In 2006 Pascal Chazot had completed his Doctoral thesis in Education for which he received the highest mention (tres honorable) and a unanimous felicitation from the jury who gave Pascal a standing ovation.
In 2007 his thesis was selected by the University of Paris (13) for an award for outstanding research. In a ceremony held in Paris on December 12 he was awarded a medal as well a Doctorate of Honor by the President of the University. The award was conferred in the presence of other researchers.
Pascal’s thesis is entitled
“Co-naissance de la connaissanceâ€
In his work, he studies at length the teacher-student relationship with an exhaustive analysis of the learning process from the wholistic perspective. Pascal also wrote on what he termed as “The Ekalavya complex†based on an ancient tale from the Indian mythology of the Guru (teacher) and the disciple.
This award validates Pascal’s vision and work in creating the Mahatma Gandhi International School.
