Les mythes sur la profession d'enseignant

"The willingness and ability of academic institutions to respond effec- tively to these challenges is influenced by what Clark (1972) calls institutional sagas. These sagas contain a variety of beliefs or myths that help perpetuate organizational culture by socializing new participants (stu- dents, administrators, and especially the faculty) by establishing norms for their behavior. Among the set of beliefs held by many academic administrators and faculty members about the nature of faculty work and productivity are that (a) teaching, research, and service are activities imbedded in some form within each faculty member's work effort, (b) teaching and research are mutually reinforcing, and as a consequence (c) faculty can simultaneously be productive in teaching and research." (Fairweather_2002 p. 27, citant Clark_1972).


Teachers are born not made

"Writing in School and Society in 1958, George B. Cutten was quite certain from his experiences in academe that "the more research a professor has done, the more books and articles he has written, the better teacher he is supposed to be. But the opposite is more likely to be the case" (p. 372). In direct response to this contention, Lewis Leary (1959), with equal certainty, proclaimed: " (...) The fact is that our best teachers are almost without exception our best scholars .... Scholar- ship is not at a different pole from teaching" (p. 362)." (Feldman 1987, p. 275)

Melland 1996 illustre ces croyances opposées au moyen de cas fictionnels, "Professeur Jones" et "Professeur Smith".

"Feldman (1987) examined the theoretical bases for believing that research and teaching are mutually reinforcing behaviors. Most are versions of Linsky and Straus's (1975) "spillover effect," where, for example, faculty who conduct research are supposedly more likely to introduce research-based material into their classroom instruction. Feldman's review of more than 200 research studies found little relationship between student ratings of teaching excellence and various forms of research productivity (overall correlation coefficient of 0.12). Hattie and Marsh (1996) expanded Feldman's analysis and found an even smaller cross-study correlation (0.06). As I did before them (Fairweather, 1993), Hattie and Marsh found a negative relationship between faculty time allocated to teaching and time allocated to research." (Fairweather, 2002, p. 29)
