- Course Catalog Description:
- The goals of this course are twofold. The first goal is to improve your abilities in the four areas of language (speaking, listening, reading, and writing) to the point that you can communicate advanced ideas in written and spoken Portuguese. The second goal is for you to possess a foundational understanding of cultural texts (plays, short stories, poems, films, and essays) from the 1950s onward that will help generate your enthusiasm for Portuguese and help you understand how the arts are entwined in resistance to injustice throughout the communities where Portuguese, among other languages, is spoken. As a course that bridges the language courses and the content courses, PORT3003 includes both advanced grammar and critical analysis to prepare you for content courses, such as PORT 3501w, and the longer writing assignments that you will have in such courses. The course will be taught in Portuguese, and the reading, writing, and speaking will be done in Portuguese. Assessments include, but are not necessarily limited to, writing assignments, oral presentations, and written exams. prereq: 1104 or 3001 or Port LPE
- Class Description:
- This course will focus on grammar review through practical activities in order to encourage conversation. There will also be readings, films/videos, and discussions that will center on Brazilian and/or Portuguese, and/or Lusophone African cultures. The main objective is for students to improve all four language skills (comprehension, reading, speaking, and writing).
