There is no other way to report on this event than by expressing immense gratitude. So, MILLE MERCIS Natacha Muller, director of The French Loop for guiding us during a whole day and showing us ways to create 'des occasions théâtrales' in our classes. An apt sub-title for l'Atelier théâtre would be FAIRE FEU DE TOUT BOIS, the name of one of the workshops proposed.
On 19 February, 34 teachers from across Victoria and one who flew all the way from South Korea for the day attended the first session
of the AFTV 2024 Nailing it! series.
The workshop was a great opportunity for teachers of the VCE course to get together, network and discuss their understanding of the
course assessment requirements. During the workshop we examined how to design effective outcomes using examples, shared useful tips and
advice on how to prepare students, design rubrics, give effective feedback and what to keep in mind when marking Unit 3 outcomes.
On 25 March was held the AFTV online conference that offered a variety of professional learning sessions all aimed at supporting teachers to
build and increase student motivation in the French classroom.
The conference opened with a brilliant and thought-provoking interactive workshop by renown Dr Liam Printer on building intrinsic
motivation. The workshop was extremely well received, and we all gained practical ideas and renewed motivation ourselves! Thank you to Dr
Liam Printer for taking the time on a Sunday night at 10.45 pm Switzerland time to share his expertise with us.
23 AFTV Members and Guests had an early start on Sunday 19 May, to arrive in Bendigo for our 3 part excursion- an introductory lecture at the Latrobe Art Institute delivered by Delphine Laboreau-Ormancey, (Tête-à-Tête), On View café's French themed lunch and then of course the exhibition itself: Paris - Impressions of Life 1880 - 1925
On Monday 20 May, a group of educators participated in the AFTV's first Tech It Easy workshops for 2024: Tech-tastic Teaching
- Crafting Compelling Language Lessons with Technology.
The 'Tech-tastic Teaching' session, guided by Philippe Messer, was a vibrant professional development event that brought educators together
to explore some fun and engaging ways to include technology in the languages classroom.
On 3 June was held the second session of the AFTV 2024 Nailing it! Series focussing on designing outcomes for Units 2 and 4.
30 teachers came together and it was again a great opportunity to network and deepen their understanding of study design.
