Résumé

To investigate how Québec’s teachers have coped with the education reforms introduced in 2000, we administered an online survey to 427 teachers. This article presents two types of data: 1) statistical results on teachers’ responses to closed questions; and 2) teachers’ comments, representing predominant opinions. Views difered considerably between elementary and high school teachers: high school teachers were more critical, particularly about the training they received and the efects of the reform on student learning
