Every year, the Institut International de Lancy takes part in the rhetoric competition organised by the French schools in Central and Eastern Europe (AEFE). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the second year in a row, the Institut International de Lancy welcomed 8 schools from different European countries to the grand final.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A total of 50 students gave their speeches in the Institut’s auditorium, before a jury made up of pedagogues, professionals and, for the first time, students or former students. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The speeches, which lasted 3, 4 and 6 minutes respectively for the 7èmes, 4èmes and Secondes, were judged according to three criteria:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Speech delivery (quality, articulation, expression)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Quality of the relationship established with the audience (emotion provoked, interaction with the audience, etc.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. Quality of the content and expression of the speech (vocabulary, structure, arguments, quotes, etc.). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
The topics chosen by the students were particularly varied, ranging from artificial intelligence to happiness, bereavement and even more surprising subjects such as squirrels and sleep. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
At the end of this high-quality final, three IIL students stood out: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Eloi Martin-Ionesco – 1st prize in the Secondes category <\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Cassandre Langel – 2nd prize in the 7èmes category <\/p>\n\n\n\n
* Thea Sartorius – 3rd prize, in the 7èmes category <\/p>\n\n\n\n
These results are the fruit of the efforts of all our students, their teachers and the whole team involved. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well done to them all! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
