enseignement, improvisation, pratique, herméneutiqueRésumé
L'improvisation est un phénomène profondément ancré dans la vie quotidienne des enseignants et des étudiants. Pourtant, peu d’éducateurs prennent le temps de considérer que l’improvisation est nécessaire pour parvenir à une compréhension significative avec les élèves. Cet article est une enquête herméneutique qui positionne le curriculum comme une improvisation par s'engageant dans une conversation qui peut élargir la compréhension de ce que c’est l’herméneutique et de ce que signifie être une enseignante qui vit bien avec les autres. En examinant des incidents spécifiques qui ont marqué ma vie de musicienne de jazz et d’éducatrice, je propose des réflexions sur l’enseignement comme étant, à la base, une pratique interprétative. En m’appuyant davantage sur la notion de conversation authentique de Gadamer (2001), sur l’histoire de l’improvisation jazz et sur mes propres expériences vécues, j’engage une conversation sur les raisons pour lesquelles je crois que l’enseignement est une pratique interprétative comparable à l’improvisation et à la conversation authentique.
