Perspectives

A Cultural Approach

Introducing Perspectives, a new Intermediate French program that offers a unique focus on the cultural perspectives of the French-speaking world by embedding cultural products and practices into every aspect of instruction. Perspectives teaches students to communicate inside and outside the classroom with competence and understanding in the target culture.
