Content
The course is based on communication and the methodology is communicative. Notions of code are not acquired through the learning of vocabulary lists or an exclusively structural approach to grammar.
These are integrated into meaningful contexts and grouped according to functional content.
They are subsequently practised in the form of excercises requiring the development of a global communicative competence.
The didactic materials include very detailed grammatical referencing and drilling exercises common to the structural approach, but the typology of the exercises and the basic materials are very heterogenous : songs, games, debates, newspaper articles, advertisements, short comedy sketches, films, etc.
