Enseignement-apprentissage des compétences socio-émotionnelles aux él`eves avec déficience visuelle : de la théorie à la pratique

Socio-emotional skills (SESs) are primarily acquired implicitly through observation and imitation in social interactions. Students with visual impairment (VI) are likely to face challenges in this area, which can affect their relationships with peers, increase their dependence on adults, and limit their social participation. Nevertheless, students with VI have the potential to learn SESs and develop compensatory strategies. This theoretical article therefore has three objectives. First, from a theoretical perspective, it explores the specific link between SESs and VI. Second, it proposes a general theory of teaching-learning of SESs, drawing on the vygotskian approach towards special education. Third, from a practical perspective, it presents assessment tools and teaching-learning strategies for SESs, aimed at supporting special education teachers and educators working in this field.
