Course Description
Chinese II course builds upon the skills developed in Chinese I, extending students’ ability to understand and express themselves in Chinese with richer vocabulary and sentence structures. This second-year course continues to develop the overview of Chinese language and culture through listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Through the development of receptive, productive, and interactive skills, students acquire the ability to respond and interact appropriately in real life situations. Its objective is for students to achieve communicative competence in a variety of everyday situations. At the end of the course, students will be able to give extended information about themselves, families and friends, daily life, and the immediate environment. Students will also explore the customs, history, and art forms of Chinese people to deepen their understanding of the culture. The classroom instruction is predominantly delivered in Chinese. English subtitles will be provided to ensure comprehensive input when needed. This course will further strengthen student's ability in using Hanyu Pinyin (Chinese pronunciation system), Chinese writing system, and Chinese typing. Students will acquire Chinese communication skills through a myriad of contextualized and personalized mini-situations. Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to communicate effectively with native Mandarin Chinese speakers in simple conversations on the following topics: Talking about Shopping, Transportation, the Weather, Dining, Asking Directions, Birthday Party, Seeing a Doctor, Dating, Renting an Apartment.
