"C'est la crise" Un contexte de valeurs en tension dans l'évaluation: Conférence 2 du cycle de conférences 2023-24 de l'ADMEE Europe ssection Suisse

Résumé En

In this conference, we will contribute to the discussion on taking context into account in evaluations by focusing on two concepts. The first is that of value. What is value, not what is or can be valuable? The concept of value is central to evaluation, starting with its etymology and its lexical root '-valu-'. Following authors' attempts to draw up a 'paradigm of value in evaluation' (Figari & Achouche, 1997; Hadji, 2021; Lecointe, 1997; Schwartz, 2020), we will attempt to understand the epistemological place of this concept, which potentially corresponds to several contexts of meaning. The second concept is that of crisis (Husserl, 1976; Revault d'Allonnes, 2012). Bringing crisis and evaluation together is nothing new: Lucie Mottier Lopez and Gérard Figari were already highlighting its significance in 2012, following an ADMEE-Europe symposium on modelling in evaluation. (Mottier Lopez & Figari, 2012). We will continue on this thread and discover, in essence, that the crisis is far from over, creating tension.
