The Integration of Computer Science into Educational Systems in France and Czechoslovakia: A Historical Comparison (1955- 1965)
Original language description
This study compares the introduction of computer science and cybernetics into the educational systems of France and Czechoslovakia between 1955 and 1965. This period marks the first initiatives in teaching these disciplines within a context of technological and pedagogical transformations. In France, early experiments in the use of computer science and cybernetics gradually developed within major technical institutions such as École Polytechnique and Supelec, supported by academic and governmental initiatives. In Czechoslovakia, despite different political and economic constraints, the teaching of these fields expanded in polytechnic universities, particularly in Prague. This study explores the strategies implemented in both countries, focusing on curricula, teacher training, and the first applications of technology in education. Special attention is given to comparing the educational systems in terms of cybernetics and computer science, highlighting challenges, differences, and the early influence of technology on education in these two contexts.
