Objectives
and Requirements:
This course is the second step toward a basic reading knowledge of classical
and koine
Greek. In the first semester we learned the main declensions for nouns,
adjectives and pronouns, along with the basic present-tense endings for
thematic verbs. Now in the second semester we devote ourselves to mastering the
other major parts of the Greek verbal system--past, future, and into the
subjunctive (leaving perfect and optative for 3rd semester). We shall follow
much the same approach: work out with the grammar and vocabulary, and read,
read, read!
Keep up your practice in pronunciation, reading
and responding aloud in Greek. Try to master the passages in Athenaze with greater clarity:
these passages are designed to build comprehension and confidence in reading
continuous prose--so that when you turn to read the unabridged text of New Testament
and ancient authors, you can proceed with reasonable facility.
The course grade will
be the average of 3 quizzes (50%), homework and in-class exercises (25%); and
final exam (25%). You are encouraged to study together, but homework must
be your own work: any evidence of copied homework will be treated as
plagiarism. Any academic dishonesty will be subject to sanctions (as listed in Student
Academic Integrity, p.4) proportionate to the value of the
work. See also the general Policy
Statement.
Special
considerations: We strongly support University policies to accommodate
students with disabilities and to prevent or remedy discrimination of any kind.
If you have a concern or special need, please advise the instructor. In regard to
disabilities, you may also contact Disability Services (836-4192) http://www.missouristate.edu/disability;

Thorough
preparation and active participation is absolutely essential.
