Résumé
La résolution collaborative de problèmes est une compétence clé pour les futurs enseignants du primaire. En effet, ceux-ci seront appelés à résoudre quotidiennement des problèmes et à collaborer avec les autres membres de l’équipe-école ou avec leurs élèves. Cependant, la compétence de résolution collaborative de problèmes demeure très peu étudiée dans la littérature scientifique. Pour contribuer à la compréhension de cette compétence, nous l’analysons sous un nouvel angle, celui de l’agentivité transformatrice, et dans un contexte de robotique pédagogique. Nous mobilisons la théorie de l’activité comme cadre théorique et analysons une activité de robotique pédagogique impliquant une équipe de quatre futurs enseignants du primaire dans la résolution collaborative de problèmes. Les résultats de nos analyses soulignent la présence de cinq des six types d’expressions de l’agentivité transformatrice. Ils soulignent aussi que des situations conflictuelles sur les plans individuel et collectif ont fortement marqué la résolution collaborative de problèmes dans cette activité.

Abstract
Collaborative problem solving is a very important skill for pre-service teachers. Indeed, they will be called upon to solve problems daily basis and to collaborate with other members of the school team or with their students. However, the collaborative problem-solving skill remains very little documented in the research. To contribute to the understanding of this skill, we will analyze it from a new angle, that of transformative agency, and in a context of educational robotics. We mobilize activity theory as a theoretical framework and analyze a pedagogical robotics activity involving a team of four pre-service primary teachers in collaborative problem solving. The results of our analyses highlight the presence of five of the six types of transformative agency expressions. They also highlight that the collaborative problem solving in this educational robotics activity was strongly marked by conflictual situations at the individual and collective levels.
