De l’utilité de la recherche collaborative pour produire des ressources de formation robustes

Abstract

What are the essential characteristics of collaborative research that contribute to the production of quality training resources? To answer this question by situating it in the field of French language didactics, this article takes as a corpus the process of didactic engineering initiated following the LireÉcrireCP research to produce tools on the teaching of writing at the beginning of elementary school. From this corpus, we highlight the fact that the quality of such resources is based on a joint requirement of research and field work, which gives them robustness. In a dialogue with this analysis of the didactic engineering process and by situating our subject at the heart of the praxeological concerns of didactics as a discipline producing knowledge and resources for action, we highlight different dimensions of so-called collaborative research by explaining how they enable the construction of the targeted robustness.
