DEPARTMENT OF FOREIGN LANGUAGESIntermediate French Language and Culture IIMonday/Wednesday from ____ to ____Courrier électronique: ________________________________________________________COURSE GOALS(a) Fluency (is the delivery so slow and halting that it interferes with comprehension, or is it beginning to be smoother and more like normal speech?)(b) Pronunciation (is pronunciation accurate enough so as not to interfere with comprehension?)(c) Accuracy (although speech may not be error free, is it correct enough to make sense, to be understood?) Elements to be considered under the category "accuracy" are control of verb tenses appropriate to this level and comprehensibility. Speech that interferes with comprehensibility of the message should be penalized.(d) Vocabulary (is it appropriate for this level and is the student able to use it in context?)(e) Creativity (is the student able to depart from textbook vocabulary, phrases and mostly memorized material in order to demonstrate an emerging ability to engage in meaningful conversation, express feelings and emotions, and to present information accurately?)All tests are cumulative, i.e. they cover all material discussed to date.Students are responsible for all announcements and assignments made in class, even if not listed on the syllabus. Students must find out if any announcements or assignments were made in class during their absences.Assignments may not be made up.
