TitleArabic Workshop on Integrated Approach at Cornell
Body
The Arabic Program at Cornell University will be holding a one-day workshop on Friday, August 15, for its instructors on the implementation of the Integrated Approach (introducing MSA and a spoken Arabic dialect simultaneously) in the classroom. The workshop will be open to a limited number of Arabic teachers from other institutions who are interested in this approach, and will consist mainly of informal discussions and exchanges of ideas among the participants on the most effective and practical ways to prepare Arabic students to function in the two language varieties. The discussions will take place mostly in spoken Arabic, so proficiency (and comfort) in speaking an Arabic dialect is essential.

The workshop will be free, and limited funding will be available for travel and lodging for participants from other institutions on a first-come-first-served basis.

If interested in joining us, please email Munther Younes at may2@cornell.edu .
