FR4059: LEVEL 4 FRENCH LANGUAGE 1 (2015-2016)

Language teaching falls into three broad areas all of which complement each other and contribute to the student's overall command of the French language. One class taken by a native French speaker focuses on oral communicative skills; while another develops competence in the written language at a formal level and also concentrates on the practical applications of language, developing both written and spoken competence in a variety of different registers. The Junior and Senior Honours language courses form a continuum for which the final assessment is not made until the end of the Senior Honours year. Six pieces of written work are required to gain the credits for this course.

This course is run over the full session.

Information on contact teaching time is available from the course guide.

1st Attempt: French Honours language examinations: 3 three-hour written examinations (100%)

All assignments done in classes have a formative role.

Written assignments completed as homework receive CAS marks, which the Course Guide links to specific marking criteria (though these marks do not count towards the classification of the degree), and written feedback in the form of tutors' comments is also given. For activities carried out in class verbal feedback is given by the tutor and other members of the group. Tutors have office hours at which further feedback may be sought.
