Global Simulations in Business French Teaching and Learning

Originally designed for the teaching of French as a Foreign Language (FFL), global simulations have been rapidly adopted by teachers of French as a Second Language (FSL), French as a Mother Tongue (FMT) and French for Specific Purposes (FSP). This approach can be successfully used with learners of all age groups, from the beginner to the advanced level. In this paper we will present several thematic places and the way in which the global simulations approach can be used in teaching Master's students from the Faculty of Economics and Business Administration within “Alexandru Ioan Cuza” University of Iasi.
