¡Bienvenido,
bienvenida a español 1002! This class is the second half of a year-long, beginning-level Spanish
course developed for students with no previous language experience. You are here because you have
successfully completed Spanish 1001. ¡Felicidades! Please be aware that Spanish 1002 is challenging because
we will have a new verb tense or mood every single chapter! Our goal is that you will become acquainted with
the major verb tenses of Spanish and acquire a proficiency level of Novice High-Intermediate Low. When you
complete this class successfully you can go on to Spanish 1003, Intermediate Spanish.
Methodology. Spanish 1002 is taught using the communicative approach, as are all the language classes in the
Department of Spanish and Portuguese Studies. This approach to language instruction is supported by many
years of research into second language acquisition and has proven to be highly successful among adult learners.
With this approach, classes are conducted in the “target language” as much as possible. Each lesson focuses on
particular “target” grammatical form/s and set of vocabulary, which are presented in connection with content
which provides a meaningful context for practice. Through this structured exposure to content in the target
language (“comprehensible input”) and structured oral and written practice (“output”), students develop an
implicit, internal understanding of the language which enables them to communicate effectively. Also, by
working with cultural content, students develop a growing understanding of the many cultures of the Spanishspeaking world. The ultimate goals of this program are, first, that you will become able to speak, understand,
read and write in Spanish within certain contexts (e.g. you will be able to give recommendations for healthy
living and talk about what you did last weekend but probably will not discuss nuances of foreign policy or
global economics). Second, that you will learn about Spanish-speaking cultures and reflect upon your own
culture. We will provide as many opportunities as possible to practice actual communication in the classroom.
Your active participation in class is expected at all times.
We will dedicate the majority of each class to partner and small group interactions in Spanish. We will talk
about strategies for learning, reading, and writing in Spanish, but we will not usually spend class time on
explanations of grammar. When you have questions about grammar, you have many resources available to you.

Tolerate ambiguity
Weekly schedule. Spanish 1002 is a five credit, five-day-a-week class. Though we normally will not meet on
Fridays, students are requested to leave all five days of the week available and not to schedule work or another
class on Fridays. You will always have written assignments to complete independently on Fridays and twice
during the semester we will have required classes on Fridays: On Friday, February 13, we will have a guest
facilitator to help us through a Language Learning Self-Assessment Activity and on Friday, March 6, we will
have our first Partnered Exchange.
Attendance Policy. Interaction in the target language is essential to your learning. For that reason, daily
attendance is required. With an accumulation of more than four unexcused absences your course grade will be
lowered 3%. Subsequent absences will lower your grade an additional 3% for every day missed. Excessive
absences, even if excused, may result in the recommendation that you drop the class and/or retake the level. If
you think that you can do well without attending class, you should consider moving to a higher level.
Grades: A/F students must have a score of 60% or higher to receive credit for the course and a 70% or higher
to be eligible to enroll in the next course. S/N students must have a score of 70% or higher to get an S. In
general, students should plan to take 1xxx-level language courses for a grade, particularly if they are
considering a major or minor in Spanish.
A 100-93%; A- 92-90%; B+ 89-87%; B 86-83%; B- 82-80; C+ 79-77%; C 76-73%; C- 72-70%; D+ 69-67%; D
66-60%; and below 60% F. Your final course grade will be calculated according to the following:
9% Daily Homework in MSL
30% Weekly Written Homework:
-10% Vistas Culturales
-10% Gente en Acción
-10% Cuaderno Compositions
1% Final Oral Presentation
5% Tarea Participation
10% 2 Partnered Exchanges
10% 5 Chapter Tests
20% 2 Unit Exams
15% Final Exams
Daily homework in MySpanishLab: Every day, you will be assigned online work in the Online Student
Activity Manual, or SAM, in MySpanishLab. MSL homework will provide necessary practice after class.
Completion of daily homework is essential to successful language learning. You will have five tries to complete
each activity. The website will provide feedback and recommend resources if you have problems completing an
activity correctly. You should complete your homework on the day it is assigned, but late homework will be
accepted with a 10% deduction for each day it is late. Homework in MSL is due at 11.59pm. Note: You will
need to use Mozilla Firefox for MSL.

Weekly written homework: This course is 4 + 1, meaning that we meet in the classroom four days a week and
students do approximately three hours of coursework independently on the fifth day. We will not meet in the
classroom on Fridays. On Fridays, students will work independently wherever they can have comfortable access
to a computer. On these days, students will complete written homework to hand in. This written work is worth
30% of the course grade because it is essential to successful learning in the course. There will be three kinds of
written assignments: Vistas Culturales, Gente en Acción, and Cuaderno Compositions.
Vistas Culturales. The study of culture is intrinsic to the study of language. We will study the culture of eight
different Spanish-speaking countries over the course of the semester, one for each chapter. To enhance the
cultural content offered by our textbook, Gente, we have incorporated a video series called Vistas Culturales.
Each Vistas Culturales video is about 12-15 minutes long. Students will watch these videos and complete a
worksheet to hand in as part of their weekly written homework. Worksheets are due on the Monday after they
are assigned.
Gente en Accción. Gente en acción is a series of videos coordinated with our textbook. Each four-minute video
shows a group of five native speakers from various countries carrying out a real-life task related to the
vocabulary, grammar and content of our chapter. Students will watch these videos and complete a worksheet to
hand in as part of their weekly written homework. Worksheets are due on the next day after they are assigned.
Cuaderno Compositions. For most students, writing is an essential way to internalize what they are learning.
During Spanish 1002, students will write five compositions in Spanish in Cuaderno, an online notebook
specifically designed for beginning language students. The assignment for each of these compositions will be
related to the vocabulary, grammar and content of the chapter it accompanies. Please note that the use of online
translators is not permitted. For the weeks that you have a Cuaderno assignment, it will be available from
Wednesday to Sunday and is due at 11.55pm on Sunday evening. Late work will not be accepted. Note that you
will need to use Mozilla Firefox to access Cuaderno.
Final Presentation: At the end of the semester, students will give brief oral presentations in Spanish about one
of the Spanish-speaking countries we have studied this year.
Tareas: Each chapter of our textbook culminates in a “tarea,” or task, that students will accomplish in Spanish
with a small group of classmates. This is your opportunity to put your Spanish to use in a spontaneous
conversation. Students will work together, speaking only in Spanish, to complete the task, recording their work
in a short, informal written piece. Students must participate actively in the completion of the task by speaking
often and speak exclusively in Spanish to earn full points.
Partnered Exchanges: Twice during the semester students will demonstrate their oral proficiency in Spanish
by completing a brief conversational exchange with a classmate. These exchanges will take place on Friday,
March 6, and Monday, May 4. These exchanges are the students’ opportunity to show how well they can handle
a simple, spontaneous conversation. The content of these conversations will be drawn from material we have
covered in class and students will be evaluated based on the appropriate proficiency level (students are not
expected to be fluent speakers yet!). The exchanges will take place in an audio lab, where students will talk with
their partners using headphones and microphones so that they may be recorded. On the days of the partnered
exchanges, class will meet in Jones Hall.
Chapter Tests: At the end of Chapters 11, 13, 14, 15 and 17 we will take a short test. These tests will help
students to gauge their progress and success as they continue the learning process. Each test might include a
listening and/or a reading section, and all will include culture and writing sections. Chapter tests will focus on
the material covered in the chapter. Please note that there will be no make ups of chapter tests.

Unit Exams. Twice during the semester we will take Unit Exams. The first Unit Exam covers chapters 10, 11
and 12. The second Unit Exam covers chapters 13, 14, 15 and 16. These tests will allow students the
opportunity to consolidate their learning and will challenge them to work with the material at a more
comprehensive level. Exams will include listening, reading, culture and writing sections.
Final Exams: At the end of the semester, we will take final exams. These exams will be cumulative, meaning
that they will include fundamental material from throughout the semester. The final exam will be given in two
parts: listening and written. The final listening exam will be given in our regular classroom on the last day of
class to facilitate listening comprehension. The final written exam will be given during exam week on the date
and time listed at the end of the syllabus.
Scholastic Dishonesty. Scholastic dishonesty is any act that violates the rights of another student with respect
to academic work or that involves misrepresentation of a student’s own work. Scholastic dishonesty includes
(but is not limited to) cheating on assignments or examinations, plagiarizing (misrepresenting as one’s own
anything done by another), submitting the same or substantially similar papers (or creative work) for more than
one course without consent of all instructors concerned, and sabotaging another’s work. Scholastic dishonesty
in any portion of the academic work for a course shall be grounds for awarding a grade of F or N for the entire
course. NOTE: Use of on-line translators is not allowed. Work done with the assistance of on-line translators
will receive no credit. If you have any questions regarding plagiarism, please go the following site:

Disability Accommodations: Any student who requires special arrangements in order to meet course
requirements should contact the instructor as soon as possible to discuss the necessary accommodations.
Students requesting accommodations must present the appropriate verification from Disability Resource Center.
Disability Accommodations for testing: We will not be able to provide suitable testing accommodations in the
department. For that reason, we will ask you to schedule your exams through the DRC Testing Center’s
website. Please remember the DRC Testing Center requires one week’s notice for exams via their online
system:
http://ds.umn.edu/resources_general/TestingCenter/testing.html.
We recommend that you schedule all of your exams for the semester as soon as possible. Make sure to include
the following information with your submission to the DS Testing Center:
1. Instructor: Your instructor’s name and last name, U of M e-mail and office phone number
2. Coordinator: Cecily Brown [email protected] 612-626-8713
3. Exam dates as listed in the syllabus, start time for your class, and time allowed for the class, which is 30
minutes for Chapter tests and 50 minutes for Unit Tests. There are five Chapter Tests and two Unit Exams plus
the final listening and written exams.
Resources on MSL:
Your eText of Gente on MSL includes the whole textbook, complete with all audio. If you are having
trouble with listening activities in class, you should preview and review them at home.
Tutorials (in English) explain grammar concepts.
Additional Practice provides extra exercises that are not graded.
Tutor Lab: All Spanish language students are invited to visit tutors in the Tutor Lab, located in
217 Folwell Hall. The Tutor Lab is staffed by Spanish and Portuguese instructors who provide help to all
Spanish and Portuguese language students, free of charge. It is open:
Monday-Tuesday 10am-6pm, Wednesday-Thursday 9am-5pm, and Friday 10am-12pm.
Service becomes available during the second week of the semester.
Media Center: The Media Center, 135 Jones Hall, has computers for your use as a language student. The hours
are: Monday-Thursday: 7:45 am-7:30 pm, Friday: 7:45 am-4:30 pm.

UNIVERSITY GRADING STANDARDS
*********************************
A
B
C/S
D
F/N
Achievement that is outstanding relative to the level necessary to meet course requirements.
Achievement that is significantly above the level necessary to meet course requirements.
Achievement that meets the course requirements in every respect.
Achievement that is worthy of credit even though it fails to meet fully the course requirements.
Represents failure (or no credit) and signifies that the work was either
(1) completed but at a level of achievement that is not worthy of credit or
(2) was not completed and there was no agreement between the instructor and the
student that the student would be awarded an I.
I
Incomplete. Assigned at the discretion of the level supervisors when, due to extraordinary circumstances,
e.g., hospitalization, a student is prevented from completing the work of the course on time. The student must
have completed at least 70% of the required coursework to be eligible for consideration. Requires a written
agreement between instructor, level supervisor and student.
Academic Dishonesty
*****************
Academic dishonesty in any portion of the academic work for a course shall be grounds for awarding a grade of
F or N for the entire course.
Credits and Workload Expectations
*****************************
For undergraduate courses, one credit is defined as equivalent to an average of three hours of learning effort per
week (over a full semester) necessary for an average student to achieve an average grade in the course. For
example, a student taking a five-credit course that meets for five hours a week should expect to spend an
additional ten hours a week on coursework outside the classroom.
SPANISH DEPARTMENT FINAL EXAM MAKE-UP POLICY
*******************************************************
The only valid excuses for taking a make-up final exam are the following:
(1) you have another exam scheduled at the same time, or
(2) you have 3 exams scheduled within a 24 hour period.
Work and family vacations are not acceptable reasons for missing a final exam in the Department of Spanish
and Portuguese. In order to take the make-up final, you must demonstrate that you have a valid excuse as
defined above. You must show your instructor a copy of the syllabus(es) from the class(es) that conflict with the
Spanish final at least one week prior to the last day of class (by Friday, May 1, 2015). Failure to do so will
result in your inability to take the make-up final and may result in failure of the course, for this is not considered
an extraordinary circumstance to merit an incomplete. It is the responsibility of the student, not the instructor,
to present the appropriate verification to the course instructor and/or supervisor.

DEPARTMENT OF SPANISH AND PORTUGUESE: GENERAL INFORMATION 2015
PLACEMENT
If you feel that you are not enrolled at the proper level, speak with your instructor about the problem as soon as possible. If your
instructor feels you are not at the proper level, s/he may be able to suggest an alternative course.
GOALS OF THE PROGRAM
The primary goal of the Spanish and Portuguese language program is to help you develop all four language skills--listening, reading,
speaking and writing--within a communicative approach. (It does not mean speaking like a native after one or two years.)
Grammar will be studied as needed to help you make yourself be understood, and especially to avoid being misunderstood in the
language. Homework assignments and some classroom activities will help you learn to read and write the language. However, most
class time will be spent improving your speaking and listening skills.
CLASSROOM ACTIVITIES
Since the ultimate goal of the program is to help you communicate in the foreign language, we will give you as many opportunities as
possible to practice actual communication in the classroom. Though activities involving communication are often the most difficult,
they are also the most fun. Your active participation in class is expected at all times.
In order to make the best of class time for communicative activities, long explanations of grammar will be avoided in class.
Grammar points are explained in the text and MySpanishLab, and you are expected to study them thoroughly. If you are
confused you can obtain individual help from your instructor or in the Tutoring Lab.
In order to increase your ability to understand spoken Spanish or Portuguese, classes will be conducted primarily in those languages.
You should talk to your instructor if you have difficulty understanding her/him.
ATTENDANCE
According to university policy, any student who is absent the first day of class can be denied admission to the class. All students, both
registered and non-registered, will lose their place in class and move to the bottom of the waiting list after any absence during the first
five days of class. The instructor may lower the student’s oral participation grade after more than two unexcused absences a semester.
After 4 absences (day school or 2 absences from an evening or summer session class) the student’s course grade will be lowered 3%.
Subsequent absences will lower the grade 3% for every day missed.
ORAL PRACTICE OUTSIDE OF CLASS
Although we will devote the majority of class time to speaking/listening activities, your ability to "survive" in Spanish or Portuguese
will depend on your willingness to make the best use of your study time. Regular and active practice in addition to the daily online
homework is a required part of the program and will help you prepare for some class activities and reinforce others. Plan to work
outside of class with your classmates and make the effort to search out Spanish speakers on campus and in your community. We
suggest that short daily practice periods (1-2 hours) are much more effective than marathon (10 hours once a week) sessions.
TESTS
All tests will include oral and written questions to test your listening, reading and writing abilities. Tests will include a reading and/or
a brief composition. Tests will concentrate primarily on recently learned material, but you are responsible for previously learned
items. (All learning of new material necessarily involves building on what you have learned previously!) The FINAL EXAM will be
cumulative in that sense, though it will focus on chapter 19. Speaking/listening skills will also be evaluated by your instructor based
on your daily classroom participation, Tarea participation, Final Oral Presentations, and two Partnered Exchanges. There will be no
make ups of regular tests.
COURSE EVALUATIONS
Near the end of the semester, you will have the opportunity to evaluate the course, textbooks, and your instructor, but your comments
are welcome at any time. You should direct them to the Supervisor of your level.

13 HINTS FOR STUDYING A FOREIGN LANGUAGE
1. DON'T CRAM! A foreign language must be assimilated little by little. Work in frequent, short study
sessions, such as 30-45 minutes twice a day, and more when possible.
2. Before each class, preview the activities in the book that we will cover that day. This will help you to
follow in class and allow you to focus on the content of the lesson rather than navigation.
3. If you have trouble understanding your instructor in class, remember that it is not necessary to understand
every word that is said. Try to listen for the main idea. Previewing the materials will help, too!
4.
After each class, review the material we covered during the lesson.
5. Do MSL homework daily, as soon after class as possible. Use your textbook to help you with questions and
to put activities into context. Remember that homework is meant to be completed on the day it appears in the
syllabus to help you practice the material covered that day.
6. When learning new vocabulary, group words into categories like nouns (must be learned with their gender
marker, i.e., la casa), verbs (check if their conjugation is regular or irregular), adjectives, adverbs, and
pronouns. Make special note of any idiomatic expressions.
7. Review the new grammatical structures introduced in each chapter. Work on acquiring structures as well as
individual vocabulary words.
8. When practicing new vocabulary and structures, write them down and say them out loud. This will help you
to remember them and to develop the muscles necessary to make the new sounds.
9.
Remember that Spanish grammar requires you to conjugate verbs for each subject, unlike English.
10. Make flash cards of words and structures that you have difficulty remembering. Carry them in your pocket
and go over them whenever you have a few minutes.
11. STUDY WITH SOMEONE ELSE WHENEVER POSSIBLE. Plan to work with your classmates outside of
class and make the effort to search out Spanish speakers on campus and in your community. Using the language
outside of class is important to your success in learning.
12. If you need help, use your resources and ask for help! Your instructor has weekly office hours and will be
glad to answer questions. There is a Tutor Lab in 217 Folwell Hall and there are many resources on MSL. If
you have a lot of problems, your instructor can direct you to a private tutor.
13. DON'T PANIC. Learning a language is a life-long process. Perseverance and hard work every day are the
keys to improvement.
