L’altérité vue par de jeunes apprenants de langue

Abstract

The new pluralistic visions place didactics of contact in a relational dimension, favoring the development of attitudes and the formation of personality. Representations are an enriching repertoire for designing activities on otherness. By the expression of his feelings, the child models his thought mixed with action and imagination. As part of an exploratory experience that we conducted with elementary school pupils, the subjects’ responses showed interest in the other. In addition, exposing students to different forms of otherness promotes their relationship with it, showing attitudes of openness and respect for others.
