En avant! Beginning French: 2024 Release ISE

Students learn best when they are connecting with the language as it is used in real-world settings, with each other as a community, and with authentic culture.  En avant! sparks the curiosity that builds these connections as students advance toward communicative and cultural competence in the introductory classroom. 


The En avant! program is built around the following distinctive principles:
Authenticity in presentation of the language and its speakers increases student motivation to learn the language.
A focused approach with systematic review and recycling helps students master a manageable corpus of content.
Instructors need flexibility to support different course schedules as well as in-person, hybrid, or fully-online instruction.
(Inter)active learning draws students into the language acquisition process.
(Inter)cultural competencethe seamless integration of culture and languagehas always been a hallmark of the En avant! program
