Curriculum Guide


Core Ukrainian 10 introduces the Ukrainian language to English-speaking students. The course begins with the Cyrillic alphabet and writing skills, then proceeds to basic conversation, grammatical structures and cultural content. The course is divided into 12 segments, or Units, which span 12 days each.

Introductory Unit: This segment provides information about the Ukrainian language and introduces the sounds and corresponding written forms of the Cyrillic alphabet.

Units 1 - 10: Each of these segments introduces a new unit of language study. Each unit contains a PowerPoint dialogue presentation, oral and written practise exercises and an assignment worth 5% of the total mark.

Summary Unit: The last segment provides time for review and study before the final exam. The exam completes the online course. The course is further enhanced by Reference Sections and Cultural Enrichment segments which provide information on selected Ukrainian topics.

The Cultural Enrichment segments feature extended learning in Ukrainian and research assignments in English. Students will have access to an online teacher at regular intervals during each 12 day block of time. Students will have opportunities to ask questions, practise oral speech and conduct oral assignments via telephone or teleconference arrangements.
