Description
Summary:In 2017, a second year student of the master's degree in French as a foreign language, who was doing her internship at the Centre Universitaire d'Études Françaises de Grenoble, took charge of a twenty-hour course for a dozen adults in exile. Her wish was to move away from an educational framework that she considered too formal, in particular by using Facebook as a complement to the face-to-face course. This teacher's experience led us to question the articulation between formal and informal in the different spaces of exchange created on Facebook by the teacher and on Messenger by the learners, particularly concerning the roles of the different participants. Our study focuses on online exchanges between learners and between learners and the teacher. We seek to determine the formal or informal nature of the latter by relying on a certain number of parameters for analysing an exchange situation, with reference to the field of interactional analysis and that of computer-mediated communication.
