Synopsis: This unit builds on the skills acquired in French Studies 7 and 8. Through homework prepared under guidance and class tutorials, it will help students to refine their written and oral proficiency in the areas of exposition and argumentation. Analytical work on selected documents will allow students to develop a critical awareness of some of the main socio-cultural issues in the French-speaking world. The unit constitutes an excellent preparation for the DALF exam (B1 & B2 units), a prerequisite when seeking entry to most postgraduate courses in French universities and applying for French government scholarships.
