Résumé

Cet article présente un compte rendu exhaustif des recherches menées sur l'efficacité de l'enseignant. Plus de 150 sources primaires et secondaires ont été consultées. Ce tour d'horizon révèle que d'immenses progrès ont été réalisés depuis le premier bilan important sur la question, il y a dix-sept ans (Rosenshine et Furst, 1971). Vingt facteurs de recherche de nature pédagogique ont été identifiés; sur ce nombre, dix-sept sont bien documentés. Il y aurait donc lieu de penser, en dépit des critiques, que la recherche empirique peut fournir des éclairages fort utiles sur certaines facettes de l'enseignement et de l'apprentissage. Ce compte rendu intéressera tout particulièrement les formateurs de maîtres, les enseignants et les administrateurs scolaires.
