Catalog Description: Every semester. The course is also open to students who have had some French (two years in high school). The second half of the elementary language sequence uses the same immersion method as the first. Students learn French with the video/audio program, French in Action.

Semester Details:

Content: French 102 uses the same video/audio program as French 101, French in Action. Building on material in French 101 or an equivalent first year course at the high school level, French 102 broadens the fundamental skills of listening comprehension, speaking, reading and writing. As in French 101, classes are conducted entirely in French. Course work is supplemented by the on-line software program, Oh là là … quelle aventure!  Discovering Basic French. French 102 meets FOUR TIMES a week to maximize the development of communicative proficiency in the second language.

Assessment: 40% of the final grade is based on weekly quizzes; 20% of the final grade is based on compositions; 20% of the final grade is based on two oral examinations; 10% of the final grade is based on activities in the French in Action workbook and in Oh là là … quelle aventure! Discovering Basic French; and 10% of the final grade is based on participation in class.
