Target learner levels level A2 to B2.

Training objectives : The aim of this workshop will be to open a short reflection on the potential and limits of image generation by AI in the context of teaching French as a foreign language. A series of turnkey activities will then be presented, illustrating possible uses for different levels.

• The potential of AI image generation as a pedagogical tool
• The technical limitations and constraints of using this tool in the classroom
• Introducing and getting to grips with AI for image generation
• Suggested individual digital activity for level A2: An almost perfect room
• Suggested digital group activity for levels B1-B2, inspired by the game "Esquissé?
• Proposal for an ice-breaking digital activity based on avatar creation
• Exchange and critical feedback on proposed activities
• Reflecting on the success criteria of an activity using AI image generation
• Putting it into practice: experimentation and brainstorming

How we work After a short introduction to AI-based image generation, participants will be actively encouraged to take ownership of the proposed tool as users, initially by setting up the proposed activities. Following critical reflection, participants will be encouraged to apprehend the tool and its potential in their role as teachers.
