As part of our European Embracing Controversy experimentation, the Foundation proposed to our long-term partner in France, La Ligue de l’Enseignement, the major actor in the field of civic education, to adapt and test existing pedagogical tools in the context of the French educational system.
Three French schools volunteered to participate to the project by developing and carrying out a distinct educational experiment. Teachers and supporting educational staff, accompanied by researchers working on teaching controversies, met regularly during the year to discuss their experiences and reflect collectively on the implemented pedagogical formats and methods.
As a result, a dedicated digital platform was created with the aim of encouraging other teachers and educators to work with controversial issues in the classroom, offer them insights, and share relevant methodologies, tools and documentation.
Launched at the Salon de l’Education in November 2018 in Paris, the platform also presents in detail as case studies the experiences conducted, and collects important literature and resources on other interesting practices.
