FREN 101 is the first of a pair of beginners\u2019 courses\u2014101 and 102\u2014aligned with level A1 objectives of the Common European Framework of Reference: basic vocabulary, the rudiments of grammar, and familiarization with cultures of the French-speaking world.<\/p>\n<p>FREN 101 introduces the French language and Francophone cultures, opening up their understanding in a worldwide context. With an approach that is communicative and collaborative, and inductive and interactive, the course develops students\u2019 comprehension and the mobilisation of knowledge\u2014<em>savoirs<\/em>\u2014translated into the applied practice of <em>savoir-faire<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>French grammatical structures studied include: common verbs in the present tense, subject pronouns and adjectives for descriptions, prepositions for talking about places, simple negation, and asking questions. These will be applied in practice through:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>listening: understanding everyday communication about yourself, your family, and your immediate surroundings<\/li>\n<li>reading: understanding familiar vocabulary in simple communicative structures; such as advertisements, posters, menus<\/li>\n<li>speaking: asking questions for information or about familiar or everyday topics, and engaging with others in simple conversation using simple sentences and expressions to describe places and people<\/li>\n<li>writing: short observations and portraits of people and places; completing forms and questionnaires; discussing cultural differences; and expressing opinions, ideas, and dreams<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>By the end of the course, students should be able to understand simple communication and to communicate simply about familiar and frequently-encountered topics such as personal information, work, everyday life, identity, tastes, activities, travel, geography, and local environment.<\/p>\n<p>More on the themes, vocabulary, and grammar objectives that are covered in FREN 101 is in the <a href=\"#week\">weekly schedule <\/a>at the end of this syllabus, and is in greater detail in <a class=\"instructure_file_link instructure_scribd_file\" title=\"FREN101 learning objectives .pdf\" href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/fren101and102\/files\/2019\/08\/FREN101-learning-objectives-.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-api-endpoint=\"https:\/\/canvas.ubc.ca\/api\/v1\/courses\/41436\/files\/5240321\" data-api-returntype=\"File\">learning objectives<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h4>LEARNING MATERIALS<\/h4>\n<p><strong>Required<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Nathalie Hirschprung &amp; Tony Tricot. <em>Cosmopolite 1.

Your instructor may also ask you to prepare work in advance for a specific class (ex. a question for discussion) or to complete online (ex. on Canvas); if that is the case, they will inform you accordingly.<\/p>\n<p>Some assessed work is in class: two tests.

A third set of questions will be on closer reading. Each one will be a sentence which (in relation to the text or to French grammar and spelling) is true or false.

For a three-hour class, that is at least six hours\u2019 work; or, a little over an hour every day during the week, and the weekend off. Language learning requires regular practice: like music, dance, martial arts, and sports. It is better to do some French every day than to try to cram all your homework into one session on Sunday afternoon (also, this wrecks your weekend). FREN 101 has workbook practice exercises (<em>Cahier d\u2019activit\u00e9s<\/em>) and optional extra online exercises (<em>Parcours digital<\/em>) to provide you with this practice.

Digital technology is ubiquitous and when used in the classroom presents both learning opportunities and disruptions. At times, the use of such technology will be encouraged in class when appropriate: for example, using a tablet or laptop for research and for taking notes. In general, it is common courtesy to put devices such as cell phones away during discussions and other interactive work with other students, as alerts and notifications from devices can distract you and others. Hunching over a small screen\u2014such as on smartphones and phablets\u2014may also strain your eyes, neck, and back; and may have long-term effects on vision, posture, and general health. So, as a general rule please turn off cell phones during class time and put them away.

UBC values respect for the person and ideas of all members of the academic community. Harassment and discrimination are not tolerated nor is suppression of academic freedom. UBC provides appropriate accommodation for students with disabilities and for religious observances. UBC values academic honesty and students are expected to acknowledge the ideas generated by others and to uphold the highest academic standards in all of their actions.

This is for a practical reason: your instructor has to submit their final grades for your class shortly after that final exam, and as it will take them at least a couple of days to mark the final exam (and they may have other exams to mark from other classes they&#8217;re teaching), they need all marks for all other work from the course to be ready by the time they have finished marking the exam and are calculating and calibrating final grades. That having been said, individual instructors&#8217; policies may vary on amnesties for late work, ranging from none at all (all term work due by the end of the teaching term) to a few days after the final exam.<\/p>\n<p>ABOUT THE FINAL EXAM DATE<\/p>\n<p>The date of the final examination is not yet known. It is not set by your instructor, the course coordinator, or the Department of French, Hispanic and Italian Studies; nor by the Faculty of Arts. They have no control over it. It is set by the Higher Authority that is Enrolment Services. The examination schedule will be available around half-way through the term, and exam locations will be posted shortly after.

It is strongly recommended that you not make any travel plans or purchase tickets until the examination schedules have been published: vacation or other travel is not an acceptable reason for absence from an examination.<\/p>\n<p><em>Document last revised: 2020-02-05.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><i>This is the open public version of a general syllabus for all sections of a course that has multiple sections and multiple instructors. The syllabus may vary from section to section; if \/ once you are registered in this course, your instructor will provide you with their syllabus. Details of the weekly schedule, for example, may vary somewhat from section to section and from instructor to instructor, but following the same general structure and order.\u00a0<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>Sometimes a syllabus will need to be adjusted over the course of the term; that is in the nature of a flexible, responsive, interactive course in live action with human beings. Changes will only ever be in your favour: ex. if a deadline is changed for your class, it will only ever be moved forwards in time to a later date\u2014never to an earlier one\u2014and this will be done in consultation with you and your whole class.<\/i><\/p>\n<p><i>If your instructor or coordinator sees a need to change anything after the syllabus has been distributed at the beginning of term, they will discuss the proposal with the class and then, if you agree to the proposed change, they will update the syllabus. A new, dated electronic syllabus will be emailed to you and provided on Canvas.<\/i><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_680\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-680\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-680\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/fren101and102\/files\/2019\/12\/folon-arbrequipense-300x232.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"232\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/fren101and102\/files\/2019\/12\/folon-arbrequipense-300x232.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/fren101and102\/files\/2019\/12\/folon-arbrequipense-1024x793.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/fren101and102\/files\/2019\/12\/folon-arbrequipense-768x595.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/fren101and102\/files\/2019\/12\/folon-arbrequipense-624x483.jpg 624w, https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/fren101and102\/files\/2019\/12\/folon-arbrequipense.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-680\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">&#8220;L&#8217;arbre qui pense&#8221;<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2020-04-12\u00a0COVID-19 revised general (= for all sections) syllabus, in PDF: https:\/\/www.dropbox.com\/s\/ho66qf8tmbbwnxx\/19W2%20FREN%20101%20syllabus-general%20revised%202020-04-12.pdf?dl=0 Summary of 2020-04-12 changes: \u2014the final exam is OPTIONAL \u2014the final exam is a remote honour-code limited-open-book take-home, open for 24 hours \u2014if you choose to do the exam and its mark raises your final grade, then the exam mark counts \u2014if you choose [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1097,"featured_media":0,"parent":232,"menu_order":1,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-9","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/fren101and102\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/fren101and102\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/fren101and102\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/fren101and102\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1097"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/fren101and102\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9"}],"version-history":[{"count":96,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/fren101and102\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":975,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/fren101and102\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9\/revisions\/975"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/fren101and102\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/232"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/fren101and102\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
