Side note: I have included two ways for you to view the video lectures below. First you can click on the embedded YouTube video, or you can cut and past the link into a new tab or browser window (this second option results in a less grainy image). If you use this second option you may have to first download “Flip For Mac” if you are using an Apple computer. One option may work better than another at different times and on different computers. I have also included a link to the PowerPoint presentation that I used when recording the lecture. If you are having difficulties with any of these materials, sometimes it’s wise to try to load online content using different web browsers (such as Safari, Firefox, Chrome or Internet Explorer). If you need help with the technological aspect of this course, call me, or send me an email, or call the Yavapai College computer help desk at 928-776-2168.
After the video lectures you will see that you have a number of online Spanish workbook assignments listed. Typically, all of the workbook assignments listed below the video are required for the completion of each module, but here in Module 0, all of the workbook assignments listed below the videos are optional. In subsequent modules, please be sure to complete each listed exercise shortly after viewing the corresponding online lecture while the content is fresh in your mind.
One more note, if you don't have Windows Media Player either, it can be downloaded for free here.
