This course features intensive work on French grammar, with emphasis on the acquisition of basic active skills (speaking, reading, writing and vocabulary building). We will be using the multimedia program, Totem, which employs only authentic French, allowing students to use the language colloquially and creatively in a short amount of time. Three hours a week for explanation and demonstration, plus small sections with French assistants. This course prepares students for FREN 103. For students without previous training in French.

In this course, taught synchronously via Zoom with asynchronous features, we will use a range of digital tools (including the online textbook material, video, discussion forums, document collaboration, presentations) to support goals of language acquisition

Fall semester: Visiting Lecturer Tapley and Assistants. Spring semester: Senior Lecturer Uhden and Assistants.

Permission is required for interchange registration during the add/drop period only.
