ADVANCED SPANISH LANGUAGE AND

PREREQUISITE: MLSP3001, GRADE OF C- OR BETTER
As a continuation of Advanced Spanish Language & Culture I, this course is part of a proficiency-based language program designed to provide maximum opportunities for students to develop functional listening, speaking, reading and writing skills in Spanish. The goal of the course is the acquisition of a useful communicative command of the language at the “Intermediate-Mid to Intermediate High” levels on the national scale as established by the American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL) and the Educational Testing Service (ETS). This goal will be realized through maximum exposure to authentic target-language input (oral and visual), active oral and written practice of real life language tasks of “functions” (e.g. giving suggestions, making plans for the future, etc.) and exploration of cultural subtleties conveyed by language, thought and customs.
