French Faculty Projects

The Painter and French Fiction is similar to the project developed for the course on fairy tales, but it was offered in French and with online PowerPoint presentations developed with student input.

Catherine Ostrow (French, Wesleyan U.)

Pilot Project to Digitize Audio
She is participating in the audio digitizing pilot project at Wesleyan. She will participate in the digitization of the materials for her French 106 course. The CTW Mellon Project, along with Information Technology Services is developing procedures for the delivery of digitized audio in preparation for Wesleyan's move to digital audio (funded in part by a Keck grant) beginning in summer 1998.

Françoise Weaver (French, Trinity C.)

Website for a course on spoken French
She is writing a vocabulary manual which covers topics in the French daily press and delivering this manual over the World Wide Web.

Continuation of a web site designed for a spoken French course.
Françoise Weaver will improve her current web site by making some technical improvements (i.e.: better organizing of the information on the pages, facilitating navigation through pages), adding more content to current chapters and add new ones. She also plans on increasing the multimedia aspect of the website by using more audio. A report of the project is available.
