FR 0258 - ADVANCED FRENCH CONVERSATION


Minimum Credits: 1
Maximum Credits: 1
An advanced conversation course in French for majors and non-majors who wish to maintain or improve their command of the French language through a discussion of contemporary topics. This one-unit class at once builds on and complements French 0055/0255. It is designed to improve students’ oral proficiency and sociolinguistic competence through contextualized simulated immersion. The course is divided into four sections, each demanding different, but complementary social and linguistic skills, to wit 1) getting to know people and places; 2) current events; 3) debate and disagreement; 4) cultural comparisons. Emphasis is on acquiring the authentic oral communication skills, in the widest sense of the term, necessary to navigate expertly French-speaking environments. This course can be repeated, but can only be counted toward the French major/minor once.
