Abstract
The concept of mediation in language teaching and learning, which has been functioning for more than 20 years in glottodidactic discourse, was only clarified in 2018 with the publication of the Companion volume to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, which has not yet been translated into Polish. This article is devoted to the ‘mediating communication’, which is part of the mediation activities defined in the companion volume to the CEFR. The first part of the article is devoted to theoretical considerations on the mediation and mediating communication in foreign language teaching, while the second part presents examples of specific exercises aimed at improving the competences in the mediating communication, which were identified as a result of the analysis of eighteen textbooks for French language teaching for secondary schools.
