ITL 102 - Elementary Italian II

1 course unit

This course is a continuation of ITL 101. It begins with a brief review of the topics covered in ITL 101 and then builds upon that foundation to expand and strengthen students’ language skills and cultural competency. Like ITL 101, this course is student-centered and interactive, enabling students to learn through communication. Since every language is inextricably linked to the culture of the people who speak it, students continue to explore the culture of Italy through analysis of authentic artifacts of contemporary Italian culture, such as films, music, and other media. This course is designed for students with limited prior knowledge of Italian. Assignment by placement test. Four class hours per week.
