Abstract

Our paper examines the contribution of the self-confrontation interview (SC) as a self-assessment tool for students in oral presentation situations, including the emotional dimension of oral presentation, and as a formative assessment tool for teachers. To answer this question, we conducted an individual SC interview (simple SC) with eight students, based on the video of their class presentation. The content analysis applied to their words showed that when students revisit and talk about the emotions they felt during their presentation, they make links with their strategies for preparation and success, the facilitators and obstacles they encountered, and what they plan to put in place next time. This is invaluable information for teachers wishing to support their students appropriately.
