This is an entry-level course in Spanish that assumes no prior knowledge of the language. The course can stand alone and provides a significant introduction to the language, although ideally it would be taken as a two-course sequence with SPA 152. The focus is on development of basic communicative ability in the four language skills (listening, speaking, reading and writing), the acquisition of basic grammar and vocabulary, and on the use of the language in everyday situations. An introduction to the cultures of the Spanish-speaking world is included. The course assumes very active participation by the student.

It then moves to the acquisition and use of more sophisticated language structures and additional, general vocabulary appropriate to everyday situations. An introduction to the cultures of the Spanish-speaking world is included. The course assumes very active participation by the student. Prerequisite: Spanish 151 or equivalent.
