Inclusive Teaching Practices In A French For Professional Purposes Course At The U.S. Air Force Academy, Florina Matu

Global Advances in Business Communication

This essay aims to explore inclusive teaching practices to be implemented in an advanced course on French for Professional Purposes at the U.S. Air Force Academy. It will equally illustrate how cadets explore economic, legal, political, and military aspects of the professional world in French-speaking countries, which enhance not only their personal future careers’ interests, but also contribute to the success of the Air Force’s military strategic interest in Francophone Africa. Cadets become acquainted with specialized vocabulary necessary in professional settings, as well as engage with questions relating to cultural differences and business ethics across different Francophone countries and regions.
