Abstract: One of the difficulties of improving (foreign language) oral participation in the classroom context of an IUT is finding a suitable and efficient means of motivation. Experience indicates that one solution to this problem is the use of case studies which are tailored to adopt the core subject as the main theme. This may be done by the teacher with the help of authentic documents or, alternatively, by teacher-developed material based on reality. The objective is to place the students in a simulated professional situation in which they will find a correlation between the foreign language and the core subject(s) studied, thus providing an additional source of motivation for oral participation.
