HISP-S 308 Composition and Conversation in Spanish (3 credits)
Prerequisite:  S280 or S310 or equivalent. Co-requisite: may be
taken concurrent with HISP-S280.

The objective of this course is to develop students’ oral and
writing abilities in Spanish.  Students will develop their oral
skills by watching and discussing a number of critically acclaimed
films from different Spanish-speaking countries dealing with a
variety of issues.  To further improve oral proficiency, students
will participate in various in-class discussions and debates related
to the films.  Students will develop writing skill by learning and
practicing the main components of different modes of writing
(description, narration, exposition, and argumentation).  The course
will include a number of in-class writing workshops and peer-review
exercises to help students become better writers in Spanish.  By the
end of this course, students will be able to write in a variety of
formal and informal writing styles and to discuss a wide range of
topics.

Note:  This class replaces S312; if you have already taken S312 you
should not take S308. Look at taking a higher level class.
