Projet Télétandem Brésil, trois années d'échanges franco-brésiliens en ligne : le point de vue des étudiants français

Abstract

The telecollaborative project Teletandem Brazil (Unesp, 2006), gathering the University of Lille 3 (France) and the State University of São Paulo (Brazil), enables students to take part in online exchanges. Based on the principles of autonomy and reciprocity, the project engages pairs of students in a collaborative learning of their respective languages and cultures. We analyze the students' opinions on the project, the partnership and the topics covered in the sessions in order to identify elements for a successful partnership, in terms of resources, cultural competence, and relationship between individuals.
