    The Guest Editors of the proceedings are issuing an editorial concern for this Article. Shortly after publication of this Article in May 2021, the Publisher was alerted by one of the authors Hicham Berbar that he never approved to be listed in the current Authors list. Furthermore, the Author points out that the published paper is a very similar copy to his 2018 PFE report defended at the “Centre de formation des inspecteurs de l’enseignement” (CFIE). The Publisher and the guest editors confirm that Hicham Berbar scientific concern should be addressed. Therefore, this article has been withdrawn from publication

    Infodemiological data of high-school drop-out related web searches in Canada correlating with real-world statistical data in the period 2004–2012

    AbstractThe present data article describes high-school drop-out related web activities in Canada, from 2004 to 2012, obtained mining Google Trends (GT), using high-school drop-out as key-word. The searches volumes were processed, correlated and cross-correlated with statistical data obtained at national and province level and broken down for gender. Further, an autoregressive moving-average (ARMA) model was used to model the GT-generated data. From a qualitative point of view, GT-generated relative search volumes (RSVs) reflect the decrease in drop-out rate. The peak in the Internet-related activities occurs in 2004 (56.35%, normalized value), and gradually declines to 40.59% (normalized value) in 2007. After, it remains substantially stable until 2012 (40.32%, normalized value). From a quantitative standpoint, the correlations between Canadian high-school drop-out rate and GT-generated RSVs in the study period (2004–2012) were statistically significant both using the drop-out rate for academic year and the 3-years moving average.Examining the data broken down by gender, the correlations were higher and statistically significant in males than in females. GT-based data for drop-out resulted best modeled by an ARMA(1,0) model. Considering the cross correlation of Canadian regions, all of them resulted statistically significant at lag 0, apart from for New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador and the Prince Edward island. A number or cross-correlations resulted statistically significant also at lag −1 (namely, Alberta, Manitoba, New Brunswick and Saskatchewan)

    La transformation digitale avance à grands pas et bouleverse nos habitudes, notre manière de communiquer et d’interagir, aujourd’hui le digital est devenu un vecteur fluidifiant l’échange d’informations quelle que soit la distance et offrant à l’entreprise une agilité importante. La formation professionnelle, l’un des piliers de performance de l’entreprise, ne déroge pas à cette règle et s’est bien adaptée aux impératifs de la transformation digitale, les contenus pédagogiques se numérisent de plus en plus favorisant le développement des compétences des apprenants à travers une multitude de solutions digitales (classes virtuelles, MOOC, mobile learning, social learning, ...) appelées communément le « digital learning ». L’objectif de cet article est d’analyser les éléments de différenciation entre le e-learning et le digital learning et d’apprécier l’impact de ce dernier au sein d’une entreprise

    No full text
    La banque est le pilier central de l’économie, sa mission consiste à proposer des services financiers tels que collecter l’épargne et la distribuer sous forme de crédits, elle profite d’une position principale sur des opérations à fortes valeurs ajoutées ... Mais l’arrivée du digital va brusquement tout remettre en question. Dans ce contexte très particulier, la banque se voit dans l’obligation de mettre en place des plans de transformations digitales pour diversifier son offre de produits et services, améliorer sa relation client et surtout garantir sa survie. Mais quand est-il des collaborateurs qui travaillent dans les banques de détail ? Comment le digital va impacter leurs missions et leurs compétence ? Ainsi, l’objectif principale de notre article est de démystifier, dans un premier temps les enjeux et les menaces de la transformation digitale sur les organisations et dans un second temps, de comprendre dans quelles mesures la transformation digitale va impacter les principaux métiers de la banque de détail, à savoir : le gestionnaire du back office, le conseiller clientèle et enfin le responsable d’agence

    Leopold Blaustein, "On the Perception of the Radio Play." Translated from French ("Étude sur la perception des pièces radiophoniques") by Hicham Jakha. Polish fragments translated by Filip Borek and Alicja Jakha.

    No full text
    Blaustein explores the phenomenon of listening to the radio play. The idea put forth by the author is that the radio play engages perception, treating the latter in a broad sense. Perception is not necessarily restricted to seeing; rather, it is understood as being cross-modal, as involving different senses. The main sense involved in the case of radio plays is hearing, which enables one to listen to the radio. Radio listeners are drawn into radio plays as media of hearing. Instead of vision, listeners engage their “acousion,” a term coined by Blaustein to capture the perceptual distinctness of hearing; acousion is the auditive perception of radio plays. Listening to a radio play is a lived experience or a psychic phenomenon, precisely due to the activeness of acousion. Listeners do not only passively perceive or hear auditive data. They also engage their imaginative faculties, presenting to themselves, mentally, the world of the action; by so doing, listeners enable the act of listening. According to Blaustein, presentations, even imaginative ones, are basic. By listening to a radio play, the listener imaginatively presents the world of the action to themselves, as if they were watching a theater play. However, going beyond the realm of presentations, other factors are examined, e.g., the listener’s focus is turned into the world represented—the world within—, which is given to them via auditive data and dialogue
