Is There a Relationship Between School Principals' Learning Agility and Decision-Making Styles? The Effect of Gender as a Moderating Factor
Authors: Yazıcı Şebnem
Published: February 2024

Leaders with ever-evolving learning agility demonstrate high performance by making quick and better decisions in the face of uncertain situations. This study aimed to determine the relationship between school principals' learning agility and decision-making styles and the moderating role of gender in this relationship. The research is carried out according to the relational survey model. SPSS Process Macro software was used to examine the regulatory role. The study group for the research consists of 383 school principals and vice principals working in Istanbul. According to the findings, the highest correlation was found between learning agility and rational decision-making style. Again, the results of the research concluded that learning agility has a positive effect with an intuitive, dependent decision-making style and a negative effect with an avoidant decision-making style. In addition, the moderating role of gender was determined between learning agility and avoidant decision-making style.

Authors: Arslan Yaser , Polat Soner , Gürler Meriç , Bulut İbrahim
Published: February 2024

This study aims to reveal school principals’ unethical behaviours based on teachers’ perceptions within schools, to reveal the causes for these behaviours and recommendations to prevent them. An interpretive qualitative approach was applied. Data were gathered via face-to-face interviews conducted with 17 public school teachers in Kocaeli Province of Turkey. The data was examined through content analysis technique. The participants listed the unethical behaviours of school principals in seven different themes as discrimination, favouritism, violation of the rules of courtesy, misconduct, mobbing and pressure, neglect of duty, and other behaviours. The causes of unethical behaviours of school principals were stated as the factors related to administrative qualifications, personal factors, institutional factors, the factors related to teachers, and environmental factors. To prevent unethical behaviours of school principals, the participants suggested some training activities as post-graduate education in educational administration and psychological guidance to school principals. They also suggested some activities to increase the professional development levels and human relations competences of school principals. It was also recommended to make some legal regulations regarding the appointment, assignment issues, reward, rotation, and supervision of administrators.  In addition to these suggestions, it was recommended to organize social activities for preventing unethical behaviours of school principals.Click or tap here to enter text.

Published: February 2024

The electric power distribution system is a process for distributing electricity from a 150 kV electric power transmission system to consumers, both 20 kV consumers and 380/220 V consumers. The problem that often occurs in the electric power distribution system at PT.X is load imbalance due to the different consumption power on each phase, so a neutral current appears. The current flowing in the neutral phase will cause power losses. Based on these problems, a load balancing device was made for a three-phase network with the standard SPLN No. 17 of 2014, namely the magnitude of the value of the current imbalance between the phases may not exceed 25%. This tool is also equipped with an overcurrent protection system and a tapping phase limitation system to support the performance of the load-balancing device on a three-phase network. The method used is the Naive Bayes method. The naïve Bayes method calculates the current parameters in the R, S, T, and N phases. The classification results will be used as a reference for activating the tapping phase system and the protection system. This system uses Internet of Things technology to monitor neutral current, current and voltage values in phases R, S and T, and power loss values. Based on the test results, when there is an imbalance of 30.20%, a neutral current of 1.20A appears, causing a power loss of 0.17W. After the tapping phase is carried out, the percentage of unbalance is reduced to 12.20%, the neutral current is 0.45A, and the power losses are 0.02W.

Published: February 2024

Instrumentation and Instrumentalization of The Video Document in FFL Class: Example of a didactic sequence

The primary objective of the research is to showcase, by employing a didacticization instance involving an authentic video document, the considerable significance, and the valuable contributions of the theory of instrumental genesis in comprehending and analyzing this intricate process. This study accurately delineates the stages involved in didacticization, emphasizing that it results from a dual-faceted process of instrumentalization and instrumentation. Within the realm of instrumentalization, the didactician strategically appropriates the video document for didactic purposes by activating their cognitive schemas. This transformative act turns the video into an instrument – a didactic sequence laden with the teaching strategies envisioned by the designer. Various factors stimulate the activation of these schemas within the designer's strategic repertoire, including age, didactic representations, experiential background, and personal history. The intricate interplay of these elements shapes the didacticization process, highlighting the dynamic nature of instructional design. Simultaneously, the research delves into the instrumentation process, which is contingent upon the inherent nature and content of the video document, as well as the educational level and sociocultural characteristics of the learners. This dual-process framework sheds light on the multifaceted dimensions of didacticization, encompassing both the cognitive processes of the didactician and the contextual elements influencing the instructional material. By elucidating these two interconnected processes, the research aims to raise awareness among didacticians, fostering introspection and self-evaluation for designers of didactic sequences utilizing video support. In an era marked by the diversification and modernization of methods for creating and disseminating video materials, the study posits that its analytical approach to the process of instrumental genesis remains pertinent and applicable, even in the context of contemporary distribution formats such as videos generated by artificial intelligence. Moreover, the research contends that within the domain of FFL (French as a Foreign Language) didactics, this theoretical framework can be harnessed to scrutinize the learner's assimilation process of the didactic sequence and the ensuing knowledge acquisition after the completion of the instructional activity. In essence, the research underscores the enduring relevance and adaptability of the theory of instrumental genesis in the evolving landscape of instructional design and technology.
Ne rien avoir ou ne rien être, au gré des variations : une analyse de l’œuvre Nous qui n’étions rien de Madeleine Thien (trad. Catherine Leroux) en tant que « nouveau » roman historique
Authors: Legault-Beauregard Myriam
Published: February 2024

Various Variations from Having Nothing to Being Nothing, an Analysis of Madeleine Thien’s Do Not Say We Have Nothing (and its French Version) as a “New” Historical Novel

Traditionally, historical novels have been subjected to various negative preconceptions and have often been categorized as lowbrow. Despite their popular and commercial success, authors of such novels rarely win prestigious literary awards. However, 'Do Not Say We Have Nothing,' a historical novel by Madeleine Thien published in 2016, was critically acclaimed and received high praise, winning two major Canadian prizes— the Scotiabank Giller Prize and the Governor General’s Literary Award for Fiction. It was also shortlisted for the Man Booker Prize. Its French translation, 'Nous qui n’étions rien,' also gained significant recognition, as Catherine Leroux, Thien’s translator, was awarded a Governor General’s Literary Award for the French version in 2019. The novel has been translated into thirteen other languages, another significant sign of consecration. In this paper, two questions will be explored. Firstly: what characteristics of 'Do Not Say We Have Nothing' (and of its French translation 'Nous qui n’étions rien') explain its critical success? Secondly: do these characteristics match those of the 'new' historical novel? 'New' historical novels are here understood as well-documented, complex, and intertextual works that started to appear in the 1980s and tend to break away from the tradition of historical novels based on bewildering action and detailed descriptions, often written in plain language. A general finding is that the appreciations of the juries of two important English-language literary prizes in Canada, as well as many reviews published in different journals and magazines, mention that the book’s complexity and the reflections it prompts are two major positive aspects of the novel. As for the writing itself, whereas Thien’s style has been deemed 'simple,' consistent with traditional historical novels, Leroux’s version does not appear to be as accessible. Nevertheless, it was lauded by critics and the Governor General’s Literary Awards jury. It is worth asking if this more formal and literary style was not seen as an additional strength by the French institution and reviewers. A brief analysis of fiction works winning major prizes in Canada in the years prior to and following 'Do Not Say We Have Nothing' has also been conducted and seems to indicate that historical novels tend to win more prizes in English Canada than in French Canada.
Quelques repères d’une traductologie productive

A Few Guidelines for Productive Translation Studies 

The paper is based on the concept of “productive Translation Studies”, understood as a science of translation anchored in the present and designed to help both translators and translation scholars. To provide some directions for productive Translation Studies, the paper starts with a diachronic analysis of the discipline. The field acquired its autonomy in the 80s when it was no longer considered a branch of linguistics. Nevertheless, translation scholars have manifested some hesitations in the past and there are aspects to be rectified. To establish the aim and methodology of the discipline, a clear definition of translation (both as a process and as a product) is needed. In addition, the nature of Translation Studies should be discussed: whether they are a scientific field or a branch of humanities and to what extent they are interdisciplinary. This historical overview is also used to discuss the “ages” of Translation Studies, as defined by Jean-René Ladmiral. Thus, prescriptive Translation Studies fix some general principles of a “good” translation and have a theoretical nature; descriptive Translation Studies rely on comparative and contrastive methods, analysing translation as a product; inductive Translation Studies aim at discovering what happens in the translator’s mind and are not developed yet; productive Translation Studies are connected to the reality of the market and provide methodological principles to translators and translation scholars to facilitate their work. In the final part of the paper, the author describes several strategies to be followed by contemporary Translation Studies. One step is to put an end to the scientific hesitations of the past and to have a coherent approach. Then, the debate concerning translation dichotomies (such as the possibility or impossibility of translation, faithfulness, and unfaithfulness in translation, translating form or translating meaning) should be left behind because it is unproductive. Connecting theory and practice and putting in contact with translators and translation scholars is another objective. Translation critics should give up the sacralization of the source text: in fact, any approach should put the translator on center stage to empower him/her. A double approach – psychological and sociological – may be needed to understand the translator’s choices: the psychological approach is based on the Theory of Sense, while the sociological analysis takes into consideration the constraints of the market. New technologies should become a topic of research. Also, translation studies should be rendered into various languages to disseminate new ideas and trends.
Aspects innovants des métonymies dans le discours quotidien de Brazzavillois
Authors: Elongo Arsène

Innovative Aspects of Metonymies in Brazzavillois' Everyday Discourse

This article examines the innovative aspects of metonymies in the everyday speech of Brazzavillois residents, who live in an environment influenced by both the French language and local languages. The primary goal of the study is to discern the network of metonymies in oral communication and to identify the stylistic reasons for their expressive use in Brazzaville French.The chosen methodology involves compiling a corpus sourced from recordings, posters, and various daily uses related to the professional and linguistic habits of the Brazzaville community. Data selection criteria prioritize relevance and qualitative value. Utilizing this corpus, we applied the linguistic components criteria and the implicit approach developed by Catherine Kerbrat-Orecchioni (1998), along with the ellipsis approach proposed by Michel Le Guern (1973). This application aims to elucidate the discursive implications of metonymy in everyday conversation, seeking to verify how metonymic expressions illuminate the subjectivity, culture, and language proficiency of the speaker. Furthermore, metonymies in oral communication hold implicit value as they allow for the examination of undisclosed informational content omitted by the speaker through ellipses. The ellipsis approach aids in analyzing metonymy as a process that accentuates the container, with the content being elliptically placed by the speaker based on communication needs, intending to magnify a salient element of metonymic adjacency. Our anticipated results are expected to confirm that metonymy actively contributes to the semantic innovation of French in the Brazzaville context. This is attributed to its discursive techniques, particularly the containing/content relationship, which remains a decisive factor in semantic evolution and polysemy. Additionally, metonymy, being a figure of everyday life, permeates various domains such as family, professional settings, religious language, and even in journalism. It is commonly employed in familiar discourse, the realm of transportation, educational institutions, and commercial communication. This usage often arises from the application of verbs like 'pay' and 'buy,' where the content is replaced by the container (e.g., the bottle replaces the gas, and the invoice replaces the company). In conclusion, our findings indicate that metonymy in oral communication is not merely a tool for aesthetic language creation; rather, it emerges as a phenomenon driving linguistic innovation. It adds new layers of meaning to verbs like 'buy' and 'pay' within the specific context of Brazzaville, contributing to a diatopic variation of French in Africa.
L’Adjectif qualificatif : étude Contrastive en Français et en Arabe
Authors: Samir Fekry Christina
Published: February 2024

The Adjective: Contrastive Study in French and in Arabic

The lexical morpheme, variable in gender and number through linguistic agreement (AGR) or declension, holds a crucial position in the two inflected languages under examination: Arabic, an Afro-Asiatic language of the Semitic family, and French, a Romance language with synthetic characteristics. This study draws inspiration from the works of eminent linguists, including Blachère and Gaudefroy-Demombynes (1975), Béchade (1994), Al-Hakkak (1996), and others. It also incorporates insights from contrastive studies, a linguistic branch that emerged in the 1950s to enhance the teaching and learning of foreign languages by addressing language interference through the exploration of inter-linguistic structural differences. This study, designed to assist learners and translators in comprehending the affinities and deviations between French and Arabic, delves into the use of adjectives in context. It particularly focuses on the qualifying adjective as a discourse component falling within the class of apparent nouns, in contrast to implicit nouns. This lemma or lexical unit serves to describe, characterize, specify, and indicate certain properties of animate or inanimate beings. It represents the grammatical class bestowing identity upon a person, animal, or object, attaching a positive, negative, or neutral label that imparts a value judgment. In French, the qualifying adjective encompasses various types, including relational, nominal, compound, verbal, and syntagmatic. In Arabic, it takes on verbal and denominative forms, assimilated to the verb. Morphologically, French features prefixed, suffixed, and unsuffixed adjectives, while Arabic presents adjectives crafted from a multitude of forms. Regardless of the linguistic context, the qualifying adjective, matching in gender and number the noun or pronoun to which it refers, can assume multiple functions within morphosyntactic structures. It can act as an epithet, whether anteposed or postposed, with graphic, phonic, strict, or floating agreement or concord (instances of inflection), serve as an attribute linked to the subject by a copular verb, or be affixed. Additionally, qualifying adjectives can convey varying degrees of intensity using phrasal adverbs or adverbs of comparison.
Syntaxe et signifiance de la parole conative dans la poésie Africaine Francophone

Syntax and Meaning of Conative Speech in Francophone African Poetry

For those with an interest in African poetry, particularly Francophone poetry, several distinctive features underlie its originality and authenticity. These encompass rhythm, symbolism, and poetic imagery, serving as fundamental markers of the dominant poetic function within poetic discourse. These elements are inevitable considerations in any analysis, be it poetic or stylistic, of literary texts. Poetry in Africa, and conceivably beyond, undoubtedly serves a pragmatic, or more precisely, pragma-enunciative function, often obscured and overshadowed by the omnipotent poetic function—the quintessential literary function. In practical terms, the pragma-enunciative function of a poetic text is revealed through its conative nature. Essentially, poetry is a form of discourse inherently directed towards otherness, intended for an audience. Even when masquerading as an introspective work originating from the soul, ostensibly focused inward to express emotions in a context of heightened lyricism, poetry is fundamentally a conative expression. This characteristic is intrinsic to African poetry, with conative speech representing an indispensable aspect that may even be considered the ultimate purpose of the unavoidable poetic function of language. It is undeniable that elements such as rhythm, symbol, and poetic imagery, along with other aesthetic devices in verbal creation, serve as means of captivating and elevating the discourse, enabling the poet to construct a message aimed at captivating and stirring the reader. Nearly every aspect of the poem contributes to transforming it into a communication from self to other, essentially constituting second-person poetry. Conative speech, in the context of poetry, also assumes an incantatory function, a concept championed by Roman Jakobson, involving the conversion of an absent or inanimate "third person" into the recipient of a conative message. In the realm of French-speaking African poetry, conative speech holds literary, pragmatic, communicative, psychological, and cultural significance, among other dimensions. It is an indispensable component of African poetry, enhancing its illocutionary or even perlocutionary nature. Consequently, a nuanced examination of the syntax of this speech, especially its unconventional or unexpected elements

The Image of The Arab in Netflix Series Messiah: Dialogical analysis

This study falls within the purview of discourse analysis and seeks to propose nuanced interpretations regarding the portrayal of Arabs in Hollywood cinema. Initially characterized by negative stereotypes, this image undergoes a partial rehabilitation in the Netflix series Messiah. The investigation aims to scrutinize both representations by analyzing specific sequences from the series, which premiered on the Netflix platform on January 1, 2020. The series revolves around the return of the Messiah, linked to eschatology, portraying him as a savior in conflict zones addressing desperate people in Arabic, notably in Syria, West Bank, and the Al-Aqsa Mosque. The doctrinal theme of the Messiah's return sparks significant impact in spirituality and theology, eliciting diverse discussions and interpretations. Employing a qualitative approach rooted in the principles of nominational dialogism, this study identifies stereotypical representations often ingrained in Hollywood's conventional beliefs. It achieves this by scrutinizing parameters of categorization and enunciation in interactions involving Arab characters such as Jibril Hassan, Samer, Sheikh Zaid, the Imam, and others.The study results shed light on two contrasting images of Arabs. Firstly, Sheikh Zaid embodies the stereotype of an extremist and violent Arab, perpetuating long- standing clichés. Secondly, Jibril Hassan represents the image of a vulnerable and easily manipulable Arab, adding a layer of complexity to the overall representation. By delving into these subtleties, this research seeks to challenge and transcend the conventional depictions of Arabs in Hollywood cinema. Its objective is to foster a deeper understanding of the intricacies associated with these characters, moving beyond the limiting and one-dimensional portrayals often disseminated by mainstream media. The ultimate aspiration is to contribute meaningfully to the ongoing dialogue regarding the representation of diverse cultures and identities in popular entertainment, such as Hollywood, which wields significant influence over public perceptions. Drawing on Jullien's perspective on alterity, the study advocates understanding others through their unique viewpoints rather than imposing our own. Applied to Hollywood's portrayal of Arabs, this approach encourages a shift beyond stereotypes toward a nuanced appreciation of Arab identity and cultural richness. Such an approach promotes deeper cultural empathy and challenges prevailing, simplistic narratives in global cinema and media.
Transitivity System and Ideological Framing in News Headlines Reporting Gender-based Violence in Nigeria
Authors: Akindeji Akinmusuyi Samuel
Published: February 2024

Gender-based violence, encompassing domestic abuse, sexual assault, and femicide, remains an enduring and widespread issue in Nigeria. This study aims to examine the transitivity system and ideology present in news headlines reporting gender-based violence in Nigeria. While adopting Halliday and Matthiessen’s (2014) Ideational Metafunction of Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL) as the theoretical framework, the study uses content analysis method which includes both qualitative and quantitative approaches in the analysis of the data. 20 news headlines each published between May and August, 2022 on the official websites of two prominent mainstream media in Nigeria – The Punch and Nigerian Tribune – are purposively selected for this study, making a total of 40 news headlines. The analysis of transitivity system in The Punch online news revealed that thirty (30) processes are employed in the twenty (20) news headlines depicting crime committed against women in Nigeria selected from the newspaper. Twenty-nine (96.7%) of these processes are material process, while one (3.3%) is behavioural process. The prevailing occurrence of material process is also evident in the news headlines selected from Nigerian Tribune. In Nigerian Tribune, twenty-five (25) processes are deployed across the twenty (20) selected news headlines; material process appears twenty-four times (96%), while verbal process appears only once (4%). The dominant use of material process in the selected news headlines permits both media houses – The Punch and Nigerian Tribune – to identify and describe various physical and violent actions that were taken against Nigerian women, and also to identify actions taken by the law enforcement agencies to ensure justice for the victims of crime. The analysis further highlighted a representation of gender roles and power dynamics by revealing that all the material processes which are related to violence, such as ‘rape’, ‘shot’, ‘abducts’, ‘kills’, and ‘punches’, are linked with the male. Hence, men are portrayed as perpetrators of violent crimes while women are represented as the victims; women are portrayed as vulnerable, gang-raped, raped, shot, killed and stabbed. It was also discovered that women, along with related entities, are often used in news headlines to perform the participant role of goal, thereby implying an ideological representation that positions women as susceptible targets of violent crimes. This study therefore concludes that Nigerian media outlets primarily deploy material processes and goal participant roles of the transitivity system to present an amplified and sensational portrayal of various physical and aggressive actions inflicted upon women and young girls in Nigeria.

Gender-based violence, which includes domestic abuse, sexual assault, and femicide, persists as a pervasive issue in Nigeria. This study aims to investigate the transitivity system and the embedded ideology in news headlines reporting instances of gender-based violence in the country. Grounded in Halliday and Matthiessen’s (2014) Ideational Metafunction of Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL), the research employs a content analysis method, incorporating both qualitative and quantitative approaches to analyze data. A purposive selection of 20 news headlines from each of two prominent mainstream Nigerian media outlets, The Punch and Nigerian Tribune, published between May and August 2022, constitutes the dataset, totalling 40 news headlines. The analysis of the transitivity system in The Punch online news reveals the utilization of thirty (30) processes in the selected twenty (20) news headlines portraying crimes against women in Nigeria. Notably, twenty-nine (96.7%) of these processes are material, with the remaining one (3.3%) being behavioural. The prevalence of material processes is similarly reflected in the news headlines from the Nigerian Tribune, where twenty-five (25) processes are observed across the selected twenty (20) headlines. Here, material processes constitute twenty-four instances (96%), while verbal processes appear only once (4%). The consistent use of material processes allows both media houses – The Punch and Nigerian Tribune – to articulate various physical and violent actions perpetrated against Nigerian women, as well as actions taken by law enforcement agencies to seek justice for the victims. The analysis further uncovers a representation of gender roles and power dynamics, highlighting that all material processes related to violence, such as ‘rape’, ‘shot’, ‘abducts’, ‘kills’, and ‘punches’, are associated with males. Consequently, men are portrayed as the perpetrators of violent crimes, while women are depicted as the victims—vulnerable, subject to gang rape, rape, shooting, killing, and stabbing. Additionally, the study reveals that women, along with related entities, are frequently assigned the participant role of the goal in news headlines, implying an ideological representation that positions women as susceptible targets of violent crimes. In conclusion, this study asserts that Nigerian media outlets predominantly utilize material processes and assign goal participant roles within the transitivity system to present an amplified and sensational portrayal of various physical and aggressive actions inflicted upon women and young girls in Nigeria.
Savoirs de référence : quelle transposition dans les contenus d’enseignement-apprentissage du FLE au secondaire algérien ?

Reference Knowledge: What transposition in the teaching-learning contents of FLE to Algerian Secondary School?

To secure inclusion in FLE (French as a Foreign Language) school textbooks for secondary education, the scholarly knowledge embedded in the textual approach undergoes a dual process of transposition. Initially, this reference knowledge is externally transposed into curriculum material designed for teaching. This external transposition is succeeded by an internal transposition, where the transposed content becomes the subject of learning. This article aims to scrutinize the didactic transposition process of this knowledge. By tracking its integration into the teaching-learning materials of this educational cycle (curricula and textbooks), the study seeks to assess how the knowledge is valued and employed to foster authentic reading experiences. The investigation primarily involves examining the progression of this knowledge through synoptic tables and glossaries (1st, 2nd, and 3rd AS), coupled with an analysis of questions presented in the margins of the assigned texts. This dual approach facilitates a comprehensive understanding of how this knowledge is formulated and legitimized. A secondary objective is to gauge any disparities between the theoretical principles of transposition and their actual application in curriculum and textbook development. The study's findings shed light on the destiny of this reference knowledge and the constraints imposed by certain pieces of information on the construction of text meaning. Some knowledge, owing to its sheer volume, appears to have garnered more assured recognition, tending to stabilize effectively in practice. Conversely, the impact of other knowledge, derived from the same reference theories, remains ambiguous and does not consistently contribute to shaping the meaning of texts. Their current utilization suggests a marked simplification and resultant impoverishment during reading activities, reducing them to mechanical processes focused on a few textual elements. This often occurs without engaging in a critical examination of the textual content and the formulation of interpretations. Consequently, the study advocates a reassessment of the openness championed by this textual approach. It suggests reconsidering the legitimacy granted to various methods of accessing texts, emphasizing the need for a more nuanced and articulated approach.

Innovating to Learn the Foreign Language: Translating digital into didactic gestures via platforms

Information and Communication Technologies for Information (ICT) play a crucial role in language learning within the constructivist didactic context. This perspective encompasses not only learning itself but also acquiring the ability to learn, interact, and train effectively. The Ecole Normale Supérieure de Constantine has actively collaborated with educational and ministerial units, engaging in program restructuring to integrate ICT within a constructivist pedagogical framework. In this approach, learning is viewed as a socially situated phenomenon, and the interaction between the instructor and the learner is considered a social aspect of both knowledge and skill acquisition in the teaching/learning process. The utilization of ICT in higher education is gaining increasing attention. This study focuses on online training systems that bring together sixty teachers who have undergone ICT training over various periods. These initiatives aim to reshape traditional teaching practices and teacher behaviours, fostering a path towards "learning to learn" that diverges from conventional approaches. To assess the reality on the ground and understand ongoing educational projects that integrate ICT, the study delves into the collective efforts within the Ecole Normale Supérieure of Constantine. Conducted as part of teacher training in ICT usage, the study investigates the integration of ICT into face-to-face teaching through remote platforms, exemplified by making online courses available on the Moodle platform. The primary objective is to incorporate ICT into students' training programs through innovative practices, emphasizing the development of technological skills such as PowerPoint usage, document sharing, blog creation, forum participation, and utilization of the platform's messaging system. As both a trainer and trainee, having participated in various ICT programs, I find it imperative to analyze the teacher training process to assess the effectiveness of implemented innovations. Teachers expressed satisfaction with the opportunity to participate in the training program, highlighting the development of previously unfamiliar technological skills. Innovation in ICT is directly associated with positive changes in learning outcomes, introducing socio- pedagogical modes of interaction that redefine the roles of both teachers and students. This shift enables them to adeptly appropriate new technological tools, emphasizing the transformative impact of ICT in the educational landscape.

The Concept Map: A Support for Learning Transfer

Based on the concept mapping technique, our research endeavors to experimentally address the challenges encountered by candidates taking the Baccalaureate exam, specifically related to their ability to employ interdisciplinary knowledge while inferentially processing texts in French as a foreign language (FLE). The study intersects two disciplines: French as a Foreign Language (FLE) and History courses in the first language (L1). Employing a three-phase action research approach—commencing with a pre-test involving a text recall task, followed by collaborative concept map design using the PREP technique (Langer, 1982-1984) as a metacognitive experience, and concluding with a post-test to validate our approach—we aim to surpass the limited capacity of working memory and facilitate in-depth processing of textual information. By incorporating the concept map into our experimental approach, we aim to simulate "reflection on cognition," aligning with the training in internal monitoring—a central goal in any educational institution. Our initiative addresses linguistic challenges arising from the mental transition between the first language (L1) and the second language (L2), with a particular focus on challenges associated with mental translation. Situated within a plurilingual context involving Classical Arabic (L1) and the second language, French (FLF), we seek to visualize the linguistic interactions occurring during information processing through schematic organization and hierarchization. Resulted revealed that the use of concept maps substantially supports strategies related to analogical reasoning and high-level text processing. This approach significantly enhances learners' lexical repertoire by shaping organizational strategies and facilitating the storage of conceptual knowledge, streamlining retrieval processes. While concept maps undeniably bolster language skills, our research goes beyond this acknowledgement. It not only highlights the positive impact of integrating concept maps for language skill improvement but also emphasizes the untapped potential for even greater significance and promise. The instructional intervention has shed light on specific elements educators should consider to optimize outcomes. As a tool for facilitating transfer learning, the concept map has proven significant, albeit not without some negative transfers. Adjusting teaching strategies based on individual student needs and characteristics is essential to harness the full potential of this approach.
