Bursts of laughter. This is what first made me look up from the mountain of objects and papers piled up on my desk. Then, instead of doing my little cleaning routine while my students were having fun, I continued to watch them.

Description of Some Robots Available for Pedagogical Use, in alphabetical order, according to the list provided by the Centre d’acquisitions gouvernementales du Québec
Bien que la programmation soit de plus en plus présente dans les écoles, la majorité des applications utilisées proposent d’apprendre la programmation par bloc. Celle-ci permet de comprendre la logique derrière la programmation et évite certaines difficultés reliées à l’apprentissage du langage de programmation lui-même. Une fois cette base bien maîtrisée par les élèves, il est possible d’aller plus loin et d’intégrer la programmation textuelle.

Although social and emotional competencies and their role in human lives are recognized worldwide, there is no universally official definition of them. Emotional intelligence, psychosocial competencies, socio-affective skills, etc.: they have all kinds of names.

If we recognize that these social and emotional competencies are transversal and intrinsically linked to school learning, it is clear that they are rarely the subject of explicit teaching at school, even if they are taught as other school subjects (Oliviera et al., 2021; Rimm-Kauffman and Hamre, 2010).

Affective or social-emotional competencies play a major role in teaching and learning. However, these competencies are not stagnant: they are competencies that anyone can learn to develop—but not just in any manner!
