The course focuses on the development of written and oral communicative abilities in the Southern variety of Quechua through an interactive activity-based approach. Course includes an introduction to Andean Culture, and foundations on the sociocultural history of Quechua. Quechua is the most widely spoken indigenous language in South America, with an estimated 8-10 million speakers in Peru, Bolivia and Ecuador, Chile, Colombia, and Argentina. But decades of migration have brought Quechua to coastal cities and abroad, like New York, New Jersey and Chicago. Formerly LAMS 1010.
