- The aim of the course is to achieve the B2 level (based on the Common European Framework of Reference) of French language competence. Students should understand the main ideas of relatively complex text on both concrete and academic/professional topics, including discussions in their field of specialisation; can interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers quite possible without strain for either party; can produce clear, detailed text on a wide range of academic/professional subjects and explain a viewpoint on a topical issue giving the advantages and disadvantages of various options.
Listening: can understand extended speech and lectures and follow even complex lines of argument provided the topic is reasonably familiar; can understand most media news and current affairs programmes.
Reading: can read academic/professional texts without great difficulty; can read articles and reports concerned with contemporary problems in which the writers adopt a particular stance or viewpoint.
Spoken interaction: can interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers quite possible; can take an active part in discussion in familiar contexts, accounting for and sustaining their views.
Written interaction: can write formal and informal letters, emails, applications and cover letters.
Spoken production: can present clear, detailed descriptions on a wide range of academic/professional subjects related to their field of study and interest; can explain a viewpoint on a topical issue giving the advantages and disadvantages of various options.
Written production: can write clear, detailed text on a wide range of subjects related to their field of study and interest; can write a short academic text, summary, and resume passing on information or giving reasons in support of or against a particular point of view.
Grammar accuracy: shows a relatively high degree of grammatical control; does not make errors which cause misunderstanding, and can correct most of their mistakes; can also use some complex sentence forms.
Grammar and language fluency: can produce stretches of language with a fairly even tempo; although they can be hesitant as they search for patterns and expressions, there are few noticeably long pauses.
Coherence: can use a limited number of cohesive devices to link their utterances into clear, coherent discourse, though there may be some short pauses in a long contribution. - Learning outcomes
