Instrumental approach, potential and weakness
Taking into account teacher’s role in orchestrating learning situations
Understanding the true role of teachers in a changing digital world
Crossing theoretical frameworks, towards a documentational
approach of didactics
• Questions and current research
The instrumental approach (Guin &
Trouche 1999), motivated by:
• The rapid evolution and
proliferation of tools in
mathematics classroom;
• Their influence on both students
activity and conceptualisation.
An approach rooted in Vygotski
theory (the word artefact situates
human activity in a world of culture
and history) and in Piaget theory (the
notion of scheme).
A developmental approach of learning
Instrumental genesis
Once upon a time…
An artefact
A subject
Instrumentation
Instrumentalisation
An instrument = a part
of the artefact +
utilisation scheme
Artefacts
Mains results
Instrumental geneses
The fruitful notion of system of
instruments (from a system of
tasks and a set of artefacts)
A focus on instrumentation
Instrumentalisation:
underestimated
The unexpected complexity and
diversity of instrumental geneses
Where is the teacher?
A subject
Instrumentation
Instrumentalisation
Instruments = part of
artefacts + utilisation
schemes
Orchestration!
The idea of necessary external
steering of students instrumental
geneses, to help the construction of
efficient instrument systems
An instrumental orchestration is
defined by didactic configurations
(i.e., the layout of the artifacts
available in the environment, with
one layout for each stage of the
mathematical treatment) and by
exploitation modes of these
configurations (Trouche 2004)
For the teacher: need for meta
artifacts, for new resources (a lot of
them provided by Internet)

Changes of
words, or
paradigm
shift?
From an instrumental to a documentational approach of
didactics, from dialectic artefact / instrument to dialectic
resources / document
• Taking into account major technological developments
• Hybridization with an approach coming from the field of
information architecture (Pedauque 2006) and curriculum
material (Remillard 2005)
• An deeper understanding of concepts as instrumentalisation,
geneses, emerging of new concepts (resource systems)

•
Half baked theories as boundary objects (Kynigos)
A "good distance" between theories, provided fruitful crossovers?
Hybridization (crossbreeding) requires successful theoretical
reasons to be (= problem solving) and a long companionship
The theoretical diversity as a condition of scientific development
