SPAN302

Intermediate Spanish II

SPAN 302 is an Intermediate-level course in applied Spanish grammar that expands on the topics and skills covered and gained in SPAN 301.  Through this course, students continue deepening their oral and written communication skills (listening, speaking, reading, and writing), intercultural knowledge, and awareness of how language works in specific cultural texts and contexts, representative of the Hispanic World.  Homework assignments will emphasize students’ engagement with personal learning strategies and focus on developing their familiarity with the themes and vocabulary and grammatical structures used in the weekly lessons.  In-class activities will prioritize collaborative learning, guided conversation, and student-led activities.  Each week will close with in-class preparation for the brief listening and writing portions in the homework activities and global course assessments, including an original final project.
