description This research dissertation examines the online teaching experience of university French teachers in South Africa and Eswatini during the Covid-19 crisis. It aims to understand the emerging technological teaching practices to contribute to the body of knowledge in the field of foreign language teaching and learning in the technological era. A questionnaire was developed to interrogate the teachers' practices, objectives, and approaches regarding the use of technology for pedagogical purposes as well as the advantages and challenges they faced while teaching French online. From the analysis of the responses received to the questionnaire, this dissertation highlights the different technological tools and learning formats that are emerging in online learning. It also brings to the fore the pedagogical challenges of these emerging practices while considering the future of foreign language pedagogy in the technological era.
