Résumé
Le but de cet article est d’engager la réflexion et l’analyse sur la formation des professeurs de comptabilité, en utilisant la comptabilité critique comme cadre théorique. Il existe de nombreux défis à relever dans l’enseignement des cours de comptabilité en ce qui concerne les cours supplémentaires d’enseignement général et professionnel (Further Education and Train- ing- FET) où les enseignants ont des difficultés par rapport au contenu de la connaissance, à la pédagogie relative à la comptabilité ainsi qu’aux pratiques en classe. Dans cet article, nous soutenons que bon nombre de ces défis pourraient être relevés par l’adoption des principes et des idées de la comptabilité critique comme bases pour la formation des futurs enseignants. La comptabilité critique est aussi le cadre théorique dans lequel nous pla- çons l’étude, car elle encourage l’apprentissage optimal de la comptabilité. Cette amélioration de la qualité, telle que soutenue ici, est marquée par des stratégies d’enseignement et d’apprentissage efficaces qui sont centrées sur l’apprenant. Celles-ci promeuvent l’apprentissage autorégulé et sont compatibles avec les dispositions de la constitution démocratique du pays par rapport à l’équité, la justice sociale, la paix, la liberté et l’espoir. En conclusion, l’article soutient que la comptabilité critique n’est pas distincte de la pratique comptable en général. Au contraire, elle est considérée comme un moyen de réflexion ou d’interaction avec l’information comptable pour contester les interprétations hégémoniques et contre-transformatrices qui sont classiquement générées pour déresponsabiliser et marginaliser davan- tage les communautés subalternes. La comptabilité critique est utilisée à la fois comme angle d’analyse et mode de formation des enseignants. En tant qu’approche pédagogique, elle semble permettre un bon enseignement de la comptabilité qui est plus qu’une simple « formation spécialisée » et plus qu’un simple « développement des compétences ». Il s’agit d’une approche orientée vers l’actualisation des aspirations de l’individu, en termes de bien-être social et économique, d’une manière qui renforce ses capacités et le transforment. Cet article examine donc les défis en matière d’enseignement et d’apprentissage de la comptabilité et suggère les voies et moyens de les révéler par une approche de formation des enseignants fondée sur des stratégies comptables critiques.
