Les chercheurs canadiens qui ont participe a cet ouvrage collectif
proposent une reponse a leurs preoccupations collectives qui
portent essentiellement sur l'impact de la politique globale sur la
formation des enseignants, et ce, afin d'etablir un dialogue franc
et approfondi sur la formation des enseignants telle que pratiquee
a notre epoque. Durant les deux premieres decennies du nouveau
millenaire, le monde occidental a connu une augmentation sans
precedent des analyses, des evaluations et des propositions les
plus diverses portant sur la politique educative (du jardin
d'enfant a la fin du secondaire). En consequence, la formation des
enseignants a ete tres fortement impactee dans un contexte global
ou les gouvernements considerent la reforme et la gestion de la
formation des enseignants comme une composante clef de la
restructuration de l'enseignement, et ce, afin que l'enseignement
dispense soit plus competitif sur le plan economique. Force est de
constater que cette approche s'est traduite par un niveau de
standardisation indesirable et totalement injustifie. Pour garantir
l'avenir de la formation des enseignants et donc de l'education
publique, il est aujourd'hui fondamental d'imaginer des
alternatives a l'homogeneisation de l'experience educative, qui
resulte des politiques adoptees dans le cadre de la mondialisation.
Dans cette perspective, il est necessaire de fournir aux
enseignants et aux educateurs un vocabulaire et une terminologie
specifiques qui leur permettent de definir et d'articuler leurs
objectifs educatifs, au-dela de la notion reductrice de capital,
tout en privilegiant les differents types d'experience educative
qui preparent les jeunes a mener des vies satisfaisantes et utiles.
En s'inspirant des enseignements tires du contexte canadien, les
auteurs de cet ouvrage ont identifie et evalue l'importance d'une
education professionnelle initiale et qui continue de favorise
l'apprentissage et la liberte intellectuelle des enseignants ;
promeut une appreciation critique et informee des specificites
civiques et des circonstances historiques ; et favorise un
engagement ethique (et donc pedagogique) qui prend en compte les
idees et les antecedents des enseignants et de leurs eleves et les
considerent comme des themes cruciaux de la formation globale des
enseignants. Ce livre est publie en anglais - In this collection,
Canadian scholars articulate a response to their collective
concerns about the impact of global policy on teacher education,
provoking a far-reaching dialogue about teacher education in and
for our times. The first two decades of the new millennium have
witnessed unprecedented appraisal, analysis, and educational policy
formulations related to teaching (K-12) across the Western world.
In turn, teacher education has been greatly impacted, as
governments around the world see the reform and management of
teacher education as a key component in restructuring education
toward greater economic competitiveness. The result has been an
unwarranted and undesirable level of standardization. It is vital
to the future of teacher education, and concomitantly public
education, that we imagine alternatives to the homogenization of
the educational experience that globalizing policies install. What
is needed are vocabularies that enable educators and teacher
educators to discern and articulate educational purposes beyond
capital and which focus on the kinds of educational experiences
that can help prepare the young to lead good and worthwhile lives.
Using lessons learned from the Canadian context, the authors
identify and investigate the importance of initial and continuing
professional education that fosters teachers' intellectual freedom
and study; advances an informed and critical appreciation of civic
particularity and historical circumstance; and cultivates ethical
(i.e., pedagogical) engagement with ideas and histories-teachers'
own and their students-as crucial themes of teacher education
globally. This book is published in English
