The course will take bearings on the cardinal questions that every French teacher has. These questions can be for instance: what is at stake ? What are the objectives and the tools to teach French ? What are the teaching and assessment methods ? ,.... The conceptual and methodological outlines will also be seen, allowing the teacher to develop the pupils' reading, writing and oral expression skills, following the requirment of the school. It will also give the pupils some reference knowledge in the language and literature field. The course will also present some entire didactic sequences, which will illustrate the diversity, complementarity and coherence of the activities, that need to be implemented when teaching French. These different objectives will be based on a bibliographical system of reference and on numerous stimulating documents.
Thanks to practical work sessions the students, in small groups, will try out :
1° several activities and different tools to teach French;
2° the different basic constituents of oral expression (voice, rhythm, speech articulation, diction, enunciation situation...) and subtle oral expression skills (expressive reading, conferences, oral report, verbal interactions).
|
| Aims |
1° To initiate, theoretically and through practice, to the notions, methods and disciplinary tools neccesary to be a French teacher for French as a first language. 2° To allow the command of different kinds of oral expressions by systematically trying them out .

14 sessions of magistral course : 1. The cardinal questions are : what is at stake ? What are the objectives and the tools to teach French ? And what are the teaching and assessment methods ? 2. The knowledge and know-how of the French course : the language, the literature ; reading, writing, oral expression. 3. Some examples as an illustration : poetry, narration of life, songs.
13 sessions of workshop in two parts : 1. French didactics : how to start a course or session, how to get people to speak, how to make pupils read and write functional and literary texts, how to use images and sounds together, and how to build a long-term didactic project. 2. Oral expression skills : reading out loud, tellingtales and presentation techniques. While doing the different suggested exercises the students'performance is videotaped.

They also receive a copy of the slides and documents used at each session and an analysis grid containing the constituents of the oral expression.
