Course Catalog Description
Students will continue to develop the basic elements of communicative competence in both the spoken and written language within a cultural context.
Class Description
This course is a continuation of Swedish 1A (taught in the fall semester) and has the goal to further build Swedish language competencies emphasizing practical communication in everyday contexts. Classes meet for three hours of Swedish instruction per week. Students will continue to work on basic communicative competence in all four foreign language skills (speaking, listening, reading, and writing) within a cultural context. The aim is to enable students to express themselves in Swedish regarding topics such as hobbies and interests, food, and grocery shopping, family and friends, and everyday life.
In this course, we will also explore Swedish society and popular culture by watching films,
reading simple newspaper articles, and engaging with social media to enhance students’
abilities to interact in Swedish with cultural competence and understanding.
Prerequisites: Swedish 1A – or equivalent with permission from instructor. Course cannot be repeated without prior consent from the department language coordinator.
Concurrent Enrollment: If you are not a currently registered student, you may be able to enroll via Concurrent Enrollment, UC Berkeley Extension. Please note that the Concurrent Enrollment application must be approved by the department. Approval is based on availability of space in the class; enrolled UC students on a waitlist have priority.
