FR 0106 - CONVERSATION HOUR

Minimum Credits: 1
Maximum Credits: 1
Long Description This course is a one-hour weekly conversation workshop taught at the level of French 0103/0104. It is open to all students who have taken French 0102 at Pitt or equivalent elsewhere or who have the same proficiency level as would be expected after completion of such courses. We will approach oral skills in a relaxed and low-stakes environment. Based on the interests of the class, we will engage in various types of "conversation," including, but not limited to, current events in various Francophone polities, cultural products, practices and perspectives as well as speaking practice through debate and role-play. This course is meant to provide an arena to practice French and extra practice for students in 3-credit French language courses (especially 0103 and 0104) desirous of increasing their accuracy and fluency in the spoken language. It also serves students who want to maintain their French skills in order to enroll in a French course in a future semester. Grades will be calculated based on attendance and active participation in class. This course does not satisfy the Dietrich School language requirement.
