Handbook

This subject is an interactive, semi-intensive language subject. It is the entry point to the French major for beginners or near-beginners in French. Although no prior knowledge of the language is assumed, progress through the syllabus is scaffolded and highly structured with the objective of bringing students to the level of an HSC pass in one academic year. There is a dual focus on communicative and structural aspects of the language. Grammar is supported by an online guided independent study program and extended by multimedia activities. Oral and written tasks are regularly assessed throughout the semester.
