FARS-201 Intermediate Farsi I
In this first intermediate-level course, students will further advance their ability to apply four language skills - listening, speaking, writing, and reading - in order to refine their ability to communicate at a intermediate level by exchanging, interpreting, and presenting information in multiple tenses and contexts; to deepen the comparisons of Farsi-speaking cultures' practices, perspectives, and products to students' own cultures; to connect the Farsi language to other relevant disciplines; and to expand their use of the Farsi language outside of the classroom in a variety of contexts. Content and supporting language structures and vocabulary will be theme-based, with outcomes measured in a variety of ways, including task-based activities that support effective communication around the theme.
