Based on a three-year study, the authors describe how comprehensive teacher induction systems can both provide teacher support and promote learning more about how to teach. This book calls for re-thinking what teacher induction is about, whom it should serve, what the ‘curriculum’ of induction should be, and the policies, programs, and practices needed to deliver it.
This inclusive cross-cultural study rethinks the nexus between engineering education and context. In so doing the book offers a reflection on contextual boundaries with an overall boundary crossing ambition and juxtaposes important cases of critical participation within engineering education with sophisticated scholarly reflection on both opportunities and discontents. Whether and in what way engineering education is or ought to be contextualized or de-contextualized is an object of heated debate among engineering educators. The uniqueness of this study is that this debate is given comprehensive coverage – presenting both instrumentally inclined as well as radical positions on transforming...
Pourquoi consacrer d'abord un colloque et aujourd'hui un livre aux professions de l'éducation et de la formation ?D'abord parce que ces activités sont aujourd'hui en transformation rapide. Les différentes institutions de transmission de savoirs connaissent une forte déstabilisation, qui concerne dans tous les pays développés les trois secteurs ici évoqués : la formation initiale des jeunes, la formation continue des adultes et l'enseignement supérieur. Les métiers qui y oeuvrent se trouvent pris entre une exigence de rationalisation, une volonté de professionnalisation, un consensus sur leur caractère socialement prioritaire, et des incertitudes conflictuelles sur leurs objectifs...
In common with most industrialised countries, France has undertaken an ambitious programme of education reform over the last fifteen years. This book uses key extracts from contemporary writing to examine exactly how and why that process has happened, focusing on all stages of the education system. Sections cover the main characteristics of school reform in France, its aims and objectives, a discussion of the desirability of and politics surrounding the reform process, and explorations of classroom practice, the changing role of parents, standards in schools, and the curriculum. Because of its high quality, wide and up-to-date coverage of the area, this book will be a vital reference text for all those working in this field.
The Council of Europe's work on history teaching in secondary schools has three main thrusts: curriculum development, textbooks and teaching materials, and teacher training, which should take into account societal developments and the cultural needs of coming generations. This pilot study is the first comparative study on the structures of initial training for history teachers to be carried out in several European countries. Its aim is to provide information that will raise the level of professionalism not only of history teaching, but also of teacher training.--Publisher's description.
Les rééducateurs, comme d’autres professionnels de l’éducation psychologues, médecins scolaires, intervenants extérieurs, etc. signalent par les particularités de leur discours et de leurs actes face à l’échec scolaire et à sa prévention que le fonctionnement de l’école gagnerait à être amélioré. Tout en se situant ainsi « contre » l’école, la rééducation est condamnée à y rester « tout contre », dedans mais différente des autres pratiques, pour ne pas être dissoute dans l’institution scolaire. Elle joue un rôle ingrat mais nécessaire : entre psychologie et pédagogie, entre institution scolaire et champ médico-social. Les rééducateurs exercent une ...

La gestion des ressources humaines (RH) a connu de profonds changements depuis une trentaine d'années : informatisation des systèmes informatiques des ressources humaines (SIRH), individualisation des carrières, internationalisation des échanges, de nouvelles responsabilités sociales de l'entreprise, impératif de flexabilité et de mobilité professionnelle, etc. La gestion des personnes en milieu de travail devient ainsi plus délicate puisqu'elle requiert non seulement de concilier les intérêts de l'entreprise et ceux du personnel, mais aussi d'adapter les effectifs à l'activité, en tenant compte des contraintes juridiques, techniques et de la productivité. Pour cela, la fonctio...
