Resumen

La creciente popularidad de los cursos en metodología Aprendizaje Integrado de Contenidos y Lenguas Extranjeras (AICLE) ha llamado mucho la atención de los pedagogos del idioma chino. Muchos estudiosos han examinado sus funciones relativas a facilitar el desarrollo del contenido y el lenguaje. Sin embargo, como aspecto fundamental del marco de enseñanza de las 4Cs (comunicación, contenido, cognición y cultura) de AICLE, la competencia comunicativa intercultural (CCI) ha sido poco analizada. Además, la mayoría de los estudios en los cursos de AICLE han sido realizados en contextos de la lengua inglesa, con poca atención prestada a los programas de AICLE impartidos en idiomas distintos del inglés. Basándose en la teoría sociocultural, el presente estudio tiene como objetivo investigar cómo los estudiantes chinos desarrollan la CCI a través del andamiaje de los docentes en los cursos acordes con la metodología AICLE impartidos en francés, y sus puntos de vista sobre la facilitación de la CCI en dichos cursos. Este estudio recopiló los datos a partir de una observación de seis semanas en un aula con veinte estudiantes universitarios de la Filología Francesa, y de las entrevistas con siete de ellos. Los resultados revelaron que el andamiaje de los docentes, por ejemplo, el idioma académico explicativo, basándose en el uso de conocimientos previos y el andamiaje lingüístico, ayudaron a desarrollar la CCI de los participantes. Esta investigación aborda el vacío de la comprensión de cómo el andamiaje de los docentes puede facilitar el desarrollo de la CCI de los alumnos en un curso en metodología AICLE impartido en la lengua francesa, proporcionando orientación pedagógica para los docentes de AICLE sobre cómo promover la CCI.
