Description

Ce cours se fixe comme objectif de développer la compétence communicative des participant.e.s. Ils seront alors amenés à développer une argumentation construite, cohérente et détaillée et à la présenter de manière claire et méthodique, à décrire des expériences et à participer activement à une discussion informelle. Ainsi, les participant.e.s auront l’occasion de réinvestir leurs savoirs linguistiques dans des situations interactives variées et d’améliorer leur compétence de communication. Exploités à l’aide de documents fabriqués et authentiques, les chapitres tourneront autour des sujets d’intérêt général concernant la France, mais aussi la francophonie extra-hexagonale (la langue française, la protection de l’environnement, la migration, le chômage, le cinéma, la révolution numérique etc.).
