Etude d'un dispositif d'aide a l'intention d'{\'e}l{\`e}ves en difficult{\'e} dans la r{\'e}solution d'une situation-probl{\`e}me math{\'e}matique

TL;DR

This study analyzes a support session designed for elementary students struggling with math problem-solving, highlighting its functions and effectiveness through detailed episode analysis.

Contribution

It introduces a detailed analysis of a support session's functions and its impact on students' problem-solving in elementary mathematics.

Findings

The aid session helps students by providing targeted support.

The session's functions operate at multiple levels (chrono-topo-meso-genetic).

Episode analysis reveals how these functions facilitate student understanding.

Abstract

In this paper, we analyze an aid session tested by an elementary school teachers. This aid session has been set up by a teacher for some students with difficulties after the work in the whole class. We first show how this aid session can help the pupils, especially through its chrono-topo-meso-genetic functions. Then we analyze a second situation in which the aid session is implemented, looking for clues of these functions in some episodes involving students who participated in the aid session.
