Steve Bissonnette C’est quand même assez fou le retournement de veste auquel on assiste chez les IPA/IPR en France. Après 20 ans de constructivisme, de “pédagogie de la découverte”… On aura vu des collègues se faire détruire en inspection parce qu’ils faisaient précisément de l’explicite…

Steve Bissonnette Et maintenant, ces mêmes inspecteurs se félicitent de cela, alors qu’ils étaient les premiers à crier “il faut absolument pédagogiser, didactiser” à outrance. Le professeur doit juste s’effacer, accompagner, l’élève est l’acteur principal de son apprentissage. Quel gâchis !

Using concrete examples with explicit instruction isn’t optional. It’s a must. They help students connect abstract ideas to something tangible. Cognitive science shows this reduces cognitive load, strengthens memory, and makes it easier to apply knowledge in new situations. 🧵1/6
