Textbook Practices: Reading Texts, Touching Books
2018
Drawing on practice theory, a programme of research is delineated that focuses on textbook practices. Textbooks and their textual content are seen as materially shaped textual artefacts that are adapted, transformed, contested, subverted, or may even be banned from the classroom. Mapping qualitative research that deals with the use of textbooks, two shifts denoting an increasing recognition of practices in textbook research are identified: a shift from static content to dynamic texts in use and a shift from written language to the material artefact itself. The chapter concludes by outlining possibilities for further research on textbook practices.
Editorial : Networks Applied in Science Education Research
2020
Science education research is, in many ways, involved with exploring relational aspects of diverse elements that affect students’ learning outcomes; at one end, the elements may be concepts to be learned, and at the other end, the relations between students in different types of learning settings and environments and, ultimately, how such elements may interact [...]
Developing professional identity through group experiential learning: A Group-Analytic experiential training approach for use with postgraduate clini…
2019
This article describes a Group-Analytic, experiential and non-directive training approach taken with postgraduate clinical psychology students in training. Based on median/large group settings, it is aimed at promoting the development of psychology students’ professional identities. It uses a particular form of experiential learning beyond the rational and cognitive aspects of traditional didactic teaching in order to stimulate students’ own involvement in the integration of their thoughts, feelings and attitudes. From a Group-Analytic perspective, the group is conceived of as an organic entity. The convenor takes up a less intrusive and non-directive role in comparison to a traditional sem…
Les courants intégratifs en psychothérapie
2011
Resume Le champ de l’integration des psychotherapies est vaste, surtout dans les pays anglo-saxons ou le nombre de publications croit enormement au fil des annees. Des courants de recherche se sont interesses a l’efficacite des psychotherapies ainsi qu’aux facteurs communs a toutes les approches, et c’est en developpement a ces preoccupations que s’est creee une volonte de rapprochement entre certaines d’entre elles. Nous detaillons dans cet ecrit les courants majeurs dans le domaine de l’integration des psychotherapies.
The development of source evaluation skills during adolescence: exploring different levels of source processing and their relationships (El desarroll…
2019
This study examines the development of source evaluation skills in four groups of students from 10 to 19 years of age. We designed a set of tasks based on a distinction between three components of ...
Principles of Learner Learning-Centred Didactic in the Context of Technology-Enhanced Learning
2018
The article seeks to update views on didactic practices in the rapidly changing field of education and addresses the timely problem of paradigm transition when shifts in deliberate education have been imposed upon by at least three factors: increased access to digital technologies in the learners’ everyday life and teaching-learning; reform of educational content towards the acquisition of competencies valid for the twenty-first-century social developments; and, in response to these, appropriate changes in teachers’ professional competence to maintain a learner’s learning-centred didactic with learners who, if compared to those of 25 years before, cooperate and communicate differently, are …
Vers une gouvernance d'entreprise effectuale ?
2017
L’effectuation, une forme de rationalite des acteurs mise en avant par Saras Sarasvathy et Herbert Simon, trouve de plus en plus d’applications, notamment dans le domaine de l’entrepreneuriat. Cette rationalite s’applique particulierement lors de la creation d’opportunites d’investissement. L’objectif de cet article est de s’interroger sur les mecanismes favorisant les prises de decision suivant une rationalite effectuale permettant ainsi d’elaborer les fondements d’une gouvernance d’entreprise « effectuale ». Les limites des theories de la gouvernance d’entreprise actuelles sont d’abord mises en avant de facon a montrer ensuite comment integrer l’effectuation. Les specificites d’une gouver…
Stock Volatility Predictability in Bull and Bear Markets
2020
Recent literature on stock return predictability suggests that it varies substantially across economic states being strongest during bad economic times. In line with this evidence, we document that stock volatility predictability is also state dependent. In particular, using a large data set of high-frequency data on individual stocks and a few popular time-series volatility models, in this paper we comprehensively examine how volatility forecastability varies across bull and bear states of the stock market. We find that the volatility forecast horizon is substantially longer when the market is in a bear state than when it is in a bull state. In addition, the volatility forecast accuracy is…
Fostering Dynamic Growth in New Ventures through Venture Capital: Conceptualizing Venture Capital Capabilities
2017
There is ample evidence of the influence of venture capital on the creation and growth of new ventures, yet scant attention has been paid to the heterogeneity of venture capitalists and their capacity to contribute to the dynamic growth of new ventures. This paper aims to contribute to the existing literature by exploring the notion that venture capitalists have beneficial effects on the growth of new ventures when they rely on a set of distinctive skills and processes that we associate with venture capital capabilities. We bridge the venture capital and resource-based view research streams to identify the foundational mechanisms of venture capital capabilities. We develop a set of proposit…
Methodology and trends for an intelligent transport system in developing countries
2018
Abstract Increasingly, the technologies that are used in telecommunications contribute to improve intelligent transport systems. These technologies are systems that offer several concepts like vehicular ad hoc networks, which allow reduction of traffic accidents, traffic congestion and consequently increase road safety and the comfort of road users. Developing countries in general and those of sub-Sahara in particular do not have telecommunication infrastructures, even road infrastructures for the implementation of an intelligent transport system. Moreover, with the serious increase in vehicles in these countries, the problem of traffic regulation arise especially in the inter-urban context…
