Understanding the interpretative activity of two schoolteachers: Between comparative analysis and didactic contextualization
This research reports on the interpretative activity of two schoolteachers during physical education and mathematics sessions. It is part of the research field concerned with the processes of didactic contextualization and the comparatist approach. The processed data was collected by self-confrontation interviews. The results allow to model the interpretative filters mobilized according to three axes (practical epistemology, types of inferences and structuring of the interpretative activity). Our study allows to confront the specificities or genericities, fruits of disciplinary didactics, with the effects of didactic contextualization. The use of contextualization seems to act as a filter thus constituting a professional genre. On the other hand, the contents and the determinants of the interpretation are more specified according to the concerned disciplines.
