French III.2

Core Course

This course is a continuation of French III.1. The intention is to further expand students’ proficiency in French. Class lectures will make use of interactive approaches so as to elicit creativity, problem-solving skills, and to encourage participants to become independent users of the language. Various literary and non-literary texts from France and other French-speaking countries will be used, with the aim of stimulating critical reading and discussion. Learning activities will also be supported by audio-visual and web-based materials which will help students to better understand French and francophone socio-cultural environments. Discussion groups will be arranged separately to foster oral expression and debating skills.
