A reflection is proposed around the idea of "theory" in education. About the different meanings attributed to the theory in pedagogical thinking. Seven hypotheses are then explored, such as seven ways of conceiving the theory, namely: 1. The theory as a regulation: a guide for action; 2. The theory as sacred scripture: an elevated canon; 3. The theory as a tool: a battery of resources; 4. The theory as a foundation or code of ethics: an endorsement; 5. Theory as vocabulary: a glossary to look at; 6. Theory as thought: constant review of meaning, and 7. Theory as conversation.Downloads
