Histoires virtuelles vraies

Il est de plus en plus indispensable aujourd’hui de trouver le-s moyen-s de remotiver les élèves mais aussi parfois de se remotiver en tant qu’enseignant. Pour cela, il est essentiel de cerner les différents profils et de prendre en compte les diverses motivations des élèves. Simon Ensor a exploré les possibilités que peuvent offrir les réseaux sociaux pour développer les compétences linguistiques chez l’élève et professionnelles chez le professeur. Il partage ici son expérience dans un premier épisode d'histoires virtuelles vraies. Plusieurs idées présentées ci-dessous sont très courantes dans les pratiques enseignantes dans les pays anglophones (portfolios d’élèves, journal d’apprentissage - learning journal - ou nombreuses ressources pédagogiques disponibles sur les murs de la salle de classe). Toutes ces idées sont assez faciles à mettre en oeuvre et elles peuvent aider à donner un nouveau souffle à l’enseignement des langues vivantes.

The Easter Rising, Dublin 1916

The Irish Republic has organised a whole year of commemorations of the centenary of the Easter Rising, which took place on Easter Monday, 24 April 1916. It was one of the founding events of the Irish Republic, but was and remains an equivocal and divisive rebellion. It is an excellent topic for a Lieux et formes du pouvoir theme and presents opportunities for an EPI with history and geography.
