This course is designed for students who have successfully completed three semesters of intensive Modern Standard Arabic. Like its prequels, Intermediate Arabic II focuses on the equal development of the fundamental skills of speaking, writing, reading and listening in Modern Standard Arabic. Thematic units, however, transcend the communicative needs of daily life to include communication about subjects of a broader cultural, historical and sociological relevance. Textbook used is the second half of Brustad, K, Al-Batal, M. and A. Al-Tonsi. Al-Kitaab fii Tacallum al-cArabiyya Part Two, A Textbook for Intermediate Arabic.

Presentations, oral interaction and writing samples are expected to become lengthier and more intricate. This course is designed as a communicative and interactive learning environment, with a strong emphasis on practice. Pre-req: pass in ARAB-3101 or equivalent experience as assessed through a placement test.
