Description

This is the fifth course in a sequence of six French language acquisition courses.

Through an introduction to French culture and civilisation, FREN321 promotes conversational skills and helps students develop the ability to write and comprehend somewhat complex texts (written or audio) on a broad range of topics. An extensive grammar review is included.

The course is taught in French. Topics included are: the regional identity of Brittany, the environment, youth culture and social networks, and two films: Etre et avoir and Le Hérisson.

This course can be credited towards a Diploma in French Language.
