Develops cross-cultural communication and global citizenship through the acquisition of reading, writing, listening and speaking skills in Arabic at a mid-novice level. It provides connections to other disciplines and cultures through the study of Arabic and develops an awareness of the cultural contributions and socio-political contexts of diverse, often underrepresented groups throughout the Arabic-speaking world. Topics related to local and global diversity provide the context through which language skills are taught and learned. Communicative competence at a mid-novice level is emphasized, and learning is supported by instructional technologies. Course offered every fall, spring and may be offered during additional sessions.
