FR 1104 - Elementary French I

Hours: 4

A multi-media course that combines video, audio and print in authentic French. Students develop language proficiency (especially in listening and speaking) that allows them to participate in real conversations at a very early stage. Using “The Natural Approach”, the course presents material inductively (so that the activities drive the grammar), students quickly become excited about their rapid growth in comprehension and vocabulary acquisition and enjoy speaking in the non-threatening environment made possible by the activity formats. As a web-enhanced course use of ECC’s learning management system and of extensive web resources is required. Students should have access to a computer on an ongoing, regular basis.
