Au Boulot! First-Year French<\/a><\/h3>\r\nAu boulot! <\/em>is a two-year college French program consisting of a textbook, a workbook with 21 accompanying audio exercises, and a reference grammar to be used for the entire two years. The text and workbook are shorter and \u201clighter\u201d than the average first-year texts have become in recent years, at least in part because we want to provide a core of grammar presentation and exercises, both mechanical and creative while allowing instructors the flexibility to choose their own reading materials, of which there is a variety of excellent ones available.\r\n\r\nIncludes<\/strong>: Workbook, audio exercises, and reference grammar book.\r\n

Chapeau! First-Year French<\/a><\/h3>\r\nChapeau!<\/em> is a first-year college text. Although it may appear, at first glance, to move very fast and introduce a large amount of material early, the vocabulary and grammatical structures that students are expected to control actively by the end of the year are limited in accord with our notion of a reasonable application of the ACTFL proficiency guidelines.\r\n\r\nIncludes<\/strong>: Workbook, and audio exercises.\r\n

Franc\u0327ais Interactif<\/a><\/h3>\r\nThis open textbook accompanies course content that explores the French language and culture by following students' lives as they participate in intensive French language programming.\r\n\r\nIncludes<\/strong>: videos, audio vocabulary recordings, phonetics lessons, and online activities\r\n

Introduction to French<\/a><\/h3>\r\n

Introduction to French is a basic French language textbook designed to develop reading, writing, and speaking skills of college students in classrooms across Canada.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

Includes<\/strong>: audio files<\/p>\r\n\r\n

Let's Read French Books<\/a><\/h3>\r\nReading books is a great way to learn a language. It helps to discover the culture, learn new words, and be exposed to different language structures in the context. But one of the biggest challenges in language and literature classes is encouraging students to read. This project aims to make reading literary books easier for students by creating an open textbook reader using Public Domain 19th-century French literature. Along with the text, there are activities for students to engage with and discover the text.\r\n\r\nIncludes<\/strong>: Questions, interactive activities, and vocabulary (with audio for pronunciation).\r\n

Libert\u00e9<\/a><\/h3>\r\nThis is an introductory level French textbook that is focused on the communicative approach. Each chapter includes around communicative strategies, culture and grammar.\r\n\r\nIncludes<\/strong>: end-of-chapter exercises\r\n

Paris \u00e0 travers les pages<\/a><\/h3>\r\nParis Through the Pages<\/em> is the culminating project for an advanced level undergraduate French course that explores the images of Paris in literary works from the 17th to 20th centuries. As an open source book, it is intended to be re-used, revised, and repurposed by undergraduate students and academics in French studies. The students who participated in this project spent a semester reading works by French authors from the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries, integrating them within their historical and cultural contexts.\r\n\r\nIncludes<\/strong>: Videos, key takeaways, reflection activity, and quiz.\r\n

Pour une linguistique du d\u00e9veloppement<\/a><\/h3>\r\n

Le d\u00e9veloppement des soci\u00e9t\u00e9s africaines n\u2019est-il qu\u2019une question \u00e9conomique? La linguistique est-elle condamn\u00e9e \u00e0 n\u2019\u00eatre qu\u2019une science positiviste qui observe sans s\u2019impliquer? Ce livre offre de riches perspectives \u00e0 ceux et celles qui r\u00e9pondent non \u00e0 ces deux questions. Il montre qu\u2019il est possible de faire place, dans les sciences du langage, \u00e0 des pr\u00e9occupations citoyennes orient\u00e9es vers la correction d\u2019une pr\u00e9carit\u00e9 communicationnelle nuisible \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9panouissement des soci\u00e9t\u00e9s africaines. Ce que l\u2019autrice propose de nommer \u00ab linguistique du d\u00e9veloppement \u00bb peut, par exemple, aider l\u2019agronome intervenant dans le monde paysan \u00e0 adopter la langue la plus appropri\u00e9e. Des travaux linguistiques de codification ou de traduction peuvent contribuer \u00e0 pr\u00e9server et valoriser des savoirs locaux d\u2019une pertinence sociale attest\u00e9e. Les linguistes peuvent aussi mettre au jour les ressorts langagiers des pratiques corruptives. Il s\u2019agit l\u00e0 de quelques-uns des chantiers de la linguistique du d\u00e9veloppement, nouveau paradigme des sciences du langage au service du bien commun, qui trouve dans ce livre ses fondements th\u00e9oriques et \u00e9thiques.<\/p>\r\n\r\n

R\u00e9sumer, synth\u00e9tiser, argumenter<\/a><\/h3>\r\nLe manuel s\u2019adresse aux \u00e9tudiants de fran\u00e7ais langue seconde de niveau avanc\u00e9.\r\n\r\nIncludes<\/strong>: exercices interactifs, points de langue\r\n
