About this course
This is an introductory course to Portuguese language and the cultures where it is spoken. This course aims to develop a communicative competence at a basic level where speaking, writing, reading, and listening are emphasized in varied and contextualized settings. This course is for students who have had no previous background in Portuguese. (If you already know Portuguese or have previously studied the language, please contact the Modern Languages Department at to sign up for a class that may be better suited to your proficiency level.)With the goal of meaningful communication, students are expected to interact with each other since day one, acquire and practice new vocabulary, explore strategies for communicating effectively in a variety of academic and social situations, and analyze the structures of language (its pragmatic function in common social discourse structures).Activities will be largely devoted to providing practice through task-based and communicative activities. Grammar is taught inductively and simple texts are read. Speaking, reading and writing are emphasized.
