Résumé

Une transformation de l’enseignement et de l’apprentissage se produit lorsque les étudiants passent du statut de consommateurs à celui de créateurs de connaissances. Alors qu'il existe un nombre croissant de recherches disponibles sur l'utilisation des ressources d'éducation ouverte par les professeurs et les étudiants, il existe relativement peu de recherches disponibles en ce qui concerne la pédagogie ouverte (PO) dans l'enseignement supérieur. Les quelques études qui ont exploré les perceptions de l'OP se sont concentrées sur une pratique spécifique de l'OP dans un contexte restreint (une ou deux sections de cours). La présente étude de synthèse a examiné les perceptions des professeurs et des étudiants d'une université canadienne à travers plusieurs cours et une gamme de types de PO. Les analyses quantitatives et qualitatives ont révélé que les étudiants et les professeurs étaient positifs quant aux avantages et aux impacts de l'engagement dans l'OP, mais chacun a exprimé des difficultés liées au besoin de plus de temps pour l'OP. De plus, alors que les étudiants ont éprouvé des difficultés avec le processus, les professeurs ont eu des difficultés avec les soutiens. Des recommandations sont fournies sur la manière dont les professeurs peuvent soutenir les étudiants lorsqu'ils s'engagent dans l'OP et sur la manière dont les établissements peuvent soutenir les professeurs qui s'engagent dans l'OP. En fin de compte, en savoir plus sur les expériences et les perspectives des étudiants et des professeurs pourrait contribuer à éclairer le développement de meilleures pratiques pour les professeurs qui souhaitent utiliser OP avec les étudiants.
