RepèresÉpisode 16 - F2D : formation digitale durableIl y a 20 ans nous disions : « Le numérique va traverser toutes les activités, dont celui de la formation ». Aujourd’hui, c’est au tour de la « durabilité » de traverser le numérique et par voie de conséquence, la formation. Après 2 décennies d’innovations pédagogiques où les usages numériques et les matériels ont été mis en avant, nous abordons une nouvelle ère, celle de la formation digitale durable.
2023-04-2809 minRepèresÉpisode 15 - L’Intelligence artificielle et la formationL’épisode décrit comment l’IA sait traiter efficacement des données multiples et variées (dont les traces laissées dans les espaces numériques d’apprentissage), de façon à proposer aux apprenants des parcours et des contenus individualisés, répondant à leurs besoins, s’adaptant aux résultats obtenus, mais aussi à leur style d’apprentissage.
Nous évoquerons ChatGPT dans la saison 2 du podcast Repères. ChatGPT qui percute le monde de la formation plus fortement que les simples possibilités offertes par l’adaptative learning.
2023-04-2108 minRepèresÉpisode 14 - La formation immersiveLe développement des technologies immersives, comme la réalité augmentée et la réalité virtuelle, a permis l’émergence de nouvelles formes de formation professionnelle : la formation immersive. Cette méthode pédagogique permet de plonger l’apprenant dans un environnement virtuel, en lien avec sa réalité professionnelle, et de lui demander d’agir en fonction de ses compétences. Selon plusieurs études, la formation immersive augmente la concentration, la motivation et l’engagement des utilisateurs. L’association France Immersive Learning a pour objectif de démocratiser l’utilisation de ces technologies immersives dans la formation professionnelle et au trav...

Ils apportent de l’informel et de la reconnaissance ouverte de savoir-faire aujourd’hui indispensables.

Ce sont des sigles ou acronymes qui désignent des normes ou des standards dont l’objectif originel est de faciliter la communication entre les LMS et les contenus de formation, d’assurer une certaine interopérabilité entre les premiers et les seconds. La norme la plus connue est SCORM, qui décrit, spécifie les informations qu’un contenu de formation déployé dans un LMS doit renvoyer à celui-ci, de façon à f...

D’autres facteurs entrent en jeu : des événements imprévisibles, comme les confinements de la Covid 19, des bénéficiaires exprimant de nouvelles attentes, des acteurs de la formation soucieux de faire évoluer les dispositifs, enfin des facilitateurs et des missionnaires de l’innovation.
2023-03-2408 minRepèresÉpisode 10 - La classe inverséeLa classe inversée est une méthode de travail qui s’est renouvelée avec l’essor du digital dans les années 2000. Elle fait converger la plupart des ingrédients de la pédagogie innovante : le numérique - en tout premier lieu, mais aussi les méthodes actives et participatives, la pédagogie par compétences, l’élève au centre de l’action - auteur ou co-auteur de ses apprentissages.

La formation digitale a modifié les codes, mais pas totalement ! En effet, à chaque époque, l’apprenant cherche à reconstituer un cocon, un lieu et des rituels de formation. Soit il s’approprie de nouveaux lieux, soit on lui en propose. Des EPN aux tiers-lieux, 20 ans de formations « hors les murs ».
