Course Descriptions:
ADVANCED PLACEMENT (AP) CHINESE LANGUAGE AND CUL- TURE (L5570)
10 Credits, One Year, Grades 10, 11, 12
This course meets the CSU and the UC ‘e’ Foreign Language college entrance requirement.
Recommended Prerequisite: B+ or higher in previous
course, or instructor approval.
The AP Chinese Language and Culture course is designed to be equivalent to the fourth semester of a college/university course in Mandarin Chinese. The goal is to deepen the stu- dent’s immersion into the language and culture of the Chi- nese speaking world. The AP course prepares students to demonstrate their level of Chinese proficiency across the three communicative modes: interpersonal, interpretive, and presentational; and the five goal areas: communication, cul- tures, connections, comparisons, and communities. The course views Chinese culture in an international context and helps students develop an awareness of China’s role in issues of global importance. It also helps students broaden their world view by comparing Chinese cultural products, practic- es, and perspectives with those of their own society. Stu- dents ultimately move beyond a basic knowledge of the products and practices reflected in the Chinese way of view- ing the world. This course may be taught in conjunction with another level of Chinese. Independent study skills are need- ed. This course may not be repeated for credit.
