If someone had told us one day we’d be invited to Quai d’Orsay… 😲
A few days ago, TokiChat (JB and Cloé) had the honor of being invited to the Ministry for Europe and Foreign Affairs for the closing evening of Francophonie Week.
More than a simple invitation, this presence follows our selection by the Institut français as part of a call for expressions of interest to identify the best EdTech solutions for teaching French around the world.
What we take away from this evening:
🏛️ Meetings and thanks: we were able to speak with the Institut français team and thank them in person for their trust. It was also an opportunity to discuss with other major players in the teaching of French as a Foreign Language (FLE), such as Université Sorbonne Nouvelle.
🎓 Education before technology: as we shared during our discussions, our strength is to be teachers first and foremost, rather than developers. Behind the code, there is a reality on the ground and a desire to awaken students’ critical thinking.
💻 A sovereignty issue: offering a tool hosted in France and respectful of pedagogical freedom is an argument that resonates strongly.
🌍 New international perspectives: following this call for projects, we should soon collaborate with Alianza Francesa de Costa Rica ! Further proof that offering a tool hosted in France and respectful of pedagogical freedom is an argument that resonates strongly, far beyond our borders.
Being selected among the innovative players in educational digital technology motivates us more than ever to continue the development of TokiChat for and with teachers.
