L'ordinateur versus le portable en classe de FLE pour travailer l'oral de la mouvelle generation

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

The aim of our study is to expose in the first place the possibility to develop oral skills using a cellphone in teaching French as a foreign language, and then discovering whether a specific audience, the new generation, prefer working on computers or cell phones when it comes to their oral skills. To achieve this objective, we created a series of activites using a cellphone application and a specific computer program. These activities were presented to the students of the North-West University (NWU) on the Potchefstroom campus. We administered questionnaires both before and after the activites to discover students' preferences in working on the two different platforms. From the results we came to the conclusion that students, or more specifically, the new generation, prefer working on their cellphones. Furthermore, we presented recommendations to those who wish to continue research or create and implement activities using a cellphone in language learning.
