FREN1004

Vous êtes les bienvenus! Come join us in exploring some of the foundations of cultural identity. What does it mean to be "French?" What does it mean to be "American?" What are some things that people living within a particular culture have in common as a function of living in that culture? Where do personal and cultural identities intersect? In this course, you'll interact with texts created by and for French speakers to develop your ability to navigate across cultures by exploring cultural practices and perspectives related to cuisine and food justice, deconstructing stereotypes of national and regional identity, and understanding how diversity and inclusion are treated in France and the U.S. You will also continue to develop as a multilingual communicator as you refine and expand your understanding of language concepts you have seen before to help you build confidence comparing, describing, narrating, and elaborating in French and put those skills to use in a unit-final project that simulates a real-world task. Intermediate French II (French 1004) is designed for students who have successfully completed FREN 1003 (grade of C- or better) or have been placed in 1004 through the Entrance Proficiency Test (EPT). Upon successful completion of this course, you should be solidly in the Intermediate ranges of proficiency in French, able to travel, and/or use French for your own goals, or continue your French studies here (FREN 3015 or 3014) or abroad.
