“…Dans certains cas cependant, cette recherche d'équilibre dans l'interaction de jeu se traduit par un engagement qui permet seulement de répondre a minima aux exigences des tâches (par exemple, coopérer pour maintenir des échanges faciles en attendant la fin de la tâche). Ces cas se manifestent, par exemple, dans des tâches compétitives non évaluées, dont le degré de difficulté ne permet pas aux élèves de s'engager dans un défi stimulant : ils négocient collectivement, en réduisant leurs demandes (Hastie et Pickwell, 1996), tout en manifestant un comportement scolaire acceptable (Hastie et Siedentop, 1999 ;Tousignant et Siedentop, 1983).…”

“…Firstly, the masking process of the teacher relates to management strategies allowing positive interactions with the students, which leads to more efficiency in teaching. This masking process is part of 'overlapping' (in PE: Tousignant and Siedentop, 1983; in the education field: Emmer and Evertson, 1981;Kounin, 1970;Sabers et al, 1991), that is to say, the capacity to run several actions at the same time. Indeed, our study shows that when the teacher interacts with the students, they are able to help one of them while keeping an eye on the others and mask their control intention.…”

“…It is because the activity of 'doing something else than mathematics' stays in 'reasonable' proportions compared to the activity 'doing mathematics', that the students are still able to follow the lesson and learn maths skills. (Guérin et al, 2008: 78) To conclude with the students' masking process, by hiding their intention to play with their peers from the teacher, they behave as 'competent bystanders' (Tousignant and Siedentop, 1983). They develop elaborate strategies to play while pretended to fulfil the teacher's expectations and they know 'how to use the class format to hide their low level of participation within the task structures' (Tousignant and Siedentop, 1983: 49).…”

International audienceSince 2010, French middle schools with a high enrolment of difficult students have benefited from a compensatory policy called 'E ´ coles Collèges et Lycées pour l'Ambition, l'Innovation et la Réussite' (ECLAIR) (Primary and Secondary Schools for Ambition, Innovation and Success). These difficult students frequently misbehave, disengage from academic tasks and provoke conflict in the classroom. However, some physical education (PE) teachers are able to develop successful teaching strategies. This case study has analysed precisely the activity of the teacher in relation to the activity of the students in these difficult classes. It examined the successful forms of interaction between teachers and students in PE classes and sought to determine the meaning of these interactions in structuring a 'difficult' classroom culture. The study was conducted within a situated cognitive anthropology framework in middle schools enrolled in the ECLAIR programme. Eight successful PE teachers and 24 students between the ages of 12 and 16 were involved in this qualitative study. The results revealed that, in spite of divergent intentions, the respective activities of the teachers and students remained coordinated. This coordination was based on a recurrent form of classroom interaction that made use of processes of ostentation and masking

“…In physical education, the ecological model was applied by Tousignant and Siedentop (1983). "The ecology of physical education" is a research stream of which has been the subject of many studies in our discipline (Siedentop, 1994;Musard, Latch and Carlier, 2010).…”

In this article, we describe a particular aspect of the teaching-learning process: students' cooperation. Our research attempts to understand the modalities of student engagement at a private institution in Tunisia. We mobilize the theoretical framework of the ecology of physical education (Tousignant, 1982) as a framework for this research. The data results from video recording and ethnographic observations of a gymnastics cycle conducted by a teacher specialist of tennis. The study was conducted according to a macroscopic analysis of students' behavior of cooperation during three sessions of school education of gymnastics. Through the comparison of forms of engagement for contrasted students (high vs. low), the results reveal recurring characteristics and differences in degrees of cooperation between students according to their school levels.
