TEACHING METHODS

Lectures with the support of digital technologies.

The course will be set up as group works with the Flipped classrom and Task based learning modalities in preparation for the global simulation. The frequency will be monitored. 

SYLLABUS/CONTENT

The first part of the course aims to present the cultural and literary specificities of French-speaking overseas literature (America, Africa, Asia, Oceania), . The preparation of the Salon de la Littérature francophone will allow students to develop their knowledge through text manipulation. Following a general presentation by the teacher of the specificities of the Francophonie and of the French-speaking overseas literature, the course will be developed in the form of a flipped classroom and the students will become the agents of their training by actively participating in all phases of construction of the Salon:

- choice of the geographical-cultural area of reference

- choice of the author and the work to be presented at the salon

- preparation of illustrative materials (brochures) for the presentation

- preparation of an oral presentation to be used by high school students during the salon

The syllabus is unique: all lectures will be recorded and all teaching materials will be made available to all students, so it is not deemed appropriate to distinguish the syllabus between frequent and non-attending students.

Colombo linguistic high school. The performance during this event will be subject to peer evaluation by high school students. The execution of the entire course will be subject to evaluation according to the criteria of adequacy to the proposed target, the completeness of the contents displayed and the documentation used for the preparation of the exercises. In the case of students who will not participate in the complete path, a presentation of a portfolio with all the materials to be presented at a virtual book show will be required.
