About
The OAE Node France-CY (OAENF-CY) is hosted by CY Cergy Paris University (CYU) and managed by Emmanuel Rollinde and Gilles Remy. It will mainly focus on evaluating and providing high-quality astronomy teaching resources based on up-to-date didactics research, an on providing professional teacher training, whilst working to build the OAE’s network of collaborations particularly in the francophone regions.
OAENF-CY is supported by two laboratories in CYU, LDAR-CY and LERMA-CY. LDAR is a science and mathematics education research institute whose main topics are the study of learning, teaching and training processes. LERMA stands for Laboratory for the Study of Radiation and Matter in Astrophysics and Atmospheres and is interested in the triple aspect of scientific knowledge (observation - experimentation - interpretation).

Emmanuel Rollinde
Manager, OAE Node France at CY Cergy Paris University
Based at LDAR/CYU
emmanuel.rollindeatcyu.fr
My early career started as a researcher in astrophysics in 1999, in the Institute of Astrophysics of Paris. I then oriented my research towards science didactics with a focus on interdisciplinary (STEAM) teaching using the framework of astronomy within the F-HOU association. The discovery of embodied cognition and the encounter with the Human Orrery were a turning point. Today, as a University Professor in Science Didactics in the Laboratory LDAR/CYU, I am specialised in Astronomy for Education, and in the combination of didactics and embodied cognition.
