Developing genre-specific teaching materials for the anamnèse in French for health sciencesMercado, Ariel Sebastián (Avtor) French for medicineFrench for healthcareanamnèsecase historyThe anamnèse, or case history, is a foundational written genre in healthcare, produced routinely by professionals during clinical encounters. Despite its importance, there is a notable lack of pedagogical resources tailored to support non-French-speaking students in mastering this genre within French for Specific Purposes (FSP) contexts. This gap presents a challenge for instructors, who often must create custom materials in collaboration with healthcare practitioners. Building on a previous needs-based study of course content, this teaching report documents the development of targeted instructional materials for the anamnèse genre within a French for Health Sciences course at an English-language university in Montreal, Canada. The development process began with a review of relevant literature and textbooks in both French and English for the health sciences. Following this, and after meeting with healthcare faculty members, in the course of which students’ writing challenges during medical placements were idenified, the teaching materials were created. The findings led to the formulation of a proposed structure for the anamnèse, grounded in both practitioner input and existing literature on case histories in English and French. Sample teaching activities are presented to demonstrate how the materials address learners’ specific needs. This report contributes to the advancement of genre-based pedagogy in FSP and emphasizes the value of interdisciplinary collaboration in developing effective, context-sensitive teaching tools.20252026-02-06 14:45:02Članek v reviji179189ISSN pri članku: 1854-2042DOI: 10.4312/SM.20.2.42-58COBISS_ID: 271421955sl
