Dear All, I need your kind assistance to get an exiting pilot project going! ALTEC is piloting 5 online summer language courses. I need students to fill up these classes! This project is an essential part of my doctoral research on Faculty Preparation To Teach Online. Specifics: - There are five courses: French, German, Spanish, Japanese, Chinese - The courses last 3 weeks, are taught entirely online and are non-credit - They were designed and will be taught by experienced instructors. - The cost for each course is $65 (as an incentive for students to take them seriously) Here is the schedule: $E2Ac Spanish: June 29th to July 17th $E2Ac Japanese: July 6th to July 24th $E2Ac French: July 13th to July 31st $E2Ac Chinese: July 13th to July 31st $E2Ac German: July 20th to August 8th and information about the levels of the course: The Spanish, French and German courses review the curriculum of the first year and prepare students for third year courses. The Chinese and Japanese courses review the curriculum of the first year and prepare student for second year courses. All the courses provide opportunities to practice reading, writing, listening and speaking skills. Here is an announcement that you can copy and paste in an e-mail to your students. I also attached a flier. Thank you so much for your help with this! Edwige. ONLINE LANGUAGE COURSES Brush up your language skills in the summer and get a headstart for the fall!!
