About This Course

This course is the first in a two-course sequence and is designed for students who have at least 1-2 years of prior experience in learning Chinese. This course focuses on taking students from a tentative understanding of Chinese basics to a greater level of sophistication by having students participate in sentence-level conversations through project-based language learning activities. Topics in this level include weather, dining out, asking directions, birthday party, and seeing a doctor. Using a flipped design, students will be instructed to complete preview and review activities asynchronously with a suggested pacing-guide. Students are also required to take a 50-minute lab session per week and interact with their instructor and classmates for synchronous learning.
