RUS3111-01-SP13 Intermediate Intensive Russian 2

The second part of the complete intermediate level of Russian for full-time Russian students, this course is also the second semester of the second year of Russian for those students not enrolled in full-time Russian study. This course includes a two-hour block of instruction that meets twice per week. Both hours are taught consecutively and offer the student an introduction to intermediate vocabulary, word formation, and grammar, as well as intermediate-level Russian sentence structure. Emphasis is on the development of conversational proficiency, and students learn to use constructions common in discourse. The student is given the opportunity to practice the content conversationally through teacher-student drills, question and answer sessions, and topically-oriented activities. Students are encouraged to ask questions and interact with the instructor. Students who enroll in the entire Intermediate Course (full-time Russian study) must enroll in this course.
