"Clear, easy principles to spot what's nonsense and what's reliable. Each year, teachers, administrators, and parents face a barrage of new education software, games, workbooks, and professional development programs purporting to be "based on the latest research." While some of these products are rooted in solid science, the research behind many others is grossly exaggerated. This new book, written by a top thought leader, helps everyday teachers, administrators, and family members--who don't have years of statistics courses under their belts--separate the wheat from the chaff and determine which new educational approaches are scientifically supported and worth adopting. Author's first book, Why Don't Students Like School?, catapulted him to superstar status in the field of education Willingham's work has been hailed as "brilliant analysis" by The Wall Street Journal and "a triumph" by The Washington Post Author blogs for The Washington Post and Britannica.com, and writes a column for American Educator. In this insightful book, thought leader and bestselling author Dan Willingham offers an easy, reliable way to discern which programs are scientifically supported and which are the equivalent of 'educational snake oil'"--

We all know that small classes are better than large classes; that children are best taught in groups according to their ability; that some schools are much better than others and that we should teach children according to their individual learning styles ... or do we? This book asks awkward questions about these and many other sacred cows of education. Each chapter tackles a persistent myth in education, confronting it with research evidence and teasing out any kernel of truth which may underlie the myth. Leading authors from the world of education each bring analysis and expertise to bear on their chosen subject, presenting their argument in an accessible manner based on sound scholarship. Some of the conclusions drawn in Bad Education are likely to be real eye-openers for many teachers and parents, who will find some of their basic assumptions about education called into question. It is also essential reading for anyone involved in educational policy making or management.

L’idée d’une extension de l’éducation tout au long de la vie a donné une littérature abondante depuis les années soixante, l’analyse porte ici sur un ensemble de textes publiés par l’Unesco entre 1970 et 1976. L’ouvrage aborde tour à tour la question des justifications de l’idée d’éducation permanente, celle de sa spécification par rapport à d’autres notions caractéristiques du champ de l’éducation des adultes, celle de ses implications au sein d’une « société éducative », les objectifs et les programmes de l’éducation initiale, l’organisation des relations entre les différentes institutions d’enseignement et de formation.

Cet ouvrage fait le point sur les diverses dimensions implicites ou impensées qui participent de toute recherche à l'insu même des chercheurs. Issu d'un séminaire international, plus précisément consacré aux recherches en didactiques, autour de trois thèmes : - questionner les implicites dans les choix de constitution des corpus ; - questionner les implicites liés aux cadres théoriques ; - questionner les implicites liés aux choix méthodologiques et épistémologiques ; complétés par trois textes de synthèse. Il intéressera, en raison de l'importance des problèmes qu'il soulève, aussi bien les chercheurs en sciences humaines que les formateurs et les étudiants qui sont tenus d'aborder les questions de méthode au sein de leur cursus. Il s’inscrit dans la continuité de la réflexion entamée en 2005 autour des méthodes de recherche en didactiques et fait ainsi suite aux deux premiers livres : Les méthodes de recherche en didactiques vol. 1 et Les méthodes de recherche en didactiques : questions de temporalité vol. 2, parus en 2006 et 2007 aux Presses Universitaires du Septentrion.
