Students get valuable exposure to the language by the use of textbook-based computer tutorials that provide video, audio, and written exercises. Students may also view selected videos in these languages for additional practice. If you are taking Spanish as an online course, your lab course is also taken online. Workstations are available in the lab for online use.
