Film in the French Classroom: Using Global Themes to Enhance Student Proficiency
Course Description
Energize your classes with films that captivate imagination, make us laugh and cry, lead us to examine the essence of life. This French course offers the unique opportunity to sculpt the direction of communicative competence in your class at any level, based on film, film clips and messages straight from the bedrock of French cinematography. As a French teacher, you will be asked to develop and enrich your own linguistic skills, while adapting engaging activities for your students. Your fellow colleagues will share their own creative inspiration with you as we travel from animated film to thought provoking historical drama. Conducted in French.
