| Résumé anglais |
In 1959 and 1960 the author and his team taught at a summer school workshop for native
American Indian undergraduate students. The community that was then created, a community which valued and aspired to education, seemed to him a posteriori to be an
extraordinary one, and one which moreover gave birth to a whole generation of leading
Indian politicians. Presenting his research on education in the Indian reserves which followed, the author considers at once the methods used and the contents studied. He shows
the difficulties encountered by an «inexperienced» researcher trained at the University of
Chicago in the fifties, brings to light important aspects of the social dynamics of educational systems, and finally formulates, through the schooling of the Oglala Sioux, some
perspectives from which student behaviour at school should be studied. Thus, by highlighting educational issues in an extreme situation, significant aspects concerning the configuration of schools can be revealed, which otherwise would remain unseen as they are an
integral part of social life. If in the past and in most societies, the greatest amount of
instruction is carried out in immersion teaching conditions, this work at the grass-roots
level on the Indian reserves can be shown as an example of instruction through experience. Source : Éditeur (via Cairn.info) |
