Question 12412 — teaching

Summary

Mrs. Florence Herouin-Léautey draws the attention of the Minister of National Education to the school program of moral and civic education (EMC), introduced by the law of July 8, 2013 and provided since the start of the 2015 school year in all schools, from preparatory class to final year. In accordance with article L. 121-1 of the education code, schools, colleges and high schools contribute to responsibility education civic, particularly in the use of the Internet and online public communication services. As such, the EMC is fully part of the mission of transmitting republican values ​​entrusted to the public education service. Given the growing impact of digital technology and algorithms on opinion formation, particularly among the youngest, it appears essential that EMC fully integrates media education and information as a structuring axis. Increased awareness among students of digital mechanisms and their potential abuses seems necessary. Educational supervision promoting informed and responsible use of the Internet and social networks would also be likely to judiciously strengthen the effectiveness of these lessons. Furthermore, moral and civic education would benefit from relying more on projects concrete and experiential, such as institutional visits, democratic simulations or local citizen projects, carried out in partnership with educational establishments and local authorities. Finally, many teachers and union organizations highlight a regrettable lack of initial and continuing training. A substantial strengthening of teacher training, particularly on the management of debate in class, secularism and media education, as well as the integration of a compulsory CME module within the INSPE, would appear necessary. In short, she asks him if the Government intends to initiate a reflection aimed at strengthening the role and place of moral and civic education, both in its content and in the training of teachers responsible for providing it.
