Abstract:

This research explores how a didactic approach based on the acquisition of a coherent linguistic system of reference through a variety of pedagogical tools, suited to diverse learning styles, helps advanced students of English build an oral discursive competence. Within the linguistic framework of the Théorie des Opérations Énonciatives, an operating grammatical system is presented, which articulates “primitive relations” between lexical items, determination, tenses and aspects, modality, and the patterns of logical and argumentative operations underlying complex utterances. By a psycholinguistic analysis of a body of oral productions by non-specialist students, the study tests the efficiency of a teaching approach associating communication and conceptualisation in meaningful communicative tasks, in a project perspective, and activities to develop language awareness of the English system of signs. It also examines the complementarity of group teaching techniques and individualised “scaffolding” in one-to-one conversations for the production of oral speech both fluent and structured.
