SOME ASPECTS OF IDENTIFYING CREDITWORTHINESS IN CORPORATE LOANS IN UZBEKISTAN
Creators: name: Asatullaev, Alisher
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: Credit and equivalent operations are allocated to the customer who has a deposit account in the bank, according to his written application (order) on the basis of the contract and in compliance with the general principles of crediting. In some cases (financially stable, positive credit history and constant cash flow to customers, as well as for financing projects included in Government programs), lending through a secondary account opened at a Bank branch can be carried out only with the permission of the Main Bank's Credit Committee. Loans by the bank are repayable (with the obligation to repay the loan), term (for a certain period), solvency (based on the payment of fixed interest payments on the loan received), security (based on the provision of security for the requested loan funds) and purpose (based on the business plan, for a specific purpose) allocated on the basis of conditions.

description: In this work we discuss the holographic description of states in the Hilbert space of (2+1)-dimensional quantum gravity, living on a time slice in the bulk. We focus on pure gravity coupled to pointlike sources for heavy spinning particles. We develop a formulation where the equations for the backreacted metric reduce to two decoupled Liouville equations with delta-function sources under pseudosphere boundary conditions. We show that both the semiclassical wavefunction and the gravity solution are determined by a universal object, namely a classical Virasoro vacuum block on the sphere. In doing so we derive a version of Polyakov's conjecture, as well as an existence criterion, for classical Liouville theory on the pseudosphere. We also discuss how some of these results are modified when considering closed universes with compact spatial slices.

description: There is increasing evidence suggesting a discrepancy between the cosmic dipole observed in the number count of distant galaxies and the one derived from the cosmic microwave background (CMB). In this study, we investigate the possibility that the cosmic dipole problem can be addressed by considering the QCD axion, a hypothetical particle that arises from the spontaneous breaking of the Peccei-Quinn symmetry and is postulated to constitute the dark matter in our universe.

description: L’erreur a toujours fait partie intégrante du parcours des apprentissages de l’homme. Qu’on le veuille ou non, « apprendre est une entreprise douloureuse et les erreurs en sont les produits nécessaires mais provisoires » (Fiard & Récopé p. 20). En tant que future enseignante, il est de notre devoir d’évoluer avec la société et le courant pédagogique qui la façonnent. Mettre en question nos pratiques, nos gestes professionnels et nos représentations est une nécessité pour un bon enseignement. Tout enseignant qui se soucie de l’avenir de ses élèves se verra impliqué dans la problématique de ce travail, « peut-on changer la représentation de l’erreur chez nos jeunes élèves ? ». Cette recherche offre ainsi la possibilité à tout un chacun de s’interroger sur le statut qu’il attribue à l’erreur et d’en voir les conséquences. Au travers de ce mémoire, j’ai cherché à mettre en avant les différentes représentations de l’erreur des élèves de 3ème Harmos. Faire examiner avec leurs mots ce qu’ils pensent de l’erreur et par qui ces prémices de représentation se sont construites. J’ai choisi d’analyser les données à l’aide de théories actuelles, comme le statut de l’erreur dans notre courant pédagogique ou encore les différentes représentations des enseignants quant au développement de l’intelligence chez les élèves. La lecture de ce travail donne par ailleurs la possibilité au lecteur de se rendre compte que la prise de conscience sur l’origine de l’erreur est un véritable outil de progression pour les apprentissages. Finalement, je souhaite qu’à la lecture de ce mémoire, tout enseignant en vienne à s’interroger sur sa propre représentation de l’erreur et à son impact sur le parcours scolaire de ses élèves.

description: The local distance ladder estimate of the Hubble constant ($H_0$) is important in cosmology, given the recent tension with the early universe inference. We estimate $H_0$ from the Type Ia supernova (SN~Ia) distance ladder, inferring SN~Ia distances with the hierarchical Bayesian SED model, BayeSN. This method has a notable advantage of being able to continuously model the optical and near-infrared (NIR) SN~Ia light curves simultaneously. We use two independent distance indicators, Cepheids or the tip of the red giant branch (TRGB), to calibrate a Hubble-flow sample of 67 SNe~Ia with optical and NIR data. We estimate $H_0 = 74.82 \pm 0.97$ (stat) $\pm\, 0.84$ (sys) km\,s$^{-1}$\,Mpc$^{-1}$ when using the calibration with Cepheid distances to 37 host galaxies of 41 SNe~Ia, and $70.92 \pm 1.14$ (stat) $\pm\,1.49$ (sys) km\,s$^{-1}$\,Mpc$^{-1}$ when using the calibration with TRGB distances to 15 host galaxies of 18 SNe~Ia. For both methods, we find a low intrinsic scatter $σ_{\rm int} \lesssim 0.1$ mag. We test various selection criteria and do not find significant shifts in the estimate of $H_0$. Simultaneous modelling of the optical and NIR yields up to $\sim$15\% reduction in $H_0$ uncertainty compared to the equivalent optical-only cases. With improvements expected in other rungs of the distance ladder, leveraging joint optical-NIR SN~Ia data can be critical to reducing the $H_0$ error budget.

description: Ce mémoire s'intéresse à la manière dont des élèves de 11-12 ans s'y prennent pour orthographier des homophones grammaticaux. L'objectif de ce travail est de comprendre les stratégies utilisées par les élèves et de cerner leurs difficultés afin de proposer des pistes pour un enseignement des homophones efficace. Dans un premier temps, l'enseignement des homophones d'une classe a été analysé grâce à un entretien avec l'enseignante et à l'analyse de ses leçons. Pour comprendre le cheminement cognitif des élèves, une dictée comportant beaucoup d'homophones leur a été proposée. Puis, chaque élève a passé un entretien métagraphique lui permettant d'expliquer ses choix graphiques. Enfin, les différentes stratégies utilisées ont été classées selon une typologie permettant de différencier les stratégies utilisant le métalangage et les stratégies métalinguistiques. Cette recherche a permis de constater que l'utilisation du métalangage et d'une réflexion métalinguistique est indispensable pour distinguer les différents homophones. Cependant, certains homophones peuvent facilement être différenciés à l'aide d'un "truc", mais ceux-ci sont rares et provoquent parfois des confusions chez certains élèves. L'enseignement des homophones doit donc être le plus explicite possible et doit encourager les élèves à se poser des questions sur la langue.

description: We introduce the neural network architecture SPENDER as a core differentiable building block for analyzing, representing, and creating galaxy spectra. It combines a convolutional encoder, which pays attention to up to 256 spectral features and compresses them into a low-dimensional latent space, with a decoder that generates a restframe representation, whose spectral range and resolution exceeds that of the observing instrument. The decoder is followed by explicit redshift, resampling, and convolution transformations to match the observations. The architecture takes galaxy spectra at arbitrary redshifts and is robust to glitches like residuals of the skyline subtraction, so that spectra from a large survey can be ingested directly without additional preprocessing. We demonstrate the performance of SPENDER by training on the entire spectroscopic galaxy sample of SDSS-II; show its ability to create highly accurate reconstructions with substantially reduced noise; perform deconvolution and oversampling for a super-resolution model that resolves the [OII] doublet; introduce a novel method to interpret attention weights as proxies for important spectral features; and infer the main degrees of freedom represented in the latent space. We conclude with a discussion of future improvements and applications.

description: We study constraints on the effective field theory (EFT) from the relative entropy between two theories: we refer to these as target and reference theories. The consequence of the non-negativity of the relative entropy is investigated by choosing some reference theories for a given target theory involving field theories, quantum mechanical models, etc. It is found that the constraints on EFTs, e.g., the single massless scalar field with the dimension-eight operator, and SMEFT dimension-eight $SU(N)$ gauge bosonic operators, are consistent with the positivity bounds from the unitarity and causality when the higher-derivative operators are generated by the interaction between heavy and light fields. The constraints on Einstein-Maxwell theory with higher-derivative operators from the non-negativity of relative entropy are also investigated. The constraints on such EFTs from the relative entropy hold under an assumption that perturbative corrections from the interaction involving higher-derivative operators of light fields are not dominant in the EFTs. The consequence of this study on the weak gravity conjecture and the second law of thermodynamics is also discussed.

Cosmological Perturbations: Vorticity, Isocurvature and Magnetic Fields

description: In this paper I review some recent, interlinked, work undertaken using cosmological perturbation theory -- a powerful technique for modelling inhomogeneities in the Universe. The common theme which underpins these pieces of work is the presence of non-adiabatic pressure, or entropy, perturbations. After a brief introduction covering the standard techniques of describing inhomogeneities in both Newtonian and relativistic cosmology, I discuss the generation of vorticity. As in classical fluid mechanics, vorticity is not present in linearized perturbation theory (unless included as an initial condition). Allowing for entropy perturbations, and working to second order in perturbation theory, I show that vorticity is generated, even in the absence of vector perturbations, by purely scalar perturbations, the source term being quadratic in the gradients of first order energy density and isocurvature, or non-adiabatic pressure perturbations. This generalizes Crocco's theorem to a cosmological setting. I then introduce isocurvature perturbations in different models, focusing on the entropy perturbation in standard, concordance cosmology, and in inflationary models involving two scalar fields. As the final topic, I investigate magnetic fields, which are a potential observational consequence of vorticity in the early universe. I briefly review some recent work on including magnetic fields in perturbation theory in a consistent way. I show, using solely analytical techniques, that magnetic fields can be generated by higher order perturbations, albeit too small to provide the entire primordial seed field, in agreement with some numerical studies. I close with a summary and some potential extensions of this work.

description: Island endemic birds represent approximately 90% of contemporary avian extinctions globally. Introduced predators and land-use change are key drivers of population decline in this group. Where multiple threats may compound the impacts on species, the implementation of complementary approaches to threat assessment can be especially valuable. Using Norfolk Island (NI) in the south-west Pacific as an exemplar, we assessed daily nest survival rates for five endemic songbirds (NI Robin Petroica multicolor, NI Gerygone Gerygone modesta, Slender-billed White-eye Zosterops tenuirostris, NI Whistler Pachycephala pectoralis xanthoprocta and NI Fantail Rhipidura albiscapa pelzelni), monitoring 135 nests over four breeding seasons. To understand the factors associated with suitable breeding habitat, we also conducted ecological niche modelling in Maxent for all species. Depredation was the primary driver of nest failure across all species (80% of failed nests), with invasive rats (Rattus sp.) being the most common predator (61% of depredated nests) and a key predictor of nest survival. Gerygones and Fantails exhibited the highest nest survival and were also categorised as habitat generalists using ecological niche modelling. Conversely, the three species that exhibited lower nest survival (Robin, White-eye and Whistler) had specialised habitat requirements, highlighting the potential for cumulative impacts. Our data suggest that invasive rodent control within intact forested sites is a critical management action for this system, followed by strategic habitat restoration and increased connectivity. Our study provides essential ecological information for five poorly understood island songbirds and identifies key management strategies for a regional avian hotspot.

description: La réalisation d’un premier mémoire consacré au rapport au savoir d’apprentis de commerce m’a amené à constater que plus il est donné à un élève l’opportunité de pratiquer la langue qu’il apprend sur le terrain, plus ses résultats sont bons. Cela m’a incité à organiser un échange linguistique pour l’une de mes classes afin de voir si cela avait aussi une incidence sur leur rapport au savoir et leur motivation pour l’apprentissage de l’allemand. Ce travail de recherche a pour cadre une classe de 8e VSB de l’établissement secondaire de Vevey qui a participé à un échange linguistique avec une classe de Reinach (BL). Les élèves veveysans ont été invités à remplir quatre questionnaires au cours de l’année scolaire 2010- 2011. Ils y décrivent notamment leur parcours personnel, les raisons qui les poussent personnellement à apprendre l’allemand ou les raisons pour lesquelles les enfants en Suisse apprennent cette langue. Ils dévoilent aussi leurs résultats de la 5e à la 8e et les justifient avec leurs mots. Concernant le rapport au savoir, les réponses des élèves ont été analysées et confrontées aux travaux de l’équipe ESCOL menée par Bernard Charlot et à ceux de Marguerite Altet. Les différentes positions de la recherche sont présentées dans ce travail. Les réponses des élèves, présentées en annexe de ce travail, permettent non seulement de faire un état des lieux du rapport au savoir d’élèves de 8e année, mais offrent aussi à chaque enseignant l’opportunité de réfléchir sur les moyens dont il dispose pour améliorer le rapport u savoir et les conditions d’apprentissage de ses élèves.

description: A finite element method (FEM)-based simulation approach to predict the tunability in composite materials was developed and tested with analytical data. These tests showed good prediction capabilities of the simulation for the test data. The simulation model was then used to predict the tunability of a network-structured composite, where the dielectric phase formed clusters in a paraelectric network. This was achieved by simulating a reciprocal core-shell unit cell of said network. The simulation showed a high tunability for this network model, exceeding the tunability of the analytically evaluated layered, columnar, and particulate model. The simulation results were experimentally verified with a Ba₀.₆Sr₀.₄TiO₃/Mg₃B₂O₆ (BST/MBO) composite, where core-shell granulates were made with a two-step granulation process. These structured samples showed higher tunability and dielectric loss than the unstructured samples made for comparison. Overall, the structured samples showed higher tunability to loss ratios, indicating their potential for use in tunable radio frequency applications, since they may combine high performance with little energy loss.

description: Cooperatively breeding species vary widely in degree of social complexity, and disentangling relationships among group members can reveal the costs and benefits of cooperation. Here, we describe the social system of the cooperatively breeding Variegated Fairywren (Malurus lamberti) and explore how social complexity and group dynamics may affect cooperation and conflict. We used a combination of field-based population monitoring and detailed social association observations to determine group membership annually across four breeding seasons (2014–2017) and used a ddRAD-seq genotyping method to determine genetic relationships within social groups. Social groups ranged in size from two to eight individuals and nearly half of all social groups had multiple adult individuals of both sexes. Approximately half of all groups exhibited plural breeding, in which multiple females within the same social group nested individually in the same territory. Genetic relationships were diverse among social groups due to high rates of extra-pair paternity and immigration, with most groups containing close relatives and non-relatives of each sex. Notably, although related females were often present within a social group, co-breeding females in the same social group were never closely related to each other. Given the extensive variation in relatedness among group members, cooperation in the Variegated Fairywren is likely maintained by a combination of direct and indirect fitness benefits.

description: This quantitative study utilized a survey design to collect data from 61 Indiana K-12 public school superintendents to identify their use of Palmer and Stough’s emotional intelligence (EI) factors (Palmer et al., 2009) and frequency of use of Kouzes and Posner’s (2017) leadership practices in the workplace. Participants provided their age and years of experience as a superintendent and rated their use of emotional intelligence and leadership practices in the workplace. The four EI factors with the highest whole group mean were emotional self-control, emotional reasoning, emotional self-awareness, and emotional awareness of others. The top two leadership practices used by Indiana K-12 public school superintendents were enable others to act with a mean of 53.90 (SD = 3.96) and model the way with a mean of 52.84 (SD = 3.96). Research questions were answered using a simultaneous multiple regression analysis. There was no statistically significant relationship between age and years of experience as a superintendent with either EI or use of leadership practices in the workplace. The linear combination of Palmer and Stough’s seven factors of EI was a statistically significant predictor (p < 0.001) of the composite score of Kouzes and Posner’s leadership practices, with emotional reasoning being a significant predictor (t = 3.40, p = 0.001). The results of this study reinforce the relationship between the use of EI and leadership practices in the workplace and add to the body of research regarding EI and leadership practices in education.

description: We describe the population size and breeding ecology of the Red-billed Tropicbird, Phaethon aethereus, a poorly studied pantropical seabird, at St Helena, South Atlantic. The population size of 81–246 pairs and 272–564 individuals identifies the study population as the largest colony of Red-billed Tropicbirds in the South Atlantic, but also an internationally important part of the global population. We estimated the survival from laying to fledging of 158 nests between 2004 and 2017 at only 33%, among the lowest values reported globally for the species. Most nest failures occurred during incubation, with predation identified as the predominant cause of fledging failure. Intervals between breeding attempts were longer after successful nesting attempts than failed attempts. Previous breeding interval and nest cavity fidelity further influenced the interval between breeding attempts, while the presence of replacement clutches did not. Multiple nest site and cavity characteristics were important predictors of cavity use, nest site selection and productivity. Management options for reducing mammalian predators to ensure the long-term viability of this important population at St Helena are discussed.

description: Deliverable 4.2 (D 4.2) addresses various model financing instruments, with a focus on the framework conditions and the context. D 4.2 provides an analysis of the financing instruments and of their instrumental adequacy to promote RECs. The D 4.2 report will also consider established financial incentives to promote RECs under “grid-supporting” conditions. This implies an overview on different tariffs (energy and grid) as well as the corresponding legal framework conditions for the economic viability of RECs in future energy markets. The report shortly analyses the regulatory framework conditions with regard to grid tariffs for active and passive market participants. Furthermore, the project report D4.2 will – following the tradition of hands-on approaches under COME RES in the target regions - give an overview of the financing instruments that already exist in the COME RES countries, including e.g. tax incentives, renewable energy certificates or specific local bond mechanisms. Throughout this task they will be analysed regarding their benefits and deficits, based on input received from the COME RES countries. This analysis can then be used to determine appropriate business models and financing instruments, which work best under certain local specific conditions. Preliminary results of this Deliverable were fed into project tasks 5.2 and 5.3 which identify and assess good and best practice cases of RECs.

description: La pensée critique est aujourd'hui une compétence transversale largement reconnue et mise en avant dans les programmes d'études des écoles occidentales. L'enseignement spécialisé est lui aussi concerné par ce concept, si l'on considère que l'aboutissement de toute éducation est de favoriser au mieux l'indépendance et l'autonomie de l'individu. Le Centre de Formation TEM de la Broye (Fondation de Verdeil) accueille des adolescents en situation de handicap à l'issue de leur scolarité obligatoire et les prépare pendant deux ans à une rentrée dans un centre de formation professionnel. Dans ce cadre, l'équipe de professionnels accompagne les jeunes dans le but de les rendre le plus autonomes possible dans les actes de la viequotidienne et les guide pour leurs premiers pas dans la vie professionnel. Dans ce travail, je m'interroge du point de vue de l'enseignement spécialisé : quelles activités et quelles stratégies mettre en place pour encourager et stimuler également l'autonomie de la pensée, pour activer chez ces jeunes quelques mécanismes de cet esprit critique dont la littérature abonde? Le choix d'expérimenter des activités autour de l'image s'est imposé assez naturellement : au carrefour de nombreux champs d'application, l'analyse d'images a l'avantage de ne pas défavoriser les mauvais lecteurs et d'aborder une multitude de sujets, de la citoyenneté à la géographie, en passant par l'exploration de ses émotions. Ce mémoire analyse une série d'activités autour de l'image menées sur un an dans la cadre de l'atelier-classe du Centre de Formation de la Broye dans la perspective de l'activation et du développement de la pensée critique des élèves.

description: We examine the kinematic morphology of early-type galaxies (ETGs) in three galaxy clusters Abell 85, 168 and 2399. Using data from the Sydney-AAO Multi-object Integral field spectrograph (SAMI) we measured spatially-resolved kinematics for 79 ETGs in these clusters. We calculate $λ_{R}$, a proxy for the projected specific stellar angular momentum, for each galaxy and classify the 79 ETGs in our samples as fast or slow rotators. We calculate the fraction of slow rotators in the ETG populations ($f_{SR}$) of the clusters to be $0.21\pm0.08$, $0.08\pm0.08$ and $0.12\pm0.06$ for Abell 85, 168 and 2399 respectively, with an overall fraction of $0.15\pm0.04$. These numbers are broadly consistent with the values found in the literature, confirming recent work asserting that the fraction of slow rotators in the ETG population is constant across many orders of magnitude in global environment. We examine the distribution of kinematic classes in each cluster as a function of environment using the projected density of galaxies: the kinematic morphology-density relation. We find that in Abell 85 $f_{SR}$ increases in higher density regions but in Abell 168 and Abell 2399 this trend is not seen. We examine the differences between the individual clusters to explain this. In addition, we find slow rotators on the outskirts of two of the clusters studied, Abell 85 and 2399. These galaxies reside in intermediate to low density regions and have clearly not formed at the centre of a cluster environment. We hypothesise that they formed at the centres of groups and are falling into the clusters for the first time.

description: Northamptonshire Archaeology, 15, 35-118
description: Excavation located the Roman road from Towcester to the south, and produced some early military evidence and a sequence of later deposits including a possible public building of AD 75, associated in 2nd century with high quality table ware. A smaller stone building replaced it; later Roman finds were not associated with any structure. No further occupation until late medieval features and post-medieval clay pipe making. Many finds and animal bones.

description: L’altération des interactions sociales est au coeur de la problématique autistique. Effectivement, les personnes atteintes d’un trouble du spectre autistique, ayant une faible cohérence centrale et étant atteintes de cécité mentale, ont peu d’attention conjointe, un manque de réciprocité sociale et émotionnelle, un contact visuel perturbé et une distance à l’autre inadaptée. Malgré cela, en tant qu’enseignants spécialisés nous disposons encore de peu d’outils pour aider ces élèves à développer leurs habiletés sociales. Convaincue de l’importance d’enseigner les habiletés sociales dans ma pratique, mon mémoire se centrera sur cet enseignement pour trois élèves donnés et sur une année scolaire donnée. Avec pour but de permettre aux élèves d’avoir plus d’interactions avec leurs pairs et les adultes, de leur offrir plus de moyens pour se faire comprendre et de diminuer leurs troubles du comportement. Dans un premier temps, les particularités cognitives, émotionnelles, communicationnelle et sociales des personnes atteintes d’autisme sont décrites. Puis, les outils principaux sont présentés sur la base d’une recherche bibliographique. Ensuite, différents outils ont été sélectionnés pour trois élèves, tels que la pédagogie structurée, les moyens de communication augmentatifs, l’imitation réciproque synchrone, le travail sur l’attention conjointe, les scénarii sociaux et la méthode SAS. Ces derniers et leurs effets sont évalués à l’aide du Vineland, du TEC, et de différentes grilles d’observations que j’ai réalisées. Finalement, les résultats montrent que la combinaison de ces différents outils a permis pour ces trois élèves d’entrer plus souvent et de manière plus adaptée en relation avec leur entourage. De plus, pour un élève qui présentait de nombreux comportements défis, ceux-ci ont pu être remplacés en partie par des comportements socialement plus acceptables.

Strains and axial outflows in the field of a rotating black hole

description: We study the behaviour of an initially spherical bunch of accelerated particles emitted along trajectories parallel to the symmetry axis of a rotating black hole. We find that, under suitable conditions, curvature and inertial strains compete to model the shape of axial outflows of matter contributing to generate jet-like structures. This is of course a purely kinematical effect which does not account by itself for physical processes underlying the formation of jets. In our analysis a crucial role is played by a property of the electric and magnetic part of the Weyl tensor to be Lorentz-invariant boosting along the axis of symmetry in Kerr spacetime.

description: Geographic overlap of Olive-backed Oriole O. sagittatus and the Green Oriole O. flavocinctus is extensive in northern Australia, but they generally are separated by habitat. They overlap in New Guinea, however, where their habitat distinction is much reduced. Genetic methods in an earlier study detected unexpected hybridisation between the two species in New Guinea. Here, we ask whether hybridisation between the two species may have gone unnoticed in northern Australia, whether genetic methods again may detect it, and whether this may relate to habitat management and conservation. We find no evidence for hybridisation in Australia and conclude that its occurrence in New Guinea is indeed likely related to the reduced habitat distinction between the two species there relative to their range in Australia. We also examine taxonomic corollaries of our genomic data.

In Situ Calibration of Six-Axes Force Torque Sensors using Accelerometer Measurements

Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Robotics (cs.RO)

description: This paper proposes techniques to calibrate six-axis force-torque sensors that can be performed in situ, i.e., without removing the sensor from the hosting system. We assume that the force-torque sensor is attached to a rigid body equipped with an accelerometer. Then, the proposed calibration technique uses the measurements of the accelerometer, but requires neither the knowledge of the inertial parameters nor the orientation of the rigid body. The proposed method exploits the geometry induced by the model between the raw measurements of the sensor and the corresponding force-torque. The validation of the approach is performed by calibrating two six-axis force-torque sensors of the iCub humanoid robot.

Apports de l'enseignement stratégique sur l'acquisition de compétences et de stratégies métalinguistiques en compréhension de l'écrit

description: L'objectif de ce travail est d'analyser les apports d'un enseignement explicite de stratégies sur l'acquisition de compétences métalinguistiques en compréhension de l'écrit. Différentes stratégies pour comprendre un texte et répondre à des questions ont été mises en évidence par les recherches. Nous proposons notre propre démarche qui en fait la synthèse. Ce mémoire porte également sur l'étude d'un cas. La lecture est une activité non seulement de décodage, mais encore de compréhension. Comprendre signifie se construire une image dans la tête du contenu du texte. Ce dernier nous raconte une histoire que nous inférons à partir de ses éléments et de nos propres connaissances. Il y a des choses qu'il nous dit et d'autres que nous pouvons déduire. La compréhension implique donc des connaissances et des processus métalinguistiques qui la régulent. En effet, ceux-ci permettent de réfléchir sur sa manière de comprendre le texte. Les processus métalinguistiques distinguent l'élève bon lecteur de l'élève en difficulté. Ce dernier ne réalise pas toujours quand il ne comprend pas, ce qu'il ne comprend pas et ce dont il a besoin pour rétablir la perte de compréhension. S'il réalise qu'il ne comprend pas, il n'a pas toujours les stratégies pour y remédier ; s'il en connaît, il ne sait pas forcément les utiliser et s'il sait les utiliser, il ne sait pas quand les appliquer. Il a besoin d'un enseignement explicite de stratégies qui se décline en trois étapes : modèle explicite, pratique guidée, pratique autonome. A travers le modelage, nous fournissons des connaissances déclaratives, procédurales et conditionnelles sur les stratégies pour favoriser leur transfert à diverses situations d'apprentissage. Nous les définissons et précisons leur utilité tout en rendant transparents les processus. Ensuite, l'apprenant est guidé dans l'utilisation autonome de ces dernières. Il prend en charge progressivement son fonctionnement cognitif. Malgré les difficultés observées, notre recherche a montré que l'enseignement stratégique a permis à l'élève d'apprendre à planifier, contrôler et réguler sa compréhension. Autrement dit, il a acquis des connaissances et des stratégies métalinguistiques qui lui permettent d'être efficient en compréhension de l'écrit. Il lui a également permis de modifier ses conceptions de l'acte lexique et il a davantage confiance en ses compétences, puisqu'il a fait le lien entre les stratégies utilisées et ses réussites.
