Effets du temps sur la résistance des enseignants à intégrer les savoirs de la formation : une étude de cas en natation
2021
International audience
Les compétences fondamentales et le développement : peut-on évaluer les systèmes éducatifs par le niveau d'acquisition homogène d'un bloc de compéten…
2012
Ce travail de recherche tend à apporter une mesure de réalisation de l'objectif du millénaire d'éducation pour tous en centrant, d'une part, la question géographique là où l' 'enjeu reste sensible: l'Afrique subsaharienne et aussi, d'autre-part, au sous-entendu de cet objectif que l'éducation offerte soit de qualité. Notre constat part des éléments de littérature venant de l'économie de l'éducation pour lesquels, si l'éducation primaire n'est pas perçue par des populations comme apportant des compétences de base de qualité, le risque est de voir tout effort éducatif contraint par découragement envers l'école. La démarche s'appuie sur l'analyse des modèles de mesure et les dispositifs d'éval…
Automatic detection of thermal anomalies in induction motors
2021
The paper proposes a methodology based on Artificial Intelligence techniques for the automatic detection of abnormal thermal distributions in electric motors, to rapidly identify pre-faults or fault conditions. The proposed approach, applied to induction motors of different sizes, installed in waterworks plants, is based on the execution of Thermographic Non-Destructive Tests, which allow identifying abnormal operating conditions without interrupting the ordinary working conditions of the system. Thermographic images of induction motors are acquired at the installation site and with perspectives visible to the operator, which are sometimes partially obstructed. These thermographic images ar…
A software tool to acquire, synchronise and playback multimedia data: an application in kinesiology
2000
Assessing the physical condition of the human body frequently requires evaluating different tests performed by different devices. This information has to be analysed simultaneously to derive conclusions, and so a temporal relationship must be established between the data sources. In this paper, synchronisation of the sources of information is achieved by synchronising the clocks of computers connected in a Local Area Network. A clock synchronisation protocol is used and a global time is stamped in each information data flow. During analysis, the time-stamp is used to playback the data in a synchronised way. The proposed system is valid for any medical application in which data synchronisati…
Enjoyment in the Foreign Language Classroom: Does Gender Matter? A Review of Selected Empirical Studies
2021
The present contribution offers an overview of a new research avenue in the field of second language acquisition (SLA) which began to flourish with the advent of Positive Psychology (PP). The study presents the findings of selected empirical studies on foreign language enjoyment (FLE) conducted in various countries, among foreign language (FL) learners at different ages, and at different proficiency levels. As there is a relatively small body of literature that directly concerns gender differences in FLE, the main aim of the present study is to fill the existing research gap in the field. One of the most significant findings to emerge from this study is that the relationship between FLE and…
A user-friendly software for sustainable management of urban areas
2002
The need to collect and process information on urban ecosystem requires the introduction of innovative scientific tools, in order to analyze the current urban factors and to optimize the energetic and environmental profile of urban systems, with regard to carrying capacity and territorial needs and vocations. Addressing these needs requires two main elements: (i) public availability of transparent data; and (ii) availability of interactive software designed to make easier exploration of data, models and results. The aim of the present paper is to show a user-friendly software, which is designed as a decision support system for policy makers in the multi-criteria selection among different pl…
Expliquer la variété des acquisitions au cours préparatoire : les rôles de l'enfant, de la famille et de l'école
1991
International audience; Le texte examine, à partir des résultats d'une enquête longitudinale portant sur 2 200 enfants, quels facteurs sont associés à la variabilité des acquisitions en fin de CP et quels sont leur poids respectif. Est notamment évaluée l'influence i) des facteurs personnels caractéristiques de l'élève (développement cognitif et langagier, comportement vis-à-vis de l'école) quand il aborde l'école élémentaire, ii) des facteurs caractéristiques de son milieu familial et iii) des différences dans le fonctionnement de l'école d'un lieu à l'autre d'enseignement. Les résultats montrent que les différenciations liées à l'élève sont les plus importantes et que l'école fait globale…
L'intelligence de l'enfant : l'empreinte du social
2007
07069; L'intelligence en général, l'intelligence de l'enfant en particulier, sont des questions vives, éternellement en débat. Est-il légitime d'évaluer l'intelligence par un chiffre de QI ? L'intelligence est-elle innée ou acquise ? Quel est le rôle de la famille, de l'école, de la société et de la culture dans la genèse de l'intelligence ? Quels enjeux autour de l'inégalité des capacités intellectuelles? Cet ouvrage fait suite à un premier volume qui présentait les nouvelles avancées de la psychologie cognitive. Il réunit un large éventail de travaux qui analysent le rôle de l'environnement dans la définition et le développement de l'intelligence ; ils pointent aussi les multiples enjeux,…
New customized elbow orthosis made by additive manufacturing
2019
Orthoses are additional devices that help people with disabilities. The focus of this work is the design and manufacture of a new customized elbow orthosis completely made by Additive Manufacturing (AM). One of the innovative characteristic of the device is the use of torsion springs that simulate the action of physiotherapists during exercises for patient rehabilitation. Parametric modeling approach based on generative algorithms was used to design the device. Finally, FEM analyses have been performed to validate the design.
Is naturalistic driving research possible with highly instrumented cars? Lessons learnt in three research centres.
2011
This paper provides an overview of the experiences using Highly Instrumented Cars (HICs) in three research Centres across Europe; Spain, the UK and Greece. The data collection capability of each car is described and an overview presented relating to the relationship between the level of instrumentation and the research possible. A discussion then follows which considers the advantages and disadvantages of using HICs for ND research. This includes the obtrusive nature of the data collection equipment, the cost of equipping the vehicles with sophisticated Data Acquisition Systems (DAS) and the challenges for data storage and analysis particularly with respect to video data. It is concluded th…
