description: Trust is a key motivation in developing explainable artificial intelligence (XAI). However, researchers attempting to measure trust in AI face numerous challenges, such as different trust conceptualizations, simplified experimental tasks that may not induce uncertainty as a prerequisite for trust, and the lack of validated trust questionnaires in the context of AI. While acknowledging these issues, we have identified a further challenge that currently seems underappreciated - the potential distinction between trust as one construct and \emph{distrust} as a second construct independent of trust. While there has been long-standing academic discourse for this distinction and arguments for both the one-dimensional and two-dimensional conceptualization of trust, distrust seems relatively understudied in XAI. In this position paper, we not only highlight the theoretical arguments for distrust as a distinct construct from trust but also contextualize psychometric evidence that likewise favors a distinction between trust and distrust. It remains to be investigated whether the available psychometric evidence is sufficient for the existence of distrust or whether distrust is merely a measurement artifact. Nevertheless, the XAI community should remain receptive to considering trust and distrust for a more comprehensive understanding of these two relevant constructs in XAI.

description: We demonstrate and characterize an experimental technique to directly image the momentum distribution of a strongly interacting two-dimensional quantum gas with high momentum resolution. We apply the principles of Fourier optics to investigate three main operations on the expanding gas: focusing, collimation and magnification. We focus the gas in the radial plane using a harmonic confining potential and thus gain access to the momentum distribution. We pulse a different harmonic potential to stop the rapid axial expansion which allows us to image the momentum distribution with high resolution. Additionally, we propose a method to magnify the mapped momentum distribution to access interesting momentum scales. All these techniques can be applied to a wide range of experiments and in particular to study many-body phases of quantum gases.

description: We consider electrically neutral complex vector particles $V$ below the GeV mass scale that, from a low energy perspective, couple to the photon via higher dimensional form factor interactions. We derive ensuing astrophysical constraints by considering the anomalous energy loss from the Sun, Horizontal Branch, and Red Giant stars as well as from SN1987A that arise from vector pair-production in these environments. Under the assumption that the dark states $V$ constitute dark matter, the bounds are then complemented by direct and indirect detection as well as cosmological limits. The relic density from freeze-out and freeze-in mechanisms is also computed. On the basis of a UV-complete model that realizes the considered effective couplings, we also discuss the naturalness of the constrained parameter space, and provide an analysis of the zero mass limit of $V$.

description: Cognitive resources contribute to balance control. There is evidence that mental fatigue reduces cognitive resources and impairs balance performance, particularly in older adults and when balance tasks are complex, for example when trying to walk or stand while concurrently performing a secondary cognitive task. We conducted a systematic literature search in PubMed (MEDLINE), Web of Science and Google Scholar to identify eligible studies and performed a random effects meta-analysis to quantify the effects of experimentally induced mental fatigue on balance performance in healthy adults. Subgroup analyses were computed for age (healthy young vs. healthy older adults) and balance task complexity (balance tasks with high complexity vs. balance tasks with low complexity) to examine the moderating effects of these factors on fatigue-mediated balance performance. We identified 7 eligible studies with 9 study groups and 206 participants. Analysis revealed that performing a prolonged cognitive task had a small but significant effect (SMDwm = −0.38) on subsequent balance performance in healthy young and older adults. However, age- and task-related differences in balance responses to fatigue could not be confirmed statistically. Overall, aggregation of the available literature indicates that mental fatigue generally reduces balance in healthy adults. However, interactions between cognitive resource reduction, aging and balance task complexity remain elusive.

description: In sixteenth-century Augsburg a number of plain German chronicles was published and repeatedly reprinted, revised and updated. In order to understand and evaluate similarities and differences between editions adequately, this article discusses criteria that allow us to classify print editions and to conceptualize them within an overarching category such as a ‘work’. The suggested focus on codicological evidence and layout offers advantages for recognizing similarities between different editions that an analysis limited on the textual level of printed books cannot provide.
description: Im Augsburg des frühen 16. Jahrhunderts erschien eine ganze Reihe von schlicht gestalteten deutschen Chroniken, die immer wieder nachgedruckt, revidiert und aktualisiert wurden. Der Beitrag diskutiert anhand dieser noch weitgehend unbekannten Fortsetzungschroniken die methodische Frage, wie solche Drucke gruppiert bzw. konzeptionell einer übergreifenden Einheit (wie z. B. einem ‚Werk‘) zugeordnet werden können, um eine angemessenen Erfassung und Interpretation der Übereinstimmungen und Abweichungen zwischen den Ausgaben möglich zu machen. Es wird gegen die herkömmliche Beschränkung auf die Analyse der Textebene und für die Relevanz von kodikologischen Eigenschaften und Layout für die Wahrnehmung von Gemeinsamkeiten argumentiert.

description: Pratiquer la différenciation pédagogique permettrait, selon certains et contrairement à la pédagogie frontale, de viser la réussite de tous les élèves et de leur offrir des chances égales, sans distinction. Si ces hypothèses sont vraies, alors il est louable que les enseignants fassent tout leur possible pour la mettre en oeuvre. Pour ce faire, il semble dès lors opportun – c'est une lapalissade de le dire – de la connaître, d'en saisir les contours et de maîtriser les moyens nécessaires à sa mise en pratique, que ce soit au sein d'une classe ou à l'égard d'un élève en particulier. Les auteurs de ce travail ont ainsi interrogé leurs collègues enseignants pour savoir quelles représentations ils avaient de la différenciation, et quels outils ou techniques ils utilisaient pour y parvenir. C'est d'abord dans le contexte du PEERS que les auteurs ont mené conjointement deux enquêtes, l'une en région lausannoise et l'autre à Liège. Les enseignants interrogés, spécialisés du côté suisse, et freinétistes du côté belge, l'ont été sous la forme d'entretiens semi-directifs. La recherche est ici de type qualitatif. Des résultats obtenus de ce deux pré-enquêtes, les auteurs en ont tiré une troisième, qui constitue le coeur de ce travail, dans laquelle ils se sont adressés à leurs collègues suisses, enseignants réguliers et spécialisés. La forme de cette enquête est cette fois directive et la recherche conduite ici est de nature quantitative. Cette enquête principale a notamment pour but de confirmer - ou d'infirmer - celles précédemment menées, sur la base d’apports théoriques. La différenciation pédagogique exige-t-elle plus de préparation que de recourir à une pédagogie traditionnelle? Dans quelle mesure la collaboration, la formation, le parcours professionnel, le poste occupé, le lieu d’enseignement, l'expérience influent-t-ils sur la pratique de la différenciation ? Ce travail a pour vocation d'apporter, entre autres, des réponses à toutes ces questions.

description: We study the Einstein-Klein-Gordon system coupled to the Born-Infeld electrodynamics. We explore the solution space of a static spherically symmetric, complex scalar field minimally coupled to both gravitational and electromagnetic fields. The resulting asymptotically flat solutions resemble the known charged boson stars in Maxwell electrodynamics. The behaviour of such configurations as a function of the Born-Infeld parameter $b$ and the scalar field charge parameter $q$ has been analyzed. Given $b$, a critical value for $q$ exists beyond which no static solutions exist, we find that the value of this critical charge increases with respect to the Maxwell case ($b\to\infty$) as $b$ decreases. We also found that Born-Infeld boson stars have lower mass for any finite value of the Born-Infeld parameter and that their compactness is lower than Maxwell's counterparts.

description: We present our work towards using the Korean VLBI (Very Long Baseline Interferometer) Network (KVN) and VLBI Exploration of Radio Astronomy (VERA) arrays combined into the KVN and VERA Array (KaVA) for observations of radio pulsars at high frequencies ($\simeq$22-GHz). Pulsar astronomy is generally focused at frequencies approximately 0.3 to several GHz and pulsars are usually discovered and monitored with large, single-dish, radio telescopes. For most pulsars, reduced radio flux is expected at high frequencies due to their steep spectrum, but there are exceptions where high frequency observations can be useful. Moreover, some pulsars are observable at high frequencies only, such as those close to the Galactic Center. The discoveries of a radio-bright magnetar and a few dozen extended Chandra sources within 15 arc-minute of the Galactic Center provide strong motivations to make use of the KaVA frequency band for searching pulsars in this region. Here, we describe the science targets and report progresses made from the KVN test observations for known pulsars. We then discuss why KaVA pulsar observations are compelling.

description: We report the structure, magnetic property and spin polarization of CoFeMnGe equiatomic quaternary Heusler alloy. The alloy was found to exist in the L21 structure with considerable amount of DO3 disorder. Thermal analysis result indicated the Curie temperature is about 711K without any other phase transformation up to melting temperature. The magnetization value was close to that predicted by the Slater-Pauling curve. Current spin polarization of P = 0.70 {plus/minus}0.1 was deduced using point contact Andreev reflection (PCAR) measurements. Half-metallic trend in the resistivity has also been observed in the temperature range of 5 K to 300 K. Considering the high spin polarization and Curie temperature, this material appears to be promising for spintronic applications.

description: Uncertainties have become a major concern in integrated circuit design. In order to avoid the huge number of repeated simulations in conventional Monte Carlo flows, this paper presents an intrusive spectral simulator for statistical circuit analysis. Our simulator employs the recently developed generalized polynomial chaos expansion to perform uncertainty quantification of nonlinear transistor circuits with both Gaussian and non-Gaussian random parameters. We modify the nonintrusive stochastic collocation (SC) method and develop an intrusive variant called stochastic testing (ST) method to accelerate the numerical simulation. Compared with the stochastic Galerkin (SG) method, the resulting coupled deterministic equations from our proposed ST method can be solved in a decoupled manner at each time point. At the same time, ST uses fewer samples and allows more flexible time step size controls than directly using a nonintrusive SC solver. These two properties make ST more efficient than SG and than existing SC methods, and more suitable for time-domain circuit simulation. Simulation results of several digital, analog and RF circuits are reported. Since our algorithm is based on generic mathematical models, the proposed ST algorithm can be applied to many other engineering problems.

description: For the time being isotropic three-body exchange interactions are scarcely explored and mostly used as a tool for constructing various exactly solvable one-dimensional models, although, generally speaking, such competing terms in generic Heisenberg spin systems can be expected to support specific quantum effects and phases. The Heisenberg chain constructed from alternating S=1 and sigma=1/2 site spins defines a realistic prototype model admitting extra three-body exchange terms. Based on numerical density-matrix renormalization group (DMRG) and exact diagonalization (ED) calculations, we demonstrate that the additional isotropic three-body terms stabilize a variety of partially-polarized states as well as two specific non-magnetic states including a critical spin-liquid phase controlled by two Gaussinal conformal theories as well as a critical nematic-like phase characterized by dominant quadrupolar S-spin fluctuations. Most of the established effects are related to some specific features of the three-body interaction such as the promotion of local collinear spin configurations and the enhanced tendency towards nearest-neighbor clustering of the spins. It may be expected that most of the predicted effects of the isotropic three-body interaction persist in higher space dimensions.

description: We report on the result of He abundance analysis of dense circumstellar clumps in the young supernova remnant Cassiopeia A. These clumps, which are called quasi-stationary flocculi (QSFs), are known from previous optical studies to be enriched in He along with N, but the degree of He overabundance relative to H has remained uncertain. For several QSFs with near-infrared spectroscopic data, we have analyzed their He I 1.083 $μ$m/Pa$γ$ ratios together with the ratios of [Fe II] lines by using the Raymond shock code. According to our analysis, He is overabundant relative to H by a factor of $\lesssim 3$ in most of these QSFs. This He abundance of QSFs is consistent with the previous conclusion from the N overabundance that QSFs were ejected when a substantial amount of the H envelope of the progenitor star had been stripped off. We discuss the mass-loss history of the progenitor star and the origin of QSFs.

description: We explore the regime of operation of the modulator stage of a recently proposed laser-plasma accelerator scheme [Phys. Rev. Lett. 127, 184801 (2021)], dubbed the Plasma-Modulated Plasma Accelerator (P-MoPA). The P-MoPA scheme offers a potential route to high-repetition-rate, GeV-scale plasma accelerators driven by picosecond-duration laser pulses from, for example, kilohertz thin-disk lasers. The first stage of the P-MoPA scheme is a plasma modulator in which a long, high-energy 'drive' pulse is spectrally modulated by co-propagating in a plasma channel with the low-amplitude plasma wave driven by a short, low-energy 'seed' pulse. The spectrally modulated drive pulse is converted to a train of short pulses, by introducing dispersion, which can resonantly drive a large wakefield in a subsequent accelerator stage with the same on-axis plasma density as the modulator. In this paper we derive the 3D analytic theory for the evolution of the drive pulse in the plasma modulator and show that the spectral modulation is independent of transverse coordinate, which is ideal for compression into a pulse train. We then identify a transverse mode instability (TMI), similar to the TMI observed in optical fiber lasers, which sets limits on the energy of the drive pulse for a given set of laser-plasma parameters. We compare this analytic theory with particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations and find that even higher energy drive pulses can be modulated than those demonstrated in the original proposal.

description: Zn–0.2Mg–0.8Mn alloys extruded at 300 and 150°C exhibited similar grain size, second phases, but different textures which were basal and non-basal texture, respectively. The initial textures affected the yielding and strain hardening stages. Non-basal texture was not conducive to the slipping of dislocations, causing high yield strength of 378 MPa but low strain hardening rate. Average grain size decreased from 2.2 ∼ 2.3 μm to 0.7 ∼ 0.8 μm by the formation of low angle grain boundaries. Deformation texture with <1¯21¯0>||CD (CD: compressive direction) was introduced by deformation. Dynamic recrystallisation (DRX) occurred as strain exceeded 0.16 and caused softening for both of the alloys. The DRXed grains exhibited average size of 0.7 ∼ 0.8 μm and texture with 〈0001〉 deviating 15° ∼ 30° away from CD.

Constitutional and Institutional Protection of Minorities in Ethiopia

description: This article investigates minority rights protection under the Ethiopian federal state structure envisaged in its legal instruments and institutional setups. Ethiopia is a land of diverse society in terms of religion, ethnicity, culture, language, and socio-economic activities. The Federal Democratic Republic of Ethiopia (FDRE) Constitution gives the right to each nation, nationality and people, among other, to preserve its identity, administer its own affairs, and get fair representation. However, the Ethiopian federal system, structured based on ethnolinguistic criteria, apportion the country into ten (including Sidama) regional states, subsuming the rest within them. The interests of minorities, who are lumped with relatively dominant ethnic groups, are not addressed and have not been given self-determination, nor are they recognized as a distinct ethnic group of the country. Recognition of minority groups is not only determined by the Constitution and other legal frameworks but also based on political expediency, which can be unconstitutional. The possible solutions include adopting proportional representation system, enforcement of basic human rights of citizens and consideration of mechanisms of non-territorial autonomy

Ayant évolués, elles sont aujourd’hui prescrites dans les textes légaux, mais une forte diversité d’application est observée dans les pratiques enseignantes. À partir d’une enquête qualitative menée auprès d’enseignantes du deuxième cycle primaire, nous avons cherché à comprendre quel était l’impact des différentes modalités d’interaction sur la relation entre enseignants et parents. L’hypothèse avancée est que plus la fréquence des interactions augmente, plus elles ont tendance à devenir informelles et à favoriser la collaboration entre les acteurs. La méthode choisie a été l’entretien semi-directif avec quatre professionnelles de l’enseignement dont l’expérience dans le métier varie entre huit et vingt-cinq ans, qui nous ont par ce biais livré leur vision de la thématique ainsi que leurs expériences en rapport avec le sujet. Ces entretiens ont été analysés en fonction de divers thèmes, puis croisés afin de mettre en évidence les liens et contrastes entre ces femmes. Les tendances générales ainsi que les contrastes ont par la suite été analysés à la lueur des ouvrages théoriques, pour finalement arriver à une interprétation des réponses que nous avions obtenues. Ces interprétations nous ont permis de dégager des pistes pratiques pour notre avenir professionnel et nous engager dans une pratique réflexive comme jeunes enseignantes. Elles nous ont permis de prendre conscience des facteurs déterminants une relation positive menant vers une meilleure collaboration avec les parents.

description: Tidally locked worlds provide a unique opportunity for constraining the probable climates of certain exoplanets. They are unique in that few exoplanet spin and obliquity states are known or will be determined in the near future: both of which are critical in modeling climate. A recent study shows the dynamical conditions present in the TRAPPIST-1 system make rotation and large librations of the substellar point possible for these planets, which are usually assumed to be tidally locked. We independently confirm the tendency for planets in TRAPPIST-1-like systems to sporadically transition from tidally locked libration to slow rotation using N-body simulations. We examine the nature and frequency of these spin states to best inform energy balance models which predict the temperature profile of the planet's surface. Our findings show that tidally locked planets with sporadic rotation are able to be in both long-term persistent states and states with prolonged transient behavior: where frequent transitions between behaviors occur. Quasi-stable spin regimes, where the planet exhibits one spin behavior for up to hundreds of millennia, are likely able to form stable climate systems while the spin behavior is constant. 1D energy balance models show that tidally locked planets with sporadic rotation around M-dwarfs will experience a relatively small change in substellar temperature due to the lower albedo of ice in an infrared dominant stellar spectrum. The exact effects of large changes in temperature profiles on these planets as they rotate require more robust climate models, like 3D global circulation models, to better examine.

Ihre Informationsqualität wird vor dem Hintergrund der am Ende des Rechnungsjahres anstehenden Rechnungskontrolle bewertet.

description: Using the example of the city of Augsburg’s late medieval account books, the article focuses on the relationship between notation-form and information-quality of the entries. Therefore, the specific differences between the two notation-forms ‘list’ and ‘note’ are highlighted by relying on the analytical distinction between ‘data’ and ‘information’. Their information-quality is then assessed in the light of the audit of accounts at the end of the financial year. The paper argues that notes are able to include and combine more data within a single entry, while the strength of lists lies in the spatial-visual representation of their contents.

In addition to the usual superspace coordinates, projective superspace has extra bosonic variables -- one doublet for each $\text{SU}(2)$ in the R-symmetry $\text{SU}(2) \times \text{SU}(2)$ which are interpreted as homogeneous coordinates on $\mathbf{CP}^1 \times \mathbf{CP}^1$. The superfields are analytic in the $\mathbf{CP}^1$ coordinates and this analyticity plays an important role in our description. For instance, it leads to stringent constraints on the interactions one can write down for a given superfield content of the model. As an example, we describe in projective superspace Witten's ADHM sigma model -- a linear sigma model with non-derivative interactions whose target is $\mathbf{R}^4$ with a Yang-Mills instanton solution. The hyperkähler nature of target space and the twistor description of instantons by Ward, and Atiyah, Hitchin, Drinfeld and Manin are natural outputs of our construction.

description: Energieverbrauch, Energiesysteme und Nutzungsmöglichkeiten vieler Bestandsgebäude in Österreich entsprechen nicht mehr den heutigen Anforderungen. Trotz des hohen Flächenverbrauches der täglich in Österreich voranschreitet, werden Neubautender Sanierung meist vorgezogen. Um diesen Flächenverbrauch, welcher sich im Jahr 2020 auf ein 3-Jahresmittelwert von 42 km2 1 belief, einzuschränken und somit auch für die Zukunft dringend benötigten Freiflächen zu erhalten müssen Sanierungen forciert werden. Meist wird von Architekten, Fachplanern und nahestehenden Personen noch viel Überzeugungsarbeit gefordert, bis sich eine Bauherrschaft bzw. die Eigentümer einer Liegenschaft für eine Sanierung entscheiden. Die vorliegende Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit einem Objekt aus dem Jahre 1907, welches in den Jahren stets den benötigten Nutzungen angepasst und in Stand gehalten wurde. Ob das Gebäude zukünftig weitergenutzt wird oder einem Neubau weichen muss, ist zum Untersuchungszeitpunkt unklar. Die Möglichkeiten und Chancen einer Sanierung werden in der Arbeit aufgezeigt und bewertet. Die Berechnung von Energiekennwerten und die ökologische Bauteilbeurteilung erfolgen durch in der Praxis großflächig angewandte Berechnungstools. Die Bewertung des Bestandes sowie der Vergleich unterschiedlicher Sanierungsvarianten zeigen das potenzielle Sanierungs- und Einsparpotential auf. Um ein zukunftsfähiges Gesamtkonzept zu erstellen, wird in der vorliegenden Arbeit auch eine Nutzungsanpassung untersucht und erläutert. Es entwickelte sich ein Schwerpunkt im Hinblick auf die thermische Qualität der Gebäudehülle. Neben der thermischen Qualität eines Gebäudes ist auch die Verwendung und der Einsatz erneuerbarer Energien für die Raumheizung essentiell, um ein nachhaltiges und zukunftsfähiges Sanierungsprojekt zu erhalten. Durch die Umsetzung der am besten bewerteten Sanierungsvariante ergeben sich neue Möglichkeiten eines Heizungstausches und die Verwendung erneuerbarer Energien. Das Einsparpotential eines Heizungstausches und das Solarpotential einer Photovoltaikanlage sind ebenfalls Teil der Bewertung.

description: The increasing exploitation of geo-energy resources to satisfy the needs of the world's population has also led to a focus on the risks associated with this type of human activity. It is in this context that this thesis is to be carried out with the purpose to study TechNa (Technological Hazard Triggering Natural Disaster) and NaTech (Natural Hazard Triggering Technological Disaster) events. The natural phenomenon that is a consequence of an industrial activity or acts as a hazard for the industrial accident is considered to be an earthquake. The entire thesis, carried out following a multidisciplinary approach, aims to provide a contribution to the development of methodologies for the assessment of environmental risks potentially related to the technological activities of geo-resources exploitation. Three case studies and different specific methodologies are considered to explore a broad spectrum of analyses, i.e., the seismic characterization of an area, the statistical correlation between the industrial and seismic activity, and finally a multi-hazard risk assessment. The TechNa event considered is the induced seismicity that is studied in the offshore area of Porto San Giorgio (Italy) and for the Cooper Basin geothermal site (Australia). In the first case, a probabilistic approach (Lomax et al., 2000) is used to relocate the 1987 Porto San Giorgio seismic sequence, which occurred in the Adriatic offshore near the Santa Maria a Mare hydrocarbon field. The ambiguity on the mainshock depth, already known in the literature, is solved by developing a technique that uses the macroseismic intensity field data based on a grid-search of the magnitude-depth space. The results show that the seismic sequence (about 30 events) developed in the first 15 km of the crust activating thrust faults and the mainshock has depth of 5.7 km and local magnitude equal to 5. Subsequently, to investigate whether there is a relationship between anthropogenic activity and seismicity, a statistical correlation analysis is carried out using the binomial and Mann-Whitney tests. It provides statistically significant values in correspondence with the 1987 Porto San Giorgio seismic sequence. The second study on induced seismicity carried out in this thesis concerns the unconventional geothermal site of Cooper Basin. Unconventional techniques involve creating fractures for the circulation of fluids, but sometimes they can reach pre-existing faults by undesirable pathways, triggering strong earthquakes. In this work the relationship between technological parameters and the potential for seismicity to build undesirable pathways for fluid migration is investigated through a modern methodology (Lasocki & Orlecka-Sikora, 2020). ...

Photon exchange and entanglement formation during the transmission through a rectangular quantum barrier

description: When a quantum particle traverses a rectangular potential created by a quantum field both photon exchange and entanglement between particle and field take place. We present analytic results for the transition amplitudes of any possible photon exchange processes for an incoming plane wave and initial Fock, thermal and coherent field states. We show that for coherent field states the entanglement correlates the particle's position to the photon number in the field instead of the particle's energy as usual. Besides entanglement formation, remarkable differences to the classical field treatment also appear with respect to the symmetry between photon emission and absorption, resonance effects and if the field initially occupies the vacuum state.

description: The present study aimed to analyse the role of myokines and the regeneration capacity of skeletal muscle during chronic hypobaric hypoxia (CHH). Male Sprague-Dawley rats were exposed to hypobaric hypoxia (HH) for 1d, 3d and 7d. Exposure to HH enhanced the levels of decorin, irisin, IL-6 and IL-15 till 3 days of hypoxia and on 7 day of exposure, no significant changes were observed in relation to control. A significant upregulation in myostatin, activated protein kinase, SMAD3, SMAD4, FOXO-1, MURF-1 expression was observed with prolonged HH exposure as compared to normoxic control. Further, myogenesis-related markers, PAX-7, Cyclin D1 and myogenin were downregulated during CHH exposure in comparison to control. Energy metabolism regulators such as Sirtuin 1, proliferator-activated receptor gamma coactivator-1α and GLUT-4, were also increased on 1-d HH exposure that showed a declining trend on CHH exposure. These results indicated the impairment in the levels of myokines and myogenesis during prolonged hypoxia. CHH exposure enhanced the levels of myostatin and reduced the regeneration or repair capacity of the skeletal muscles. Myokine levels could be a predictive biomarker for evaluating skeletal muscle performance and loss at high altitudes.

description: « La représentation multimodale est une garantie contre l’oubli de ce mot. » (Hermann, p. 37, cité dans Wokusch, 1997). Notre travail de recherche est axé sur l’apprentissage du vocabulaire allemand, par différents ateliers impliquant plusieurs sens. La partie théorique permet de mieux comprendre la pertinence de l’apprentissage du vocabulaire par différentes modalités sensorielles. De plus, nous nous intéressons aux facteurs impliqués dans la motivation des apprentissages chez les élèves. Enfin, nous définissons ce que signifie pour nous le réinvestissement du vocabulaire dans des situations de productions langagières. Le dispositif que nous avons imaginé pour la partie pratique comprend un atelier visuel, un atelier gestuel et un atelier auditif, dans lesquels les élèves apprennent leur vocabulaire d’allemand. Ces ateliers sont intégrés à des leçons d’allemands et durent environ dix minutes. Le dispositif a duré quatre semaines. Nos deux hypothèses de recherche sont les suivantes : L’apprentissage du vocabulaire par différentes modalités de perception, permettrait aux élèves d’intégrer et de réinvestir le vocabulaire dans des situations orales concrètes. De plus, l’apprentissage du vocabulaire par ce dispositif, aurait une influence positive sur la motivation des élèves. Malheureusement, nos conditions ne nous ont pas permis d’obtenir des résultats convainquant pour confirmer toutes nos hypothèses de recherche. En revanche, nos résultats prouvent que le plaisir de l’élève à effectuer la tâche est lié à son sentiment de progression. Plus un élève progresse dans ses apprentissages, plus il a du plaisir et inversement. Moins l’élève progresse dans ses apprentissages, moins il a du plaisir et inversement.
