Contribution de la caisse de solidarité interscolaire pour l’intégration effective de l’approche par compétence : expérience et attente des acteurs de la ville de Kikwit, Province du Kwilu, RD Congo

In Kikwit, the skills-based approach is theoretically implemented, but in practice, its existence is difficult to demonstrate, given that teaching is still oriented towards the Objective-Based Approach. This shortcoming can be seen in many of Kikwit's ITMs. The aim of this study is to analyze the impact of integrating the solidarity fund into the implementation of the competencybased approach in Kikwit's technical medical schools, taking into account the experiential experience of the educational players. We used a phenomenological survey, based on a qualitative approach. The understanding of APC is mostly positive, with a consensus around the idea that this approach places the learner at the center of the educational process. The integration of APC into ITM seems to have been gradual, with particular attention paid to teacher training. The changes observed since the adoption of APC are significant. The challenges involved in adopting APC are manifold. On the one hand, infrastructure and material resources are lacking, making it difficult to implement modern teaching methods. The solidarity fund at the Institut Technique Médical (ITM) is seen as an internal financial support, mainly for teachers and the institution, with contributions coming largely from students, while the management of this fund. The solidarity fund and the APC seem to work in synergy, each supporting the other for a more effective and comprehensive implementation of educational reforms within schools.
