Teaching methods and educational projects

The courses take place for the most part in the PEPIM modular space (Partage d'Expérimentations Pédagogiques Innovantes et Modulaires laureate of the Fond d'innovation pédagogique). In this new modular, innovative and connected space (computers-tablets, interactive touch video-projector, mobile interactive whiteboard, etc.) Master 1 students are trained in an active and innovative pedagogy by example.

Several courses are held in the school.

Many courses are based on a project-based pedagogy, such as the collaborative project between AMU's FLE master students and FLE students from a foreign university.

MASTER 2 course 1: Didactics of French as a Foreign Language and Second Language: critical approaches and pedagogical innovations

The second year of the Master's programme includes courses common to both courses as well as courses specific to each course.

This year is characterised by a professional internship and the writing of a research dissertation contextualised to your chosen field. To find out more about the internship, you can download our internship charter.

The internship charter is available on the website.

In order to give students the opportunity to do their internship wherever they wish (in France or abroad), this year of the Master's programme is run at a distance.

Teaching takes place online mainly via the Ametice platform of Aix-Marseille Université.

Groupings by videoconference on the Amuzoom platform are also organised occasionally. The teachers on the team are specialists in online teaching

The course is designed to guide you in the organisation of your year at a distance (schedule of assignments, continuous monitoring), to support you in your work (videoconference meetings, various forums) and to help you create social links between you (group work, social networks).
