L’APPRENTISSAGE PAR CONCEPTS EN PREMIÈRE SECONDAIRE DANS UN CADRE D’ARRIMAGE DE L’HISTOIRE ET DE L’ÉDUCATION À LA CITOYENNETÉ
Keywords:
concepts, concept-based learning, citizenship skills, history education, citizenship educationAbstract
Cet article s’intéresse aux perceptions que les élèves québécois de la première année du secondaire ont de leur cours histoire et éducation à la citoyenneté, de ses finalités quant à la formation des habiletés citoyennes, ainsi que de ses concepts. L’analyse qualitative des entrevues menées avec quarante élèves démontre que ces derniers font bien peu l’arrimage entre l’histoire et l’éducation à la citoyenneté et que l’apprentissage des concepts est influencé par le contexte dans lequel il a été étudié.
