DESCRIPTION DU COURS:
Le but de ce cours est de développer une compétence professionnelle et critique dans les domaines
de l’enseignement par les tâches et l’évaluation formative et sommative. En particulier, nous allons
explorer les liens théoriques et pratiques entre les approches pédagogiques qui intègrent
l’enseignement par les tâches, et la gamme de possibilités pour inclure l’évaluation dans
l’enseignement. Nous allons mettre le point sur une analyse critique des différentes approches à
l’évaluation pour l’enseignement de langues.
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
The goal of this course is to develop students’ professional and critical perspective in the areas of taskbased language teaching and assessment. In particular, we will explore the theoretical and practical
links between the pedagogical approaches that include tasks as a component, and the variety of
possibilities for including assessment in teaching. We will focus especially on a critical analysis of various
assessment approaches for language teaching.
RÉSULTATS D’APPRENTISSAGE:
À la fin du cours, vous saurez
• Articuler le rôle de la tâche dans l’enseignement de langues et ses bénéfices pédagogiques
• Analyser les parties composantes d’une tâche pour comprendre leur contribution à
l’apprentissage de langue
• Lier les différentes approches à l’évaluation aux contextes d’apprentissage et comprendre les
liens entre l’évaluation et l’approche pédagogique
• Créer un plan pédagogique qui intègre une (ou des) tâches et proposer des techniques
d’évaluation appropriée, et soutenir le tout par une exploration de la théorie
LEARNING OUTCOMES :
At the end of this course, students will be able to
• Articulate the role of task in language teaching and clarify its pedagogical merits
• Analyze the constituent parts of a language task in order to understand their contribution to
language learning
• Link the various approaches used for evaluation in language programs to learning contexts,
and understand the links between assessment choices and pedagogical approaches
•
Create a pedagogical plan that integrates one or more tasks and propose appropriate
assessment techniques, and provide a theoretical justification
FORMAT DU COURS:
This is a fully online course. Students will be expected to use a variety of technologies for ongoing
engagement in course activities and learning tasks. Desire2Learn (D2L) will be used to post class
resources, including links to readings and video, and as a site for ongoing dialogue. To access the
course in D2L, you are required to enter your IT username and password. An active University of
Calgary email address is also required / expected. Adobe Connect will be used for 2 synchronous
seminars in this course. You will also need to have a head set with a microphone.
It is assumed that participants in the course are seeking an opportunity to practice their French while
learning the course content. The course is in French with some flexibility regarding other languages and
bilingual practices are welcome (for example, no need to translate quotations).

1. LEARNING TASK 1: Participation régulière et réfléchie dans les discussions D2L et Adobe Connect
20% de la note du cours
Il faut lire les articles pour chaque semaine et participer aux discussions. Pour certains des
articles c’est le prof qui mène la discussion, pour d’autres c’est un de vos collègues qui va
mener la discussion (afficher des questions de réflexion) – il faut afficher vos réponses et
participer à la discussion qui s’ensuit.
CRITÈRES D’ÉVALUATION : Un «A » représente participation régulière, enthousiaste, réfléchie, avec
des réponses soutenues par votre lecture des articles et chapitres, et informée par vos
expériences personnelles.
Learning Task 1: Regular and thoughtful participation in D2L and Adobe Connect discussions.
20% of course grade.
Students are required to read the assigned articles/web links each week and participate in
discussions. During some weeks, the prof will lead the discussion, while other weeks, your
classmates will lead by posting reflection questions – you should post responses to the questions
and participate in the ensuing discussion.
Criteria for evaluation: An “A” represents regular, enthusiastic and thoughtful participation, with
responses that are backed up by the assigned readings, and informed by your personal
practice.
2. LEARNING TASK 2: Résumé et critique d’un article sur l’évaluation; poser des questions dans D2L
pour collègues, mener la discussion.
20% de la note du cours; dates pour afficher votre travail sur D2L et pour mener la discussion :
les semaines du 6 et 13 février 2017
Vous allez afficher un résumé et critique (500 à 600 mots) d’un article supplémentaire qui fera
la base de la discussion sur D2L. Vous allez aussi afficher des questions pour vos collègues qui
vont provenir de votre article; vous allez également mener la discussion D2L qui se produit à
partir de vos questions. (Les membres de la classe ne seront pas obligés de lire les articles, donc
le résumé et critique devraient être complets, et vos questions devraient en rendre compte.)
Vous pourrez choisir un article qui répond à vos intérêts ou à votre contexte professionnel; il
faut confirmer votre choix d’article avec le professeur.
Learning Task 2 : Summary and critique of an article dealing with assessment; post questions on
D2L for classmates, lead the discussion.
20% of the course grade
Dates for posting your summary on D2L and for leading the discussion: weeks of Feb 6 and 13,
2017.
You will post a summary and critique of 500-600 words of a supplementary article that will lead
to a D2L discussion. You will post questions for your classmates based on the article; you will also
lead the D2L discussion that follows from your questions. Class members are not required to
read all the articles, so your summary and critique of your chosen article must be thorough and
your questions should take into account that your classmates will not necessarily have read the
articles.
You will choose an article that corresponds with your interests or with your professional context;
please confirm your article choice with the professor.
Vous pourrez trouver des articles dans le numéro spécial de La Revue canadienne des langues
vivantes/Canadian Modern Language Review vol 69, no. 4 novembre 2013, ou dans le numéro
