NOVA TENDÊNCIA EM DIDÁCTICA DO FRANCÊS LÍNGUA ESTRANGEIRA: CONSTRANGIMENTOS E DESAFIOS NO CONTEXTO ANGOLANO / NEW TREND IN FRENCH FOREIGN LANGUAGE DIDACTIC: CONSTRAINTS AND CHALLENGES IN THE ANGOLAN CONTEXT

The present study is part of the teaching-learning field of Foreign Languages in the Angolan context, whose aim is to describe the new trend in French Didactics, constraints, and challenges in the Angolan education system. However, the approach to this theme implies re-examining the methodologies that marked the course of Didactics itself, relating them to the pedagogical practices of French teachers in Angola. This is descriptive and explanatory research and theoretically we rely on Claude Germain (1993), Maria Marques (1990), HoniQotb (2009), Vera Maria Candau (2010) and Sousa and Cardoso (2011). The empirical methods used allowed the characterization of the target audience, through the analysis of the governing documents of the education and teaching system and the application of data collection instruments. This research presents partial results of 250 learners of French as a foreign language for specific purposes in the provinces of Benguela, Cabinda, Huila and Luanda.
