The course will build on your existing knowledge of Norwegian, strengthening and expanding the language tools you already possess to make you able to move beyond the everyday topics and into more specialized areas of conversation. We will focus on your ability to narrate and describe in Norwegian, as well as to construct well-rounded paragraphs. Topics of discussion will include family life, housing, food, media, education, Norwegian history, literature and the welfare state. We will use mainly authentic cultural materials. You will be required to do all the reading at home. Class time will be devoted exclusively to conversation/discussion and going over specific grammar topics and exercises. There will be two comprehensive exams on your listening, reading and writing skills, focusing on particular grammar points. Weekly essays will also be required. We will start with short, half-page essays and gradually build to longer assignments. Books: Required books: A. Ellingsen, Elisabeth og Kirsti Mac Donald. Stein på stein. Tekstbok. Oslo.
