Licence - Didactique
Outline of the course
There are three components to the course :
- The Lectures
- The Seminars
- The Observation Period
The links above will take you to a short description on this page.
Using the links at the head of each description will take you to the MainPage
for each component.
- Lectures
- There are thirteen lectures. We will begin by looking at First
Language Acquisition, comparing the theories of Chomsky and Bruner. Then we
will move on to look at Second Language Acquisition, and will use the theories
of Stephen Krashen as a framework which will allow us to examine some of the
main questions raised by SLA theory and research. These lectures are
gradually being replaced by interactive modules. As these appear on the site,
UVSQ students should use these in preference to the lectures, but may refer to
the latter for background information. You can
access the modules here.
-
Seminars
- During the seminars, we will be looking at course planning and
classroom techniques. Students will work in groups to plan lessons and
lesson-sequences, using the Official Instructions and manuals found in
collège and lycée. They will present their work in micro-teaching
sessions.
- Students will work in groups on a project ; at the end of the
semester, they will present the written outline of a learning-sequence (four to
six weeks with a class) with a specific learning level (6e, 5e, 2nd, etc.). One
lesson should be presented in full detail, with a lesson plan and study
materials ; students will be asked to teach the lesson to other members of the
seminar.

-
Observation
- Students will spend thirty hours in schools, observing classes
and talking to teachers and administrators. Half of the time should be spent in
collège and half in lycée. As far as possible, students should
follow one class for ten hours in each establishment. The other five hours may
be spent talking to teachers and administrators and visiting different classes.
Students will write up an account of their experience in the
Rapport d'Observation
