SPAN - Spanish Courses
Note: For additional courses in Spanish, consult the Studies Abroad (SABR) courses described on page 361.

SPAN 1001Elementary Spanish (3-V-3)
Fundamentals of listening, speaking, reading, and writing Spanish in a proficiency-based classroom. Introduction to Spanish-speaking cultures. Designed for students who have never studied Spanish. Students who entered ASU for the first time in the Fall of 1998 or later, or those returning students who have not been enrolled for two consecutive years prior to 1998, will not be able to count Foreign Language 1001 towards graduation if it is the same language they took in high school. (First time freshmen who graduated from high school five or more years ago may count Foreign Language 1001.) However, it does count for computing eligibility for financial aid and calculating full-time student status. Students taking the language for the first time will receive credit. For CPC students, consult page 7 of the catalog.

SPAN 1002Elementary Spanish (3-V-3)
A continuation of Spanish 1001. Students admitted provisionally with CPC deficiency in foreign languages may take this course to satisfy the foreign language CPC requirement. Prerequisites: SPAN 1001 or placement.

SPAN 2001Intermediate Spanish (3-V-3)
This proficiency-centered course is designed to build on high school Spanish or on SPAN 1002. More emphasis will be placed on listening, speaking, and reading skills in practical situations. Students will learn how to "get around" in places where Spanish is spoken natively. Prerequisites: SPAN 1002 or placement.

SPAN 2002Intermediate Spanish (3-V-3)
This proficiency-centered course includes a grammar review and more intensive work in listening comprehension, speaking, and reading, with more emphasis on writing than in SP 2001. Spanish-speaking cultures will be studied through music, art, film, literary and cultural readings, including current events. At the end of this course, students should have a basic competence in Spanish. Students who wish to take upper-division courses in Spanish will need to demonstrate sufficient proficiency as determined by the foreign language faculty before enrolling in major/minor courses. Prerequisites: SPAN 2001 or placement.
