Course Catalog Description:
Bonjour! Join us in learning the global language of diplomacy, culture, cuisine, and commerce! French is spoken on five continents, in approximately 40 countries, and even in Maine and Louisiana. Studying French will deepen your understanding of world history and the relationships between different cultures around the globe and close to home. Studying the language of Les Misérables, Monet, and joie de vivre allows you to access some of the most amazing art, thought, and food on the planet! Beginning French (French 1001) is designed for students with little or no knowledge of the French language. It focuses on developing your intercultural, reading, listening, speaking, and writing skills. By the end of this course, you will be able to communicate about family, housing, and school. You will also gain familiarity with French-speaking communities around the world. The course features preparatory and practice activities outside of class designed to encourage analysis of language structure so that class time can be primarily devoted to meaningful interaction in French.
Class Notes:
While class does not meet face-to-face on Fridays, students are expected to work independently on online course assignments which are an important part of the course grade. (MTWTh in classroom & F online)
Class Description:

Bonjour! From Africa to Europe to North America (including Maine and Louisiana!), French is a global language of diplomacy and commerce. Join us in learning to communicate in the French-speaking world while exploring how these communities consider how our heritage, the way we spend our time, and what we eat (where, when, and how) relate to our identities, culture, and values. After all, learning a new language is more than learning grammar and vocabulary!


Beginning French I (French 1001) is designed for students with little or no knowledge of the French language. Through this course, you will expand your ability to interact in a multilingual, multicultural world by developing your identity as an effective multilingual communicator, a cross-cultural navigator, a critical and analytical thinker, and a life-long learner. You will build these skills by interacting in French with your peers in class and engaging with texts created by and for French speakers. To conclude each unit, you'll use your French skills in a project that simulates a real-world task. Throughout your learning journey, you'll continually reflect on your successes, challenges, and progress. Upon successful completion of this course, you will be prepared to continue this journey in French 1002.

Bonjour! From Africa to Europe to North America (including Maine and Louisiana!), French is a global language of diplomacy and commerce. Join us in learning to communicate in the French-speaking world while exploring how these communities consider how our heritage, the way we spend our time, and what we eat (where, when, and how) relate to our identities, culture, and values. After all, learning a new language is more than learning grammar and vocabulary!

Course Catalog Description:
Bonjour! Join us in learning the global language of diplomacy, culture, cuisine, and commerce! French is spoken on five continents, in approximately 40 countries, and even in Maine and Louisiana. Studying French will deepen your understanding of world history and the relationships between different cultures around the globe and close to home. Studying the language of Les Misérables, Monet, and joie de vivre allows you to access some of the most amazing art, thought, and food on the planet! Beginning French (French 1001) is designed for students with little or no knowledge of the French language. It focuses on developing your intercultural, reading, listening, speaking, and writing skills. By the end of this course, you will be able to communicate about family, housing, and school. You will also gain familiarity with French-speaking communities around the world. The course features preparatory and practice activities outside of class designed to encourage analysis of language structure so that class time can be primarily devoted to meaningful interaction in French.
Class Description:

Bonjour! From Africa to Europe to North America (including Maine and Louisiana!), French is a global language of diplomacy and commerce. Join us in learning to communicate in the French-speaking world while exploring how these communities consider how our heritage, the way we spend our time, and what we eat (where, when, and how) relate to our identities, culture, and values. After all, learning a new language is more than learning grammar and vocabulary!


Beginning French I (French 1001) is designed for students with little or no knowledge of the French language. Through this course, you will expand your ability to interact in a multilingual, multicultural world by developing your identity as an effective multilingual communicator, a cross-cultural navigator, a critical and analytical thinker, and a life-long learner. You will build these skills by interacting in French with your peers in class and engaging with texts created by and for French speakers. To conclude each unit, you'll use your French skills in a project that simulates a real-world task. Throughout your learning journey, you'll continually reflect on your successes, challenges, and progress. Upon successful completion of this course, you will be prepared to continue this journey in French 1002.

Class Description:
This course is intended for students with NO previous study of French, or students who have not studied French in recent years (gap of 3 years or more). If you have more than two years of high school French completed within the last year or two, you should register for Fren 4022 which provides students with an accelerated review of Fren 4001 material followed by material covered in Fren 4002. For further information on placement, see your advisor or contact the Department of French and Italian. Fren 4001 is a theme-based course. Students develop their communication skills in French in different areas: speaking, writing, listening and reading. In addition to linguistic skills, students develop a better understanding of diverse aspects of French-speaking cultures. Themes addressed in the course include: student life, family, recreation, life in Francophone cities, housing, Francophone heritage in Northern America and Canada. The text, "Deux Mondes," 6th ed., is accompanied by an electronic workbook (Quia) with a variety of practice activities including listening ones, designed to be used by students outside of class. In the "Deux Mondes" textbook students will work with materials from "Premiere Etape" through Ch. 5. Since the majority of class is devoted to communication activities, class attendance is fundamental. Expect an average of 1.5 hours of outside preparation for each class session hour.

Course Catalog Description:
Bonjour! Join us in learning the global language of diplomacy, culture, cuisine, and commerce! French is spoken on five continents, in approximately 40 countries, and even in Maine and Louisiana. Studying French will deepen your understanding of world history and the relationships between different cultures around the globe and close to home. Studying the language of Les Misérables, Monet, and joie de vivre allows you to access some of the most amazing art, thought, and food on the planet! Beginning French (French 1001) is designed for students with little or no knowledge of the French language. It focuses on developing your intercultural, reading, listening, speaking, and writing skills. By the end of this course, you will be able to communicate about family, housing, and school. You will also gain familiarity with French-speaking communities around the world. The course features preparatory and practice activities outside of class designed to encourage analysis of language structure so that class time can be primarily devoted to meaningful interaction in French.
Class Notes:
http://classinfo.umn.edu/?FREN4001+Fall2020 This course is taught completely online with synchronous Zoom class sessions on Monday through Thursday (plus the first 2 Fridays - Sept. 11 and Sept. 18) during the scheduled class meeting time. Starting September 25, all Fridays will be asynchronous. Required technology: Webcam (built-in or external); Access to a stable Internet connection of at least 512kbps ; Microphone (built-in or external) Recommended technology: Headphones with microphone; Desktop or laptop computer less than six years old with at least 1GB of RAM; Most recent version of Chrome or Firefox
Class Description:
This course is intended for students with NO previous study of French, or students who have not studied French in recent years (gap of 3 years or more). If you have more than two years of high school French completed within the last year or two, you should register for Fren 4022 which provides students with an accelerated review of Fren 4001 material followed by material covered in Fren 4002. For further information on placement, see your advisor or contact the Department of French and Italian. Fren 4001 is a theme-based course. Students develop their communication skills in French in different areas: speaking, writing, listening and reading. In addition to linguistic skills, students develop a better understanding of diverse aspects of French-speaking cultures. Themes addressed in the course include: student life, family, recreation, life in Francophone cities, housing, Francophone heritage in Northern America and Canada. The text, "Deux Mondes," 6th ed., is accompanied by an electronic workbook (Quia) with a variety of practice activities including listening ones, designed to be used by students outside of class. In the "Deux Mondes" textbook students will work with materials from "Premiere Etape" through Ch. 5. Since the majority of class is devoted to communication activities, class attendance is fundamental. Expect an average of 1.5 hours of outside preparation for each class session hour.

Studying the language of Les Misérables, Monet, and joie de vivre allows you to access some of the most amazing art, thought, and food on the planet! Beginning French (French 1001) is designed for students with little or no knowledge of the French language. It focuses on developing your intercultural, reading, listening, speaking, and writing skills. By the end of this course, you will be able to communicate about family, housing, and school. You will also gain familiarity with French-speaking communities around the world. The course features preparatory and practice activities outside of class designed to encourage analysis of language structure so that class time can be primarily devoted to meaningful interaction in French.
Class Description:
This course is intended for students with NO previous study of French, or students who have not studied French in recent years (gap of 3 years or more). If you have more than two years of high school French completed within the last year or two, you should register for Fren 4022 which provides students with an accelerated review of Fren 4001 material followed by material covered in Fren 4002. For further information on placement, see your advisor or contact the Department of French and Italian. Fren 4001 is a theme-based course. Students develop their communication skills in French in different areas: speaking, writing, listening and reading. In addition to linguistic skills, students develop a better understanding of diverse aspects of French-speaking cultures. Themes addressed in the course include: student life, family, recreation, life in Francophone cities, housing, Francophone heritage in Northern America and Canada. The text, "Deux Mondes," 6th ed., is accompanied by an electronic workbook (Quia) with a variety of practice activities including listening ones, designed to be used by students outside of class. In the "Deux Mondes" textbook students will work with materials from "Premiere Etape" through Ch. 5. Since the majority of class is devoted to communication activities, class attendance is fundamental. Expect an average of 1.5 hours of outside preparation for each class session hour.

Course Catalog Description:
Bonjour! Join us in learning the global language of diplomacy, culture, cuisine, and commerce! French is spoken on five continents, in approximately 40 countries, and even in Maine and Louisiana. Studying French will deepen your understanding of world history and the relationships between different cultures around the globe and close to home. Studying the language of Les Misérables, Monet, and joie de vivre allows you to access some of the most amazing art, thought, and food on the planet! Beginning French (French 1001) is designed for students with little or no knowledge of the French language. It focuses on developing your intercultural, reading, listening, speaking, and writing skills. By the end of this course, you will be able to communicate about family, housing, and school. You will also gain familiarity with French-speaking communities around the world. The course features preparatory and practice activities outside of class designed to encourage analysis of language structure so that class time can be primarily devoted to meaningful interaction in French.
Class Notes:
http://classinfo.umn.edu/?FREN4001+Fall2019
Class Description:
This course is intended for students with NO previous study of French, or students who have not studied French in recent years (gap of 3 years or more). If you have more than two years of high school French completed within the last year or two, you should register for Fren 4022 which provides students with an accelerated review of Fren 4001 material followed by material covered in Fren 4002. For further information on placement, see your advisor or contact the Department of French and Italian. Fren 4001 is a theme-based course. Students develop their communication skills in French in different areas: speaking, writing, listening and reading. In addition to linguistic skills, students develop a better understanding of diverse aspects of French-speaking cultures. Themes addressed in the course include: student life, family, recreation, life in Francophone cities, housing, Francophone heritage in Northern America and Canada. The text, "Deux Mondes," 6th ed., is accompanied by an electronic workbook (Quia) with a variety of practice activities including listening ones, designed to be used by students outside of class. In the "Deux Mondes" textbook students will work with materials from "Premiere Etape" through Ch. 5. Since the majority of class is devoted to communication activities, class attendance is fundamental. Expect an average of 1.5 hours of outside preparation for each class session hour.

You will also gain familiarity with French-speaking communities around the world. The course features preparatory and practice activities outside of class designed to encourage analysis of language structure so that class time can be primarily devoted to meaningful interaction in French.
Class Description:
This course is intended for students with NO previous study of French, or students who have not studied French in recent years (gap of 3 years or more). If you have more than two years of high school French completed within the last year or two, you should register for Fren 4022 which provides students with an accelerated review of Fren 4001 material followed by material covered in Fren 4002. For further information on placement, see your advisor or contact the Department of French and Italian. Fren 4001 is a theme-based course. Students develop their communication skills in French in different areas: speaking, writing, listening and reading. In addition to linguistic skills, students develop a better understanding of diverse aspects of French-speaking cultures. Themes addressed in the course include: student life, family, recreation, life in Francophone cities, housing, Francophone heritage in Northern America and Canada. The text, "Deux Mondes," 6th ed., is accompanied by an electronic workbook (Quia) with a variety of practice activities including listening ones, designed to be used by students outside of class. In the "Deux Mondes" textbook students will work with materials from "Premiere Etape" through Ch. 5. Since the majority of class is devoted to communication activities, class attendance is fundamental. Expect an average of 1.5 hours of outside preparation for each class session hour.
