Travail conjoint entre un médiateur scientifique, un professeur des écoles et ses élèves

Abstract

This paper questions the joint work of a scientific instructor, a teacher and her grade four students, when they visit a science festival out of school. The theoretical frame draws on Joint Action Theory of Didactics and the study aims to describe the connections between the actions of the different subjects. In this paper we focus on methodological tools, which aim is to make visible didactic transactions. We introduce for this purpose “synoptic representations” and expose how they can account for the time and space organisation of the co-intervention.
