Learning is essential. School, college, high school, university, vocational training, work... are all opportunities to develop the potential of each individual, from fundamental disciplinary knowledge (reading, spelling, mathematics...) to human values (collaboration, self-confidence, listening to and respecting opinions...) Yet today, the situation of education in France is worrying.
Why is a mobilization around education so urgent, and how can the Collège de France and its professors contribute to it ? What does research tell us about the difficulties facing students, and what are the possible areas for improvement ? What can be done now to optimize learning at all levels of schooling ?
These are just some of the questions explored at the evening launch of the " Agir pour l'éducation " initiative, which brings together professors from the Collège de France to take stock of the state of education in France, and put all dimensions of scientific knowledge to work for schools and our common future.
The " Agir pour l'éducation " initiative is supported by the Fondation du Collège de France and its patrons.
