An Introductory French Program. Spiral Paperback, Cengage

Jansma/Kassen/Denie-Higney’s ATELIER, 2e, is designed to introduce all new content online. Guided by the unique MindTap 5-step learning path, students navigate complex concepts to build an understanding of French. Thematic units provide context for vocabulary and grammar. Vocabulary is presented through interactive photo displays, while Jérémie, an animated grammar teacher, uses the "walls of Paris" as a graffiti canvas to illustrate the relevance of grammar structures. “Les copains” episodes feature three friends engaging in conversations that portray how French speakers navigate functional language. Students come to class prepared to converse, with the accompanying manual. Sequenced communicative activities start with input-based interactions, progress to guided practice, and culminate in open-ended communication. Atelier is useful in online, hybrid, flipped or in-person formats.

What's New

  • PERSPECTIVES CULTURELLES. This program features updated cultural perspectives in each module. Students learn about inclusive language and the use of preferred pronouns influenced by cultural shifts in French European and Canadian contexts. The family theme includes changes in marriage and family structures in Québec, France and the French African world. Students learn how Sénégal, the RDC and other Francophone countries in plurilingual Africa deliver kindergarten and first grade education using regional languages. Attention to environmental issues has also been woven into several modules.
  • NEW READINGS. Updated readings include a television interview with Kylian Mbappé after his success at the World Cup, an excerpt from Gaël Faye’s Petit Pays featuring a young boy reminiscing about his childhood in Burundi during the Tutsi Hutu conflict and the portrait of three young environmental activists.
  • UPDATED VOCABULARY. This edition acknowledges and incorporates the preferences and concerns of Gen Z which often significantly deviate from those of previous generations. For example, the smart phone has replaced many traditional objects and devices like earbuds and scooters have become prevalent. Environmentally-related themes are included as well as updates to topics, including télétravail, new apps and technologies and new ways of hanging out and making friends. Changes in popular culture include famous people, current events and media.
  • LES COPAINS FILM. In this film, shot on location in Paris, students see the functional language they are learning come to life as they watch three friends tell stories, talk about what they like, give advice, complain and converse about other social situations. Each episode is now prominently labeled in the manual and MindTap, allowing instructors and students to conveniently locate and access it along with its corresponding activities.
  • MINDTAP CONNECTIONS. Icons and notes have been added so instructors can easily identify activities that have print and online components or counterparts.
  • COMMUNICATIVE VIDEO ACTIVITES. Located online, these communication activities provide students with opportunities to practice speaking through simulated, real-life conversations with a diverse range of native speakers from around the world.

Features

  • ONLINE ACTIVITIES. The program is distinct in that the online learning platform is meticulously crafted to introduce new material through a carefully sequenced combination of narrated videos and images, followed by practice. This makes the program useful for fully online, hybrid, flipped or traditional classroom settings. Even for a traditional classroom, assigning Jérémie, the online grammar teacher, allows the classroom instructor to have more time for communicative activities.
  • UNIQUE STUDENT MANUAL. The Atelier Class Manual provides high interest themes with well scaffolded activities that offer students the support they need to discuss topics of genuine personal interest. This scaffolding helps bridge the gap between students’ limited French proficiency and the more extensive thoughts they’d like to express. For example, on the topic of living situations, students receive an extensive list of amenities which they are asked to prioritize. This results in interesting, meaningful interactions in the classroom.
  • DIVERSE FRANCOPHONE PERSPECTIVES. Francophone perspectives are consistently incorporated within its Module themes and the Perspectives Culturelles features. For example, the topic “travail en évolution” introduces what young people in the French-speaking world look for in the work world and shows the increased importance of a business’s values. It profiles a young French woman and Canadian man talking about their work and what matters most to them in their jobs.
