- Abstract
A set of instructional materials for introductory Tunisian Arabic is designed for a 12-week Peace Corps volunteer language course. It provides instructional notes for the teacher and a series of lessons on aspects of grammar, phonology, and morphology. Much of the text is descriptive. Lessons include grammar and phonology notes, exercises, and vocabulary. The materials are organized for two phases of language learning: a pre-speech or comprehension phase occupying one-fourth of the total class time, during which the student acquires a passive knowledge of Tunisian Arabic structure and phonology, and an active phase during which the student covers the same material and is drilled in language production. The vocabulary and exercise types differ for the two phases. (MSE)
