THE IMPACT OF TRAINING AND PEDAGOGICAL COACHING OF NEW UNIVERSITY PROFESSORS ON THEIR ACTUAL WORK: AN INTERNATIONAL COMPARISON (CANADA-FRANCE)
This article presents some of the results of an international qualitative study conducted in Canada and in France entitled “Impacts of training and pedagogical coaching on the practices of new university professors and their students”. Considering that the actual work of a university professor has been subjected to numerous changes over the past few years, many universities have decided to develop training measures and offer pedagogical coaching in order to prepare new university professors to perform their duties. Though these measures have been in effect for several years, few studies have looked at their impacts. The objective of this article is to present the findings that seem to have had an impact on the lived experiences of teaching that occurred over the course of the study.
