Bonjour!
Bienvenue à notre cours de français!
I hope you will enjoy this French language program.
On average, it takes between 60 and 80 hours to complete all the lessons.
The key to success is to spend at least five hours a week working on this class and you should finish by the deadline.
Please do the lessons in order. This will help you learn what you need to know before you go on.
Please take the final exam that is inside the course on your own when you reach it.
Please email me at cmurdock@utahonline.org if you have any questions or concerns. I check this email address more frequently than any other.
I will update grades in PowerSchool on Wednesdays. You will be responsible for making sure your grade is where you need it by Tuesday night / Wednesday morning if needed for school sports, etc.
I know learning another language is difficult and that is why I am here to help and support you.
Please let me know if you are feeling overwhelmed or just not understanding something. I would love to help; that's why I became a teacher :)
Before the end date of your course, you will need to submit the final project as described in these instructions. I can use this as extra credit if you are 1.5% or less away from the next letter grade but you'll have to be done with the whole course and let me know you need it.
I encourage you to finish the entire course first at least a week before the end date and then go back and re-do a few low-scoring quizzes or tests. I find that this is most beneficial.
Warning: If you do not try, or submit a silly recording, or just silence, or a nonsensical writing assignment, you will get a zero on that assignment.
Do not just copy and paste an answer from an AI bot or Google Translate into the submission box as your answer for writing assignments. This is cheating. You can use tools like that to learn (with permission), but then you need to type out your own answer in your own words in the submission box.
Please notify me via email if something in the course isn't working properly. I will have you check your plugins, use Chrome as a web browser, make sure you're using a laptop, PC, or Mac and not an iPad or Chromebook, and
sometimes just log off and back on.
Also, going up to the green lock on the left of the URL bar and then going to Flash and clicking on "Allow on this site always" helps with Flash problems as well.
If all that doesn't fix it, call Edgenuity Support: (877) 202-0338.
Bonne chance!
