Language

French

Main themes

The thesis project is an opportunity for students to develop a concrete educational project related to teaching French as a foreign language. This project can take various forms:

• designing a French as a foreign language course for specific purposes (professional, academic, etc.), including a needs analysis; 
• development of an innovative teaching resource (textbook, teaching sequence, digital tool, etc.); 
• development of a digital platform, application, or online course, incorporating generative AI, for example; 
• development of a system for assessing French skills;
• design of a training program for FLE teachers; 
• any other project related to educational coordination, material design, or training in French. 

The thesis-project may be part of an internship at a French teaching institution, allowing for immersion in a specific educational setting.
