age, address, time, interests, and other daily activities. Speak short statements and ask simple questions, primarily by relying on memorized utterances but occasionally by expanding these through simple recombinations of those elements. Read and identify a limited number of character components and high-frequency characters in areas of immediate need. Read for instructional and directional purposes, standardized messages, such as some prices in stores, time/date on schedules, etc. where specific characters and combinations have been memorized. Write simple fixed expressions and limited memorized material and some recombination thereof. Supply information on simple forms and documents. Write names, numbers, dates, own nationality, and other simple autobiographical information as well as some short phrases and simple sentences.

3 hours lecture, 2 hours lab per week Prerequisite(s): CHNS 101 or satisfactory score on the language placement test. CHNS 102 is a continuation of CHNS 101. The four skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing in Standard Mandarin Chinese are further developed. Students will gain these four skills, attaining approximately the Intermediate-low level on the ACTFLETS (American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages) proficiency scale. Upon successful completion of CHNS 102, the student should be able to: Listen and understand sentence-length utterances which consist of recombination of learned elements in a limited number of content areas, particularly if strongly supported by the situational context. Comprehension areas cover such basic needs as eating, lodging, transportation, and receiving simple instructions and routine commands. Speak and handle successfully a limited number of uncomplicated task-oriented and social functions pertaining to such topic areas as those mentioned above. Ask and answer questions, initiate and respond to simple statements and maintain face-to-face conversation. Perform such tasks as introducing oneself, ordering a meal, asking directions, and making purchases. Read for basic survival and social needs, simple connected, specially prepared material and puzzle out pieces of some authentic material as it reflects similarity to specially prepared material and/or to high-frequency oral vocabulary and structure. Puzzle out very simple hand-printed messages, personal notes and very short letters which are written by a native speaker experienced in dealing with foreigners. Decode one or two elements from simplest connected texts dealing with basic personal and social needs, such as signs, public announcements and short, straightforward instructions dealing with public life. Write and meet limited practical writing needs. Write short messages, postcards, and take down simple notes, such as telephone messages. Create statements or questions within the scope of limited language experience. Material produced consists of recombination of learned vocabulary and structures into simple sentences on very familiar topics.
