This is essential to help you improve your fluency in Arabic and your understanding and appreciation of the Middle East s rich and varied culture. How you study Much of our teaching is by lectures, seminars, and practical classes which are supported by audio, video, satellite, television, language laboratory and computing facilities. Our lectures may have as many as fifty students in them, but practical classes as few as five. We expect students to play a full and active part in the learning process, not only through the written work they submit, but also through their contributions and presentation to seminars and language practicals. Oral and aural language skills are reinforced in the language laboratory and through the use of audio- visual materials and satellite television.
Assessment is by coursework or examination, or a combination of both.
