La pratique plastique comme méthode d’éducation à l’image et outil de pédagogie critique
Résumé
The analysis of visual documents in class goes beyond the usual distribution of disciplines
at school, in a context where exploring the science and knowledge based on visual resources
has become more and more urgent. Our study will present an experiment with teacher
trainees, taking a Master’s degree in Education (MEEF) at the University of Orléans. The
idea is to show that artistic practice overcomes the controversies associated with popular
and dramatised visual material. It helps build critical positions, that will be essential in
young people’s future civic commitments. Based on art-works by journalist and artist Zehra
Doğan, this study sees art as a paradigm and educational method aimed at questioning
complex, interdisciplinary and controversial content while reflecting on the evolutions of
a changing society.
