    Description
    This course offers a systematic introduction to understanding, speaking, reading and writing the Japanese language. Emphasis is placed on communication skills, first in the classroom, then extending to wider cultural contexts, such as Haiku, Ukiyoe, seasonal traditional festivals ( background, and history) and origami to instruct the ways to analyze and appreciate the cultural work. JPNS1B course is the equivalent to the satisfactory completion of two years of high school instruction in Japanese. Portions of instruction may be offered online; may also be offered fully online.
