Abstract:

C’est ce qu’on dit is a second-year (intermediate-level) companion textbook to
the beginning-level textbook Comme on dit, and as such follows the same basic
format and principles: students work with hundreds of samples of authentic,
nonscripted spoken and written French and are led in a step-by-step manner
from rule discovery to the acquisition of speaking, reading, writing, and
listening competence. The workbook format and inductive presentation of
grammar guarantee a completely student-centered approach, as student input is
required in each and every exercise. Given the more advanced focus of C'est ce
qu'on dit, however, exercises lead students to expand their competence not
just of conversational registers but of formal written and spoken registers,
as well. Programs that take advantage of the full range of speaking,
listening, reading, writing, grammar, and cultural expansion activities in
C'est ce qu'on dit will find it to be a robust standalone program; however, in
the event that programs prefer to include an outside content component,
suggestions are offered in the preface and throughout each unit for ways to
free up classroom time. By the end of C'est ce qu'on dit, an average student
can be expected to have attained the competency objectives described as
Advanced-Low on the ACTFL proficiency scale and as a B1 level on the Common
European Framework scale (CEFR).
