Introduction to the module

Welcome to “An actor’s studio”!

I think that when you reach a certain level, what you need to do is use the language as much as possible.
In this class, one of the things you will learn is to improvise and thus adapt to a situation and to people, take risks with the language, express various emotions: this means you won’t have time to think in French, you will forget you are actually speaking English and therefore overcome any language blocks.

Evaluation and grading system and catch up exams

All Grading will be on a scale of 0 to 20, unless otherwise stated.

The CF makes up 1/3 of the final grade for the module (UV/UE).
The CC makes up 2/3 of the final grade for the module (UV/UE). This CC grade is made up of equal parts ‘PP’ grade (Presence & Participation), and ‘CC*’ Grade (3 Selected Classroom assignments, as detailed by the teacher: 2 Written Production assignments, and 1 Presentation).

Presence Grade: Learners will receive credit for attending class regularly, up to a maximum of 1/6 of their total grade. Unjustified absences will thus have a direct impact on a learner’s overall grade.
Participation Grade: Learners will be assessed on their participation in class, according to the criteria in ‘classroom expectations’

Validating the tandem program will add 2 bonus points to a learner’s CC grade of the corresponding language course.

CEFR Grade (A1-C2)
Learners will be continuously assessed as to their language level relative to CEFR criteria.
There is NO DIRECT RELATION between a learner’s CC*/CF/PP and their CEFR level.

Une absence non justifiée au CF1 par le service de scolarité centrale entraîne la note 0/20.

CF2
En cas d’échec (note finale inférieure à 10) au CF1, un Contrôle Final 2 (CF2) est organisé.
A LSH, la note de CF2 ne remplace QUE la note du CF1 et, lorsque votre absence au CF1 n'est pas justifiée par la scolarité centrale de votre école, alors votre note finale de module (UV/UE) est plafonnée à 13/20 (donc CC+CF2).

Grades are subject to moderation by the course coordinator. The value of grades may increase or decrease.
