The Federation of Associations of Teachers of French in Australia is holding its second national conference in October 2008, in Brisbane. The conference is designed for teachers of French at all levels, from primary school through to tertiary level, and in all sectors (schools, universities, colleges of further education, private providers).

The conference theme is "Les Approches à l’enseignement du français : Approaches to the teaching of French"

Guest speakers:

  • Christian Puren, Université Jean Monnet St-Etienne (France)
  • Michel Wauthion, Université de la Nouvelle Calédonie

In choosing the theme of (plural) approaches to the teaching of French, the organizing committee hopes to encourage reflexion on the multiple methodologies which currently co-exist in the field (AIM, intercultural approaches, immersion, task- and action- based approaches). Accounts of the implementation of action-based approaches and theoretical discussions of this methodology are particularly welcomed.
