Tous en ligne !

All online!

Il aura fallu cette terrible crise sanitaire pour lancer du jour au lendemain l’Alliance Française d’Ahmedabad dans la mise en place du tout en ligne. Nous l’avons réalisé avec succès et l’enseignement en ligne présente même des avantages que nous ne manquerons pas de mettre en avant pour l’avenir : la transmission en temps réel des documents, le nom des étudiants que le professeur peut voir en permanence, le transfert des tableaux partagés, la facilité à inviter un intervenant etc.

L’utilisation intensive d’Apolearn avait mis des années à prendre forme, avec My Alliance il fait dorénavant parti du quotidien pédagogique.

Certes, nous restons profondément attachés au contact humain qui est au centre de la pédagogie de l’Alliance Française, mais l’enseignement en ligne peut reprendre en grande partie les principes du jeu de rôles à 2 et de l’interaction entre étudiants.

It took this terrible health crisis to launch overnight the Alliance Française d’Ahmedabad in the establishment of the all online. We have achieved this successfully and online teaching has even advantages that we will not fail to highlight for the future : the real-time transmission of documents, the names of students that the teacher can see at all times, the transfer of shared boards, the ease of inviting a speaker, etc. The intensive use of Apolearn had taken years to take shape, with My Alliance it is now part of the pedagogical daily.

Of course, we remain deeply attached to the human contact that is at the heart of the AF Ahmedabad pedagogy, but online teaching can largely embrace the principles of 2-role play and student interaction.

Il ne faut pas couper le lien avec la langue que nous vivons à l’Alliance Française d’Ahmedabad, car une langue vivante nécessite une pratique constante jusqu’à devenir une partie de soi-même. N’ayez pas peur des cours en ligne, c’est nouveau pour beaucoup, mais cela marche très bien. Nous vous accompagnerons jusqu’à la réalisation de vos rêves.

La culture française fait aussi partie de nos rendez-vous hebdomadaires avec le ciné-club les mercredis et le café philo les vendredis, regardez nos expositions en ligne sur instagram et facebook, suivez nos vidéos, le français doit rester omniprésent dans vos vies. Il vous apporte aussi courage et espoir dans votre avenir avec la lumière de la réalisation de vos projets d’études, d’immigration de culture française grâce à « Culturethèque » ou tout simplement de culture de soi.

We must not cut the link with the language we live in the AF Ahmedabad, because a living language requires constant practice until it becomes a part of oneself. Do not be afraid of online classes, this is new for many, but it works very well. We will accompany you to the realization of your dreams. Facebook, Instagram and Facebook, follow our videos, French must remain omnipresent in your lives. French culture is also part of our daily e-gatherings with the ciné-club every Wednesday and café philo every Friday, watch our exhibitions online on instagram and facebook, follow our videos, French must remain omnipresent in your lives. It also brings you courage and hope in your future with the light of carrying out your studies, immigration of the French culture thanks to "Culturethèque" or simply self-culture projects.

Bon courage avec l’Alliance Française d’Ahmedabad à vos côtés, partout et toujours ! Vive le français !

Good luck with the AF Ahmedabad at your side, everywhere and always! Live the French!

Samir, Architect Attracted by the architectural heritage of France and by big names such as Jean Nouvel, this young graduate of Algerian architecture began the challenge of a new experience in Paris with an International Master, Technical Heritage and Territories of the Industry. As part of his training, he participates in workshops in France and Italy. It’s a revelation: as an architect, he wants to combine 21st century innovation while drawing inspiration from the past.

The new Bienvenue en France communication campaign gives voice to those who have chosen France for their higher education. Each portrait traces the student’s journey from his or her country to France, within their establishment, in their professional life, until the realization of their dream.

Twelve alumni volunteered to carry a simple message: “Studying in France made my dream come true”.

Sinaï Cadre amer aux saveurs de l’enfance égarée.

Je s’assoit sur le toit, ondulé de dorures Cavalier chevauchant sa jument déglinguée Il est fier l’animal tétant les moisissures.

Tu Souris Dévêtu De ton mépris Alambiqué; et Catapulte dans l’eau Le souvenir du banquet.

Luisant stigmate du bateau Qui coule en grésillant; à l’ego Proclamée confession, amarré, Que la haine dissolve son laid cargo.

Balustrade écroulée de ta croix, cloué, Je t’aime, se plie, sur les planètes d’argent.

Il s’inscrit dans le ciel et d’un coup beugle

«Emmurez-moi!», pauvre, faux air urgent, Ses poils dressés sa bave perle.

Calme et stimulé, il ploie Sous la peur du néant, Crapule alors proie Se berce, allant, Coule et lève La Terre, Rêve, Joli le je logé a gelé le jour même.
