Literaturvermittlung als Herausforderung für die empirische Unterrichtsforschung: Beobachtungen zu Ganzheitlichkeit im handlungsorientierten Französischunterricht.

This article analyses a video sequence of a French lesson on Le Clézio’s short story Le jeu d’Anne. The author’s observations aim at an understanding of bodily action in the students’ work with freeze frames as an action-oriented method to text work. The analysis focuses on the concept of wholeness and its discussion in pedagogical and anthropological contexts. Based on recent sociolinguistic approaches to multimodality and symbolic competence, the outlook uses the example of the video sequence to sketch out possible teaching decisions.
