Inuvialuit have always created culture through our/their living and land-based practices. For us, making culture means doing, practicing, and sharing activities and songs and country food, on the land and in town, together with our families and communities. These layers of history are embedded in the landscape of Inuvialuit Nunangat, our homeland, and in the voices of Elders past and present speaking about their knowledges and experiences. In this paper, we describe how Inuvialuit communities are practicing our living traditions today and capturing them using digital methods to produce a new Inuvialuit Living History website that celebrates the past, present, and future of our communities.
Favoriser l’agentivité en matière d'intégration de l’intelligence artificielle en contexte scolaire

Published: March 2024

L’intelligence artificielle (IA) révolutionne notre société à bien des égards, et nous avons pu constater, dans les semaines qui ont suivi l’ouverture au grand public de l’agent conversationnel ChatGPT d’OpenAI, que l’éducation ne fait pas exception à la règle. Pour préparer les élèves à un monde en constante évolution, il devient de plus en plus incontournable que le personnel scolaire s’initie et exploite à bon escient les outils intégrant l’IA. Nous proposons, dans cet article, cinq stratégies dont le déploiement permettrait de développer un plan d’action en vue de se préparer à enseigner avec et à propos de l’IA. Ces stratégies sont adaptées de celles qui ont été présentées dans le cadre du panel de discussion Critical Strategies That Prepare Teachers to Teach With and About Artificial Intelligence, qui a eu lieu au dernier congrès de l’International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) à Philadelphie en juin 2023 (Blair Black et al., 2023). Ce panel était composé de plusieurs experts et expertes du milieu universitaire, spécialisé.e.s en technologie éducative.
Les cinq stratégies suivantes sont conçues pour favoriser un leadership partagé, tant dans leur élaboration que dans leur mise en oeuvre, dans l’objectif d’être adaptées à la réalité de chaque établissement scolaire. L’agentivité du personnel enseignant dans son développement professionnel (Deschênes, 2021) est au coeur des processus à déployer, notamment dans la détermination et la poursuite des objectifs, afin de tendre vers une intégration pédagogique éclairée de l’IA.
AI in the Classroom
Authors: Bradley Jon , Allison Sam 
Published: March 2024

These two opening quotations highlight the emerging dilemma faced by classroom practitioners at all levels throughout the education structure. At base, will AI turn out to be a minor irritant with relatively manageable education consequences or, on the other hand, is AI a major game changer that will fundamentally alter the overall educative process ? In the following prefatory ‘think piece’, we focus specifically on what has been identified as the most invasive conundrums that will impact all levels of society including, but not exclusively, public school classrooms.
Realistically, the issue of AI is spacious with possible fundamental implications for all learners and teachers. Further, concerns may yet to be identified and unintended consequences, both positive and negative, will no doubt emerge. Nonetheless, a review of the existing shifting research literature base has identified several broad areas of concern.
Pour une utilisation juste, éthique et responsable de l’intelligence artificielle

L’adoption rapide des systèmes d’intelligence artificielle (SIA) par les communautés scolaires, collégiales et universitaires affecte profondément nos stratégies d’apprentissage, d’enseignement, d’évaluation et d’organisation. En plus des enjeux pédagogiques entourant le plagiat et l’authenticité des productions des élèves, certains risques sociaux s’accentuent : inégalités, biais, discrimination, confidentialité des données, infraction au consentement et bien d’autres. Pour relever le défi de l’intégration juste, éthique et responsable de l’intelligence artificielle (IA) dans nos établissements, des travaux parlementaires et administratifs s’appuyant sur la contribution du personnel et des équipes-écoles devront être engagés. Une utilisation réussie repose sur le respect obligatoire du principe de précaution pour les entreprises qui développent les SIA ainsi que sur la mise à disposition des ressources nécessaires pour que se déploient pleinement l’expertise et l’autonomie professionnelle du personnel. Du temps libéré pour participer à des formations et pour transformer les activités d’apprentissage et d’évaluation doit aussi faire partie des moyens mobilisés.
AI and Course Work
Authors: Peters Brian M. 
Published: March 2024

At John Abbott and Concordia, many departmental discussions have been started addressing the scary and very real situation pertaining to AI and student work. At Concordia, one department that I know of has already circulated a working document about AI, outlining problems and strategies—this is what we need more of for sure. The English Department at Concordia has started meetings, and many discussions are taking place at the Cegep level on both the departmental and administrative levels. Is there anything we can really do, is a major question that I feel, for now, might not have an answer. What we do need to do is figure out how to address AI, how to find it/spot-it, and via our pedagogies how to motivate students not to use AI. In short, yes, we can—solutions are popping up to detect AI and, most of all, we need to make sure we don’t overload our own work schedules trying to outsmart students who use AI. This article presents an overview of obstacles that current course instructors face, be they tenured faculty, lecturers, non-permanent/part-time faculty, or teaching-assistants ; as well, this informal discussion of such problems and findings is the beginning to a discussion on how to manage course content and time without burning out as we navigate the often confusing realities associated with AI and the internet as a source where students can readily cheat and/or plagiarize.
Navigating Bias and Ensuring Fairness
Authors: Massala Kélicia 
Published: March 2024

In an evolving world driven by technology, artificial intelligence (AI) is leading
the way in bringing about changes. In the field of education, AI holds the potential to
revolutionize learning by offering curricula data-driven insights and unparalleled access to
knowledge. However, amid all the excitement surrounding these advancements, a significant
concern arises : one that addresses the implications of AI presence in our educational
landscape. This concern revolves around the possibility of biases within AI systems, which
could undermine the promise of an inclusive education for everyone.
The emergence of AI has sparked a growing awareness regarding biases that permeate
aspects of our lives from social media feeds to hiring processes. However, the realm of
education has largely remained unexplored in this regard until I decided to step forward. As
an advocate, for fairness and equal opportunities, I decided to embark on a journey to
uncover any biases embedded within the algorithms powering our virtual
classrooms.
Through an exploration of the influence of AI on education, let’s embark on a
journey, towards uncovering the reality behind prejudice navigating territories, and
ensuring that the educational landscape empowered by AI fosters inclusivity and
fairness.
L’apprentissage n’a pas de frontières

Published: March 2024

À l’Université de Montréal et du monde, à l’ère de la mondialisation, le choc des idéologies culturelles qu’entraîne la diversité démographique nous amène à repenser l’école dans toutes ses dimensions. En amont d’une approche programme suscitant le décloisonnement des matières pour une meilleure intégration des apprentissages et la cohérence entre les composantes du programme, les activités pédagogiques telles que les cours et les stages ainsi que la mobilisation concrète des concepts en terrain pluriethnique, nous imposent aujourd’hui une ouverture internationale au regard de la profession. Une formation pratique néoculturelle permet de comprendre la différence plutôt que de l’ignorer ou de la rejeter. « Partir, c’est sortir de sa zone de confort » ; c’est vivre l’apprentissage là où l’espace ne retient personne.
Repenser ses pratiques d’évaluation
Authors: Béchard Nathan 
Published: March 2024

À l’automne 2020, dans les pages de cette revue, j’ai proposé une réflexion sur l’évaluation et les impacts de la COVID-19 sur cette tâche particulièrement sensible du travail des enseignant.e.s. J’y ai notamment soutenu l’importance de revisiter les principes évaluatifs mis de l’avant par le Renouveau pédagogique en considérant les opportunités auxquelles ces derniers pavent la voie. Afin de rendre le tout un peu plus concret, j’ai tenté d’offrir, dans un webinaire organisé par le Conseil pédagogique interdisciplinaire du Québec (CPIQ) au mois d’avril 2021, des stratégies pour permettre aux enseignant.e.s de modifier leurs pratiques d’évaluation à l’échelle de la classe. D’autres que moi ont aussi proposé des réflexions allant en ce sens (voir par exemple : Conseil supérieur de l’éducation [CSE], 2018 ; Pasquini, 2021 ; Talbot & Gremion, 2022).
The spiritual essence of Chinese seascape art
Authors: Li Yue 
Published: March 2024

The article "The Spiritual Essence of Chinese Seascape Art" explores the evolution and specifics of seascape in Chinese painting, in the context of the spiritual and cultural life of China. The genre of seascape in Chinese art began to form relatively late, at the end of the 20th century, and became significant for modern landscape painting. The article pays special attention to the rarity of the depiction of the sea and ocean in traditional Chinese painting, due to philosophical and aesthetic grounds. The changes in the perception of the sea element are analyzed, which reflect the fundamental transformations in the thinking of Chinese society. The research covers the historical period from the end of the XX century to the beginning of the XXI century, revealing the contribution of individual authors and the influence of Western art on the development of the genre. The presented analysis demonstrates how, through the study of marine painting, a unique combination of traditional Chinese and Western aesthetics is revealed, forming a new artistic language and approach to the perception of nature and the sea element. The article uses an integrated approach, including historical and comparative analysis, stylistic interpretation, to explore the evolution of the seascape in Chinese painting and its spiritual and philosophical and aesthetic content. The article explores the spiritual essence of Chinese seascape art, describing its development as a late phenomenon in comparison with Western art and as an important element in modern Chinese painting. Special attention is paid to rethinking traditional artistic methods and approaches to depicting the sea, considering it as evidence of fundamental changes in the spiritual life of Chinese society. The article discusses how the seascape reflects philosophical and aesthetic changes, especially in the last third of the 20th and early 21st centuries. The authors analyze the works of Chinese artists seeking to find unique artistic languages by integrating traditional and Western elements. The novelty of the research lies in a deep analysis of the impact of socio-cultural changes on the formation and development of the seascape in Chinese painting, which allows for a better understanding of the uniqueness and dynamics of this genre in the context of global artistic and cultural trends.

Published: March 2024

Background
The main cytogenetic studies of the Characidae family comprise the genera Astyanax and Psalidodon involving the use of repetitive DNA probes. However, for the microsatellite classes, studies are still scarce and the function of these sequences in the genome of these individuals is still not understood. Thus, we aimed to analyze and compare the distribution of microsatellite sequences in the species Astyanax bimaculatus and Psalidodon scabripinnis.

Methods
We collected biopsies from the fins of A. bimaculatus and P. scabripinnis to perform cell culture, followed by chromosome extraction, and mapped the distribution of 14 microsatellites by FISH in both species.

Results and Discussion
The diploid number observed for both species was 2n = 50, with an acrocentric B microchromosome in A. bimaculatus and a metacentric B chromosome in P. scabripinnis. Regarding FISH, 11 probes hybridized in the karyotype of A. bimaculatus mainly in centromeric regions, and 13 probes hybridized in P. scabripinnis, mainly in telomeric regions, in addition to a large accumulation of microsatellite hybridization on its B chromosome.

Conclusion
Comparative FISH mapping of 14 microsatellite motifs revealed different patterns of distribution both in autosomes and supernumerary chromosomes of A. bimaculatus and P. scabripinnis, suggesting independent evolutionary processes in each of these species, representing excellent data on chromosome rearrangements and cytotaxonomy.

Rice is the staple food for billions of people and a source of income for hundreds of millions. This food security crop production needs to be improved to face the projected demands of the exponentially augmenting world’s population and overcome biotic and abiotic stress in the fields. Optimized in vitro culture protocols are a prerequisite to genetic engineering which appears to be the best potential way to improve the rice plant. In this study, ‘Nerica 3’ and ‘Nerica L36’ seeds were in vitro culture tested into 4 media (m1-4), in dark and photoperiod environments. The percentage of callus induction was calculated and callus weight was recorded. Results show that callus induction was influenced by variety × environment and medium × environment interactions, with a strong influence of the environment used. ‘Nerica 3’ showed the highest mean (88.25%) callus induction after six weeks of incubation on different media. m1 and m2 media showed greater mean callus induction (more than 86%). Higher callus induction came from m1 (82% and 91%) and m2 (81% and 93%) media, while lower rates came from m3 (73%) and m4 (69%) media for embryogenic and organogenic calli respectively. Culturing the explant in dark environment to produce embryogenic callus, resulted in greater callus weight for ‘Nerica 3’ (1.03 g) and ‘Nerica L36’ (0.79 g). This study is a contribution to the rice plant genetic improvement by proposing protocols for somatic embryogenesis of two Nerica rice varieties.

AbstractPremature ovarian failure (POF) is the occurrence of menopause before the age of 40, and may present with either primary or secondary amenorrhea. Numerous cases of POF in women with X‐chromosome deletions or translocations have been reported; thus, it is possible that smaller rearrangements undetectable by conventional cytogenetics may contribute to POF in some patients. In females with an abnormal X chromosome, cells with inactivation of the normal X may be selected against, causing skewed X‐chromosome inactivation (XCI). We therefore assessed XCI by methylation sensitive restriction digestion and PCR amplification at the androgen receptor (AR) locus, in 4 primary and 55 secondary POF patients and 109 control women. In samples heterozygous at AR and therefore informative for the skewing assay, the frequency of skewed XCI among the women with secondary amenorrhea was identical to that in control women, with 4 out of 48 (8.3%) secondary ovarian failure patients and 8 out of 97 (8.2%) control women having ≥90% skewing. Notably, all three primary amenorrhea patients that were informative at AR had skewed XCI ≥90% (P = 0.001 vs. control women; Fisher's exact test). To investigate whether X‐chromosome copy number alterations were responsible, DNA from selected patients with skewed XCI was examined by high resolution DNA microarray, however no potential regions of DNA addition or deletion were confirmed by FISH or PCR. X‐chromosome abnormalities undetectable by array, or reduced follicular pool due to an early trisomic rescue event, may explain the skewed XCI observed in POF patients presenting with primary amenorrhea. © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Hyperhomocysteinemia and MTHFR polymorphisms in association with orofacial clefts and congenital heart defects: A meta‐analysis

Published: April 2007

AbstractSeveral studies have reported an association between hyperhomocysteinemia, 5,10‐methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) polymorphisms and cleft lip with or without cleft palate (CLP), and congenital heart defects (CHDs). However, findings have been inconsistent. A meta‐analysis was performed of published studies until September 2006 investigating these associations in both mothers and children. Homocysteine data were provided in two CLP and three CHD studies, and MTHFR polymorphisms were reported in ten CLP and eight CHD studies. Data were analyzed using the random effects model in the Cochrane Review Manager. The pooled odds ratio (OR) of maternal hyperhomocysteinemia was 2.3 (95% CI 0.4–11.9) for CLP, and 4.4 (2.6–7.3) for CHDs. The MTHFR C677T polymorphism and CLP showed pooled ORs of 1.2 (0.9–1.5) in mothers and 1.0 (0.9–1.2) in children, whereas these estimates for the A1298C polymorphism were 1.0 (0.7–1.2) in mothers and 0.9 (0.6–1.2) in children. The MTHFR C677T polymorphism in CHD studies demonstrated a pooled OR of 1.0 (0.8–1.3) for mothers and 1.1 (0.9–1.5) for children. Two studies investigating the maternal A1298C polymorphism in CHDs demonstrated a pooled OR of 1.2 (0.8–1.8). Only one CHD study reported an OR of 1.3 (0.8–2.1) for this polymorphism in children. In conclusion, this meta‐analysis demonstrates that maternal hyperhomocysteinemia is a risk factor for CHDs. The MTHFR polymorphisms C677T and A1298C in both mothers and children are not independently associated with CLP or CHDs. Future studies should be performed to investigate the interactions between maternal hyperhomocysteinemia, B‐vitamin intake, related polymorphisms and the risk of CLP and CHDs. © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Otopalatodigital syndrome type 2 in two siblings with a novel filamin A 629G>T mutation: Clinical, pathological, and molecular findings
Authors: Mariño‐Enríquez Adrián , Lapunzina Pablo , Robertson Stephen P. , Rodríguez José I. 
Published: April 2007

AbstractOtopalatodigital syndrome type 2 (OPD2) is an uncommon X‐linked condition characterized by dysmorphic facies, a skeletal dysplasia affecting the axial and appendicular skeleton and extraskeletal anomalies including malformations of the brain, heart, genitourinary system, and intestines. Missense mutations of theFLNAgene, which encodes for the protein filamin A, have recently been shown to cause OPD2 and the allelic syndromes otopalatodigital type 1, Melnick‐Needles, and frontometaphyseal dysplasia. Collectively these conditions constitute the otopalatodigital spectrum disorders. We report on two sibs affected by OPD2. The diagnosis was achieved at autopsy of a macerated male stillborn with typical external and skeletal findings of OPD2. A subsequent pregnancy was terminated due to ultrasonographic findings resembling those observed in the previous sibling. Histopathological studies revealed osseus sclerosis and do not support the previously reported membranous ossification defect observed in this condition. Mutation analysis demonstrated a novel mutation, 629G>T, inFLNAthat had arisen de novo in the mother. This missense mutation predicts the substitution C210F within the second calponin homology domain of the actin‐binding domain of filamin A. The identical substitution has been recently identified in an analogous amino‐acid position within the actin binding domain of β‐spectrin leading to hereditary spherocytosis. The observation that phenylalanine is normally present in the same position in other proteins (utrophin, dystrophin) but leads to disease when present in filamin A implies that the function and/or structure of these actin binding domains are not entirely equivalent. © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
Prenatal diagnosis of partial trisomy 1q and monosomy X in a fetus with a congenital lung lesion and hydrops fetalis

Published: April 2007

AbstractWe report on the prenatal diagnosis of partial trisomy 1q and monosomy X in a fetus with a congenital lung lesion and hydrops. The finding of hydrops in a fetus with a small lung lesion, congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM) volume to head circumference ratio (CVR) 0.78, prompted cytogenetic analysis of amniotic fluid, revealing an unbalanced translocation between chromosomes X and 1 [46,X,der(X)t(X;1)(p11.2;q25 or q31)]. The incidence of chromosomal abnormalities with CCAM lesions is estimated at 1.6%. This is the first reported case of prenatally diagnosed partial trisomy 1q and monosomy X presenting as a fetal lung lesion and hydrops. © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

Published: April 2007

AbstractTissues of the auditory, ocular and reproductive systems have some similarities in their protein families and structures. Consequently, syndromes comprising these systems are described. Hearing loss alone is a component of more than 400 known syndromes and is a common nonsyndromic congenital disorder. Here we describe a syndrome in five brothers with the distinctive presentation of late‐onset progressive hearing loss, cataracts, retinitis pigmentosa, sperm motility and shape problems in a family from the Kurdish population in Iran. The clinical findings of these patients are presented in detail and compared to the classical Usher syndromes. © 2007 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.
