A Note about a “hybrid” course:

The keys to success in this class are generally the same as those in any other class. However, given the nature of hybrid classes, in which you will meet less frequently (M/W) and will be responsible for covering a good deal of material on your own, there are some things that you should keep in mind this semester.Be very careful in managing your time. Set aside specific times each week to completeclass activities. It is your responsibility to cover all the required material before class, andif you do not it is likely that you will not get as much out of the class meeting as youshould.Expect electronic glitches, power outages, or the like, and plan ahead. Don’t wait untilthe last minute to submit your work. The deadline for all work to be submitted is 11:59pm, and there are no exceptions. Any technological problems that cause you to miss adeadline must be documented through tech support with an official case number beforeyour instructor can consider accepting your work late.It is especially important to be consistently prepared for and actively involved in all class meetings, since there are fewer of these than in traditional classes.Class time will be spent primarily on communicative activities, pair work, grammaticalexplanations, taking tests and exams, etc.

Course Objectives:By the end of the semester you will be able to communicate using basic Spanish for:- greeting people and exchanging some polite questions and answers, exchanging phone numbers, talking about days and dates, etc;- using simple vocabulary related to the classroom;- talking about family;- discussing typical activities related to traveling in a foreign country, including making hotel reservations, travel arrangements, getting around;- talking about hobbies and sports.

The Department of Humanities’ Goal:The exchange of ideas is the basis of all societies. Each culture has its own form of expressing thoughts. Communication is the act or process of transmitting information about ideas, attitudes, emotions, or objective behavior through a common system of signs, symbols, or conduct. According to the Communicative Approach, the emphasis on communication ensures that second language learners will be able to exchange their thoughts in a way that is comprehensible to the educated native speaker. Our emphasis on written communication is because we believe that a strong lexical and syntactical foundation is the basis for all communication exchange at a level expected from students at the higher education level. Therefore our expectation is that upon completion of the exit courses of their foreign language sequence, students will be able to produce short, comprehensible written pieces of increasing complexity based on the course and content presented at each level. It is our goal that each student will be at the 70 th percentile or above in the areas of language (syntax) and vocabulary (lexicon) on a written composition.

The following link provides the Clayton State University Core Curriculum outcomes (see Area C in particular):

http://www.clayton.edu/Portals/5/core_curriculum_outcomes_clayton.pdf

Specific Student Learning Outcomes for SPAN 2001:In the target language, by the end of the semester the learner will be able to:- point out the main differences between the preterit and imperfect;- compose a short composition describing his/her childhood rituals;- recognize the usage and verb conjugations for the present subjunctive;- identify the usages of the present subjunctive;- recognize the differences between formal and informal commands;- write a composition describing one’s hopes and wishes for the future using the present subjunctive;- create a dialogue using interrogative questions, such as questions posed during a job interview;- point out main ideas in complex real-world texts (newspapers, magazines, commercials, etc.);- summarize shorts stories or plays;- write compositions that demonstrate greater assimilation of syntactical and grammatical materials appropriate to third semester students; - compose an oral presentation on a complex subject (a cultural aspect, specific country, historical movement, etc.);- compose a creative piece, such as a short poem in the target language;- compare/contrast his/her values with those of Spanish speakers, specifically to those in Chile, Costa Rica, Argentina, and Panama, as well as the various Hispanic groups in the United States;- use technology and other resources in the target language to practice language skills, research, discuss, collaborate and build communities with other second language learners as well as heritage speakers at a level appropriate for third-semester learners.

Class Format: SPANISH 2001 meets three hours a week. The format of this class is based on the premise that the best way to learn another language is through repeated, meaningful exposure to the language as well as for opportunities to interact with others. For this reason, class time will be dedicated to communicating in Spanish using structures and vocabulary that you have practiced by doing your homework prior to class. Please note that this is a university setting. As a result, formal, academic Spanish is most appropriate in this particular context .

Course Policies

General PolicyStudents must abide by policies in the Clayton State University Student Resource Handbook, and the Basic Undergraduate Student Responsibilities.

University Attendance PolicyStudents are expected to attend and participate in every class meeting. Instructors establish specific policies relating to absences in their courses and communicate these policies to the students through the course syllabi. Individual instructors, based upon the nature of the course, determine what effect excused and unexcused absences have in determining grades and upon students’ ability to remain enrolled in their courses. The university reserves the right to determine that excessive absences, whether justified or not, are sufficient cause for institutional withdrawals or failing grades.

4

Page 5: SUMMER 2009 (Second Summer Session)

Course Attendance PolicyYou will be allowed a total of five (5) unexcused absences. Starting with the 6 th absence, you will lose 3 percentage points from your final grade for each additional absence. Note that habitually arriving late and/or leaving early will result in a lowering of your final grade. Each day your instructor will make a mark in his grade book regarding your participation and will assign you a daily grade. If you miss a class, no participation points can be awarded for that day. There is NO make-up for participation points. Daily participation will be graded according to the following scale:

SUPERIOR: (2 points) Used Spanish consistently in class with professor and peers; was listening attentively when others spoke; showed respect and displayed a positive attitude toward professor, peers, and subject; actively participated in all activities; came to class prepared.

AVERAGE: (1 point) Used Spanish sufficiently in class with professor and peers; got somewhat distracted, not always listened attentively when others spoke; showed some respect and an agreeable attitude; showed some interest in class activities and discussions, passively participated in activities speaking when called upon; came to class somewhat prepared.

UNSATISFACTORY: (0 points) Poor attitude; did not pay active attention during class (i.e., sleeping, reading newspaper, talking about unrelated subjects, surfing online); unprepared for class by either doing work assigned or did not bring the proper materials for class; used English, did not respond when called upon; inconsiderate of others (interrupts class, cell phone, etc.); absent.

Assessment of Student Learning1. EXAMS AND OTHER ACTIVITIES: Open Syllabus Quiz (taken online, on Desire 2 learn, 15 pts); Exams (4, 100 pts each); Homework (25 pts each lesson); Group Activities/House of your Dream (50 pts); Oral Exam (50 pts): 70%

****Note: Exams #1 and #3 will be taken in class, closed notes/closed books.Examen #2 will be a take home test; you will have a week to complete it.Exam #4 will be taken online, on Desire2Learn.

2. SUPERSITE ONLINE ACTIVITIES: 10%

3. ACTIVE PARTICIPATION AND ATTENDANCE: 10%

4. FINAL EXAM: 10%****Note: The Final Exam will be taken online, on Desire2Learn

Notes:****Extra credit will be available each lesson (5 pts added to each exam). ****ALL GRADES WILL BE POSTED ON DESIRE2LEARN!

Grading Scale:A 100-90% D 69-60%B 89-80% F 59-0%C 79-70%

Exams: Students will have the opportunity to demonstrate their ability and progress in the language on each exam. The skills areas of listening, reading, and writing will be tested on each

5

Page 6: SUMMER 2009 (Second Summer Session)

exam along with grammar. Two exams will be taken in class (lessons nine and eleven), and two exams will be taken online (lessons ten and twelve).

Quizzes: Quizzes will be given on a regular basis. They may or may not be announced. The format of each quiz may vary. The information on the quizzes will range from prior information in the course to information from the homework due that day. You will be excused from missing one group quiz; if you miss more than that, regardless of the excuse, you will receive a 0 (zero). The quizzes are generally only worth 10 – 15 points. There are NO make-ups for quizzes if you arrive late and the quiz has already been given.

Make-ups: No makeup exams are permitted unless your professor has approved the makeup and the student can provide a verifiable documented excuse for the absence. Missed assignments are to be made up as soon as possible. Make-up tests will not be the same tests taken by the class; they will be more difficult in an effort to dissuade students from missing exams. Class work/ participation cannot be made up. If a makeup exam is granted, each student is allowed ONLY ONE makeup. If any other exams are missed, the student will receive a 0 (zero), regardless of the excuse.

Homework/Class Preparation and Participation/Assignments: You are responsible for all material covered in class on days that you are absent. It is also your responsibility to be aware of changes made regarding the syllabus. Having missed the previous class is not an excuse to come to class unprepared.

Most grammar is studied before and outside of class so you come to class prepared to practice it. Written practice activities are to be completed before the class meets on a separate sheet of paper in case the professor collects it. These assignments are to be prepared for the day that they appear on the syllabus, prior to coming to class. Each lesson’s homework assignments, all indicated on the syllabus, will be handed in the date of the corresponding exam. Each chapter’s homework will be worth 20 pts; homework points (5) will be deducted if the homework is handed in after the date of the exam.

Final Exam: The final exam, worth 10% of your final grade, will be comprehensive. ALL students, regardless of their average, MUST take the final exam. No exceptions! If you do not take the final exam, you will receive a ZERO (0). The final exam will be taken online, on Desire2Learn, on

Extra credit: There will be an extra credit opportunity for each lesson. Before the start of each lesson, your professor will email you a link to take a practice online test for each of the lessons we will cover. Each practice lesson test will consist of 40 - 50 multiple choice questions. You will generally have until the day of the scheduled exam to complete each extra credit practice online test. As long as you complete it, you will receive five extra credit points on that week’s lesson test.
