Course Description: Advanced conversational practice. Prerequisite: SPA 305. We will use common themes such as travel, social life, dining, friendship, and entertainment as a basis for conversational practice. Emphasis will be placed on improving confidence and fluency in conversation, integrating idiomatic expressions, expanding vocabulary, reviewing important grammar points, and producing a good presentation in Spanish. This course meets the presentation skills requirement. Course Attendance Policy: Only by attending regularly and participating actively can a student practice comprehension and communication skills. I hope that you will attend every class. However, I recognize that occasionally emergencies, illnesses, and sports or schedule conflicts occur. For this reason, students accumulating four absences or less will not be penalized. Nevertheless, I consider each absence over four for whatever reason excessive. One percentage point will be deducted from a student's grade for each absence in excess of four. If you already have several conflicts that you know will cause you to miss more than four classes, then you should either accept that your grade will suffer and live with the grade deduction, or you should drop the class and take it at a time when you can attend consistently. Please be sure you understand these rules: • I do not distinguish between "excused" and "unexcused" absences; they all "count," but only if you exceed 4 will there be a negative affect on your grade. • Example: If your final average is 81% but you have 6 absences, 2% will be deducted from your grade (2 absences in excess of 4) and you will receive a final grade of 79%, C+. • If something is due for a grade on a day you are going to miss, it is your responsibility to get it to me early or give the work to a classmate who can hand it in for you. An absence does not provide you an extension. Homework is due at the beginning of the class; late homework will receive a zero. • If you miss a class, it is your responsibility to read the syllabus and complete the next assignment. An absence does not excuse you from doing the homework for the next class. • If you know you are going to miss a quiz or test in advance for an acceptable reason, you can arrange with me to take it before the quiz or test date. If you have an emergency the day of a quiz or test and miss class, please contact me that day, and if I determine that you missed through no fault of your own, I will

arrange for a make-up promptly upon your return to class. However, no makeups will be given for tests and quizzes missed for no appropriate reason or if you fail to contact me the day you miss a quiz or test -- the grade for a missed test or quiz is a zero. Late dialogues or presentations will be downgraded 15% per class session late.

Evaluation of Student Performance: Your grade will be based on your performance on the following: 5 exámenes (70x5) 350 5 diálogos (50x5) 250 tarea/pruebas (60) y participación (60) 120 1 presentación familiar (preparación 60, pres 80) 140 1 examen final 140 Total: 1000 We will cover five units, each structured around a theme, related colloquial expressions, and supporting grammar. There will be a test on the vocabulary, idioms, grammar and thematic material of each unit. Each unit will culminate with the presentation of a dialogue (i.e., a scene or skit), created, rehearsed, memorized and performed without reading notes by groups of students. Homework assignments may be collected or quizzes may be administered on any given day unannounced. Participation evaluations will be given at midterm and at the end of the course. Criteria include: preparedness as demonstrated by completion of written homework, knowledge of assigned material when called upon, and adequate performance on quizzes and tests; attentiveness in class as demonstrated by active participation in class exercises, an ability to stay on task, and a productive attitude toward class work; use of Spanish in classroom (i.e. use of Spanish, not English, and general accuracy of that use), and attendance (-1 pt / absence). Each student will give a presentation on his/her family; preparation for this presentation will be a graded ongoing process done outside the classroom for the first half to 2/3 of the course (see details on eLearning site). The final exam is cumulative and will be on Mon, Dec 13, 10:30am-12:30pm, in our classroom. Goals / Objectives of the Course: You will: • improve your confidence and fluency in conversational Spanish • practice idiomatic expressions and new vocabulary • improve your control of correct Spanish grammar • learn correct presentation techniques in Spanish • continue to learn about the cultural and linguistic particularities of Latin America and Spain SPA 306 and the Conceptual Framework: Like all of our offerings in the Department of Modern Languages, SPA 306 is rooted in the ideals of liberal learning. The underlying ideal in all of our classes, whether they are literature-, culture-, or language-based, is that all three of these elements are interwoven. The specific knowledge and perspectives that will be acquired in this class reflect SUNY Cortland’s commitment to instilling in our students an acumen for themes and issues pertaining to global understanding (knowledge

3 of the interconnectedness of the natural and human experience through exposure to the political, social, economic and religious differences of the target language’s literature and civilization) and social justice (comparison and contrast of issues of social justice, equality, and democracy between our society and those of the target language). Academic Integrity: “Students must recognize that their role in their education is active; they are responsible for their own learning. Specifically, it is the responsibility of students to protect their own work from inappropriate use by others and to protect the work of other people by providing proper citation of ideas and research findings to the appropriate source. This includes the obligation to preserve all educational resources, thereby permitting full and equal access to knowledge” (section 340.01, College Handbook. See the rest of section 340 for full details on academic integrity. A copy of this policy is also posted on the bulletin board next to the language lab on the 2nd floor of Old Main). Student Disability Services: SUNY Cortland is committed to upholding and maintaining all aspects of the federal Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990 (ADA) and Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973. If you are a student with a disability and wish to request accommodations, please contact the Office of Disability Services located in B-1 Van Hoesen Hall or call (607) 753-2066 for an appointment. Any information regarding your disability will remain confidential. Because many accommodations require early planning, requests for accommodations should be made as early as possible. Any requests for accommodations will be reviewed in a timely manner to determine their appropriateness to this setting. Instructor’s qualifications: Ph.D. University of Texas at Austin, 2000, Spanish Golden Age literature; M.A. Middlebury College 1993, Spanish; B.A. Williams College 1988, English. Cell phone policy: All electronic devices must be turned off and put away for the duration of the class. Please do not use your cell phone, laptop, PDA, or other electronic devices for calls, texting, IMing, tweeting, etc. from the beginning of class to the end. If your phone rings during class I will deduct 5 points (half a percentage point) from your point total (1000 pt. system).
