L’automne 2011, trois communautés d’apprentissage professionnelles (CAP) ont été mises sur pied avec, pour thématique, l’évaluation des apprentissages. Ces CAP visaient à consolider la compétence en évaluation des apprentissages chez les enseignants en exercice, à soutenir ces derniers dans l’ajustement de leurs pratiques en évaluation et à susciter une dynamique de coformation entre les enseignants participant aux CAP. Cette recherche, de type formation, adopte une approche mixte et s’appuie sur le modèle d’évaluation de la formation continue de Guskey (2000) pour déterminer l’impact des CAP sur le développement de la compétence en évaluation des apprentissages. Les résultats indiquent que tous les enseignants des trois CAP ont consolidé leurs compétences en évaluation de manière significative et qu’un gain plus important a été noté pour les enseignants du secondaire. Les apprentissages réalisés sont surtout de nature cognitive. Parmi les apprentissages classés sous la dimension affective, c’est le partage des pratiques qui retient l’attention des participants. De plus, le choix d’avoir opté pour des CAP constituées de participants venant de plusieurs commissions scolaires a certainement contribué à élargir leurs perspectives grâce à la richesse des expertises et des milieux convoqués.
Max 150 words. If possible, please submit your abstract in both English and French. When writing an assignment, most students start by searching for information online, which they integrate in their writing and conclude by producing a bibliography for the sources used. They use their informational, writing and referencing skills to do this as well as refer to their plagiarism knowledge to make sure their text is exempt from plagiarism. In this paper, we examined which skills and knowledge students feel the need to further develop in university to prevent plagiarism in their assignments. Professors were also questioned as to their perceptions of their students' skills development during their pre-university studies. Questionnaires were administered in six Quebec Universities to students (n = 1170) and professors (n = 279). Results show that students feel the need for more training while professors expect students to have already mastered the skills and knowledge to prevent plagiarism. Recommendations are made on how to implement better training for students through a program approach. Lors de la rédaction d'un devoir, la plupart des étudiants universitaires commencent par chercher des informations en ligne, qu'ils intègrent dans leur rédaction et terminent en produisant une bibliographie des sources utilisées. Ils utilisent leurs compétences informationnelles, rédactionnelles, et de référencement documentaire et se réfèrent à leurs connaissances en matière de plagiat pour s'assurer que leur texte en soit exempt. Dans cet article, nous avons examiné les compétences et les connaissances que les étudiants ressentent le besoin de développer davantage à l'université pour prévenir le plagiat dans leurs travaux. Les professeurs ont également été interrogés sur leur perception du développement des compétences de leurs étudiants durant leurs études pré-universitaires. Des questionnaires ont été administrés dans six universités québécoises à des étudiants (n = 1170) et à des professeurs (n = 279). Les résultats montrent que les étudiants ressentent le besoin d'une formation plus poussée alors que les professeurs s'attendent à ce que les étudiants maîtrisent déjà les compétences et les connaissances nécessaires pour prévenir le plagiat. Des recommandations sont formulées sur la façon de mettre en oeuvre une meilleure formation pour les étudiants par le biais d'une approche-programme.
The aim of this study is to assess the psychometric properties of the Pictorial Scale of Perceived Competence and Social Acceptance for Young Children (PSPCSA) (Harter & Pike, 1983) among young learning disabled pupils. The sample consisted of 105 French Canadian learning disabled pupils in Grades 1–3. All subjects completed a French translation of the PSPCSA, while 58 were retested 2–4 weeks later. The reliability analysis indicates results similar to those found in Harter and Pike's (1983) study. However, the factor analysis reveals three separate factors. These results are discussed in terms of domains of self‐concept that were assessed, procedures and subjects characteristics. The main conclusion reached is that the PSPCSA should be used with caution in assessing French speaking pupils with learning disabilities. More research is needed until the instrument as reached acceptable levels of technical adequacy. 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
The design and description of the psychometric properties of a Kindergarten Behavior Rating Scale used to predict later academic achievement were based on a survey of past literature on efficient predictors of school failure which indicated a need for a scale that identifies kindergarten pupils who are at risk for school failure during their elementary education. The scale, developed over a 3-yr. period, significantly predicted academic achievement in reading, writing, and mathematics, as indicated by correlations, .15 and .66 between scores on the scale and academic achievement in Grades 1 and 2. Use of judgment by kindergarten teachers to assess risks was also considered, as are other suggestions and limitations on the further use.
To investigate the relationships of the self-concept with classroom behaviors, the Pictorial Scale of Perceived Competence and Social Acceptance for Young Children and the Self-perception Profile for Learning Disabled Students were administered to 140 learning disabled and 246 nonlearning disabled pupils while teachers completed the Questionnaire on Approach/Avoidance Classroom Behavior toward schoolwork. Correlations showed a meaningful association between scores on the self-concept Behavioral Conduct subscale and rated classroom behavior for subjects of Grades 1 to 4. Also, while the relationship was meaningful for the high achievers, analysis showed few significant relationships for learning-disabled pupils.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between repeating Grade 1, self-concept scores, and classroom behavior. In Canada, a large number of pupils repeat grades. The literature on repeating a grade suggests that this practice has no benefit on academic achievement or social behavior and practically none on self-concept. Data from a 3-yr. longitudinal study indicate that Grade 1 repetition has no clear relation with self-concept scores and classroom behavior, even when remedial teaching provided during or after the repeated grade is taken into account. It appears classroom behavior problems are related to other factors which existed prior to grade repetition. Furthermore, self-concept tends to be related to achievement rather than grade repetition.
