Course Goals and Objectives
By the end of this course at the appropriate level, you are expected to be able to:
SPEAK well enough to describe, narrate, ask, and answer questions in the present tense—and with less accuracy in the past simple—on everyday topics, including personal interests or activities, likes and dislikes, weather, university studies, and travel.
UNDERSTAND spoken language with sufficient skills to grasp main ideas and some supporting details in short interactions—whether direct or recorded—related to topics such as weather, travel, interests and hobbies, relationships, and past experiences.
READ AND COMPREHEND the main idea and supporting details in edited or unedited materials (including short stories, simple poems, announcements, tourist brochures, and travel information) in relation to the given context.
WRITE sentences, paragraphs, and short compositions on familiar topics, take notes, and compose letters related to personal interests and practical needs.
IDENTIFY basic similarities and differences between cultures presented in the course, as well as key distinctions between foreign and native cultures, developing an awareness of the risks of stereotyping and the complexities of cultural issues.
EXPAND your use of the foreign language beyond the classroom by reading literary and non-literary books, watching films and TV programs, listening to online radio or music, and exchanging messages or emails with a close friend or colleague, among other activities.
