Modélisation de l'exposition au bruit en milieu urbain et études épidémiologiques : quelles sources sonores ?

National audience; Epidemiological studies on noise in urban areas are mostly based on a modelling approach which only focuses on noise sources related to transportation and industries. Additional sources are likely to influence the ambient noise level, but the spatio-temporal influence they could have is rarely studied. The objective of this study is to identify urban noise sources that could improve environmental noise prediction and to quantify their respective contributions. An acoustic measurement campaign was conducted in frontage of 44 dwellings located on the city of Besancon (France). Measurements were compared to noise levels predictions produced from different noise maps in which…

Analyse des pratiques professionnelles en formation initiale des enseignants : dispositifs et retentissements

Resume La recherche que nous presentons s’interesse aux dispositifs d’analyse de pratiques professionnelles utilises pour la formation des enseignants. Nous montrons en quoi certaines caracteristiques du dispositif, relevant du type de protocole utilise ou de la taille du groupe, affectent la nature du travail reflexif ainsi les perceptions concernant l’interet et la pertinence de ce type de dispositifs. Pour ce faire, nous prenons appui sur une enquete specifiant les principaux effets et retentissements de ces dispositifs sur les representations construites par les professeurs stagiaires tant au niveau de l’agir professionnel que de celui de leur construction identitaire.

Noise annoyance in urban children: a cross-sectional population-based study

International audience; Acoustical and non-acoustical factors influencing noise annoyance in adults have been well-documented in recent years; however, similar knowledge is lacking in children. The aim of this study was to quantify the annoyance caused by chronic ambient noise at home in children and to assess the relationship between these children0s noise annoyance level and individual and contextual factors in the surrounding urban area. A cross sectional population-based study was conducted including 517 children attending primary school in a European city. Noise annoyance was measured using a self-report questionnaire adapted for children. Six noise exposure level indicators were built…
