This syllabus is not prepared ahead of time because we want to read about current events (for the most part). Each assignment is posted a couple of days before the class.

Read and translate a story that is assigned for each class. If the story is longer than half a printed page, translate as much as you have time for. Print the text and bring your printout to class--you won't be translating from the screen in class. Be sure to read the Course Description, especially the part about using online translators (Google Translate is recommended). If you do have a portable computer, bring it to class so we can do some work together using a new story.
