Bienvenue
Welcome to French! I am so glad you are here to experience the latest in education- on line learning! It is awesome and you are going to love it! Convenient and authentic, you will find that this course is one of the best you have ever taken. It may take a week or two for you to learn your way around "our school" but it won't be long before you are shouting "GAVS is the best!" I've already "met" most of you, but just in case you are new, here's a little video about me.

New to GAVS?
It seems like many of you are new to taking a course with GaVS, so it would be a good idea for you to attend or watch a recording of the meeting with our administrators called "Adobe Connect/ D2L Help Session." In this meeting, you will learn how to navigate our website, a course page, participate in discussions, upload work for submission, take assessments, etc. It is well worth your time to watch this and learn what to do. If you have any questions about any of these items, the video will tell you what to do. In addition, if you have technical difficulties (with your computer, the website, the internet, etc.), please ask your facilitator for help. If you have problems with French, ask me. :-)

NEWS is Where It's at! -not behind the at! ;)
Before you email with a question, check the NEWS items on our French course homepage. Many times I've already made a general announcement to the class about any issues in the course that you might be having. Be sure to scroll all the way down and also click on Show all News Items. After that, send me an email with your question and I'll get back to you that day. :-)
