SPAN 2010

This course is intended for students who have successfully completed Introductory Spanish (SPAN-1010 and SPAN-1020). It prepares intermediate students to use Spanish in real-life situations by emphasizing oral communication and by developing reading and writing language skills. Practical, high frequency vocabulary presented in culturally authentic contexts takes students beyond the basic survival skills acquired in introductory classes and sets the stage for extended interaction. The course gives special attention to matters of syntax and style through written composition and translation exercises. The course also includes oral discussions, conversations, and literary and cultural readings. NOTE: This course may not be taken for credit if any of the following have already been successfully completed: SPAN-3010, SPAN-3020, SPAN-3150, SPAN-4010, or SPAN-4020. Three hours a week
