This course provides extensive opportunities for students to speak and interact in French
independently. Students will develop their listening, speaking, reading, and writing skills,
apply language learning strategies in a wide variety of real-life situations, and develop
their creative and critical thinking skills through responding to and interacting with a
variety of oral and written texts. They will also enrich their understanding and appreciation
of diverse French-speaking communities, and will develop skills necessary for lifelong
language learning.
