Here is a link to the 312K
general
syllabus
for this semester. Our sections are using Schedule A. Remember
that this syllabus is for long-range planning; you need to check the daily
assignments page for homework, quizzes, etc.
FINAL EXAM has finally
been announced!!! Our exam will be on Thursday, December 13 from 2-5 pm.
Please check your schedules for any conflict with other exams. If
you do have a conflict, the make-up is the same night from 7-10. Check
your schedules ASAP; if you need to take the make-up, you must tell me
before the last day of class, so that I can register you for it.
The "Intercambio" for this semester is being held every Monday from 5-6
in the Asian American Culture Room, Texas Union. This
is a program that brings learners of Spanish together with native speakers
of Spanish who are studying English. You speak for about 1/2 hour
in one language and then switch, so everybody gets to practice. This program
is open to everyone but is really designed for 312K and 312L levels, so
you are strongly encouraged to participate if at all possible. Not
only will you make new friends and improve your Spanish quickly, you'll
also learn things that no class can ever teach you.
Another opportunity for extra
free help in Spanish:
Free tutoring sponsored by
the Spanish Department in FAC 28. There is a list on the door of
that office of the tutors and the hours they are available. These tutors
can explain grammar, review tests or assignments that have already been
graded, give you tips on how to study, etc. They are not necessarily
familiar with the exact content of different courses.
IMPORTANT REMINDER: Please remember
that you are NOT allowed to have help in preparing ANY written assignments.
Tutors may help you learn verb forms and vocabulary, explain things to
you, help you practice listening comprehension, etc, but they may NOT correct
or even proof-read anything that you will be turning in.
