QUÉBEC TEACHERS: SUBMERGED IN A SEA OF REFORM
Abstract
ABSTRACT. Following a decade of top-down reform in which teachers were identified as the problem, rather than the solution, the current generation of Québec teachers has reacted with predictable skepticism and mistrust to the current wave of reforms. The success of government initiatives to revamp the curriculum and decentralize significant authority to schools hinges upon building a new working relationship with teacher organizations. RÉSUMÉ. Après une dizaine d'années de réforme descendante où les enseignants étaient présentés comme le problème plutôt que comme la solution, la génération actuelle de enseignants du Québec a réagi avec une dose prévisible de scepticisme et de méfiance à l'égard de la nouvelle vague de réformes. Lè succès des initiatives gouvernementales visant à remanier le cursus et à déléguer d'importants pouvoirs aux écoles dépend de l'établissement d'une nouvelle relation de travail avec les associations d'enseignants.Downloads
