Ukrainian 1B is the second in a two-semester sequence of Introductory Ukrainian. This course provides a solid foundation in Ukrainian by teaching four major communicative skills: speaking, listening, reading, and writing. Students learn to communicate effectively and sensitively across cultural and linguistic boundaries while developing knowledge of and respect for the past and present of the Ukrainian people. Stressing the interdependence of language and culture, the course familiarizes students with the culture and history of Ukraine. Cultural awareness will be enhanced with authentic audio-visual materials, literary texts, social media texts, and cultural artifacts. Additionally, students will be guided in their exploration of aspects of the Ukrainian language and culture that are of particular interest to them (e.g., society, history, politics, literature, etc.). By the end of the 1B course, students will be able to read original Ukrainian texts and communicate about basic subjects.
