Learning outcomes

Students will master the concepts of 'enquiry', 'cognitive dissonance', 'asymmetry', 'uncertainty' and 'controversy' and will be able to analyse a support activity in the light of these concepts. They will also be able to use these concepts to develop regulations or design support systems.

Goals

Target skills

To conceptualise the support approach at the interface of different fields so as to be able to adapt its action to the environment.

Objectives

The student will be able to identify certain mental processes used by the coach and/or the coachee in the coaching activity, such as investigation, dissonance management, the asymmetrical relationship, uncertainty management and controversy.

Content

Support will be approached in the light of the following concepts

    an investigative approach
    an area for managing uncertainty
    a space for managing complexity
    a symmetrical space
    a space for resistance
    a space for creativity

Assessment method

Students will be asked to film (or audio record) two support sequences that they have carried out, to post these sequences on the Webcampus platform, to analyse three support sequences filmed by their peers using the intellectual resources of the course, and to produce a summary of the peers' analyses of their own production.
