Handbook

This subject is available to students who have completed JPN 2004 or hold equivalent proficiency, somewhere between the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) N5and N4. Students who have not completed JPN2004 but who have prior knowledge of Japanese should contact the subject or discipline coordinators for a placement test (e.king@latrobe.edu.au or k.okano@latrobe.edu.au). Students will continue to consolidate their language and understanding of Japanese culture to an intermediate level. By the end of the of this course, students will have learnt with approximately 300 kanji. Students may be asked to move to another level by the subject coordinator prior to the census date (usually in the week 3 or 4). Students will work towards attaining the competence level closer to Level N4 of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT).
