Title: Intensive Summer Arabic Program at Cornell
Body: From: http://www.sce.cornell.edu/sp/arabic.php NES 111-Elementary Arabic I (June 7-July 2, 2004) NES 112- Elementary Arabic II (July 7-August 3, 2004) NES 113-Intermediate Arabic I (June 7-July 2, 2004) NES 210-Intermediate Arabic II (July 7-August 3, 2004) THE CORNELL PROGRAM The Cornell Arabic program integrates spoken Arabic with Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) in a way that reflects the use of the language by native speakers. Arabs use a spoken dialect for ordinary conversation and MSA for reading, writing, and formal speech. The Cornell program introduces spoken Arabic and MSA simultaneously, using each variety as it is used in real life. The four language skills of listening, speaking, reading, and writing are developed with a focus on communication rather than on the study of grammar. An important objective of the program is familiarizing students with basic facts about the geography, history, and culture of the Arab world. Classes will meet for 3 1/2 hours in the morning (8:30-12) before breaking for lunch. A Middle East-style lunch, which students and teachers eat together, will be followed by an hour of informal conversation with one or more teachers. CREDITS Each of the four courses carries four credits and is equivalent to a semester of language study at Cornell. Students will have the option of signing up for one or both courses in each sequence. TUITION AND FEES The program charge is $3040 for each four-credit course. For more information contact Munther Younes at may2@cornell.edu or (607) 255-2769, or visit: http://www.sce.cornell.edu/sp/arabic.php
