Aims

The Italian major aims to:

  • Foster proficiency in linguistic, socio-cultural and communicative areas related to Italian language and culture
  • Expose students to a wide range of knowledge sources in order to develop students' skills and knowledge that are both specific to Italian language and culture and cross-disciplinary (e.g. translation, cinema)
  • Develop students' ability to analyse and respond to written and visual texts in Italian of varying difficulty
  • Develop students' awareness of local and global communities of Italian speakers
  • Develop students' awareness of and reflection about language and culture diversity locally and globally
  • Train students to form broad conceptual understandings of issues relating to cross- and inter-cultural communication
  • Provide opportunities for metacognitive training to enhance language acquisition and maximise opportunities to progress in language learning within and beyond the classroom
