This book offers an overview of the research carried out in didactics on the teaching and learning of science at university from the perspective of university pedagogy. The first part sheds light on the links between university pedagogy and didactics, by studying the nature and place of disciplinary pedagogical knowledge at university and the training of academics through the prism of professionalization. The second part questions the teaching practices of academics from a disciplinary approach, from the point of view of the impact of the research discipline on the declared practices, or that of the links between the resources mobilized in research and teaching activities. The third part proposes a sociological look at these practices, in terms of the analysis of the discourses of institutional actors or of practices in situ. The book concludes with a synthesis that develops the main issues, challenges and difficulties that remain at the end of this book.
The book weaves the story of the complex links between education and its territories. The aim here is to examine the education couple - understood in the broadest sense: school, college, high school, universities - and territory, according to three main axes: the history and the characterization of the different ties maintained And which the school and its territory always maintain; That of the categorization and characterization of the territories in which the school is situated, of the educational policies - both explicit and grassroots - connected with it and their effects on the school; That of recent pedagogical, didactic and organizational innovations. The book is based on French specialists in territorial education issues.
This book presents the core concepts of geographical education as a means of understanding global issues from a spatial perspective.

Citoyenneté, identité, altérité étudie les différentes façons dont ces trois principes sont envisagés et pris en compte dans le cadre scolaire, notamment l’histoire, la géographie et les sciences sociales. Considérées ensemble, la citoyenneté, l’identité et l’altérité font émerger des questions sensibles au sein de la société contemporaine où l’école est généralement envisagée comme la pierre angulaire de leur construction. Ainsi, les modèles de citoyenneté sont divers, entre adhésion à la nation, à des principes démocratiques et républicains, à la question européenne, ou encore à des principes d’ouverture interculturels et d’engagement dans la société. La première partie traite de la citoyenneté d’adhésion, implicitement présente dans de nombreux curricula, en regroupant les analyses de plusieurs programmes et manuels scolaires provenant d’organisations politiques diverses. La seconde examine des formes encore émergentes de citoyenneté inclusive, où chacun se trouve alors en situation de devenir citoyen, quelle que soit l’échelle de cette citoyenneté.

Les pratiques d’enseignement à l’université sont depuis les années 2000 la cible d’intérêts vifs et variés, notamment en matière d’innovation pédagogique soutenue, entre autres, par la promotion du numérique. Cet ouvrage propose un panorama des recherches menées en didactique sur l’enseignement et l’apprentissage des sciences à l’université dans la perspective de la pédagogie universitaire. Les recherches en pédagogie universitaire se présente en trois parties. La première éclaire les liens entre pédagogie universitaire et didactique, par l’étude de la place des savoirs pédagogiques disciplinaires à l’université et de la formation des enseignants-chercheurs au prisme de la professionnalisation. La deuxième partie questionne les pratiques d’enseignement des enseignants-chercheurs avec une approche disciplinaire. La troisième partie propose un regard sociologique sur ces pratiques, par l’analyse de discours des acteurs institutionnels ou de pratiques in situ. L’ouvrage se conclut par une synthèse qui développe les principaux enjeux, défis et difficultés qui subsistent à l’issue de cet ouvrage.
