Educational Tools Available
At the launch of this website, these mainly consist of short videos created from the work of students of foreign origin in the context of a so-called "reception class" in a French middle school:
Picture Words
The Four Corners of the World
You speak
A Little Man
About the Dragon and Joy
Nature
Country of Origin
Of course, the short activities presented above are simply examples of what could be done within the limitations of a conventional school setting and according to the level of these students, who were complete beginners in FLE (French as a Foreign Language). Anyone wishing to contribute to this website is free to draw on them to imagine and develop multilingual learning and awareness-raising tools. In this respect, one could take inspiration from this research:
Images and Words in the Language Classroom, using Contemporary and/or Awareness-Raising Images (coming soon... this will take time...)
In another area:
Becoming Aware of Dangerous Trends
And... All suggestions are welcome!
Indeed, this page is open and can include as many subpages as there are contributors from all walks of life willing to come forward. For the record, it would be desirable to conceive and formulate them in two language registers: children, and teenagers and young adults. These contributions will be free in every sense of the word. Holistic Educ has never had, and never will have, any commercial purpose. Everything offered on the website (eventually in a plurality of languages) will always be freely accessible. Authors will be invited to remain anonymous or to publish under a pseudonym. There is and there will never be anything to gain here.
