disagree  Alain Roth: "assistant professor" = "professeur assistant". Il s'agit du grade le plus bas de professeur, correspondant plus ou moins à "maitre de conférecnce"
31 mins
  -> Puisque le taux de réussite des étudiants est en baisse, impliquez-vous le fait que les professeurs associés, qui sont des "professionnels ", ne disposeraient donc pas de la pédagogie nécessaire pour former les étudiants ?
