Océane Cochon Drouet; Nicolas Margas; Valérian Cece; Vanessa Lentillon-Kaestner – European Physical Education Review, 2024
Jigsaw is an attractive cooperative method for implementing physical education (PE). However, Jigsaw is a demanding method for students and teachers and requires time. Thus, the time required for the implementation of Jigsaw is important with respect to its potential effects on students. Previous findings regarding the effects of Jigsaw on…

Perrin, Eliane – Environmental Education Research, 2023
As part of a renewed focus on current environmental concerns, the new geography programs set out for middle schools introduced new subjects on global change in 2015, subsequently replaced by a focus on climate change in 2020. The case study approach to teaching, imposed by official directives, makes it difficult for middle school students to…

Although understandings of scientific inquiry (as opposed to conducting inquiry) are included in science education reform documents around the world, little is known about what students have learned about inquiry during their elementary school years. This is partially due to the lack of any assessment instrument to measure understandings about…

Cisel, Matthieu; Barbier, Charlotte – International Journal of Science Education, 2021
Student-Question-Based Inquiry (SQBI) represents a form of inquiry where pupils design their research questions, hypotheses, and protocols. The "Savanturiers" program aims at helping teachers overcome their potential apprehension of SQBI by matching hundreds of elementary and middle school teachers with mentors. These mentors are usually…

Vors, Olivier; Gal-Petitfaux, Nathalie; Potdevin, François – European Physical Education Review, 2015
Since 2010, French middle schools with a high enrolment of difficult students have benefited from a compensatory policy called "Écoles Collèges et Lycées pour l'Ambition, l'Innovation et la Réussite" (ECLAIR) (Primary and Secondary Schools for Ambition, Innovation and Success). These difficult students frequently misbehave, disengage…

This paper examines the respective contribution of two theoretical approaches to teaching and learning: the classroom ecology (CE) framework from Anglo-American research and the joint action in didactics (JAD) framework, which is part of French "didactique" research. This theoretical comparison is grounded in data from a case study in a…

Richard, Jacques F.; Schneider, Barry H.; Mallet, Pascal – School Psychology International, 2012
The whole-school approach to bullying prevention is predicated on the assumption that bullying is a systemic problem, and, by implication, that intervention must be directed at the entire school context rather than just at individual bullies and victims. Unfortunately, recent meta-analyses that have looked at various bullying programs from many…
