Course Description

Chinese 2 402aB 4 Credits
Chinese 2/ Honors 402bB 4 Credits

NOTE: THIS COURSE COMPRISES THE FIRST TWO TRIMESTERS OF THE CHINESE INTERMEDIATE CURRICULUM.

Using the same teaching method as in Chinese Novice I Honors, material will be presented that builds on the knowledge gained in the first level course. All four language skills of listening, speaking, reading and writing will be further developed. More sophisticated skills, such as sentence patterns and word order unique to the Chinese language, will be introduced. There will be more emphasis on reading and writing than there was in Chinese Novice. As in Novice, cultural aspects of the language will be an integral part of the course. Daily homework is required.

Honors Option: A continuation of Chinese Novice Honors, this course is designed for the needs of students who perform exceptionally well. Special assignments lead to developing active speaking and writing skills. Daily homework and special projects are to be expected.
