Expanded Course Description
The French 200-level sequence is an intermediate-level course designed to provide you with an active and rewarding learning experience as you (1) strengthen your language skills (real-world, or instrumental, use of French), (2) deepen your knowledge of the cultures of the French-speaking world, and (3) use a second language to improve your overall literacy (reading, writing, listening, speaking).
The completion of this sequence (FR 203) is one means of satisfying the UO BA language requirement. These courses devote extensive practice to oral skill development in real-world contexts; by the end of the sequence, the average student should be able to converse with native speakers on many topics of everyday interest (family, studies, travels, holidays, etc.), as well as articulate the most important cultural, social, and historical information about Francophone communities around the world. The goal we set for most students corresponds roughly to the Intermediate-Mid level of the ACTFL Proficiency Guidelines, although many students may surpass this basic level, depending on their personal investment in the course and hours of study.
Language study is a crucial part of a broad education. As a core part of a humanities curriculum, these courses expose students to the diversity of cultures of the French-speaking world. Students will be exposed to and asked their views on current political and social issues, history events, expressions of art and music, and other related areas.
