FREN 1120 is the equivalent level of FREN 1220 and also meets 5 times a week, but it is offered in the summer as opposed to FREN 1220, which is offered in the spring.  In order to achieve the same goals, this course is designed to provide students with a thorough grounding in French language and an introduction to intercultural competence as preparation for real-world application or eventual work in literary or cultural studies.  Classes provide context-and genre-specific practice in speaking, listening, reading, and writing, as well as analytical  skills for grammar, in order to help students develop the necessary tools for becoming independent language learners.

The goal of this low-intermediate course is to achieve a higher level of comprehension as well as to advance oral and written expression in a cultural context. Classes are in Spanish and the language is actively used in communicative and creative activities. Students engage in linguistic and literary analysis of texts to acquire new vocabulary, complete analytical exercises, and develop reading strategies. Students continue developing writing skills through composition, and review grammatical structures independently with some clarification by the instructor as needed. After this course, students may take SPAN 2000, SPAN 2070, or SPAN 2090.
