Description:

Prerequisite(s): French 212. This course is designed to improve writing, reading and speaking skills and develop an awareness of style.

Students will be asked to write short compositions and there will be the opportunity for rewrites. Various strategies for analyzing literary and non-literary texts will also be used and techniques for "explication de texte" will be examined. The oral component will enable students to increase their conversational skills in discussions and presentations based on the texts studied.
