Linguistics and Discourse Analysis

This study aims to make a survey of the competencies of the didac-tics of the French foreign language, privileged by the trainee teachers when choosing the object of research-action subject during the internship year. The study analyzes the contents of the internship reports produced and defended by the teachers while in their inicial training, in the Faculty of Letters of the University of Porto under the master’s degree in teaching with a French lan-guage componente in Middle School and High School. At the analysis, we ob-serve which teaching strategies do the trainees most resort to, at the service of which linguistic activities certain strategies appear more often, and which resources and teaching materials are most used. We indentify the reports that make direct reference to concepts of the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR), the difficulties and problems detected by the trainees that support the choice of the research theme, and the justification of the imple-mented strategy. We came across the motivation factor in most of the reports and noticed the absence of certain strategies and resources that could be at the service of motivation.
