Overview

French for Multidisciplinary Courses Beyond 21st Century Literacies provides readers with a collection of chapters and readings in French that discuss the practical application of the French language across the disciplines. The text is organized into four modules. Module 1 includes a collection of exercises that help readers recognize the French grammar and phonetics they already know within the text, and also identify the grammar and phonetics with which they are not familiar. In Module 2, chapters address the essentials of French through collaboration, how experiential knowledge and social learning can make energy use more sustainable, the artistic link between Paris and New York, and more. Module 3 covers the essentials of French through linguistics, how learning a language can help one build a relationship with a culture, and African values to save the earth. The final module addresses the essentials of French through history and composition, translation, and language and culture in global literacy. French for Multidisciplinary Courses Beyond 21st Century Literacies is an ideal resource for upper division courses in French, as well as those across the disciplines with an international emphasis.
