Basic Spanish I
an online course
August 26 - December 13, 2013
This is the first part of a two-semester course sequence. The course consists of an intensive study of the
principles of Spanish grammar and usage of the language. The course also focuses on basic vocabulary
building, reading, composition, and translation of elementary texts. A contrastive grammar approach
will be incorporated, drawing upon elements of English and ASL. Students will also be exposed to
aspects of the target culture(s), including information on the deaf communities abroad. Spanish Sign
Language (LSE) will be integrated to support the vocabulary of each textbook chapter.
