FRANÇAIS 1002

Description du cours

Support: Covid-19 ; Black Lives Matter


Student Learning Objectives:
French 1002 is the second course in a three-course sequence. This course builds on the skills acquired during the first semester in order to develop the ability of students to comprehend, speak and write in French about past and future events. Students will learn how to tell a story (narrate, describe, characterize in the past) as well as how to promise, make predictions, and propose simple hypotheses and conjectures. Additionally, students will become more familiar with various aspects of French and Francophone cultures. Students will improve their learning of the basic structures of French grammar through class activities, online practice and homework assignments.
ACTFL proficiency level: Novice Mid / Novice High
Prerequisite: FREN 1001 or equivalent or appropriate Placement Test score.

NOTE: If you have not taken French 1001 at GW, please take the online Placement Test now if you have not already done so.

It is the policy of the Department that classes be conducted in French.
Here are some useful expressions for asking questions and participating in class!:

S'il vous plaît, comment dit-on "---"? (How do you say "---"?)
Excusez-moi, que veut dire "---"? (What does "---" mean?)
Je n'ai pas bien compris. (I didn't really understand.)
Est-ce que vous pouvez répéter s'il vous plaît? (Can you please repeat (that)?)

Academic Honesty :

Students are expected to be familiar with the GW Code of Academic Integrity.

This means that all homework, classwork and exams must be the student's own work. The use of online translation services or of any other translation not that of the student are also considered plagiarism and are not accepted. Consulting notes or supplementary materials of any kind during an exam or other graded work is prohibited unless explicitly allowed by the professor.

In instances when information from other people is appropriate, including print or Internet sources, they must be cited appropriately be they direct quotations or paraphrased material.

If you have any questions or concerns, do not hesitate to contact your professor.

Students who fail to properly cite sources will be subject to sanctions as outlined in the Code of Academic Integrity.

More information is available in the "Guide of Academic Integrity in Online Learning Environments", at rights@gwu.edu or by calling 202-994-6757.

Attendance and make-up policies:

Given the importance of listening and speaking skills, as well as the intensive nature of this course, attending every class is extremely important. More than three unexcused absences of any kind as well as repeated lateness will have a negative effect on your final grade. Penalties will also apply to quizzes and exams missed without official justification. .

Absences with written justification from a doctor, Health Services, coach, program director, etc. are considered excused absences. Absences due to covid-related issues are also excused (written justification is not required), but be sure contact your instructor as soon as possible so that you do not fall behind. (For religious holidays, see below.)

Classes missed due to broken alarm clocks, friends visiting, exams in other courses, and any other reason not mentioned above are considered unexcused absences. Given that these kinds of situations can arise during the course, you are strongly advised to "save" your three allowed absences in case of such emergencies.

EXAMPLES:
Six (6) unexcused absences will lower your participation grade to a maximum of C.
Nine (9) unexcused absences will lower your participation grade to an F.

Make-up work: Students who miss class for whatever reason are expected to submit all homework within 24 hours upon their return to class. Otherwise, the work will receive a grade of F. In-class work (tests, oral exams, etc.) missed due to unexcused absences must be completed within two days upon return to class and are subject to a penalty of up to 10 points (/100) or more.

University Policy on Religious Holidays
1. Students should notify faculty during the first week of the semester of their intention to be absent from class on their day(s) of religious observance.
2. Faculty should extend to these students the courtesy of absence without penalty on such occasions, including permission to make up examinations.
3. Faculty who intend to observe a religious holiday should arrange at the beginning of the semester to reschedule missed classes or to make other provisions for their course-related activities.

Notification about the possible recording of classes

Course lectures may be audio/video recorded and made available to other students in this course. As part of your participation in this course, you may be recorded. If you do not wish to be recorded, please contact the Director of the French Language program. Prof. Marshall, during the first week of class (or as soon as you enroll in the course, whichever is latest).
PLEASE NOTE: If a recording is made, it will be available as a means of reviewing material. The creation of recordings does not in any way exempt students from the attendance policy. This is a synchronous course, and students are expected to attend online at the regular class time.
For more information, contact your professor.

Privacy and protection of copyright regarding class recordings

Students are prohibited from recording and/or distributing recordings of any class activity without permission from the instructor, except as necessary as part of approved accommodations for students with disabilities. Any approved recordings may only be used for the student's own private use.

Participation & Class Preparation:

Outside of class, students are expected to complete all homework assignments on time, review material covered in class, read the textbook and complete all assigned MyFrenchLab (SAM) activities.

Daily, active participation is required of all students. You can best learn French by coming to class on a regular basis and being involved in classroom activities. Note that you are not expected to speak perfect  French! For many activities, your participation grade will be based on your willingness to ask questions and your effort to make yourself understood even if you make mistakes.

NOTE: The use of electronic devices such as cell phones is prohibited at all times and will result in an automatic F for participation. Likewise, a grade of F will be given to any student using a laptop or tablet for any reason other than taking notes or accessing homework or the course eBook.
(Examples of uses that will result in an automatic F: email, Facebook, Twitter, SMS, web browsing, etc.)

Average minimum amount of independent, out-of-class, learning expected per class:
On average, you are expected to spend 60 minutes to prepare new material for each class + 40 minutes to review material from previous classes for a total of 100 minutes of "outside" learning per class. Reviewing is essential for foreign language acquisition, so if you find you are spending over well over 60 minutes on new material and that you do not have time to review, contact your instructor for suggestions.
This makes for 6.7 hours of independent learning, in addition to 3.3 hours of direct in-class instruction, for a total of 10 hours per week.
