Real French.net |
The realfrench.net website is a collection of free online French-teaching resources developed by the Department of Languages and the Department of Information & Communications, MMU. The project was originally conceived as a means of providing MMU students with self-access materials in French grammar via the internet. However, the project has expanded considerably on this original goal, and now includes messageboards, extensive links pages, a verb conjugator, and France Virtuelle, a collection of internet worksheets aimed at enabling students to visit and learn from French websites. We are also working on a collection of vocabulary-teaching games and activities, including flashcards, hangman, crosswords, and wordsearch, based on minimum core vocab lists of the three GCSE boards, but also including more advanced vocabulary. The grammar-learning section will contain both intermediate and advanced grammar reference materials. The intermediate-level materials contains 64 structure-based units plus word lists featuring numbers, time expressions, countries and weather expressions. The advanced-level materials embraces both the structural and notional-functional approaches, and in addition contains an extensive introduction to the linguistic histories of French and English, units on syntax, spelling and pronunciation, informal and slang French, writing essays, correspondence via mail or telephone, plus a list of false friends. Complementing both grammar references are over 300 interactive self-marking exercises written in Javascript. For more information visit www.realfrench.net |
