Course
Overview
A multi-media, game-based approach
makes this introductory Spanish course different from traditional
approaches to language learning. Advanced teaching techniques
are used to turn compelling adventures and activities into
rigorous lessons in grammar and vocabulary. This course provides
a solid foundation for reading, speaking, writing, and understanding
Spanish and cultivates a passion for the language through
exposure to culture and dynamic experiences of real people
and real places. This course also features cutting-edge adaptive
learning technology that lets students select the learning
style that’s right for them.
Take this course and polish your foreign language skills during summer when you have more time. Take it for enrichment or for course credit. You get half credit for a semester course (4 weeks) and
full credit for full year course (8 weeks).
