Full-Year
PREREQ: Placement assessment or placement by the Novice Chinese instructor
The goal of Novice Mid Chinese is to progress to the Novice Mid level, as specified by ACTFL proficiency guidelines. The classroom experience is grounded in the four communicative skills: listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The three modes of communication — interpersonal, interpretive, and presentational — provide the organizing principle for the course content. This class also aims to solidify students’ background in character writing and memorization, along with building up Chinese vocabulary. Students continue to learn how to talk about themselves and their community — and to request and provide information by asking and answering practiced and original questions.
