Summary
You will have the opportunity to review and practice your French while learning about French and Francophone cultures. Using authentic cultural material, we will work on building vocabulary, listening and writing skills, reviewing grammar and improving conversational abilities.
Prerequisite: French 2.
Note: You will not be able to view the course on your Canvas Dashboard or access the materials until the course start date.
Course format
Instructional videos and interactive online materials in the Canvas course platform introduce new grammar and vocabulary and teach pronunciation, listening and reading skills. Participants should budget 3–4 hours a week to work through the online asynchronous materials in preparation for the live online conversation groups. For the first sessions, you will meet with your instructor in small groups of 3–6 students for 30–minutes, then move to one-hour sessions with 6–12 students. Groups will vary weekly, so participants should be available the entire one-hour time slot. Online course materials available one week before first live conversation class and remain accessible for one month after the course ends.
