L’entretien de recherche : un révélateur du vécu des liens travail/formation pour des stagiaires en alternance et ses effets sur leur développement professionnel

Abstract

The interview is a privileged methodological research tool. We applied it in the context of our doctoral work to shed light on the temporalities in the construction of the professional identity of trainee teachers. If the research interview has a heuristic aim for the researcher, what impact does it have on the interviewee? The discourse produced during the interviews enabled us to gain access to the experiences of the work-study students in the process of professionalization and shed light on the way in which they articulated work and training. Because our results indicate that the exchanges also brought out the meaning of certain situations for the trainees, we hypothesise that the research interview thus contributed to their professional development.
