“大學用途法語”教學初探—以上外“法語國家高校學術與文化”課程為例

French Teaching for University Purposes—Through the Example of the Course “French Language and Cultures in Francophone Universities” in SISU

在全球化背景下，外語院校日益著重複合型人才培養。上外法語系在加強語言教學、不斷提升學生語言能力的同時，大量派遣學生赴法語國家高校交流學習，依託國際高等教育平臺，説明學生獲取除語言外的其它專業知識，並以此作為“外語+”複合型人才培養的重要舉措。在實踐過程中，我們發現，雖然我系出國交流學生均具有較好法語水準，均能達到甚至超過法國教育署對留學生法語語言水準的要求，但他們在國外求學過程中，還是遇到了不少困難，從而導致部分學生學習成果不盡如人意。為什麼會出現這種狀況？如何加以改善？基於上述問題，上外法語系以“大學用途法語”的概念和理論為基礎，嘗試開設了“法語國家高校學術與文化”課程，希望能夠以此幫助法語專業學生順利地從中國高校學習模式過渡到法語國家高校學習模式，從而使其迅速有效地適應並展開專業知識學習，最大程度地從留學交流中獲益。

 

In the context of globalization, foreign language universities are putting more and more efforts on the education of integrated talents - students with interdisciplinary knowledge. Keeping enhancing the quality of language teaching, the Department of French in Shanghai International Studies University also provides exchange programs for a large number of students, in order to equip them with professional knowledge other than linguistics. However, though these students are able to meet the language requirements of Campus France and capable of attending lessons taught in French, they still encounter many other difficulties during their study abroad. What are the reasons behind? How to overcome this problem? With these questions, we offer a new course called French language and cultures in Francophone Universities based on the concept and theory of French for University purposes, in hope to help the students better adapt to the education in francophone universities and improve their study efficiency and results.
