Résumé Dans ce texte, les auteures présentent deux approches des mathématiques : l’approche philosophique des mathématiques (APM) et la cognitively guided instruction (CGI). Des résultats de recherche montrent que l’utilisation de l’APM tend à augmenter l’anxiété des filles à l’égard des mathématiques (Lafortune). D’autres montrent que les filles ont tendance à avoir recours davantage à des algorithmes enseignés et les garçons, à des algorithmes inventés (Fennema). Les résultats de ces recherches sont discutés et des solutions sont proposées.

This paper describes a primary-school (ages 5-11) project implemented in Scotland, based on the United States research from Cognitively Guided Instruction (CGI), and as envisioned by Dr. Lio Moscardini. Three schools, two public and one private, participated in this two-year long initial study that focused on helping teachers to understand the developmental stages pupils naturally progress through in order to understand the mathematics for their class level as defined by the Scottish government. This project provides evidence that a rise in attainment can occur by focusing on teachers’ knowledge, pedagogy, and pedagogical content knowledge in relation to mathematics rather than by focusing on attainment itself. Additionally, this project addresses the teaching and learning of a diverse group of students, i.e. inclusion, low socio-economics.

The integration of two powerful instructional theories (Daily Oral Language and Cognitively Guided Instruction) into one classroom activity that is helping break the barriers teachers and students face when working with word problems. Teachers will gain informative techniques to integrate these strategies to include reading, writing, and mathematics in the classroom.

In this article, Michael Huberman explores the effect of sustained interactions with practitioners on educational researchers. He focuses his study on two specific cases: 1) an elementary-level mathematics project, known as the Cognitively Guided Instruction project at the University of Wisconsin–Madison, and 2) a set of intellectual biographies of math and science education researchers. Using a social-constructivist paradigm, he describes the conceptual and methodological shifts that some researchers undergo when they are confronted with the realities, constraints, and opportunities of practice. In addition to these shifts, Huberman also discusses how interacting with practitioners influences researchers' view of teaching and of how research should be used. He discusses how the "micro-worlds" of research and practice interact, and through their interactions determine the flow of knowledge. It is the interaction between micro-worlds, rather than the actors alone, that is the crucial unit of analysis in this study. Huberman concludes by suggesting that sustained interactivity between practitioners and researchers may be beneficial to both parties. In particular, sustained interactivity may allow researchers to refine, even recast, their conceptual frameworks, their methodologies, their teaching, and their modes of exchange with various audiences.
