SPAN 230 - Spanish Conversation


This course is conducted in Spanish and engages students in conversation in a variety of formats toward further developing oral proficiency and vocabulary. Readings, Internet surfing, TV or other viewings on topics of current interest done outside of class serve as the basis for general class discussions through practice in different types of discourse, including narration, description, critical commentary, debate, and dramatic dialogue. Some of the time will be devoted to developing conversational strategies, and much importance will be given to interaction in the classroom. Small group work, emphasis on natural language, and the use of authentic materials (including readings and films) will be among the instructional techniques used.
