Espaces numériques de travail (ENT) et « école étendue » Vers un nouvel espace-temps scolaire?

Abstract

Generalization of Virtual Learning Environments (VLE) to all secondary schools is set as a goal having to be achieved by the National Ministry of Education in France. In fact, the deployment of VLE is very gradual. In this paper we consider VLE as technicalpedagogical devices (Peraya, 1999) likely to change school organization, particularly in its relation to time and to space. We hypothesize that the concept of distance must be identified as an important factor in the development of uses and be explicitly taken into account to rethink the school concept. ©Cned/Lavoisier 2010.
