Personnages: An Intermediate Course in French Language and Francophone Culture | Michael D. Oates, Jacques F. Dubois
Personnages is an intermediate French text that features a learner-centered, four-skills approach with a strong emphasis on oral communication. Students are exposed to the language and culture of the French-speaking world through features that present characters interacting in different Francophone settings. A full-color design makes the text organization easy to follow and dramatizes its cultural material. The scope and sequence makes the amount of grammar presented in each chapter more manageable for students to learn. Culture is an integral part of what students learn and practice while using the text, which examines Francophone culture by highlighting 10 different French-speaking areas around the world.
