Abstract

A programme of professional training for prospective elementary school teachers was proposed and set up in September 1972, to run for one year. The programme was structured so that the learning activities of students, including continuous planning and evaluation, were “metaphors” of the experiences they wished to engender as professional teachers. The metaphorical principle is elaborated.

Résumé

En septembre 1972, un programme de formation professionnelle pour les futurs professeurs de niveau élémentaire fut instauré pour un an. D'après ce programme, les activités d'apprentissage des étudiants, y compris la planification et l'évaluation continues, furent envisagées comme “métaphores” des expériences qu'ils désiraient effectuer en tant que professeurs. Cet article fait l'exposé de ce procédé métaphorique.
