Course Description

SAN0003 – The third course in the  Micro Certificate in Conversational Sanskrit for Hindu Studies (MCCS), aspires to facilitate the students to become fluent in conversational Sanskrit. During this course, students will listen to news clips, comprehend them and be able to summarize the news in Saṃskṛtam (Sanskrit). They also learn to efficiently employ active voice in sentence formation and apply it in daily conversations. By the end of the course, students will have developed sufficient proficiency in spoken Sanskrit to be able to debate on a prepared topic with their cohorts during class. They will wrap up the quarter by synthesizing and performing a skit based on a preselected story.

Featured Testimonial

Course Content

In this course, students will explore passive and impersonal voices using a given set of Sanskrit sentences besides refining their active voice usage through engaging in conversations. To enhance their reading skills, students will be provided with a collection of stories to practice throughout the quarter. They will then select one of these stories and create a skit set in a contemporary context, which they will present at the end of the term. In addition, students will engage in debates on pre-prepared topics given to them at the beginning of the course. The highlight of this quarter is the students’ exposure to various news clips in Sanskrit, enabling them to expand their vocabulary, comprehend the content, and summarize it in their own words.

Class Structure

Students will have a dedicated 1.5 hours of valuable contact time with the faculty once a week. The class has been meticulously structured to foster effective learning in an engaging online face-to-face format. Furthermore, the curriculum is thoughtfully designed to build upon the knowledge acquired in previous classes. Additionally, students will have the opportunity to collaborate with their peers outside of class, working together to successfully complete group assignments and engaging activities.
