We will use the text Spanish for Health-care Workers. Students are required to read one or more chapters before each class (see reading schedule below). In addition, each student will prepare an oral presentation to give to the class before the end of the semester. The Language Laboratory, Room 302, is open Monday-Friday from 9:30 A.M. until 8:30 P.M. In addition to attending class, each student must complete a weekly exercise in the lab.
C
There will be four to five quizzes throughout the semester in addition to a midterm and a final exam. Missed quizzes or exams will count against your grade; there will be no make-ups. The breakdown for calculating each student’s final mark is as follows: quizzes and exams-SO percent; oral presentation-30 percent; class participation-20 percent. A grade of B or higher is required to pass this class.
