This is a face-to-face class. Online content is also provided and assigned as part of this course. Attendance is mandatory. It counts 10% of your final grade. COURSE DESCRIPTION: SPANISH LANGUAGE AND CULTURE I: A basic study of the Spanish language through activities designed to develop listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Emphasis will be on oral proficiency. Additional activities are intended to develop an appreciation of the Hispanic culture and an awareness of the geography of the Hispanic world. **RETRO-CREDIT** The Department of Modern Languages and Literatures has a retro-credits program designed to reward students who have already spent years learning languages in high school. Students must sign up for the program in 428 Grubbs Hall with Kathy Dyer, Departmental Secretary, during the first three weeks of the semester in which they take their first language course at PSU. That course determines their entry level and the maximum credits they can earn through retro-credits. For more information on retro-credits visit our webpage at www.pittstate.edu/flang. Transfer students who took language courses at another university or college are not eligible. No exceptions or extensions will be granted. The Department encourages students to seek faculty advice to determine their best entry level. IKE (Certificate of International Knowledge and Experience): This course counts towards the academic component of the IKE Certificate of International Knowledge and Experience. The IKE Certificate may be earned by students in any major. The academic component consists of five courses - two semesters of a foreign language, and three courses with international content in three different disciplines. To receive the certificate, students must also complete a second component, either by studying abroad, or by participating in co-curricular activities on campus. Completion of the IKE certificate as an undergraduate is noted on a student’s PSU undergraduate transcript, although graduate students may also earn the certificate. To be added to the IKE group and start tracking your progress towards the certificate, please e-mail your GUS number in a request to Megan Corrigan [email protected]. For additional information, visit the IKE website: http://www.pittstate.edu/department/ike/international-knowledge-andexperience/index.dot

GENERAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS: This course counts toward the requirements in General Education for your degree program. General education is the study of humans in the global setting. The general education curriculum, therefore, acts as the heart of a university education by developing the capacities that typify the educated person and providing a basis for life-long learning and intellectual, ethical, and aesthetic fulfillment. General education examines the world around us and fosters an understanding of our interactions with the world and our place in the universe. General education celebrates the creative capacities of humankind and helps to preserve and transmit to future generations the values, knowledge, wisdom, and sense of history that are our common heritage. GOALS OF GENERAL EDUCATION FOR THIS COURSE: This course contributes to the overall purpose of the General Education program by: 1) providing the students with the basic knowledge and skills in a foreign language that will enable them to participate more effectively in our global society. (Goal #1, 1.1, 1.2) 1) stimulating critical thinking and encouraging decision-making free from prejudice or insularity (Goal # 2, 2.1, 2.4) 2) promoting an appreciation of different cultures. (Goal # 4, 4.3) However, the emphasis of this course will be to help the students meet the following objectives for the understanding and appreciation of a variety of cultures and their interrelationships (Goal # 3, 3.1, 3.2) Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to: 3.1 Recognize the value of diverse cultural, national and ethnic backgrounds. 3.2 Demonstrate and understanding of the relationships of gender, race and class within and across cultures. These objectives are met through a variety of means, including 1) reading, analysis, and discussion of cultural information about the countries and regions where the target language is spoken. 2) discussion of authentic materials that show the diversity of the people who speak the language. Such authentic materials include audio tapes, video tapes, pictures, music, and internet resources among others. 3) the practice of situations that show the sociolinguistic appropriateness of language use in different communicative instances. 4) discussion of authentic materials that show the diversity of the people who speak the language. Such authentic materials include audio tapes, video tapes, pictures, music, and internet resources among others. 5) the practice of situations that show the sociolinguistic appropriateness of language use in different communicative instances. TEACHING STRATEGIES This is a face-to-face course. Attendance is mandatory. Class time will be spent in a variety of activities: 1) doing one-on-one, small group and whole class activities; 2) reviewing out-of-class assignments; 3) listening and answering questions over video blogs; 4) watching videos; and 5) role playing. STUDY TACTICS See suggested ways to increase your chances of success in this course on the information page entitled Study Tactics under “Files” and in the folder “Notebook” on the CANVAS course site. Vocabulary is not learned in class—it is practiced and manipulated. It is manipulated and expanded into phrases and sentences in class. Therefore it is imperative that most of your vocabulary memorization take place outside of class. Study the last page of each chapter for vocabulary and use the online flashcards on the Premium Website for pronunciation reinforcement. EVALUATION: The course content will cover up to and including chapter 6 of the text. Below is a breakdown of how your performance will be evaluated. 1. Two Oral Exams (After Chapter 3 and Chapter 6); also vocabulary quizzes over meaning and spelling 2. Workbook Activities, Lab Manual, Other assignments , including small group quizzes 3.

TESTING & HOMEWORK POLICY: One homework assignment will be dropped for the semester. Exams (mid-term and final) may be made up due to an emergency. Homework due dates are announced. Late assignments are accepted with a 20% penalty. Homework will only be accepted for one week from the due date. After that, the assignment will be given a zero. Therefore, stay current with your course calendar. Flashcards: It is highly recommended that you use the online flashcards for daily practice. BEFORE AND AT THE BEGINNING OF EACH CHAPTER: I often see many students searching dictionaries or the text dictionary during homework time. This usually tells me they didn’t study their vocabulary for the chapter. Take the time to study the chapter vocabulary found at the end of each chapter intensely before and at the beginning of each chapter so that you aren’t wasting time looking up words while you do homework. DURING EACH CHAPTER: The text vocabulary and grammar headings correspond to the vocabulary and grammar headings in the workbook. Stay current by completing the corresponding vocab and grammar sections in the workbook as we work through the text. The Listening LAB starts on page 201 of the workbook. The audio files for this can be found on the publisher Premium Website. When provided with an answer key for the workbook, mark through incorrect answers and write the correct answer next to the incorrect one, then review the item aloud, giving your full attention to the corrected answer. Make sure you know why your answer was incorrect. If you often don’t know why most of your incorrect answers are wrong, you should probably get a tutor (provided for free by the department—just ask me and we will sign you up). The Workbook and LAB are due (will be turned in) on quiz and exam days. Writing exercises count 10 pts and fill in the blank count 5pts. Total missed in workbook and lab will be subtracted from 100, so don’t skip any exercises! Skipping exercises costs you dearly. ABOUT STUDYING SPANISH: I want to give you a little more information about studying Spanish. There are skill levels of language proficiency designated as the following: novice-low, novice-mid, novice-high, intermediate-low, intermediate-mid, intermediate-high, advanced-low, etcetera on up to superior. The state of Kansas requires that teachers of Spanish speak at the advanced-low level to be teachers in Kansas. It is also estimated that it takes about 200 hours for K-12/16 learners to proceed through each sub-level of language proficiency. So, to proceed through the advanced low category, that would mean 1400 hours of study. A four year degree contains less than half of that (32 college hours X 16 weeks + conversation partner time=512+ hours). Most of our graduates have tested out for their senior interview at intermediate-mid to intermediate-high, so they are ahead of the K-12 learning curve, but not quite enough. Once in a while we do graduate students with advance-low skills. But these are exceptional students. So, what can you as a language learner to be exceptional and move toward advanced low? Study harder. Study regularly, with regular breaks, but at least an hour a day outside of class. Read all assignments aloud. Study and practice in pairs or groups. Take advantage of the Premium Website tutorials and activities. Sign up for tutors if you know you are a weak student. And participate in study abroad for a full semester or two staying with a host family so as to have a real immersion experience. To make it to advanced-low you have to have exceptional study habits. There are opportunities for intermediate-high and advanced-low students. Spain has an ambassadors program that pays you to teach English for a year. There are also other English teaching programs in other Spanish-speaking countries. You just need to make the grade with your Spanish to make it happen. I know many of you may not be considering a degree in Spanish. I wasn’t either when I took my first course. Now here I am teaching Spanish. You just never know. Do well and you just might end up with a double major in Spanish and something else. Explore your options and don’t burn any bridges. Good luck. Now visit your CANVAS course, set up your notebook, explore the files tab, purchase your materials, and explore the files tab. Don’t delay in getting your materials! Seems they are always short at the book store despite the order that was made. Online purchases take a while but are always cheaper. Don’t forget to explore the Premium Website that comes with your materials.

Instructor Responsibilities Monitor, but don’t hover. Circulate among the groups. Offer suggestions if needed. Answer questions, but don’t be overly available. Note grammatical and pronunciation errors for further classroom work. Call a time-out to correct a common error that will be repeated a number of times in the activity. Abandon the activity if it isn’t working. Failure could be due to poor setup or not enough linguistic preparation.

Student Responsibilities Work on task. Work cooperatively. Practice Q & A in Spanish. Look only at your own information if appropriate: don’t peek at your partner’s. Enunciate and speak clearly. Correct each other’s grammar when needed (this is important). Speak only in Spanish; use gestures if needed to convey meaning.* (Ask for permission to speak in English if only English will do as a LAST resort.)

PLACE THIS SECTION IN YOUR NOTEBOOK FOR QUICK REFERENCE. CALENDARIO DEL CURSO DE ESPANOL I (MLL 154) (73 días de clase) Audio Files for the LAB activities are available on the Premium Website. All assignment topics correspond to topics listed in the text and generally follow the WB (Workbook) /LAB topics with few exceptions, if any. If you miss class, review the corresponding topic in the text and related vocabulary. Topics are listed at the beginning of the book in the Scope and Sequence for quick reference. Assignments are made for every day. Workbook & LAB is due on quiz/exam days—20% off if it is late—even if it is just one day--and a zero will be given for work more than a week overdue. Make sure you write your name on your work along with the day’s date, staple it with the WB on the top and the LAB on the bottom and hand it in. If you skip writing assignments in the Workbook, twice as many points will be deducted from your score. Only 100 pts are counted for each chapter but each activity counts either 5 or 10, even if there are some 34-35 activities per WB/LAB in a chapter. They may add up to more than 100, but only subtract from 100, so do ALL your work. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Enero (January) / SEMANAS (Weeks): 1-2 13 Texto pp. 4-7: Sección Preliminar: (Preliminary Chapter): Las Presentaciones, Saludos y despedidas  Antes de clase (Before class): 1) Read “To the Student” p. xi in the text.
