Subject. (Brief description of proposed change, addition or deletion.)
Add course from PUWL: ITAL 10200 Italian Level II (prerequisite: ITAL 10100: Italian Level I)
Justification. (Briefly list main reasons for proposed change, addition or deletion.)
The class will provide more language options for PNC students. Italy is one of the top five economies in the world and at the
present time approximately 7500 US companies do business with Italy. Italian literature boasts a number of world-famous writers.
The course already forms part of the Purdue system curriculum: it is being taught at the West Lafayette and the Calumet
campuses. This class is the second class in a sequence and it follows ITAL 10100: Italian Level I.
Current:
(Course changes: present catalog
info.)
N/A
Proposed: (Course changes: new catalog information.)
ITAL 10200 Italian Level II, prerequisite ITAL 10100
0.000 OR 3.000 Credit hours
Continuation of ITAL 10100. Typically offered Fall Spring Summer.
(is this the full course description?)
Course Objectives.
(For new courses only. List main learning objectives. If lengthy, attach as separate page.)
By the end of the course students will be able to:
 Speak a series of simple phrases and sentences to describe commonly discussed topics.
 Develop a basic understanding of simple social exchanges.
 Write short, simple sentences related to areas of immediate needs.
 Read short, simple texts, by identifying predictable information.
Impact on Students.
(State “N/A” if proposal will not greatly affect students.)
The course will expand language options for students. A number of PNC students are required to take a modern language as part
of their program of study and Italian will satisfy this requirement. (Is this true?)
Impact on University Resources. (State “N/A” if proposal will not require new resources, faculty or funds.)
How would this effect enrollment in other language courses?
Impact on other Academic Units. (State “N/A” if proposal will not affect other units.)
