CHN 102 - Beginner’s Chinese II Credits: 3

Chinese102 is a continuation of Chinese 101. It aims to expand existing skills in Mandarin Chinese - speaking, listening, reading, and writing. The course assumes that students have successfully completed Chinese 101 or its high school equivalent, or have other previous exposure to Mandarin Chinese at the Novice level. The course adopts the 5 C’s of American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages (ACTFL)* as a framework focusing on Communication, Cultures, Connections, Comparisons, and Communities. Specifically, the course concentrates on interactive communication, essential basic grammatical structures, and basic vocabulary and usages. Students learn communicative skills regarding college life, scheduling, making appointments, shopping and travel. *American Council on the Teaching of Foreign Languages
