SPAN 302 - SPANISH COMPOSITION
3.00 credits
This course is based on the combination of learning outcomes across Interpersonal, Interpretative and Presentational Modes of Communication. Although the focus will be on improving writing skills, students will be asked to read, listen to conversations and passages, watch videos, and speak with each other and their professor to gain a better understanding of the Spanish language and its people. Students review grammar to improve their mastery of basic syntactical structures (agreement and morphology in the major time frames), increase vocabulary, and use structures in a communicative approach to enable them to meet functional performance goals at the Intermediate level (mid to high). Students realize real-world communicative tasks in culturally appropriate ways and gain familiarity with the products, practices and perspectives of the Spanish language and its people.
