formation d’enseignants en langues étrangères, groupe d’étude, développement professionnel, connaissances, habiletés, attitudesRésumé
Dans cet article, l’on présente les résultats d’une recherche qualitative concernant le développement de connaissances, d’habiletés et d’attitudes chez un groupe de formateurs d’enseignants et de futurs enseignants en langues étrangères en analysant leur participation dans un groupe d’étude. Les résultats montrent que les enseignants développent des connaissances dans le domaine qu’ils enseignent, des habiletés investigatrices, une pensée critique, un travail collaboratif et des attitudes telles que l’initiative, l’engagement et une prise de risque. On conclut que les groupes d’étude peuvent être une stratégie effi cace pour le développement professionnel des enseignants.
