Team presentation

This component continues the study of the conditions that enable scientific thought to remain dynamic and under construction, addressed since 1991 by Daniel Favre. The problem of understanding the complex nature of reality, particularly for biology which lies at the crossroads of many disciplines, reinforces the interest in studying the epistemological and didactic links that can exist when tackling interdisciplinary approaches such as health and environmental education. This study of links provides an original approach to the complex nature of the reality brought to light and/or constructed by scientific activity in its dual individual/collective register.

Acknowledging this complexity means studying the conditions of the knowledge construction/deconstruction cycle, and thus the role of social interactions with affective resonance that may or may not promote it. The study of the affective dimension of learning, in relation to the epistemic postures involved in stabilizing knowledge and destabilizing it, appears necessary and relevant when we observe learners' approaches, when we examine the elaboration of knowledge by the scientific community, and when we seek to train teachers capable of optimizing classroom functioning in the areas of learning and socialization.

Research in didactics, initially focused on the transmission of complex knowledge objects in biology, is developing by integrating the study of the impact of the affective dimension in the teaching and learning of biology.

The affective dimension thus becomes an object of research that can be applied to the didactics of biology but also, as we have been showing since 1994, to the study of the links that exist between learning and violence at school.

This component welcomes doctoral students from the "Didactics, Epistemology and History of Science" doctoral program, co-accredited by Lyon I and Montpellier II.
