Pédagogies activesLa pédagogie active a pour objectif de rendre l'élève acteur de ses apprentissages. Si la pédagogie active est traduite dans le monde scientifique par le terme d'Active learning, l'expression dans le monde francophone peut également désigner les méthodes actives portées par des pédagogues comme Célestin Freinet et Maria Montessori.
Communauté en ligneUne communauté en ligne désigne « un groupement d’individus ayant des intérêts communs et interagissant entre eux, autour d’une activité particulière, par le biais de dispositifs sociotechniques connectés par le réseau internet » . Le terme « en ligne » signifie que les membres interagissent via internet. Le terme « communauté virtuelle » (virtual community) est attribué au livre du même nom publié en 1993 et écrit par Howard Rheingold.
Experiential learningExperiential learning (ExL) is the process of learning through experience, and is more narrowly defined as "learning through reflection on doing". Hands-on learning can be a form of experiential learning, but does not necessarily involve students reflecting on their product. Experiential learning is distinct from rote or didactic learning, in which the learner plays a comparatively passive role. It is related to, but not synonymous with, other forms of active learning such as action learning, adventure learning, free-choice learning, cooperative learning, service-learning, and situated learning.
Virtual communityA virtual community is a social network of individuals who connect through specific social media, potentially crossing geographical and political boundaries in order to pursue mutual interests or goals. Some of the most pervasive virtual communities are online communities operating under social networking services. Howard Rheingold discussed virtual communities in his book, The Virtual Community, published in 1993. The book's discussion ranges from Rheingold's adventures on The WELL, computer-mediated communication, social groups and information science.
Inquiry-based learningInquiry-based learning (also spelled as enquiry-based learning in British English) is a form of active learning that starts by posing questions, problems or scenarios. It contrasts with traditional education, which generally relies on the teacher presenting facts and their knowledge about the subject. Inquiry-based learning is often assisted by a facilitator rather than a lecturer. Inquirers will identify and research issues and questions to develop knowledge or solutions.
