Spanish III A
Spanish III A is an advanced intermediate-level Spanish course designed for independent learners. Through videos, audio clips and a variety of interactive activities and cultural interviews, students will see and hear native speakers around the Spanish-speaking world. Students of this online Spanish language course will themselves participate in both written and oral activities designed to incorporate the new vocabulary and grammar they have learned in each unit.
Key components of this online Spanish course are unit assignments, virtual classroom participation, discussion board posting and a term project. Students are assessed unit by unit via vocabulary tests, completion of assignments, participation in virtual classroom discussions, timely postings to the discussion board, a final examination and successful completion of a term project. Suggestions will guide students in how to best complete these tasks. Specific learning outcomes and reading assignments are provided on a unit by unit basis.
Spanish III A is intended to be the first half of a third year Spanish course, at the end of which successful students will be able to participate in everyday conversations with considerable fluency in Spanish. Both Spanish III A and Spanish III B have been designed so that students can proceed at an even pace throughout the semester. However, both Spanish courses require that students do additional reading in the first unit of the course and the fifth unit of the course. Therefore, it is important that students familiarize themselves with the sign-in process and begin reading immediately.
