Russian 1131-1132 is a TBA (Time to Be Arranged) course. The class days/times are chosen at the organizational meeting. We always try to accommodate everyone. The time and place of the organizational meeting are announced on our Welcome page, see the navigation bar on the left.
At the beginning of the semester, we find out from each group of students how hard they want to work, i.e. how fast they want to move through the material.
The pace you select is measured in credit hours. This year, Russian 1131 in the fall can be taken for 2 or 3 credits per semester. (Compared to the 4 or 5 credits in 1121.) The same is true of Russian 1132 in the spring this year (2 or 3 credits vs. 4 or 5 credits in 1122.) In some years, the number of sections we can teach depends on our teaching resources and the level of interest among the students.
The 2-credit section meets 4 times a week for 30 minutes each time. The 3-credit section meets 4 times a week, for 40 minutes each time.
If you use Russian 1131 and 1132 to fulfill your foreign language requirement, you need to accumulate at least 11 credit hours in all RUSSA courses combined. This can be achieved in two or three semesters by taking Russian 1103/1104 (2 credits each) at the same time as 1131/1132 or taking 1125/2203 after 1132. See "Language requirement" under Courses in the navigation bar on the left. To fulfill your Russian minor requirements, you need to complete RUSSA 2204, no matter what route you take to get to it.

Day 2
|
The cells in each row show the homework that has to be done before the class. For example, this is the homework that must be done before coming to class on Day 2 of your classes in this course. Read about each type of homework in Course Description (link at the top of this syllabus). The first two weeks of classes are different from the later routine, because it is difficult to separate reading, grammar, and conversation while you are still learning the alphabet and the sound system. There are additional notes in the syllabus after the second week.

Things are changing! During the first ten days of classes, it was difficult to separate reading, grammar, and conversation, because you were still learning the alphabet and the sound system. Now these components of the course will be more or less separate, and you'll have a different teacher for each kind of work:
