Résumé
Avec le récent essor de l’enseignement à distance, les tâches d’écriture collaborative (ÉC), dont la contribution au développement des compétences en écriture en langue seconde (L2) a été démontrée (Elabdali, 2021), se déroulent de plus en plus en ligne. Un tel format permet à l’enseignant de fournir une rétroaction corrective écrite synchrone (RCÉS) aux apprenants, qui collaborent ensuite en temps réel sur la résolution des erreurs. Peu d’études se sont toutefois intéressées aux perceptions des enseignants dans le cadre d’un cours de français L2 en ligne. Cette étude de cas explore ainsi les perceptions d’enseignants de français L2 (N = 3) quant à la mise en place, dans leur cours de français écrit de niveau avancé, de deux tâches d’ÉC en ligne (Google Docs), lors desquelles ils fournissaient de la RCÉS à leurs apprenants (N = 46), qui collaboraient par vidéoconférence en petits groupes (Zoom). Après la réalisation des tâches, les enseignants ont partagé leurs points de vue quant aux forces et aux limites d’une telle pratique pédagogique lors d’une entrevue de groupe semi-dirigée tenue en vidéoconférence. L’analyse de contenu de la transcription de l’entrevue indique que, bien que les enseignants aient des perceptions globalement positives de cette pratique et y voient un potentiel pour l’enseignement-apprentissage du français L2, certaines préoccupations concernant l’aspect pratique et la mise en œuvre des tâches d’ÉC en ligne avec de la RCÉS ont émergé. Les implications pédagogiques quant à la manière de fournir de la RCÉS pendant de telles tâches sont discutées.

Abstract
With the recent surge in remote teaching, collaborative writing (CW) tasks, which have been shown to help the development of second language (L2) writing skills (Elabdali, 2021), are increasingly taking place online. Such format allows the L2 teacher to provide synchronous written corrective feedback (SWCF) to learners, who can then collaboratively address errors in real time. However, few studies have focused on teachers’ perceptions in the context of an online L2 French course. This case study therefore explores L2 French teachers’ (N = 3) perceptions regarding the implementation, in their advanced written French course, of two online CW tasks (Google Docs), during which they provided SWCF to their students (N = 46), who collaborated in small groups via videoconferencing (Zoom). After the two tasks, teachers shared their views on the affordances and limitations of such pedagogical practice in a semi-structured focus group interview conducted online (Zoom). Content analysis of the interview transcriptions indicates that while teachers had overall positive perceptions of this practice and saw its potential for L2 French teaching and learning, some concerns regarding practicality and implementation of SWCF during online CW emerged. Best practices regarding the provision of SWCF during such CW tasks are discussed.
