Abstract
The education of teachers in Canada typically consists of a sequence of non-integrated and partially alternating phases: pre-service university-based course work, pre-service school-based practica, job-imbedded induction, professional development sessions. This article proposes an integrative approach to the education of teachers that links these different phases: Collaborative Professional Development Centres. The article draws on teacher education scholarship and research to articulate a number of assumptions about learning to teach and the purpose of teacher education, and then argues (a) that the traditional non-integrated approach to the education of teachers is incompatible with these assumptions, and (b) that these assumptions provide an excellent framework for the idea of Collaborative Professional Development Centres.
Résumé
La formation des enseignants au Canada se résume typiquement en une séquence de phases non intégrées et plus ou moins alternées : des travaux universitaires précédant l’expérience en classe, des stages en classe visant à former les futurs maîtres, l’intégration en milieu de travail et des sessions de développement professionnel. Dans ce texte, l’auteur propose de former les enseignants par le biais d’une approche intégrée, reliant les différentes phases, au sein de centres coopératifs de développement professionnel. Se basant sur le savoir académique et la recherche en formation des enseignants, l’auteur émet une série d’hypothèses en ce qui a trait à « apprendre à enseigner » et le but de la formation des futurs maîtres. Ensuite, il soutient que (a) l’approche traditionnelle non intégrée utilisée pour former les enseignants est incompatible avec ces hypothèses et que (b) ces hypothèses forment un excellent cadre, une base pour la création de centres coopératifs de développement professionnel.
