Independent Study

Students in this course engage in individual, directed study on an approved topic of interest, advancing the student’s language proficiency, under the direct supervision of a member of the teaching staff. The course results in a community language resource, designed in consultation with the supervisor. Meetings, readings, field research, language practice, and preparation of the final outcome(s) must provide a rigorous academic experience equivalent to a 3-unit, half-credit course (36 hours).
