Resumo(s)

The digital age and Generation Z are key features within the current panorama of teaching-learning practices in higher education and drive innovative student-centred strategies, oriented towards the reality of the labour market. The article describes an experience of pedagogical activation carried out through project-based learning using digital tools, with undergraduate Media Studies students of the School of Education in Viseu (Portugal), towards the acquisition of skills in French and English, during the academic year 2021-2022. The objective was to renew teaching practices, so as to foster greater student motivation on the part of forthcoming media professionals, by enhancing their competences and confidence with concern to spoken and written interaction within the context of foreign languages for specific purposes. The dynamics of learning combined with authentic contexts and digital tools, encourages teachers to rethink their methodology and objectives, in order to be more innovative. One accounts for the chosen strategy and the various steps followed, evaluates the path of both students and teachers, analyses the benefits, the drawbacks and the impact in terms of acquired skills and concludes with reflections for forthcoming work projects.
