Class Description:
Fren 4002 is intended for students who have completed Fren 4001 or the equivalent. In this course students build on the interpersonal, interpretive and presentational skills developed in first-semester French and on their knowledge and understanding of Francophone practices and products. Culture is taught through multimedia and cultural readings. Fren 4002 is a theme-based course. Themes addressed in this course include: Francophone youth, food, geography, the environment, travel, education and employment. 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. 6 through Ch. 10. 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.
