Combiner suivi de l'activite? et partage d'expériences en apprentissage par projet pour les acteurs tuteurs et apprenants

Our work aims to study tools offered to students and tutors involved in face-to-face or blended project- based learning activities. Project-based learning is often applied in the case of complex learning (i.e. which aims at making learners acquire various linked skills or develop their behaviours). In comparison to traditional learning, this type of learning relies on co-development, collective responsibility and co-operation. Learners are the principal actors of their learning. These trainings rest on rich and complex organizations, particularly for tutors, and it is difficult to apply innovative educational strategies. Our aim, in a bottom-up approach, is (1) to observe, according to Knowledge Management methods, a course characterized by these three criteria. The observed course concerns project management learning. Its observation allows us (2) to highlight and to analyze the problems encountered by the actors (students, tutors, designers) and (3) to propose tools to solve or improve them. We particularly study the relevance and the limits of the existing monitoring and experience sharing tools. We finally propose a result in the form of the tool MEShaT (Monitoring and Experience Sharing Tool) and end on the perspectives offered by these researches.
