Winter 2023 - I found that this class was quite disorganized. I came in with a decent amount of French experience (4 years in high school) and left with less confidence in my French speaking abilities than when I entered. I ended up taking this class P/NP because of the sheer lack of grades that had been entered into the grade book by week 6. When he ended up finally entering the grades around week 8, I realized that my grade was much higher than I thought it was, and changing to P/NP wasn't actually necessary. Elias cancelled the first 3 classes due to illness, and then the 4th was cancelled for MLK day, so we ended up having much less class time than what is normally allotted. The class is half in-person lectures and half online modules in the textbook. The homework modules and the lectures don't perfectly match up sometimes. There are 6 quizzes, 2 midterms, and a final exam. You can revise the writing portions of both midterms to get some missed points back. Your lowest quiz is dropped, and you can make up the second-lowest quiz for missed points as well. There's one presentation that's a part of the first midterm, which is the first or second week of classes. The content of the class covers le futur simple, le subjonctif, l'imparfait and le conditionnel, as well as some new vocabulary from each unit. Attendance is mandatory and participation is graded, and I'd recommend going to every class because he would announce when quizzes were going to be the class before they happened because the dates weren't accurate on the syllabus due to missing the first week of classes. Overall I had a fine experience as someone who isn't particularly passionate about French and took the class to fulfill the language requirement.
