FRENCH 1A: HOMESTUDY
MEDIA
REFERENCE GUIDE
Modern
Language Learning has progressed tremendously in the last decade. Increases in technology
have provided a great variety of tools to assist and speed up the learning
process. Unfortunately, the abundance of materials and media can sometimes seem
overwhelming.
It will
take you a while to figure out the different components of the course. However,
once you¹ve completed one chapter, you will understand how the tools work.
You¹ll find that the succeeding chapters will be faster and easier to follow.
In an effort to simplify the usage of the media tools that
accompany the textbook, this reference guide has been compiled for you. It
lists the contents of all of the recorded media, except the optional CD-ROM.
Keep these charts out when beginning a new lesson, so that you¹ll see what
material in the textbook has been recorded. It¹s extremely important to
listen to the recorded material as many times as possible.
THE SUPPLEMENTAL CD
The
supplemental CD contains recordings of the Points de départ narratives in your textbook, as
well as the pronunciation of essential elements of the Formes et fonctions sections. The following is a list
of each of the recordings on this CD.

THE VOCABULARY CD¹s
There are two
vocabulary CD¹s that came packaged with the Lab Audio Program. These vocabulary
CD¹s contain recordings of all of the vocabulary listed at the end of each
chapter. We¹ll be using only the first Vocabulary CD for French 1A (CD#8); CD#9
contains the vocabulary for French 1B.
It is
highly recommended that you listen to the vocabulary tape for each leçon at least once before beginning work on the
lesson. While you won¹t remember most of the meanings of the new vocabulary
until you¹ve worked with the words in context, you¹ll be more likely to learn
them sooner.
The end of
the chapter list can also serve as a reference. When you come across a new word
in a lesson that you don¹t understand, but looks familiar, you can quickly
check the meaning by referring to the list at the end of the chapter. Since
vocabulary is so important in learning any language, it¹s recommended that you
bookmark the vocabulary list for each chapter, perhaps with an index tab or
other convenient place marker.
There are
also both a French-English and an English-French lexicon at the back of your
textbook (beginning on page A13) that contain most of the important vocabulary
used in the book. You can also refer to the free dictionary that was most
likely included your textbook package.

THE STUDENT AUDIO CD¹s
The two Student Audio CD¹s that came with your textbook contain a variety of recordings of material in the textbook that focus on pronunciation and oral response. We will only be using the first CD (Student Audio CD#1) in the French 1A course; the second will be used for French 1B.
The textbook sections recorded on the Student Audio CD¹s are usually preceded by one of the following icons:
 |
or |  |
However, since it¹s sometimes unclear as to what is actually recorded, a list of the recordings, their corresponding chapter, lesson, and page number have been included here.
Be sure to listen to these recordings as many times as possible, especially at the beginning of the course. The pronunciation habits you¹ll acquire early on are those that will most likely continue throughout your study of French. And it is very difficult to rid yourself of an incorrect pronunciation once you¹ve learned an incorrect one.

LAB AUDIO PROGRAM CD¹s
The CD¹s
for the Audio Program are used with the Workbook/Lab Manual to complete the
listening comprehension and speaking sections of the workbook. A small-print
table of contents came with the complete package of course materials. If you
didn¹t purchase the Lab Audio Program with your textbook, or if you have
trouble reading the smaller-print version, you may want to refer to the
contents listed on the next two pages.
