La formation des enseignants joue un rôle important dans la transition des communautés vers des modes durables. Cette étude rend compte de l’élaboration d’un cours en ligne national destiné aux personnes enseignantes en formation et axé sur l’éducation à l’environnement et à la durabilité (ÉED), ainsi que des recherches menées à ce sujet. Cette initiative collaborative a rassemblé des universitaires, des éducateurs communautaires et des personnes enseignantes de la maternelle à la 12e année afin d’offrir un apprentissage en ligne participatif. En facilitant l’apprentissage centré sur les concepts d’écojustice et d’apprentissage critique basé sur le lieu, ce cours visait à assurer un accès équitable à l’ÉED pour les personnes enseignantes en formation initiale à travers le Canada. Nous posons la question suivante : quelles sont les attentes et les expériences des participants et quel est l’impact de leur participation à ce cours? En utilisant une perspective socio-critique, les auteurs s’appuient sur des données d’enquête pour rendre compte des résultats du cours. Nous espérons qu’il pourra servir de nouveau modèle d’ÉED dans la formation initiale des enseignants et, plus généralement, qu’il mettra en évidence la capacité à faire comprendre l›éducation à l›éco-justice et les liens avec la communauté par le biais d›espaces d›apprentissage virtuels.
