Nestedness of small mammal assemblages and role of indicator species in isolated marshland habitats
Authors: Horváth Győző , Herczeg Róbert , Tamási Kitti , Sali Nikolett
Published: April 2023

The concept of nestedness has important role in community ecology of fragmented habitats that measures the order in presence-absence matrices of species in different communities, and the vulnerability of species to habitat change can be quantified. We have been examining the composition of small mammal assemblages of Kis-Balaton Landscape Protection Area since 1999 within the framework of Hungarian Biodiversity Monitoring System Programme. Our basic question was how much the species turnover processes and the water-level increase following bountiful precipitation as a natural disturbance predominate in directing the composition of small mammal assemblages and in the nestedness pattern in human disturbed habitat patches. Our investigation was based on nestedness analysis and the IndVal method. The results of nestedness analysis showed that the small mammal assemblages of the isolated Kis-Balaton marshland habitat patches are ordered contrary to the random pattern and showed nested pattern. The endangered habitat-specialist root vole appeared as an asymmetrical indicator species regarding its optimal habitat patch, and we evaluated it as an idiosyncratic species in the nestedness analysis. These results proved admittedly that the root vole – as a habitat specialist species – is very sensitive to habitat fragmentation and human disturbance, so the pattern of its presence influences considerably the nestedness of small mammal assemblages of the examined marshlands.

Transitional communities of the Villány Mts were investigated. The associations Inulo spiraeifoliaeBrometum pannonici, Festuco rupicolae-Arrhenatheretum, Helleboro odori-Spiraeetum mediae and Inulo spiraeifoliae-Quercetum pubescentis were analysed in the context of north-south facing vegetation gradients. Their species composition and ecological conditions as well as their position along the gradient were evaluated in relation to the nearby communities. We found that the four communities studied not only occupy a transitional position in the topographical space, but also their species composition and ecological conditions seem to be transitional.

Lacks, Necessities and Wants of Prospective English Teachers in ELT Departments: A Needs Analysis and Sustainability
Authors: Gürler İsmail , Konca Mustafa Yavuz
Published: April 2023

This study aims to determine the needs of prospective English teachers in ELT departments throughout Turkey within three dimensions as lacks, necessities and wants from the perspectives of both insiders and outsiders. In the light of Target Situation Analysis (TSA), qualitative research design was administered to reach more detailed and in-depth conclusions with the help of open-ended interview questions. In order to generalize the results of the study, and do a comprehensive needs analysis, all teacher trainers and seniors in ELT departments were contacted via internet or face to face. Totally, 14 state and foundation universities throughout Turkey, 41 teacher trainers whose rankings varies from lecturer to professor, and 85 prospective English teachers attending the last year of their education took part in this study. The collected qualitative data by online, printed forms and interview recordings were analyzed by coding and categorizing. It can be concluded according to the findings that from the outsiders’ perspective, lacks are mainly clustered around four titles as more practice, prospective teachers’ qualifications, extrinsic and intrinsic needs. There are four main necessities put forward by insiders as the exterior, interior, practical and occupational necessities. The results also reveal that only 23 percent of the prospective teachers feel themselves ready to teach: however, the rest thought vice versa. To feel ready to teach, they need some supports under the title of “wants” as individual, pedagogical, linguistic and structural support.

Published: April 2023

The aim of the study is to examine and determine the thoughts of recycling of the situations (gender, grade level, educational status of parents) that affect the recycling attitudes of secondary school students. Explanatory design has been preferred among the mixed method research designs in which both quantitative and qualitative approaches are used together in the research. The study group of the quantitative part of the research consists of 700 students studying in secondary schools and the study group of the qualitative part consists of 30 students identified as selected. The data of the research were obtained with the “Recycling Scale” and “Image Form”. In order to compare the scale scores related to gender variable, Whitney U Test was used; in order to compare the scale scores related to grade level, maternal education and paternal education status variables, Kruskal Wallis Test was used. The qualitative data obtained from the students’ drawings were analyzed by content analysis. According to the results obtained from the research, students’ attitudes towards recycling are high in a positive way; it has been determined that there is no difference according to gender and education level of their mothers. It has been determined that there is a difference in the attitudes of the students towards recycling according to the grade level and educational status of their fathers. It is seen that students include elements such as people, trees, garbage, factory, cloud and garbage boxes in the paintings related to recycling. In this context, it can be said that student perceptions about recycling include recycling components.
Plenty to Come: Making Sense of Correia & Rosenkranz’s Growing Block
Authors: Deng Natalja
Published: April 2023

Fabrice Correia and Sven Rosenkranz’s book Nothing to Come: a Defence of the Growing Block Theory of Time offers an incredibly rich and skillful defense of the growing block theory (GBT), a view of time that arguably has much intuitive appeal, and which has been under attack from many sides. Nonetheless, I have to report that the book’s tense-logical course of treatment has not worked for me; I still struggle with making sense of the GBT. This article begins by drawing out some implications of the book’s set up. First, the notion of existence in play here is not interpretable on the basis of ordinary usage. Second, it would be a mistake to take the tense-logical framework to have any metaphysical significance. I then articulate two main worries about their version of the GBT. The first worry takes a familiar shape: it is just hard to see how their view is dynamic in the relevant sense. The second worry is that the topic seems to have been changed. C&R’s logical system helps itself to key notions whose intended interpretation includes a solution to every metaphysical puzzle about the GBT, so that these puzzles are not so much addressed as enshrined in a formal system. That is, their view seems to answer the question of how language should behave, if the GBT were (somehow) true.
Times, Locations and the Epistemic Objection
Authors: Miller Kristie
Published: April 2023

Very roughly, the epistemic objection to the growing block theory (GBT) says that according to that theory there are many past times at which persons falsely believe they are present. Since there is nothing subjectively distinguishable about a situation in which one truly believes one is present, from a situation in which one falsely believes one is present, the GBT is a theory on which we cannot know that we are present. In their articulation and defence of the GBT, Correia and Rosenkranz (C&R) argue that the epistemic objection fails miserably. In what follows I try to unpack their response to the objection, and locate it amongst others. Along the way I flag some confusions I have about how we are to think about the GBT as articulated by C&R.

Published: April 2023

This paper aims to collect all the necessary information and conclusions which deal with the anti-inflammatory drugs within the scope of teeth bleaching, and which are rooted in scientific research. It is a well-known fact that the teeth whiteners / bleachers are at the same time a very aggressive agents, which opened up the question of the safety of their application. The most frequently applied bleaching agents are the hydrogen-peroxide (H2O2) and carbim peroxide (CH6N2O3), therefore this paper will be based on the research which included these two agents. The first studies were directed towards investigating the outcome / impact on the enamel, i.e. if there is direct surface damage of the enamel layer after the use of such agents. However, bearing in mind that the clinical practice has shown that in a number of cases there arises the sensitivity of teeth in the form of painful sensation after the bleaching treatment, some researches were directed towards the estimation of the permeability of the enamel and dentin for the bleaching agent, and later the effect on the pulp tissue. Along with the existing proof about the irritability of these agents to the pulp tissue, the modern research have the idea of looking into the effects of the anti-inflamatory drugs as the accompanying and prevention therapy of any of the irreversible damage of the pulp. On one hand the application of these drugs can reduce the sensitivity and painfulness of the teeth, which makes the intervention pleasant for the patient, but on the other hand the intervention becomes completely justifiable from the aspect of safety and the basic principle primum non nocere. The anti-inflammatory drugs which will be the topic of this study are H hydrocortisone, acetaminophen, ipobruphen and etodolac. Taking into consideration the vasoconstrictive and anti-oxidative effect, the anti-inflammatory effect of the carvedilol will be looked into, which belongs to the group of beta blockers. Based on available informations it can be noticed that the most efficient anti-inflammatory effect in teeth whitening is achived by hydrocortisone.

Published: April 2023

The OBJECTIVE was a comparative assessment of the efficacy and safety of surgical resection and endoscopic submucosal dissection in the treatment of early colorectal cancer.

MATERIALS AND METHODS. We retrospectively evaluated 165 patients after endoscopic submucosal dissection (main group) and 70 patients after surgical resection (control group) with Tis-T1N0M0 stage of colorectal cancer. Median age was 65 and 67. According to the histological structure, the groups consisted mainly of differentiated types of adenocarcinoma.

RESULTS. In the endoscopic group, all tumors were removed in a single block. Radical removal was recognized in 80.7% of cases. No progression was detected during the follow-up period. In the group of surgical resections,  progression was detected in 1 patient Postoperative complications in the endoscopic group were 9%, in the surgical group – 35.7%, class 3a and higher according to clavien–Dindo, 4.2 and 25.7%, respectively. When the tumor was localized in the rectum and rectosigmoid bend, there were significantly fewer complications in the main group than in the comparison group (4.2% vs. 20%). In the surgical group, a coloor ileostomy was formed temporarily in 28.6 % of cases, and in 10 % – for perpetuity. There were no treatment-related deaths in both groups.

CONCLUSION. In this study, endoscopic submucosal dissection showed a technical success in 100% of cases, with a risk of major postoperative complications of 4.2% and radicality in 80.7% of cases. Standard surgical techniques, along with high oncological efficiency, show significant rate of major complications (25.7 %) and in 38.6 % of cases led to a temporary or permanent life-quality recession. Thus, endoscopic submucosal dissection, in the absence of a negative prognosis factors, is the method of choice in the radical treatment of colon cancer Tis-T1N0M0 due to its effectiveness and safety.

Authors: Polushin Yu. S.
Published: April 2023

Severe septic complications are an important clinical problem. The outcomes of sepsis treatment, not to mention septic shock, are extremely unsatisfactory. To improve outcomes, the complex approach should be used, which, according to modern ideas about management as a science of health management, should extend to the field of human, medical, technological and material resources. The article considers the sticking-points in each of these areas and, based on literature data and own experience, makes suggestions for improving the care of patients with sepsis.

Published: April 2023

The OBJECTIVE was to improve the results of surgical treatment and to reduce the incidence of postoperative vascular complications in patients after distal radial-cephalic arteriovenous fistula formation using a new method of vascular anastomosis application and cilostazol medication.

MATERIALS AND METHODS. We studied 69 patients. The comparison group included 32 patients who underwent standard treatment with distal radiocephalic fistula formation according to the generally accepted method without additional conservative treatment. The main group consisted of 37 patients in whom the fistula formation was carried out according to the proposed method, and in the postoperative period, cilostazol medication was used at a dosage of 100 mg mg twice a day for more than 2 months.

RESULTS. The main group showed smaller number of vascular complications: 12 (32.4 %) patients versus 15 (46.8 %) patients in the comparison group.

CONCLUSION. The use of the proposed surgical method for arteriovenous fistula formation in combination with the use of cilostazol in the postoperative period leads to a decrease in the incidence of vascular complications, in particular, to a decrease in the frequency of thrombosis and disorders of the arteriovenous fistula formation.

Published: April 2023

The current study has concentrated on showing the impact of educational euphemisms on foreign language learners and teachers. Educational euphemistic expressions help both native and non-native speakers to use them in speech as tools for improving their formal communication. Nevertheless, these expressions can strongly affect people’s evaluation or opinions of the given situations. The findings suggest that euphemisms are powerful enough to affect one’s actual behavior. They show how using educational euphemistic expressions in learning and teaching processes affect one’s behavior. The study aims to crystalize on how euphemism in education affects English learners. To achieve the objectives of the study, a quantitative study is followed. In order to collect data, two questionnaires were administered to 78 students and 10 teachers of the Department of English Language-Faculty of Education at Koya University. The analysis of the obtained data revealed that both students and teachers use educational euphemisms in the process of learning and teaching. The findings showed that educational euphemistic expressions have impacts on the Kurd EFL learners and teachers.
Mortalidad Materna y la Pandemia por Covid-19 en México
Authors: Mendoza González Mauricio F.
Published: April 2023

La mortalidad materna como indicador integral, refleja fallas en el proceso salud – enfermedad – atención y cuidado, lo cual expone condiciones de deterioro colectivo e inequidad social. Su medición estricta y evaluación fueron criterios que sustentaron la toma de decisiones en política sanitaria mundial, especialmente durante el desarrollo y evaluación de los Objetivos para el Desarrollo del Milenio, lo cual constituyó un marcador de logro que actualmente, podría suponer haber perdido relevancia, al relajar la emisión de las nuevas metas numéricas para los Objetivos del Desarrollo Sostenible en la agenda 2030. En México, el indicador de MM fue atendido durante los primeros años de este siglo de manera puntual, para contrastar el logro nacional con la reducción del 75% comprometida por un acuerdo mundial durante el periodo 1990 a 2015. El objetivo no fue alcanzado, en virtud que los esfuerzos se centraron especialmente en acciones desde y para el sector salud, sin tomar en consideración rasgos históricos de inequidad nacional conocidos y sin un esfuerzo de base estructural integral que operara con visión de sustentabilidad. La muerte materna se ve directamente afectada por circunstancias adversas y la ocurrencia de la pandemia reciente por la Covid-19 evidenció la susceptibilidad de las mujeres embarazadas, atribuida a la enfermedad, al potencial impacto negativo sufrido en servicios de salud ineficaces, en un país donde se estimó una letalidad significativamente elevada; de un Sistema Nacional de Salud que ha manifestado grandes dificultades y una población que transita por un cambio de régimen de relativa certeza en cuanto al derecho a la protección de la salud. El presente trabajo hace un recuento histórico de la MM en México, marcando énfasis en el impacto que la pandemia tuvo sobre este indicador de desarrollo, inequidad social y calidad de los servicios de salud.

Published: April 2023

Las políticas y prácticas de conservación ambiental han sido históricamente una labor exclusiva del Estado. Actualmente, se resalta la participación de las comunidades rurales en México dentro de los proyectos de conservación, llegando éstas a ser quienes realizan la gestión de sus propias áreas naturales protegidas, ya sean de carácter público o privado, transitando hacia prácticas sustentables y alternativas económicas que contribuyen a su desarrollo. Este estudio de caso se realizó en el municipio de Tatatila, en la región montañosa del estado de Veracruz, que por sus características biogeográficas y socioculturales cuenta con un buen potencial para realizar turismo de naturaleza. Con el propósito de conocer sus perspectivas sobre esta alternativa sustentable, se encuestó aleatoriamente a 180 personas de tres comunidades de Tatatila. Los hallazgos muestran una perspectiva favorable sobre el turismo de naturaleza como medio para contribuir al desarrollo del municipio y la conservación del ecosistema.

Trayectorias culturales:
Authors: Román Laura Elena
Published: April 2023

La difusión de la cultura en las universidades afronta desde hace años varios retos que le permitan en la praxis ser una función sustantiva. Sumado a lo anterior, el parteaguas de los derechos culturales demanda su reconfiguración total. El concepto de trayectorias culturales abona al diseño de políticas culturales universitarias que afrontan lo anterior, ya que permite verla desde una perspectiva sistémica compleja, destacando dos dimensiones centrales: lo temporal y lo espacial, así como entender los derechos como una capacidad y proceso. A partir de dos encuestas de prácticas culturales aplicadas a universitarios en su punto de llegada y salida en la universidad, se ejemplifica las posibilidades de mirar la otrora difusión, vía trayectorias culturales universitarias.

Published: April 2023

Background. Radical surgeries for phlegmons, abscesses, necrotizing infection are often followed by extensive wounds which require an individual approach to their rapid closure by means of plastic surgery methods. In such a case, the optimal wound therapy is primary healing with the use of vacuum therapy.

Cases description. The study involved three clinical trials of patients with acute purulent-necrotic diseases of soft tissues of various localizations, volumes and grades, for which vacuum therapy was used as a part of complex therapy. Surgical interventions are proved to be urgently performed in acute purulent-necrotic diseases. Early reconstructive skin and bone plastic surgery aimed at closing post-operative wound defects is also very important.

Conclusion. In the demonstrated clinical cases, the purulent process was stopped and wound therapy was performed by means of primary healing, which undoubtedly ensures medical and social rehabilitation of such patients. Notably, vacuum drainage is not an independent method, but an important component in the complex active surgical treatment of purulent wounds.

Authors: Oleshchenko I. G. , Iureva T. N. , Zabolotskii D. V.
Published: April 2023

Background. The use of regional blockades for the purpose of analgesia is widely used in all fields of medicine, however, the analgesic efficacy of the pterygopalatine blockade, as an independent method of treating pain of various genesis, has not been studied enough. Therefore, there is a need to analyze the results of clinical trials to evaluate the analgesic efficacy of the pterygopalatine blockade as an independent method of anesthesia.

Objective — to investigate the analgesic effect of pterygopalatine blockade as a monotherapy in patients with pain of various origins of oculotemporal area, conducting a meta-analysis of published results of randomized clinical trials.

Methods. The methodology involved a systematic literature search by means of PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library search engines. The search covered the period of the past 10 years and had the following criteria: a double-blind, randomized, controlled study of the use of pterygopalatine blockade with a local anesthetic versus placebo. For each included study, a standardized magnitude of the analgesic effect of pterygopalatine blockade compared to placebo was calculated, with pain assessing in 15, 30, and 60 minutes after the blockade was performed. Meta-analyses were conducted for each endpoint. Meta-analysis was performed using Stata 11.0 application programs ((The Cochrane Collaboration, Oxford, United Kingdom).

Results. Five randomized controlled trials involving 269 patients met the inclusion criteria, and involved analyzing the pterygopalatine blockade with local anesthetic (n=140) against placebo (n=129). In 15 minutes after pterygopalatine blockade was performed, the difference in mean pain intensity compared to the control group was -2.5 points, the mean level was lower in the pterygopalatine blockade group, MD=-2.5 [95% CI -3.7; -1.7]. After 30 minutes: -2.7 points, MD=-2.7 [95% CI -4.5; -1.5], after 60 minutes: -1.7 points, MD=-1.7 [95% CI -4.0; -0.5]. The relative risk of adverse effects, such as nasopharyngeal symptoms, after performing a pterygopalatine blockade with a local anesthetic accounted for (RR =1.31 [95% CI 0.5–3.04]). In this regard, the incidence of complications and their variants that can be caused by pterygopalatine blockade is a matter for further clinical research.

Conclusion. The results obtained in the meta-analysis testify to the analgesic effect of the pterygopalatine blockade as a monotherapy in patients with pain of different origins oculotemporal area in 15, 30, and 60 minutes after its performance. These data may be relevant when choosing a method for first-line anesthetic management of pain syndrome of oculotemporal area.

Objetivo: Analisar o aumento da incidência de isquemia mesentérica aguda em pacientes diagnosticados com COVID-19, bem como seu manejo. Revisão bibliográfica: A COVID-19 caracteriza-se pela coagulopatia, interferindo na liberação de mediadores inflamatórios que desencadeiam um estado de hipercoagulabilidade, aumentando consideravelmente o risco de trombose e, consequentemente, de isquemia mesentérica no que tange o trato gastrointestinal. A Isquemia Mesentérica Aguda (IMA) desencadeia dor abdominal intensa e é considerada uma emergência por ser potencialmente fatal, principalmente para pacientes com fatores de risco como idade avançada, sexo masculino, obesidade, dentre outros. Diante disso, o diagnóstico precoce é essencial para garantir um bom prognóstico e para evitar a intervenção cirúrgica para ressecção intestinal. O manejo adequado envolve a revascularização do órgão afetado, bem como a reversão do quadro de coagulopatia e melhora do quadro geral do paciente. Considerações finais: Observou-se aumento dos casos de IMA durante a pandemia, notadamente em pacientes com comorbidades prévias, revelando a importância do diagnóstico prévio e do manejo adequado para evitar a perda de parte do intestino afetado, que afeta a qualidade de vida do paciente.

Rabies is a viral infection with a high mortality rate. Typical symptoms of rabies include hydrophobia, aerophobia, pharyngeal muscle spasms, and progressive paralysis. Psychiatric symptoms induced by rabies are not common. We report the case of a 26-year-old man in whom a quite typical clinical presentation of a brief psychotic disorder revealed rabies encephalitis.

Authors: Rojas Juan J. , Bull James A.
Published: April 2023

4-Membered heterocycles are low molecular weight polar scaffolds with intriguing potential for drug discovery. Despite their unquestionable value, methods to access such heterocycles remain scant. Here, we describe the generation of oxetane- and azetidine- benzylic carbocations as a general strategy to access valuable 3,3-disubstituted derivatives.
How to Find Molecules with Long-lasting Charge Migration?
Authors: Scheidegger Alan , Golubev Nikolay V. , Vaníček Jiří
Published: April 2023

Under certain conditions, the ionization of a molecule may create a superposition of electronic states, leading to ultrafast electron dynamics. If controlled, this motion could be used in attochemistry applications, but it has been shown that the decoherence induced by the nuclear motion typically happens in just a few femtoseconds. We recently developed an efficient algorithm for finding molecules exhibiting long-lasting electronic coherence and charge migration across the molecular structure after valence ionization. Here, we first explain why the but-3-ynal molecule is a promising candidate to study this type of ultrafast electron dynamics. Then, we use the 3-oxopropanenitrile molecule, which does not induce long-lasting charge migration in any of three different ionization scenarios, as an example demonstrating that several different properties must be fulfilled simultaneously to make the attochemistry applications possible.

В статье представлены данные о влиянии минеральных и органических удобрений, а также фосфогипса(ФГ) на изменение катионного состава почвенно– поглощающего комплекса орошаемых такырно– луговых почв Сурхандарьинской области. Установлено, что применение навоза крупного рогатого скота в дозах 30 т/га и ФГ в дозах 2 и 4 т/га на фоне минеральных удобрений улучшает мелиоративное состояние почв. В этом опыте в вариантах с применением N250P175K125+30 т/га навоза и 2 и 4 т/га ФГ значительно снижено содержание и доля катиона натрия в ППК и улучшена коагуляция пептизированных почвенных коллоидов, а также повысилась эффективность вносимых минеральных удобрений.

The article presents data on the effect of mineral and organic fertilizers, as well as phosphogypsum (PG) on the change in the cationic composition of the soil-absorbing complex of irrigated takyr-meadow soils of the Surkhandarya region. It has been established that the use of cattle manure at doses of 30 t/ha and FG at doses of 2 and 4 t/ha against the background of mineral fertilizers improves the ameliorative state of soils. In this experiment, in the variants with the use of N250P175K125 + 30 t/ha of manure and 2 and 4 t/ha of FG, the content and proportion of the sodium cation in the Soil-abcorbing complex (SAC) was significantly reduced and the coagulation of peptized soil colloids was improved, and the efficiency of applied mineral fertilizers was also increased.

В статьи изложены итоги изучения влияния режимов орошения и норм удобрений на рост растений и урожайность новых сортов кукурузы Узбекская зубовидная (в качестве стандарта) и Кумкишлок. Выявлено, что поддержание режима предполивной влажности почвы на уровне 70–80% ППВ и внесение удобрений в норме 30 т/га навоза + N200P160K100 кг/га положительно оказывает влияние на формирование высокорослых, облиственных растений с оптимальной площадью листовой поверхности до 0,80–1,02 м2. Самый высокий урожай зерна был получен у сорта Кумкишлок (8,5 т/га) при режиме орошения 70-80% ППВ и совместном внесение органоминеральных удобрений в норме 30 т/га навоза + N200P160K100 кг/га.

The article presents the results of studying the effect of irrigation regimes and fertilizer rates on plant growth and productivity of new varieties of corn Uzbekskaya zubovidnaya (as a standard) and Kumkishlok. It was revealed that maintaining the regime of pre-irrigation soil moisture at the level of 70–80% of the PISM and applying fertilizers at the rate of 30 t/ha of manure + N200P160K100 kg/ha has a positive effect on the formation of tall, leafy plants with an optimal leaf area of up to 0.80–1.02 m2. The highest grain yield was obtained in the Kumkishlok variety (8.5 t/ha) with an irrigation regime of 70–80% PISM and the joint application of organomineral fertilizers at a rate of 30 t/ha of manure + N200P160K100 kg/ha.

В работе показано, что усиление кровотока при сокращении мышц осуществляется в результате временной блокады альфа-адренорецепторов артерий. Такой механизм регуляции позволяет усилить кровоток в работающих мышцах, не изменяя кровоток в неработающих мышцах. После 30 дней холодовой адаптации кроликов механизм усиления кровотока в работающих мышцах сохранился, изменив количественные характеристики.

The paper shows that the increased blood flow during muscle contraction is carried out as a result of a temporary blockade of the alpha-adrenoreceptors of the arteries. This regulation mechanism allows you to increase blood flow in working muscles without changing blood flow in non-working muscles. After 30 days of cold adaptation of rabbits, the mechanism of increased blood flow in working muscles was preserved, changing quantitative characteristics.

Published: April 2023

A la suite de différentes recommandations et études concernant les résultats des élèves français en mathématiques, les enseignants de l’école Jean Calas à Ferney-Voltaire (Ain – France) ont souhaité innover et enseigner autrement cette discipline. A partir de ces éléments et des apports lors de conférences et formations en mathématiques, les enseignants se sont engagés dans la mise en place d’un dispositif de type laboratoire de mathématiques. Cette étude porte donc sur ses effets à l’école primaire en France. L’article traite des choix pédagogiques et didactiques opérés, des intérêts et limites perçus de la mise en place d’un laboratoire pour les enseignant·e·s et leurs élèves. Il décrit également la gestion concrète du dispositif dans la classe.

Après la résolution d’un problème mathématique, le moment de mise en commun des procédures, idées et résultats obtenus par les élèves est difficile à gérer tant au niveau de la construction collective des connaissances qu’au niveau organisationnel. Nous développons et illustrons comment des enseignant·e·s de primaire (élèves de 4 à 11 ans) et secondaire 1 (élèves de 12 à 15 ans) mettent en dialogue les procédures des élèves pour construire collectivement les connaissances visées par le problème.
