This is a separate laboratory course, offered by arrangement at the students' convenience, which aims to present the culture of Italy through a variety of media. Students will be exposed to the Italian culture through film, current publications, Internet research, and listening activities. Students may also use language computer programs to improve language skills and reinforce grammar. This course is a requirement for students enrolled in Italian 1 and is designed to further enhance course material. Italian 1L may also be taken independently, however, by students not enrolled in a foreign language course as many materials have texts in both English and Italian. May be repeated once for credit.
Credit/No Credit option.
