Introduction to French and the Francophone World II
S06, S07
Sylvie Waskiewicz, Jean-Frédéric Hennuy 
In the continuation of this yearlong course, students will discover the language and the cultures that make up the French-speaking world. From the beginning, students will read, watch, and listen to various media about a variety of subjects, such as families, leisure, education, and growing up and getting old in today’s society. Media will include newspaper articles, poems, songs, websites, and video clips. From the first day of class, students will speak and write the language, learning to express their feelings and ideas, and communicate effectively through role plays, short dialogues, spontaneous conversations, and expository writing. Attention will be given equally to developing good pronunciation and enunciation, and using proper language structures and register, while learning how to write, talk about, and present a variety of topics in an effective and interesting way.
