Linguistische Kompetenzen zukünftiger Französischlehrerinnen und -lehrer: Perspektiven für die Hochschuldidaktik

Abstract

This volume critically examines the essential content and competencies required for the preparation of prospective French language teachers within the framework of contemporary, modularised teacher education programmes and competency-based foreign language instruction. Addressing the subject from the intersecting perspectives of linguistics, language didactics, and higher education pedagogy, the contributions offer a comprehensive reflection on the design and implementation of linguistics teaching in initial teacher education.

Focusing on key thematic areas such as French language history, the subjunctive mood, lexicology, error correction, and pragmatics, the chapters demonstrate how disciplinary knowledge can be meaningfully integrated with pedagogical practice. The volume foregrounds the professional and didactic qualifications necessary for instructors to facilitate effective learning and competency development.

Moreover, it explores the potential for productive collaboration between linguistics and language didactics, identifying synergies that enhance both theoretical understanding and practical application in teacher training. The book thereby provides a rigorous and forward-looking contribution to the ongoing discourse on the preparation of future educators in French language teaching.

Intended for scholars, teacher educators, and higher education practitioners, this volume serves as a valuable resource for those engaged in the advancement of foreign language teacher education within the Romance linguistics domain.
