TitleOnline Opinions Site in French
Body
An FLTEACH user found a French language website where users can generate petitions: http://www.mesopinions.com .

She gives the following suggestions for how to use it in class:

One could develop wonderful lessons from this site, because it is so immediate. Students could look at the list to do a survey of concerns of the petitioners, i.e. environmental petitions, political petitions, media concerns, human rights violations, etc. Students could also click on the petitions to read specific ones the teacher assigns, and answer teacher-generated questions about the situation the petitioners are protesting. They could click on the comments link to see what others think of the petition topic. Really, there is a wealth of possibilities here. There seem to be items from Belgium, Québec, and Switzerland, so there's even a francophone element.
