Bodily Cultivation & Cultural Learning

8th International Symposium of CORPUS (International Group for the Cultural Study of the Body)

Almost all cultures recognize as a means of achieving religious or spiritual goals, cultivating moral and emotional virtue, or transforming ideas into bodily practices. Some of the most common examples include fasting, meditation, vegetarianism, and qigong or taichi. Rather than focus on these obvious examples, conference attendees will examine culturally driven bodily practices such as proper ways to walk, sit, and gesture—all of which are often endowed with rich cultural meaning, information about cultural learning, and knowledge about the cultivation of values and merit. Bodily cultivation can also be analyzed as a channel for learning, manifesting, developing, or shaping cultural concepts and ideals.

The Place of Ethics in the Teaching of Languages for Special Purposes

S’adressant à des étudiants spécialistes d’autres disciplines, les enseignants de langues du secteur LANSAD contribuent à la formation de futurs professionnels. Faire acquérir à leurs apprenants les clés de la langue-culture d’un milieu professionnel est l’une de leurs missions.

Cependant, des questions se posent, notamment : quelle place doit-elle occuper dans le contenu de l’enseignement des langues ? À quel moment faut-il l’introduire ? Avec quels outils et méthodes ? Des questions pratiques se posent : quel(s) moment(s) de la formation, quels outils et méthodes sont les plus favorables à la mise en place des apprentissages liés à l’éthique ? L’évaluation et la certification peuvent-elles prendre en compte la compétence éthique des apprenants – selon quels critères ? Quelles compétences doit posséder l’enseignant lui-même ?
