In addition, technical support and personal assistance are available in the Electronic Learning Facility (ELF).<\/p>\n<p>In all our courses, French language is used as often as possible. Classes are conducted with an emphasis on oral communication, but writing, reading and the study of grammar are fully incorporated in our methodology. The appropriate sequence of courses enables a student to acquire a degree of fluency in the language and some insight into the diverse cultural aspects of the countries where the language is spoken.<\/p>\n<p>Additional materials are inserted in the general syllabus in order to motivate the students to participate effectively in their language acquisition. Cultural features are conveyed in order to present an authentic image of the language community. Texts, documents and other materials are presented with a global perspective, and stimulate honest, critical thinking among students on moral, social, political and economic values. Students are able to enroll in civilization, advanced conversation, cinema, business, or independent study courses.<\/p>\n<p>In today&#8217;s world, communication of all kinds is of paramount importance. The ability to speak to business associates in their own language both here and abroad can turn awkward and difficult relationships into success stories. World Languages students at Ramapo will learn functional skills that will make them proficient and culturally aware in many areas where language is used such as international affairs, business, multi-national corporations, international trade, import\/export, education and culture.<\/p>\n<p>The World Language faculty at Ramapo have native fluency in the language they teach and are familiar with the latest language instruction techniques and technology. They are prepared to support their students through demanding but rewarding courses.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"collapsableContent\" tabindex=\"0\" type=\"button\"><div class=\"collapsableTitle\">Requirements of the Minor<\/div>\n<div class=\"courseTable\">\n<ul>\n<li class=\"majorTableHeading\">Subject &amp; Course # &#8211; Title &amp; Course Description<\/li>\n<li class=\"majorTableSubHeading\">Required Courses:<\/li>\n<li><a id=\"69d496e5e944c\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.ramapo.edu\/courses\/LANG201\" target=\"_blank\">LANG 201 - INTERMEDIATE FRENCH I<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a id=\"69d496e5e963b\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.ramapo.edu\/courses\/LANG202\" target=\"_blank\">LANG 202 - INTERMEDIATE FRENCH II<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"majorTableSubHeading\">Choose 2 at the 300 level chosen from the following:<\/li>\n<li><a id=\"69d496e5e9822\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.ramapo.edu\/courses\/LANG301\" target=\"_blank\">LANG 301 - BUSINESS FRENCH I<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a id=\"69d496e5e99d9\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.ramapo.edu\/courses\/LANG303\" target=\"_blank\">LANG 303 - FRENCH CIVILIZATION<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a id=\"69d496e5e9b93\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.ramapo.edu\/courses\/LANG305\" target=\"_blank\">LANG 305 - FRENCH CONVERSATION AND COMPOSITION<\/a><\/li>\n<li class=\"majorTableSubHeading\">Choose 1 course at the 400 level chosen from the following:<\/li>\n<li><a id=\"69d496e5e9d54\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.ramapo.edu\/courses\/LANG402\" target=\"_blank\">LANG 402 - BUSINESS FRENCH II<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a id=\"69d496e5e9ef7\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.ramapo.edu\/courses\/LANG404\" target=\"_blank\">LANG 404 - ADVANCED FRENCH CONVERSATION AND COMPOSITION<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a id=\"69d496e5ea0a7\" href=\"https:\/\/catalog.ramapo.edu\/courses\/LANG407\" target=\"_blank\">LANG 407 - READINGS IN FRENCH LITERATURE<\/a><\/li>\n<li>Students with prior expertise in French language may complete the five courses required in the minor by taking upper level courses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<p>Note: A school core is NOT required for completion of the minor.
