L'Arrivée: jogo sério para potencializar o ensino do francês

This research focuses on the training of French teachers at the Universidade Federal do Pará, especially regarding their acquisition of speaking skills. To master the learning process of a foreign language means getting involved with it, and even more so when we talk about the training of the teachers of a foreign language. When we discuss teaching and learning, we look to strategies and pedagogical resources that might contribute to the acquisition of a skill set that is essential for a French teacher, focusing on their speaking competency. When we look for ways of stimulating the learning and development of this competency, we defined the objective of this research as follows: to develop a serious board game focused on the development of the speaking competency of undergraduate French teachers from the Universidade Federal do Pará. To reach that goal, we established specific objectives that focused on investigating the difficulties faced by these undergraduate teachers in the process of acquiring speaking competency, on the elaboration of tasks and challenges for the game, and on testing and validating the game with the undergraduate students. In this context, we relied on authors whose work supports the use of gamification as a learning tool, such as Schell (2008), Huizinga (2000), as well as authors who discuss the teaching/learning process of French such as Mattar (2009), Germain (1993), among others. We conclude this research by presenting the analysis of the data collected during tests of our educational product with the participants of the research. ; Este trabalho de pesquisa tem como foco a formação de professores de francês na Universidade Federal do Pará, especificamente no que diz respeito ao desenvolvimento de sua competência oral.
