Quichua at Univ. of Kansas-Lawrence
"I am an Indigenous woman from the Salasaca community in Tungurahua Province, Ecuador. I have an American spouse. I speak the Salasaca dialect, and practice and teach the Unified Quichua of Ecuador. For 5 years I taught Quichua at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. Now I teach introductory and intermediate Quichua at the University of Kansas-Lawrence." "I would like to communicate with advanced speakers, especially those knowing Unified Quichua. Actually, it would be nice to hear from anyone who knows some few words in Quichua." "I also give private Quichua lessons, at reasonable rates, via email correspondence and other media, as fits the situation. My approach is to make learning the language enjoyable and practical. With advanced students and speakers, we try to develop a vocabulary in an area that interests the students--and write materials in Quichua that might benefit Indigenous communities." "I am also involved in spinning, weaving, knitting and other projects as a means of increasing incomes among the Salasaca people. If there are individuals interested in volunteering or collaborating, we would also like to communicate with them."

QUECHUA AT THE UNIVERSITY OF PENNSYLVANIA, SUMMER
Elementary Quechua I and II will be offered at The University of Pennsylvania in Summer 1998.* These courses are open to graduate students, advanced undergraduates, professionals and other interested individuals. They will be taught by Serafin Coronel-Molina, a native speaker of Quechua, using a combination of traditional and multimedia texts. The course has been developed in close consultation with Dr. Nancy H. Hornberger of the Graduate School of Education at the University of Pennsylvania. Elementary Quechua I (LING 140 for undergraduates; LING 508 for graduates) will be offered in the first summer session (May 19 to June 26, 1998), and will meet five days a week from 10:00 am to 12:00 noon. Elementary Quechua II (LING 141 for undergraduates; LING 509 for graduates) will be offered in the second summer session (June 29 to August 7, 1998), and will also meet five days a week from 10:00 am to 12:00 noon. Elementary Quechua I is intended for students with no previous study experience in Quechua. It introduces students to the language and culture of the Quechua people. This is the language that was spoken by the ancient Incas and is still spoken today by more than 10 million speakers throughout the Andean countries of South America. The variety taught will be from the Southern Quechua family spoken in Peru. The course will promote the development of the four language skills: speaking, listening, reading and writing, providing a good practical command of oral and written skills appropriate for everyday situations. In addition, classwork will include discussion of native Andean culture, as well as the changing face of Quechua culture in light of recent migration trends. Elementary Quechua II is a continuation of Elementary Quechua I for students who have taken the first session course or who have previously studied Southern Peruvian Quechua at the beginning level. The format will be the same as for Elementary Quechua I, with continued building of the four essential language skills: speaking, listening, reading and writing. Grammatical structures will be continually reviewed throughout this course, while a rich input of material in Quechua is provided with the goal of increasing the range of vocabulary and linguistic structures as well as knowledge of the culture.

"We have been teaching Quechua at the University of Bonn since 1936.
Prof. Hermann Trimborn founded the Department of Cultural Anthropology at this university and is also the first translator of the 17th century Huarochiri manuscript into German. Since then it was first him and then Roswith Hartmann who taught Quechua here. Together with her and with other colleagues and students, as well as with the help of Clodoaldo Soto Ruiz and on the basis of his "Quechua - Manual de ensenanza", we elaborated a German coursebook for Ayacucho Quechua which we are using up to date ("'Rimaykullakyi' - Unterrichtsmaterialien zum Quechua Ayacuchano", zusammengestellt nach: Clodoaldo Soto Ruiz "Quechua - Manual de Ensenanza", Lima 1979, ergaenzt von: Sabine Dedenbach-Salazar Saenz, Utta von Gleich, Roswith Hartmann & Peter Masson [u.a.] Universitaet Bonn. Berlin: Reimer, 1985, 31994.).
In April 1998 a new Quechua course on Ayacucho Quechua will start. The new Quechua cycle is planned for three semesters, with an additional one or two semesters for reading classes."
