GEP World Language Proficiency
Rationale
In a sense, languages are keys to the world. The continuous expansion of international relations makes the knowledge of world languages increasingly significant. In learning a world language and studying its literature and cultures, students acquire a body of knowledge about how humans think, view the world, express themselves, and communicate with one another. Language learning also expands one鈥檚 ability to create and discover new meaning in one鈥檚 own language and culture. Knowledge of the linguistic structures of a second language helps students to understand their own language better. Likewise, an awareness of contrasting cultural concepts sensitizes students to the differences between their own culture and others. Such awareness has become increasingly important as the communities of the world have become more interconnected and interdependent. The needs of our global society require that more citizens have access to other languages and cultures in order to cooperate in the process of improving the quality of human life.
World Language Proficiency Requirement
To fulfill the GEP World language requirement, the student must have proficiency at the WL* 102 level. This can be demonstrated by completing two years/two units of high school study of the same language with a grade of C or better in each of the two years, or a passing grade at the WL* 102 level (letter-grade required), or by placement into the WL* 201 by examination. Additional World Language requirements above the WL proficiency requirement (WL*102) have been established by聽some 福利逼站 and programs.
American Sign Language (ASL) is accepted in satisfying the world language proficiency requirement with two years of ASL in high school with a grade 鈥淐鈥� or better in each year.
The Cherokee language is an accepted language for satisfying the world language proficiency requirement.
Special Note:聽 If a student changes a General Education course except for HES courses from a letter grade to credit-only (S/U), then the course will not satisfy the GEP requirements.聽 Consult your academic advisor if you have questions.
