Prereq: 1002 or 1022 or Entrance Proficiency Test Description: This course is designed for students who have completed Fren 1002 or 1022 with a C- or better or who have successfully passed the EPT (Entrance Proficiency Test) for this level. In this course students build on the interpersonal, interpretive and presentational skills developed in beginning French and on their knowledge and understanding of Francophone practices and products. Culture is taught through multimedia and cultural readings. Fren 1003 is a theme-based course. Themes addressed in this course include: French media and cinema, the French resistance, wellness and health, current French family, societal and global issues. The text, "Deux Mondes," 6th ed., is accompanied by an electronic workbook (Quia/Centro) 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 Ch. 11 through Ch. 14. They will also work with the film `Le Chemin du Retour' available on the course site: the story of a young French journalist and her pursuit of the truth about her grandfather's past. 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.
