LES PARENTS ET LA MICROINFORMATIQUE SCOLAIRE
Abstract
The authors conducted a survey of parents' opinions concerning computer use in Quebec schools. The analysis of 4399 completed questionnaires, from both French and English-speaking school committee members, reveals trends in parents' expectations, fears, and perceptions of their role in the use of computers in education. The authors compare the parents' point of view to the "official" point of view as expressed by education officials and opinion leaders. In conclusion, the authors suggest certain measures which may address parental concerns. RÉSUMÉ Les auteurs ont procédé à un sondage des opinions des parents au sujet de l'usage des ordinateurs dans les écoles québécoises. L'analyse de 4 399 questionnaires remplis par des membres de comités scolaires anglophones et francophones, fait apparaître des tendances au niveau des attentes, des craintes et des perceptions des parents quant à leur rôle dans l'utilisation des ordinateurs à l'école. Les auteurs comparent le point de vue des parents au point de vue "officiel" tel qu'exprimé par les porte-parole et les chefs de file des milieux enseignants. En conclusion, les auteurs proposent certaines mesures susceptibles de répondre aux préoccupations des parents.Downloads
