FRENCH 1 (CUL-221324)

Online Learning Home > Online Learning Catalog > Communications Humanities and Cultural Studies >

Course Description:

This course has been designed for students who have had no previous experience with French language and culture. Students will have the opportunity to learn functional grammar, vocabulary and cultural concepts to apply in interactions at work, with clients or during travel. All language skills will be practiced: listening, speaking, reading and writing. Students will be required to practice weekly speaking and listening skills in real time over the Internet with the instructor and/or teaching assistants. Students should be available for 45 minutes for oral practices scheduled between 7:30-9:00 PM EST at least twice a week. Special accommodations will be made for army students. Because of the intensive nature of learning all aspects of French (reading, writing, listening, speaking, culture), students should be prepared to devote a significant amount of time to the course. Students who do have advanced knowledge of French can not take this course.

Note: This course incorporates web conferencing using Blackboard Collaborate. Students taking this course must have access to a computer that meets the minimum technological requirements which are described in the information for setting up Blackboard Collaborate. Before enrolling, students should know how to successfully use or have tested the web conferencing service on their computer. Students are encouraged to participate in ESC’s Blackboard Collaborate Student Training.
