What kinds of spoken French do we find in contemporary song and screen culture? What can the broad range of language varieties evidenced in songs and on screen contribute to the teaching of French?
This conference with Dr David Evans and Dr Pauline Souleau (University of St Andrews) aims to discuss the value of harnessing oral French and new forms of media in the classroom, and how they can help us to reconsider the place of non-standard forms in language teaching and learning, to design new forms of assessment, and to develop students’ transferable skills.
