How Wild Can It Get? Managing Language Learning Tasks in Real Life Service Encounters
2019
This chapter explores how experientially based pedagogical activities that involve participation in real life service encounters provide occasions for developing L2 interactional competence. The data comprises novice L2 students’ self-recorded interactions in service settings and videorecordings of classroom planning activities and de-briefing discussions, where the students reflect on their experiences. The analysis traces what kinds of occasions for learning arise as the students move between the classroom and the real-world service settings. The findings show that the different phases of the task complement each other in supporting the development of interactional competence. The prepara…

Genèse et mémoires des randonnées littéraires
2018
Depuis les années 1980, les randonnées littéraires autour d’écrivains sont associées à des lectures de romans en vue d’entretenir la vitalité d’une œuvre dans une perspective de valorisation. Si les mémoires collectives sont longtemps restées l’apanage des ethnologues, les maisons d’écrivains sont les premières institutions à développer un type d’itinéraires touristiques en lien avec les politiques locales. Utilisant une approche basée sur les ressources territoriales, il s’agit de revenir sur l’émergence des randonnées littéraires consacrées à Jean Giono et de resituer cette démarche dans son articulation avec l’offre touristique régionale. La célébration de cet auteur se concentre aujourd…
Configurational theory in traditional manufacturing industries: a new model of high-performing small and medium-sized enterprises
2020
The goal of this study is to provide a model of high-performing small and medium-sized companies to address the new environmental challenges in traditional manufacturing industries. Adopting a configurational logic and following an inductive approach based on four high-performing firms, this paper provides new empirical evidence on how the steps followed by these firms are adjusted to the high-performance models prescribed by the literature. In doing so, it also offers a dynamic view of the interrelationships between the strategy and the new conditions of the environment. At a practitioner level, the paper illustrates which recipes are more appropriate to prescribe recommendations for a mor…

Le livre audio en bibliothèque de lecture publique : dispositifs de médiation et formes de prescription d’un support « mineur »
2019
International audience; À partir d’une enquête sur les discours et pratiques liés au livre audio du côté d’usagers et de bibliothécaires menée à l’occasion d’un projet de recherche-action dans trois bibliothèques de lecture publique françaises, nous essayons dans cet article de faire avancer la réflexion autour de la notion de prescription, historiquement ancrée dans la figure du bibliothécaire, et de travailler en particulier les écarts entre la prescription d’un format qui reste un impensé de la profession et la médiation d’une expérience d’écoute de la littérature. Cet écart a des conséquences sur la manière dont les « audio lecteurs » parviennent à dire et à partager leurs pratiques. No…
Translation as a Multimodal Negotiation Process
2018
The research presented in this paper aims to render more visible the negotiation process of beginners in German as a foreign language (level A1 and A2) at university, while they translate previously simplified texts from Italian into German using Google Translator. The study belongs in the field of classroom research focusing on the learner´s use of online resources during translating activities. The approach used for the empirical analysis is a multimodal method which is exemplified by analysis of a video sequence. The paper then discusses and evaluates the value of Google Translator as a teaching aid in foreign language classes.
Transnational ties: Resource or stressor on Peruvian migrants' well‐being?
2020
This paper explores the role of types and the intensity of transnational ties for migrants' well‐being from a global perspective. Based on a literature review, two competing hypotheses are formulated—transnational resources versus transnational stress—according to which transnational ties have either a positive or a negative effect on migrants' well‐being. Drawing on data from a large‐scale survey of Peruvian migrants worldwide, this paper examines the strength and direction of the relationship between Peruvian migrants' transnational ties and poor well‐being, the latter measured as depression/loneliness as a principal concern. While the multivariate regression results do not support the tr…
Minimizing fleet operating costs for a container transportation company
2006
Abstract This paper focuses on a fleet management problem that arises in container trucking industry. From the container transportation company perspective, the present and future operating costs to minimize can be divided in three components: the routing costs, the resource (i.e., driver and truck) assignment costs and the container repositioning costs (i.e., the costs of restoring a given container fleet distribution over the serviced territory, as requested by the shippers that own the containers). This real-world problem has been modeled as an integer programming problem. The proposed solution approach is based on the decomposition of this problem in three simpler sub-problems associate…
Use of information sources in outbound travel planning: case of the Netherlands and Belgium
2020
In the Information Age travellers have a wide range of information that can be accessed by a variety of channels. The kind of information search travellers undertake and acquire will have significant consequences for the purchases they will make. There is a need for repeated studies to track possible changes in tourist behaviour for information search patterns as use of information sources and their combination evolve over the time. Understanding tourists’ information search peculiarities can be of use for tourism scholars and practitioners in the marketing planning process. Majority of European citizens are travelling mainly within their home country (Eurobarometer, 2014) still small count…
