Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

This course aims to help students to an intermediate level of proficiency in Syro-Lebanese Arabic. It is designed to build on the student’s grammatical knowledge with a special emphasis on the development of their listening comprehension and speaking skills. Through this course, the students will also broaden their knowledge of the Syro-Lebanese culture and society.

Assessment and permitted materials

The basic approach of this course will be communicative. This means that students are expected and required to actively participate in the class activities as well as to assume a large portion of the responsibility for their own progress.

1) Attendance is essential in this course. In case of absence, students will be required to review the contents of the class and to present the necessary assignments in the next session. The maximum number of absences is 3. Students who miss more than 3 classes will not be evaluated.

2) Punctuality is expected and required from students. Delays superior to 10 minutes will be considered 1/2 absence.

3) Arabic in the class. Students are expected to commit to speaking Arabic in the class and through activities.

4) Daily assignments. Students should expect homework assignments for each class. The assignment should be handed in at the beginning of every class.

5) Personal tutorials. Every student is encouraged to meet personally with the instructor twice per semester outside of the class hours in order to work together on any specific challenge the student may be facing. This allows the instructor to keep a closer and more continuous evaluation of the student's progress.
