Abstract EN:

The analysis which we had accomplished in the teaching status in Lebanon permitted us to see a certain number of shortcomings which scholastic institutions go through. In fact, since the civil war, teaching in Lebanon has undergone a certain crises mainly in the teaching of the French language. Preoccupied by the scholastic outcome and the efficacy of teachers, the goal of our study is to help those teachers in general - and language teachers in particular - by giving some methods so as to help surmount the teaching crises. To realize this, we have undertaken a series of fieldwork and interviews with teachers, students and parents, in order to find out the most adapted ways which can satisfy the ones and the others. Through our fieldwork, therefore, we have brought into concrete existence a televisual document whose objective is to bring toward perfection the oral comprehension and expression aspects of the French language with the Lebanese public concerned. This document comprises two video cassettes and a workbook. The first cassettes contain video sketches conceived, along with the workbook, so as to train students on oral comprehension and expression, and to trigger up their cultural sensibility through the interpretation of the televisual message. As far as the second video cassette is concerned, the contents of which illustrate the use of such televisual methods in the teaching of the French language. It is also a documentary concerning the way teachers would give their lessons by using pedagogical - audio visual means (in other words, the use of video materials) which illustrate how to use activities. Finally, the present work gives teachers necessary steps of how to use other technological means in teaching, such as cassette-recorders, slides, transparencies, and CD-ROMs.
