About the Book

Engaging and thoroughly updated, Solberg/Bertrand/Dugas' CONTROVERSES, 4th edition, presents timely and provocative issues that are important to the French and francophone world -- and relevant to today's learners. This student-centered, advanced intermediate French program is built around the goals of the ACTFL proficiency standards and French thought. Ideal for the communicative, analytical classroom, it includes high-interest topics and well-crafted activities that spark lively conversation and thoughtful classroom debate, strengthen your conversational skills and help you practice the language. Each chapter provides opportunities for you to express your thoughts verbally and in writing. In addition, grammar exercises are digitized to allow the flexibility of online and hybrid learning.
