A Study of Acquiring L2 Vocabulary Through Using Word Part Strategy

LIU, XINJIE January 2011 (has links)
Vocabulary learning strategy plays an important role in vocabulary acquisition; one of the major vocabulary strategies is word part strategy. The purpose of this study is to investigate whether word part strategy can help students to understand words and facilitate vocabulary acquisition. Ten teacher trainee students from a university in Sweden participated in the study. All were given a vocabulary pre-test, a lecture about word-formation rules, two vocabulary tests and a questionnaire. The results show that word part strategy is helpful in understanding words and facilitating vocabulary acquisition. The strategy is especially useful for those students who have a good knowledge of affixes. In addition, the choice of affixes also affects the application of word part strategy. In order to master word part strategy, more time is needed to learn the meaning of affixes and to practise how to re-express the meaning of words with the aid of the meaning of the word parts. The results of the study show that there are great differences between individual results, which, in turn, leads to a questioning of the efficiency of word part strategy. The present study is a starting point for further research on the connection between students’ level of English and the effectiveness of word part strategy as a teaching method.

Högskolebildningens fem ansikten : studerandes föreställningar om kunskapspotentialer i teknik, medicin, ekonomi och psykologi: en kvalitativ utvärderingsstudie

Olofsson, Anders January 1993 (has links)
The purpose of this study is to examine the process of stabilization and/or change in university students' notions of content and transmission and acquisition of knowledge. The subjects, 25 students of engineering, economics, medicine, and psychology, were interviewed at the beginning and the end of their training period. The main result of the study is that the students of psychology, both at the beginning and the end of their training, manifest the greatest variation in notions of content and in the transmission and acquisition of knowledge. They express five qualitatively different notions at these two points of time. Furthermore, practically all students of psychology develop a repertory of notions in the course of their training. This means that the students simultaneously express more than one notion of the content of their education. Initially, the students of economics express three different notions of content and of the transmission and acquisition of knowledge. Towards the end of their training, they have developed a fourth notion. Slightly more than half of the students of economics acquire a repertory of notions of the content of economics in the course of their training. Initially, the students of medicine express three notions of medicine. Towards the end of their training they express only two different types of notions of the content of medicine. Few students of medicine develop an individual repertory of notions. Initially, the students of engineering express three different notions of engineering. Towards the end of their training they express four qualitatively different notions. Some students develop a repertory of notions of enginee­ring in the course of their training. From the point of view of content, the students' notions vary between social and individual explanations and definitions of their respective subjects. The changes in the students' notions are analysed on the basis of the curriculum code of each programme. The programmes of medicine and engineering are dominated by a collected code whereas the programmes of economics and psychology are dominated by an integrated code. / digitalisering@umu

Etude communicationnelle des usages des TIC dans le milieu éducatif sénégalais : le cas des lycéens de Dakar / A study of the use of ICTs in Senegalese educational environment : the case of high school students in Dakar

Ndiaye, Mbemba 05 December 2017 (has links)
Les technologies de l’information et de la communication (TIC) occupent une place importante dans les débats publics sénégalais. En outre, elles semblent être au centre des préoccupations des dirigeants de ce pays, car les espoirs qu’elles suscitent dans le domaine de l’éducation sont assez nombreux. Mais, l’introduction des TIC dans les lycées soulève également des interrogations de la part des chercheurs et des acteurs éducatifs quant à leurs usages. Cette thèse porte sur les pratiques numériques des lycéens. L’objectif que nous poursuivons est de comprendre dans quelle mesure les usages des TIC peuvent leur permettre de s’approprier des savoirs. Ici, comprendre c’est, s’intéresser aux représentations, aux connaissances et aux compétences qui impliquent l’usage des outils informatisés, mais aussi aux sens des usages. La question des usages des TIC par les élèves suscite un intérêt particulier auprès des chercheurs de certaines disciplines, particulièrement ceux de la sociologie des usages, des sciences cognitives et des sciences de l’éducation. Ainsi, nous avons privilégié une approche théorique pluridisciplinaire et une pluralité méthodologique (le questionnaire, l’observation directe et l’entretien d’explicitation) en ayant recours à des outils spécifiques pour recueillir les données (dictaphone, notes, captures d’écrans). L’analyse a permis de voir que ces usagers-apprenants s’approprient les technologies numériques à des fins d’apprentissage et a mis en relief le « versant sombre » de leurs pratiques. Partant des données obtenues nous proposons quelques pistes de réflexion pour une intégration optimale des TIC dans les pratiques d’enseignement et d’apprentissage. / Information and communication technologies (ICTs) are central to Senegalese public debates. Moreover, the leaders of this country view them as very advantageous to education. However, their introduction in high schools raises a lot of questions from both researchers and educators as regards their usage. This study is about digital practices of high school students Our aim is to understand the extent to which the use of ICTs can enable them to acquire knowledge. Understanding in this regard implies looking at the perceptions, knowledge and skills related to the use of computerized tools, but also the meanings of this usage. The use of ICTs by pupils is also of particular interest to researchers in the fields of humanities and social sciences, especially those in the sociology, cognitive sciences and education areas. Thus, in order to better define the subject, this study used a multidisciplinary theoretical approach and a plural methodology (questionnaires, direct observation and interviews) as well as specific tools (voice-recorder, notes and screenshots) to collect data during two field investigations that were conducted in Dakar secondary schools (from March to April 2013 and November to December 2015). The analysis revealed that these learner-users use digital technologies for learning purposes but also highlighted the "dark side" of their practices. On the basis of the data obtained, we also suggest ways in which ICTs can be optimally integrated in teaching and learning practices.

Go Green in the Automotive Industry : Open and Networked Innovation applied by Tesla Motors and Renault

Adén, Emil, Barray, Aline January 2008 (has links)
In today’s economical world, companies realize the importance to build corporate strategies on innovation to sustain a continuous profitability. Innovation is a crucial issue to develop a competitive advantage. In our networked economy, companies can not only rely on in-house activities anymore to raise creative and come up with breakthrough innovations they need to collaborate with actors from the external environment. Firms have to think outside their own boundaries to leverage the complementary resources and capabilities needed to innovate. Partnerships help to ensure firms’ future successes. The purpose of our study is to understand how companies, operating in the automotive industry, integrate ‘Open and Networked Innovation’ concepts in their corporate strategy to enhance their environmental friendly profile. As far as the EV market is concerned, our study will also lead to determine the Key Factors of Success and the barriers that companies have to face when they want to launch an electric car in the market. Various theoretical approaches have been developed over the time about Open Innovation and Networked Innovation. The dilemma of paradoxical organization needs of radical innovation, exposed by Dr Sigvald Harryson, is our theoretical starting-point to analyze company’s ability to find the right equilibrium between exploration and exploitation and absorptive capacity. Further on, we explore the question of absorptive capacity to know how firms identify, acquire, transfer and transform knowledge. Thereafter, the theoretical framework is confronted with empirical data based on a qualitative and abductive approach of two case studies – Tesla and Renault. Interviews with Tesla, located in the Silicon Valley, California, USA, have been conducted. We also met two key employees in Renault’s headquarter, Paris, France. Interpretation and explanation of the data collected is reported in our analysis of each case as well as in the cross-case analysis. A presentation of our recommendations and conclusions conclude our master thesis.

Deste modo, é feito um aprofundamento no processo de aquisição do conhecimento, com a crítica à abordagem atomista e estruturalista, na qual, termos e relações do universo de discurso são especificados a partir de uma relação direta entre signo e significado, de uma concepção onde a expressão supera o conteúdo, e a dimensão espaço prevalece sobre a dimensão tempo no processo de significância. O ambiente de estudo usado é aquele referente às ontologias computacionais, bases de conhecimentos apoiadas sobre redes semânticas e semióticas de frames, concentrado nas fases que vão do entendimento da realidade de um domínio até aquela onde a significância dos termos e relações é tratada a fim de se obter os seus respectivos significados. A pesquisa, na sua fase experimental, dentro do referencial proposto, analisou as etapas de desenvolvimento da ontologia EDXL-RESCUER, contrapondo as hipóteses tratadas na Tese e o processo de desenvolvimento da ontologia, tendo como resultados, uma abordagem crítica e uma fundamentação teórica correspondente, complementada por uma metodologia para Análise de Domínio capaz de atuar numa dimensão pós-estruturalista. O método de pesquisa aplicado é qualitativo, exploratório, envolvendo atualização do estado da arte para os conceitos apresentados, a partir da análise de um projeto de construção de ontologia. / ABSTRACT From the alignment between the Semiotics developed by the philosophers, Charles Sanders Peirce, Gilles Deleuze and Felix Guattari, and the theoretical update for the Domain Analysis activity, based on the assumptions defended by the researchers of the Royal School of Library and Information Science, from Denmark, notably Birger Hjørland and Torkild Thellefsen, this thesis discusses the aspects of cognition to be observed to determine the signified in a universe of discourse concerning at facts of a domain, with the aim of increasing the degree of approximation between the realities, of the facts, understood and signified. In this way, a deepening of the process of knowledge acquisition is made, with the criticism at the atomist and structuralist approach, in which terms and relations of the universe of discourse are specified from a direct relation between sign and signified, a conception where the expression exceeds the content, and the space dimension prevails over the time dimension in the process of significance. The study environment used is that referring to computational ontologies, knowledge bases supported on semantic networks and semiotic frames, focused on the phases that go from the understanding of the reality of a domain to that where the significance of terms and relations is treated in order to obtain their respective signified. The research, in its experimental phase, within the proposed reference, analyzed the stages of development of the EDXL-RESCUER ontology, opposing the hypotheses treated in the thesis and the process of development of the ontology, resulting in a critical approach and a corresponding theoretical foundation, complemented by a methodology for Domain Analysis capable of acting in a post-structuralist dimension. The applied research method is qualitative, exploratory, involving updating the state of the art to the presented concepts, from the analysis of an ontology construction project

Évaluation d'un programme de formation en administration des services de soins infirmiers : le cas du Sénégal

Thiam, Makhouradia 06 1900 (has links)
Partout dans le monde, la formation en gestion des cadres infirmiers est devenue une nécessité. Afin de doter la profession infirmière de chefs de file capables de faire face aux changements, plusieurs pays ont conçu des programmes de formation de deuxième cycle en administration des services de soins infirmiers. Plusieurs programmes sont développés en ce sens dont peu ou prou sont évalués. Plusieurs auteurs croient que l’évaluation de ces programmes permettrait de mieux apprécier l’atteinte des objectifs pédagogiques et ultérieurement, d’améliorer la formation et les pratiques de gestion. Afin de contribuer à ce projet, la présente étude vise à évaluer le programme de formation Administration et enseignement de l'École nationale de développement sanitaire et social (ENDSS) du Sénégal. Cette évaluation prend en compte les points de vue des diplômés, des enseignants, des concepteurs du programme et des directions d’hôpitaux. Il s’agit d’une recherche évaluative de type rétrospectif. Une enquête par questionnaire et par entrevue a été réalisée auprès des diplômés, des enseignants, des concepteurs de programme et des directions d'hôpitaux. Également, des bases de données sur les étudiants finissants entre les années 2003 et 2009 ont été consultées pour recueillir les notes obtenues à l’examen de certification, les effectifs d’admission et d’inscrits et les renseignements sociodémographiques. Cette évaluation porte sur les principales composantes du programme de formation Administration et enseignement de l’ENDSS qui sont examinées à l’aide du modèle systémique d’évaluation de programme éducatif de Stufflebeam (1981) communément appelé modèle CIPP. Les résultats de l’analyse s’appuient sur 70 questionnaires et 37 entrevues. En vue de répondre aux questions de recherche, les données recueillies sont analysées et interprétées à partir d’indicateurs et selon des critères définis. La démarche d’analyse des résultats s’est effectuée en deux étapes. D'abord, les données des questionnaires et des entrevues fournies par les diplômés, les enseignants et les concepteurs ont été analysées ainsi que celles du dossier scolaire des étudiants inscrits au programme. Ensuite, l’examen a porté sur les données des questionnaires recueillies auprès des directions d’hôpitaux. Les avis de tous les répondants sur les améliorations à apporter au programme sont analysés pour rendre compte de leurs recommandations à ce sujet. Tout au long de l’analyse des résultats, les données des questionnaires et des entrevues sont présentées à la fois. Le jugement sur l’efficacité du programme de formation Administration et enseignement de l’ENDSS est établi par l’analyse d’indicateurs reliés aux quatre types d'évaluation proposés par Stufflebeam (1981). Les diplômés et les concepteurs jugent que la formation est adéquate pour l’exercice de la fonction de chef de services des soins infirmiers. Par contre, les enseignants sont très partagés sur cette question, puisque près de la moitié d'entre eux expriment un avis favorable tandis que les autres ont une opinion contraire. Les diplômés apparaissent très partagés par rapport à la cohérence apparente entre les objectifs de stage d’administration hospitalière et les compétences à développer, alors que les enseignants et les concepteurs expriment plus largement une opinion négative. La cohérence entre les notions du module de Management des services de santé et l’exercice de la fonction de chef de services des soins infirmiers est jugée plus forte en ce qui concerne plusieurs notions, par les diplômés, les enseignants et les concepteurs. La majorité des diplômés et des enseignants jugent que la supervision offerte aux étudiants est insatisfaisante. Les diplômés et les enseignants croient que la disponibilité des ressources didactiques à la bibliothèque ne facilite pas les apprentissages. Tandis que les concepteurs, en proportion plus élevée, expriment le même jugement. Les diplômés et les enseignants sont divisés sur la question de l’équilibre entre le nombre d’heures alloué à la théorie et à la formation pratique. Tandis que la majorité des concepteurs croient qu’il n’y a pas d'équilibre entre le nombre d'heures consacré aux cours et à la formation pratique. Les diplômés et les enseignants expriment une opinion très positive sur la qualité des rapports sociaux des étudiants entre eux, avec les enseignants et le personnel administratif. Tandis que les concepteurs ont une opinion plutôt négative à ce sujet. Les diplômés, de même que les enseignants jugent en majorité, que la supervision des stages offerte aux étudiants est insatisfaisante. Ces opinions convergent avec celles de la grande majorité des concepteurs. Selon les diplômés, le travail de groupe, de même que les études de cas sont les méthodes les plus pertinentes dans la formation de chef de service des soins infirmiers. Pour les enseignants et les concepteurs c'est le travail de groupe qui est la méthode la plus pertinente pour faire acquérir des connaissances. Parmi l’ensemble des inscrits, incluant les étudiants sénégalais et étrangers, 104 d’entre eux ont obtenu un diplôme. Subséquemment, seuls 2 étudiants sur les 106 inscrits au programme ont échoué. Les enseignants, les diplômés et les concepteurs sont tous satisfaits du programme de formation Administration et enseignement de l’ENDSS. Les directions d'hôpitaux sont partagées quant à elles, à l’idée selon laquelle les étudiants sont préparés aux fonctions de chef de service des soins infirmiers. En plus, selon la grande majorité des directions le programme de formation ne répond pas à la stratégie de la réforme hospitalière. Elles affirment à l’unanimité qu’elles n’ont pas été associées au processus d’élaboration du programme et sont d’accord que, de manière générale, la formation reçue par le chef de services des soins infirmiers est de qualité. Unanimement, les directions d’hôpitaux jugent que des notions devraient être ajoutées ou améliorées au programme de formation Administration et enseignement de l’ENDSS. L’interprétation des données révèle la complexité qui entoure l’importance de l’équilibre du volume horaire à consacrer à la théorie et à la pratique dans un programme de formation. En plus, les résultats sur les connaissances à acquérir par les diplômés durant la formation montrent un besoin élevé de perfectionnement voire d’enseignement plus poussé du contenu des notions Système d’information sanitaire et Introduction à l’informatique, Introduction au management; Élaboration de programme et Administration hospitalière. Un choix approprié de terrain où l’étudiant pourrait réaliser les objectifs d’apprentissage, une sélection de la période adéquate pour le stage, de même qu’un encadrement signifiant, seraient le gage d’un stage profitable pour l’étudiant. Nous estimons que cette recherche a ouvert des pistes à des perspectives de recherches reliées au développement professionnel des futurs chefs de service des soins infirmiers. Mots clés : évaluation de programme, acquisition de connaissances, développement des compétences, administration des soins infirmiers, programme de deuxième cycle. / All over the world providing a solid education to nurses is a necessity. In order to face the changes, a lot of countries are conceiving postgraduate programs. Around the world, training in management of nursing managers has become a necessity. To provide nursing leaders abilities to cope with change, many countries have developed training graduate programs in educational administration for the nursing services. Several programs that are being developed in this direction are more or less valued. Several authors believe that evaluation of these programs would better appreciate the achievement of educational goals and ultimately, improve training and management practices. To contribute to the development of new skills that will surely meet the training needs and assist in real change, we propose to make this study which aims to evaluate the training program administration and teaching of the National School of Health and Social Development (ENDSS) of Senegal. This assessment takes into account the views of graduates, teachers, program designers and directions of hospitals. This is a retrospective evaluation research type. A questionnaire survey and interview was conducted with graduates, teachers, program designers and management head of the hospitals. Also, databases of students graduating between 2003 and 2009 were consulted to collect the scores on the certification exam, the number of admission and enrollment and demographic information. This assessment focuses on the major components of the training program Administration and teaching of ENDSS are evaluated through the systemic model of evaluation of educational program of Stufflebeam commonly known as CIPP model, which is retained as the reference of this study. The results of the analysis based on 70 questionnaires and 37 interviews. In order to answer the research questions, the data are analyzed and interpreted using indicators and according to defined criteria. The process of analyzing the results was carried out in three stages. First, data from questionnaires and interviews provided by graduates, teachers and program designers are analyzed as well as the academic record of students enrolled in the program. Second, the review focused on questionnaire data collected from directions of hospitals. Finally, the opinions of all respondents on improvements to the program are analyzed to account for their recommendations thereon. Throughout the analysis of results, data from questionnaires and interviews are presented at a time. The verdict on the effectiveness of the training program Administration and teaching of ENDSS is determined by analysis of indicators related to four types of evaluation proposed by Stufflebeam (1981). Graduates and program designers believe that training is adequate for the exercise of the functions of head of nursing services. Consistency between the concepts of the module Management of health services and the exercise of the function of chief of nursing services is considered stronger in respect to several notions, by graduates, teachers and program designers. Graduates, as well as teachers believe in the majority, provided that supervision is inadequate. More than half of graduates and a majority of program designers believe that the material and didactic resources in the library do not facilitate learning the matter. However, students do well in their school leaving examination, particularly in the last four years reviewed. Teachers, graduates and program designers are satisfied with the training program Administration and teaching of ENDSS. Directions of hospitals are shared on the idea that students are prepared for function of chief of nursing services. In addition, as most of the directions of hospitals is not responding to the strategy of the hospital reform. They unanimously say that they were not involved in the process of developing the program and agree that, in general, the training received by the head of nursing services is quality. Unanimously, the directions of hospitals felt that the concepts should be added or improved in the training program administration and teaching-ENDSS. Interpretation of the data reveals the complexity surrounding the importance of balancing the number of hours to devote to the theory and practice in a training program. In addition, results on knowledge gain express a high need for development of further education or the content of notions Health Information System and Introduction to Computers, Introduction to Management, Program elaboration and Hospital administration. An appropriate choice of land where the student could achieve the learning objectives, a selection of the appropriate period for the course, and a signifier coaching, would be a profitable course for the student. We believe that this research has opened avenues for research perspectives related to professional development of future leaders of the nursing department. Keywords: Program evaluation, acquisition of knowledge, development of the competence-nursing management-master degree formation program.

To contribute to the development of new skills that will surely meet the training needs and assist in real change, we propose to make this study which aims to evaluate the training program administration and teaching of the National School of Health and Social Development (ENDSS) of Senegal. This assessment takes into account the views of graduates, teachers, program designers and directions of hospitals. This is a retrospective evaluation research type. A questionnaire survey and interview was conducted with graduates, teachers, program designers and management head of the hospitals. Also, databases of students graduating between 2003 and 2009 were consulted to collect the scores on the certification exam, the number of admission and enrollment and demographic information. This assessment focuses on the major components of the training program Administration and teaching of ENDSS are evaluated through the systemic model of evaluation of educational program of Stufflebeam commonly known as CIPP model, which is retained as the reference of this study. The results of the analysis based on 70 questionnaires and 37 interviews. In order to answer the research questions, the data are analyzed and interpreted using indicators and according to defined criteria. The process of analyzing the results was carried out in three stages. First, data from questionnaires and interviews provided by graduates, teachers and program designers are analyzed as well as the academic record of students enrolled in the program. Second, the review focused on questionnaire data collected from directions of hospitals. Finally, the opinions of all respondents on improvements to the program are analyzed to account for their recommendations thereon. Throughout the analysis of results, data from questionnaires and interviews are presented at a time. The verdict on the effectiveness of the training program Administration and teaching of ENDSS is determined by analysis of indicators related to four types of evaluation proposed by Stufflebeam (1981). Graduates and program designers believe that training is adequate for the exercise of the functions of head of nursing services. Consistency between the concepts of the module Management of health services and the exercise of the function of chief of nursing services is considered stronger in respect to several notions, by graduates, teachers and program designers. Graduates, as well as teachers believe in the majority, provided that supervision is inadequate. More than half of graduates and a majority of program designers believe that the material and didactic resources in the library do not facilitate learning the matter. However, students do well in their school leaving examination, particularly in the last four years reviewed. Teachers, graduates and program designers are satisfied with the training program Administration and teaching of ENDSS. Directions of hospitals are shared on the idea that students are prepared for function of chief of nursing services. In addition, as most of the directions of hospitals is not responding to the strategy of the hospital reform. They unanimously say that they were not involved in the process of developing the program and agree that, in general, the training received by the head of nursing services is quality. Unanimously, the directions of hospitals felt that the concepts should be added or improved in the training program administration and teaching-ENDSS. Interpretation of the data reveals the complexity surrounding the importance of balancing the number of hours to devote to the theory and practice in a training program. In addition, results on knowledge gain express a high need for development of further education or the content of notions Health Information System and Introduction to Computers, Introduction to Management, Program elaboration and Hospital administration. An appropriate choice of land where the student could achieve the learning objectives, a selection of the appropriate period for the course, and a signifier coaching, would be a profitable course for the student. We believe that this research has opened avenues for research perspectives related to professional development of future leaders of the nursing department.
