Course overview
This is the continuation of Second Year Indonesian INDO 2010. You will continue to use
the same textbook from last semester, except that you will work on more reading and writing.
You will also learn how to write various letters in Indonesian, including a letter to inquire for
sponsorship, just in case you plan to do research in the country.
Since you are going to practice on your four language skills: speaking, listening, reading,
and writing, you will find that the class assignments, the tests, and the final project are designed
to apply these four skills.
By the end of this term students will be able to:
1. Listen and speak both in informal and formal Indonesian with more advanced vocabulary
and complex structure.
2. Read and summarize short readings in Indonesian.
3. Write short essays in formal Indonesian related to the readings.
4. Lead an informal discussion on the topics of their choice.

final project.
Homework &
Class participation 25%
5 cultural activities 10%
5 biweekly tests 35%
2 class presentations 10%
Final project 20%

Homework and class participation (25%)

Homework will be graded according to the scale of 1 to 100, based on spellings, organization of
ideas, vocabulary, and grammar. Students may choose to resubmit the homework after it is
graded. The maximum grade for the resubmission is 99. The emphasis is on your writing ability.
Your writing should be at least two pages, double space.

Homework deadlines:
- First draft is due by 5 PM every Monday on http://www.scribd.com/. If you submit it during
the week after the deadline, your grade will be reduced up to 25% (5% off for each day after the
deadline). The system will not accept your homework beyond one week after the deadline.
- Revised draft is due by 5 PM the following Monday.

I do not accept homework on email.

Please safe the homework with your name on it (for example: Laura_PR1.doc) and
always include the following heading in your homework:
PR Nomer:
Nama:
Tanggal:
And if you resubmit your homework, please include this after the title (Pembetulan).

Class participation is significant. You are expected to actively participate in the class
interaction. If for some reason you miss these activities, you cannot reasonably make them up.
As a result, if you do not participate regularly you should expect to receive lower grades in the
course. And if you miss more than the equivalent of two weeks of class you should consider
withdrawing and taking the class in the future semester. If you have any problems in speaking in
front of class, please let me know, so that we could find a way to help you.
Sometimes class participation can be in the form of in-class individual and/or group
work. This semester will have visitors in our class. This will give you a chance to practice
listening and speaking.

assignments. The cultural component should include (but not limited to) lectures on Indonesia,
