Dans le but d’impliquer l’apprenant en qualité de sujet actif, «Francofolie» amène à l’acquisition de nouvelles structures grammaticales et communicatives à travers l’observation, la découverte et la déduction. Cette méthodologie favorise une progression soutenue et efficace, puisqu’elle reprend toujours les connaissances et les compétences déjà acquises.

Enfin, les nombreux dessins humoristiques et les photos sont autant de stimulus auxquels l’apprenant est appelé à répondre activement. La langue employée, authentique et quotidienne, comprend aussi le langage des jeunes, avec ses modes.
