- This unit follows on from IND2404 Indonesian 4 or INDO2204 Indonesian Intermediate II and leads to INDO3406 Indonesian 6. It allows students to achieve 'social proficiency' in Indonesian or Level 2+ of the International Second Language Proficiency Ratings (Elaine Wylie and D. E. Ingram, Griffith University, 1995). Students explore social, cultural and political issues, both prescribed and of their own choice. This is done through exposure to a wide range of authentic, contemporary Indonesian language material, including fiction, newspapers, radio and television/film. Students are required to use internet resources to keep themselves up to date on the social and political changes taking place in Indonesian society. They develop reading, writing and translation skills in official, colloquial and literary styles. They also participate in conversation classes and are exposed to a variety of recorded material. In addition they work on language development (structure and grammar), both in a prescribed way and also in response to questions about the texts.
