Özet

The primary objective of the research is to showcase, by employing a didacticization instance involving an authentic video document, the considerable significance, and the valuable contributions of the theory of instrumental genesis in comprehending and analyzing this intricate process. This study accurately delineates the stages involved in didacticization, emphasizing that it results from a dual-faceted process of instrumentalization and instrumentation. Within the realm of instrumentalization, the didactician strategically appropriates the video document for didactic purposes by activating their cognitive schemas. This transformative act turns the video into an instrument – a didactic sequence laden with the teaching strategies envisioned by the designer. Various factors stimulate the activation of these schemas within the designer's strategic repertoire, including age, didactic representations, experiential background, and personal history. The intricate interplay of these elements shapes the didacticization process, highlighting the dynamic nature of instructional design. Simultaneously, the research delves into the instrumentation process, which is contingent upon the inherent nature and content of the video document, as well as the educational level and sociocultural characteristics of the learners. This dual-process framework sheds light on the multifaceted dimensions of didacticization, encompassing both the cognitive processes of the didactician and the contextual elements influencing the instructional material. By elucidating these two interconnected processes, the research aims to raise awareness among didacticians, fostering introspection and self-evaluation for designers of didactic sequences utilizing video support. In an era marked by the diversification and modernization of methods for creating and disseminating video materials, the study posits that its analytical approach to the process of instrumental genesis remains pertinent and applicable, even in the context of contemporary distribution formats such as videos generated by artificial intelligence. Moreover, the research contends that within the domain of FFL (French as a Foreign Language) didactics, this theoretical framework can be harnessed to scrutinize the learner's assimilation process of the didactic sequence and the ensuing knowledge acquisition after the completion of the instructional activity. In essence, the research underscores the enduring relevance and adaptability of the theory of instrumental genesis in the evolving landscape of instructional design and technology.
