This course follows Intermediate Vietnamese (VIET 204) and will focus on popular modern (post-war) media, including short stories, poetry, news articles, websites, films, music, and television. Students will continue to build on all four skill areas - reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Students will be expected to process and discuss readings and other media at an appropriate level and to write short narratives, essays, and reflections.
Using a content- and project-based approach, this course develops reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills with emphasis on spoken fluency and academic writing. Students engage with authentic Vietnamese materials -- including newspapers, essays, poetry, short stories, and film -- across cultural themes such as economy, performing arts, and religion. Through discussions, collaborative projects, and literature circles, students refine advanced grammar, expand academic vocabulary, and build confidence producing and comprehending Vietnamese across multiple genres and registers.
