East Asian Languages and Cultures | Second-Year Japanese II (undergraduates)
J202 | 4332 | Fukai, Hamada
P: grade of C or better in J201 or equivalent proficiency
Continuation of J201. This course is for students who want to continue to
develop the four basic language skills (speaking, listening, reading, and
writing) in a culturally appropriate context. Our goal is that students
will be able to function in various social situations in Japanese. For
example, you will be able to talk about everything from the weather to
environmental issues (and even complain in Japanese!).
J202 will be offered in a special session roughly equivalent to Summer II
(24 June - 9 August). Second-Year Japanese I (J201) will have been offered
just previously, 7 May - 21 June. For maximum benefit, students are
encouraged to take both classes this summer. Unlike J201 and J202 during
regular semesters, these summer courses will provide students with a
combination lecture/drill in smaller classes, but students will still
complete the same number of credits as students earn when taking it in the
regular academic year.
