subject

description

This thesis focuses on educational policies in favor of digital technologies and on levers of action implemented to encourage students and teachers to use these technologies in school. The ethnographic study took place from July 2013 to October 2015 and was conducted in a college engaged in tablet experimentation for digital education (TED). The research focuses on the processes of appropriation of a mobile technology designed to be educational and aimed at developing innovative and enriched new instrumented practices. The experiment study is centered around the device concept. To analyze the actual or expected effects of the use of a socio-technical object in an educational context and the circumstances of its appropriation by users, several observation methods have been combined. The analysis reveals significant tensions between prescribed practices - through discourses, national educational policies, experiments, the technical object itself - and the actual practices of users.
