5. How the exam has changedStudents will work with a greater variety of authentic materials, both print and audio, reflecting
the linguistic and cultural diversity of the French-speaking world.
Literary and journalistic texts but also announcements, advertisements, letters, maps and tables.
Scripted dialogues but also radio interviews, podcasts, public service announcements, brief
presentations.
Criteria for selection are comprehensibility (accent, pace, minimal background noise/overlap) and
relevance to a course theme and to a topic that could interest students.
Materials will be reasonably chosen, but will also reflect a range of cultural perspectives and linguistic
features.
