Résumé

Le perfectionnement des enseignants en informatique exige la mise sur pied de cours de premier cycle, de séances de formation pratique et de cours de deuxième et de troisième cycles. Le perfectionnement en informatique serait plus efficace s'il se fondait sur une analyse des ordinateurs comme médias de communications et sur l'évaluation des besoins des enseignants. Une évaluation en fonction des programmes et des besoins les plus courants permettrait d'orienter comme il se doit le perfectionnement des maîtres, de suggérer des stratégies d'implantation et d'optimiser le rapport enseignants-innovation.
