Using Multimedia to Teach French Language and Culture APPROVED Copyright by Florence Marie Lemoine 2012 The Report Committee for Florence Marie Lemoine Certifies that this is the approved version of the following report: Using Multimedia to Teach French Language and Culture APPROVED BY SUPERVISING COMMITTEE: Supervisor: Carl Blyth Elaine Horwitz Using Multimedia to Teach French Language and Culture by Florence Marie Lemoine, B.A. Report Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts The University of Texas at Austin December 2012 Dedication To all French learners, may you have fun along the process of learning this language! Acknowledgements I would like to thank all of you who have made this career switch to French teaching possible, in particular my professors at UT - Dr. Blyth, Dr. Horwitz, Dr. Sardegna, Dr. Pulido, Dr. Schallert, and Dr. Tissières - and all my friends in Foreign Language Education. I also wish to thank my husband Roland and my two sons Théo and Marius for their help and support during the past two years. v Abstract Using Multimedia to Teach French Language and Culture Florence Marie Lemoine, M.A. The University of Texas at Austin, 2012 Supervisor: Carl Blyth In order for the study of French to survive in American higher education, it will be necessary to adopt a pedagogy that motivates learners as well as teaches them both language and culture. I argue that the judicious use of visual materials (film, video and graphic novels) is ideal for this undertaking. I further assert—based upon numerous sources from fields such as Second Language Acquisition, cognitive psychology, anthropology and sociolinguistics--that language and culture are inseparable, and that visual materials provide the necessary context to facilitate the teaching of both. Visual materials present both problems and opportunities. I discuss such difficulties as cognitive overload (i.e., students’ being overwhelmed by too much information in too short a period of time) and suggest practical solutions. I also present criteria for the selection of films, such as appropriateness, learning goals and appeal to US university students. I also show how authentic media such as video can be adapted for all proficiency levels (e.g., assigning beginners’ simple word recognition tasks). In considering graphic vi novels, I suggest a familiar comic strip, Tintin, which is appropriate for beginning to advanced students, and which is likely to appeal to all students, given its American film adaptation. In the appendices, I include applications of the points presented in this report. In the conclusion, I argue that, regardless of the length formal instruction in French, this pedagogy can support practical skills (for example, dealing with people from other cultures) and lifelong learning (for example, staying involved with French culture through the aforementioned media). vii Table of Contents List of Figures ...................................................................................................................... xi Introduction ......................................................................................................................... 1 Chapter 1 -

Using materials that will attract and motivate students is especially important for those promoting the teaching of French for several reasons: 1) English has become the economic and cultural lingua franca. It is the language of globalization. Even in France and other Francophone countries, proficiency in English is essential to communicate with those speaking other languages. 2) Students in English-speaking countries are less likely to study foreign languages. In the UK, in August, 2011, the BBC1 reported a 22% drop in the numbers of teenagers taking foreign languages at GCSE2 between 2006 and 2011. French enrollments dropped more than those of any other foreign language: the number of French exam entries fell 29% in that short time period. In the US, the situation is quite similar3. 3) Spanish is, by far, the most popular foreign

  • French Film Series to Conclude with Works from Final Period of the Classic Tradition
    The Museum of Modern Art Department of Film 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. 10019 Tel: 212-708-9400 Cable: MODERNART Telex: 62370 MODART ENTRANCE at 18 W. 54 #42 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE FRENCH FILM SERIES TO CONCLUDE WITH WORKS FROM FINAL PERIOD OF THE CLASSIC TRADITION In its final months, REDISCOVERING FRENCH FILM PART II, The Museum of Modern Art's comprehensive survey of French film history, will screen classics from the 1940s and • 50s, then pause to look back at the very beginnings of the long tradition of French filmmaking. The schedule for August begins with a look at the French cinema at the time of the Occupation and features two rare films of the liberation: Le Six Juin a l'Aube, a documentary made by the great feature film director Jean Gremillon, and Rene Clement's La Bataille du Rail. Also scheduled in August are two of the most striking French films noirs of the postwar period, Clouzot's Quai des Qrfevres and Yves All^gret's De'dee d'An vers, Simone Signoret's star-making vehicle. In September, the schedule will focus on the films of the 1950s, during the last flowering of the classic tradition before the tumult of the New Wave. Among the highlights are two film adaptations of Emile Zola's scathing social fiction—Julien Duvivier's Pot-Bouille and Marcel Carne*' s updated Therese Raquin—plus La Marie du Port, a rarely seen Carrie vehicle for France's most durable male star, Jean Gabin. Many of the most prominent French films of the '50s retreated into an acid-tinged nostalgia for the past; such resplendent examples of this tendency as Max Ophuls's La Ronde and Le Plaisir, Rene Clair's Les Grandes Manoeuvres and Les Belles-de-Nuit, and Jean Renoir's French Can-can are scheduled.

  • 1 Adapting Pagnol and Provence. Jeremy Strong Abstract This Chapter Examines Marcel Pagnol's Novel L'eau Des Collines
    Adapting Pagnol and Provence. Jeremy Strong Abstract This chapter examines Marcel Pagnol’s novel L’eau des collines (comprising Jean de Florette and Manon des Sources: 1962) and their film adaptations (Dir. Claude Berri, 1986). It places particular emphasis on the construction of the adaptations as a major French cultural event and as constitutive of what would come to be termed ‘heritage cinema’. The role of the films – in particular their lush cinematography and representation of the Provencal countryside – in the subsequent explosion of tourist interest and second-home ownership in Provence will also be discussed. Drawing on texts as diverse as Peter Mayle’s A Year in Provence (1989) and the critical literature of Travel and Tourism Studies, the chapter examines the role of books and their screen adaptations in shaping attitudes to places and people. Keywords: Adaptation, Provence, Tourism, Travel, Adaptation Tourism, Psychogeography, Marcel Pagnol, Peter Mayle. Introduction It is nearly impossible to commence this chapter without remarking upon the coincidence that Marcel Pagnol’s birth in 1895 in Aubagne, Provence, was in the same year that his countrymen Auguste and Louis Lumière held the first public screenings of their cinematograph in Paris. Yet Brett Bowles reminds readers that this pleasing accident of chronology was not necessarily ‘a sign that Pagnol’s fate was somehow cosmically intertwined with cinema’ (Bowles, 2012a. 10). Bowles indicates that while Pagnol’s family history did not readily suggest a nascent facility for any particular art-form, including the newest, what was to prove remarkable was his success across several media and roles.

Marius’ biggest dream is to embark on one of the boats passing by his dad’s bar and to set off to a faraway land. Fanny, a young and pretty seafood peddler, has secretly been in love with Marius since her childhood; Marius, never admitting it, has always loved Fanny. One day, a sailor drops by La Marine and offers him a job on an exploratory ship. Trying to hold him off and to make him jealous, Fanny confesses his love to him and provokes a fight between Marius and one of César’s old friends, Panisse, a boat merchant, who despite his old age, has been courting Fanny for a while. Torn between the call of the sea and his love for her, Marius abandons his dream to be with Fanny who gives herself to him. As César and Honorine, Fanny’s mother, are getting ready for the wedding, Marius changes his mind, drawn back to the call of the sea. Sacrificing her love, Fanny convinces Marius to embark on his journey, leaving her behind. Devastated but holding back her tears, she hides Marius’ decision to his father.

    INTEGRATING READING WITH MULTIPLE INTELLIGENCES Reading Unit for Grade 12 Core French, University Preparation, FSF 4U This additional resource for Core French provides a teaching model designed to engage the students' Multiple Intelligences throughout the study of the play, Fanny, by Marcel Pagnol. This unit is designed to meet the expectations of the course FSF4U of the Ontario Curriculum, Grades 11 and 12, French As a Second Language - Core, Extended, and Immersion French, 2000 document. Unit Description In this unit, students examine the play Fanny and its key elements, including the historical and cultural context of the story. The teaching and learning methodologies build students’ strategies for reading. The activities - learning, assessment and evaluation - engage Multiple Intelligences and promote Cooperative Learning. In the final task, a simulation activity, students become santonniers who create a model for the santons collection of the museum Le Petit Monde de Marcel Pagnol. The model represents a scene from the play Fanny, and incorporates elements of culture researched in the pre-reading stage. Unit Planning Model This unit, designed on an expectations-based planning model, follows a three-step process for planning that is outlined in the introduction of the Handbook. The unit lists only the expectations for the reading strand that the learning activities meet. However, because the reading process naturally integrates oral communication, reading and writing, curriculum expectations from the other strands are met throughout
