In this session, applicable to any language, we discuss the results and positive outcomes on teaching two beginning French courses (FREN 1110 and 1120) online with "Portails" and "VoiceThread". We will first describe the courses' structure, methodology and communicative activities, share students' oral and written samples and finally, analyze their overall results and class evaluations. We end our presentation with a general discussion on the rewards, challenges and surprising benefits of teaching beginning language courses fully online.
