Living Perugia: Elementary Language, Culture, and Reflection

4 Credits

The specific goals of the introductory course is to give students a basic lexicon to interact with everyday life, events and activities of their new host country, while at the same time teaching them the key building blocks of Italian grammar. The central objectives are therefore to provide students with the necessary tools by which they can engage - little by little - with the local community in a meaningful way, and to stimulate students to observe and reflect upon various aspects of the new culture surrounding them.
