FREN 303-3 French for the Classroom

Study of the various aspects and problems of French as a second

language.

(Lecture/Tutorial)

FROM: Prerequisite: French

206

or equivalent

TO: ?

Prerequisite: French 301 and French

306

or equivalent (or permission

of the Course Chairman)

Rationale:

French 301: the language prerequisite has been raised by one course

to create more homogenetty among students taking French

303.

The large

majority take this course in their last semester of studies before enter-

ing P.D.P. and therefore already have taken French

301.

The few students

with only F.

206

cannot keep up with the rest of the class.

French

306:

this French linguistics prerequisite has been added because

basic concepts, theories and methods must be known before their applica-

tion to the teaching of French as a second language can be taught.
