Main themes
The Teaching Unit (UE) is divided into two parts, both related to the didactics of French as a first language (or language of instruction). Each part includes an internship and a seminar accompanying the internship.
For the teaching internship:
In accordance with Title II, Chapter V of the RFIE Decree 2021, the student-intern will be placed in a professional situation in secondary education establishments, whether general or specialized, full-time or in alternating formats, in social promotion secondary education, or artistic secondary education with reduced hours. These professional situations will allow the student to develop their professional project, progressively build their professional identity, adopt a reflective practitioner attitude, deepen their disciplinary knowledge, including French didactics, as well as pedagogical differentiation, remediation, personalized support, co-teaching, the development of competencies related to the teacher’s social role, and progressive learning of autonomous work and teamwork.
In these professional settings, the student-intern will carry out classroom activities (observation of teachers and learners, teaching) and out-of-class activities (for example, observing the school institution, engaging in socio-professional insertion/social organizational activities, active participation in year, discipline, interdisciplinary meetings, project-related meetings, linked to planning strategies, remediation periods, participation in a pedagogical day, class council, or collective or individual parent-teacher meetings).
For the seminar accompanying the internships:
The seminars will work on the teaching identity, the representations of the trainees, and the pedagogical, didactic, relational, social, and organizational dimensions of professional practice, as well as reflexivity, through the creation of a portfolio.
