French in Action is a multimedia course that combines video, audio and print to teach French language and culture as complementary facets of a single reality. It puts you in the presence of authentic, unsimplified French and trains you to use it in the dynamic context of actual communication. A complete, carefully sequenced course, it involves you actively in your own learning and emphasizes communicative proficiency -- not the study of rules and regulations, but the development of skills, self-expression, and cultural insight. FREN115 is the third semester of the four-semester introductory and intermediate French language sequence.
