Expanded Course Description
| The Arts and Letters requirement specifies that a course "create meaningful opportunities for students to engage actively in the modes of inquiry that define a discipline." The field of Arabic language and culture is defined by the ability to read, interpret, speak about, and contextualize “texts” (broadly construed as written, oral, and audio-visual). This, in turn, is accomplished through the twin goals of mastering the Arabic language, and increasing knowledge of Arab cultural themes necessary to interrogate Arabic texts in an informed, relevant way. ARB 301, 302, 303 cover the skills required to complete these tasks by introducing students to key cultural and literary texts, and assigning projects whereby they discourse about them. Basic communication skills are developed through the instruction
and the assignments, and the multi-disciplinary materials addressed in the course convey the cultural competency needed by a student of Arabic culture and literature. |
