SPN 407 - Spanish Interpreting

1 course unit
With a rapidly growing Latino and Hispanic immigrant population, the Lehigh Valley offers Spanish students a unique opportunity to hone their spoken language skills and cultural understanding.  This class blends on-campus preparation in the basic theories and methodologies of oral interpretation with community-based practical experience, investigation, exploration, and reflection.  Work with community partners working closely with Spanish speaking clients is contextualized during weekly classes, providing a solid introduction to local Hispanic/Latino culture and concerns.  Students should expect to commit about 5 hours per week to the community service learning component of this course.
Prerequisite(s): One 400-level course in Spanish or approval of instructor.
