Inspection bodies guaranteeing the quality of sustainable knowledge and its transmission The French case
Main Article Content
Abstract
Faced with the challenge of a knowledge-based society, States must set up bodies to control the quality of knowledge and its transmission. In France, the inspection bodies created at the beginning of the 19th century have constantly evaluated teachers, establishments, policies and systems. Currently, the analysis of the inspectors' activities shows a great fragmentation of their function which does not facilitate their essential mission of evaluation and scientific, didactic and pedagogical improvement of the taught subjects. Four avenues are proposed to consolidate the evaluation work and respond to the economic, cultural and educational challenges of globalization.
