Workshop 1: Gilles Vogt, FLE teacher at Fransk kulturhus and historian
Discovering and using France’s regional languages in the classroom
France is often perceived as a monolingual country, dominated by “standard French.” Yet several regional languages are still spoken: Breton, Occitan, Corsican, Alsatian, Creole, Basque… This linguistic and cultural heritage, often overlooked, offers a remarkable opportunity to enrich the teaching of French as a foreign language.
In this workshop, we will explore France’s multilingual landscape through a historical, sociolinguistic, and pedagogical approach. We will see how regional languages can become an original tool to work on listening comprehension, linguistic comparison, intercultural awareness, and structured debate. Participants will be invited to design an activity that can be reused in their own classes.
10:05 – 10:20: Break
10:20 – 12:20
Workshop 2: Maxime Rouchet, FLE teacher at Fransk kulturhus and visual arts teacher at Lycée français René Cassin d’Oslo / The French School
How to use artificial intelligence to introduce cultural and artistic content in FLE classes?
This workshop aims to help teachers integrate artificial intelligence into their pedagogical practices in teaching French as a foreign language. Through various hands-on activities, participants will discover how to use AI tools to create or adapt resources that highlight cultural and artistic content. The workshop will provide ideas on how to use these materials while developing language skills, with a creative and intercultural perspective.
12:20 – 12:30: Closing remarks
