Because courses develop and changeover time to take advantage of unique learning opportunities, actual course content varies from semester to semester.  \nCourse Description  \nStudents will acquire a solid foundation in standard khari boli Hindi to enable interaction with speakers of Hindi in North India and all over the world. It is expected that students will make rapid progress in both speaking and listening comprehension by using Hindi outside of class as much as possible, particularly with Homestay family members. Although dedicated students will acquire a strong, functional ability to communicate in Hindi, students wishing to interact substantively with Hindi speakers should nevertheless expect extensive collaboration with a translator for their Independent Study Project (ISP) .  \nThis course is designed to develop student proficiency and communication in Hindi. While emphasis is placed primarily upon oral comprehension and conversational skills (i.e. , listening and speaking), reading and writing are highlighted as crucial to the reinforcement of those skills. Thus, the course is designed not only to help students acquire Hindi, but also to grasp cultural practices in India. Cultural context is built into the course and introduced through experiential activities accompanying the textbook. Intermediate Hindi provides students a more in-depth background in daily life issues, enabling them to master critical language skills necessary for performing everyday activities.  \nIntermediate Hindi covers grammar and syntactic structures to teach students how to create correct sentences, enabling them to both discuss and write about various topics of study. The main focus, however, is on vocabulary related to themes of culture, public health, and authentic everyday situations. Students participate in field exercises and other activities to gain confidence in interacting with Indians and immersing in society. Students are responsible for finding new vocabulary words and expressions matching the assigned field exercises—by using dictionaries, additional texts including newspapers and magazines, and by conducting interviews.  \nLanguage Levels and Placement  \nNon-beginning participants are placed into appropriate language course levels based on oral proficiency interviews and written exams (placement tests) conducted during orientation in India.  \nLearning Outcomes  \nThe Intermediate Hindi course comprises of 45 hours of instruction (3 credits) . Upon completion of the course, students will be able to:  \n• To acquire intermediate grammatical structures necessary for conversation  \n• To read basic “newspaper in Hindi”  \n• To discuss research, politics, weather on an intermediate level  \n• To negotiate social/commercial transactions (doctor, shopping, ordering a meal)  \n• To read short stories and poetry with simple grammar  \n• To become proficient with a Hindi dictionary  \n• To gain cultural insight based on language usage  \nCourse Requirements  \nEvery day, class begins promptly at 9:00 am, and commences with a brief 15-minute quiz.  \nHindi Faculty conduct classes in small groups of 8-9 students, taught in rotation. Material appearing on written examinations is solely drawn from the Rupert Snell text. Students’ abilities in written Hindi are tested daily and nightly via quizzes and brief homework assignments. Generally, one grammatical topic will be taught each day in first period and the topic will be reviewed in the second period by using drill exercises. Further practice is then provided via the daily homework assignment.  \nThroughout the semester, but particularly while on excursion, students are expected to collect rough material for their Hindi Final Project (see below) . Students should also frequently meet with the Hindi Instructors t","cbCaivsD2e0jrKnu","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivsD2e0jrKnu","pdf",261774,"English","# Course Description\n# Language Levels and Placement\n# Learning Outcomes\n# Course Requirements\n# Readings\n# Course Textbook","[{\"question\":\"What language skills does the Intermediate Hindi course focus on most?\",\"answer\":\"The course prioritizes oral comprehension and conversational skills, especially listening and speaking, while also strengthening reading and writing as essential reinforcement.\"},{\"question\":\"How are students placed into the correct Hindi level?\",\"answer\":\"Non-beginning participants are placed based on oral proficiency interviews and written exams (placement tests) conducted during orientation in India.\"},{\"question\":\"What are the main course outcomes after completing 45 hours?\",\"answer\":\"Students can handle intermediate grammar for conversation, read Hindi “newspaper” materials, discuss topics like research and politics, negotiate everyday transactions, use a Hindi dictionary, and gain cultural insight through language use.\"}]","Intermediate Hindi - SIT Study Abroad Program: India - Public Health, Gender, and Community Action | PDF",1790842680,15]
