The accompanying activity as experienced by educational advisors during interviews with directions, seems to be characterized by a structural treatment of uncertainty through investigation. The latter may target the very purpose of the accompaniment, the contextualized characteristics of the subject of the accompaniment or the object, tools and strategies of the accompanying activity. Having opted for the epistemology of activity, we have developed a tool to approach mental activity (mental acting out) and crossed it with the scheme of inquiry by John Dewey. In this paper we present some products of our doctoral research characterizing the accompanying activity of educational advisors from the free network of primary education in the French-speaking part of Belgium.
