Book Description
Les liens entre santé numérique et inégalités sociales et territoriales sont rarement étudiés. Sur ces deux marqueurs des systèmes de santé et sur le couplage numérique-inégalités, les politiques des systèmes de santé occidentaux ont encore moins fait l'objet d'étude, malgré les injonctions internationales à adopter des stratégies de « santé (et d'équité) dans toutes les politiques ». Cette thèse a étudié l'action des gouvernements et des autres acteurs impliqués sur ce couplage numérique-inégalités. Ancrée dans la recherche interventionnelle et en science politique, elle s'appuie sur une méthodologie principalement qualitative de sociologie de l'action publique. L'analyse comparée de l'action publique entre infra-territoires de quatre pays (France, Canada, Espagne et Angleterre), depuis 2015, repose sur l'étude documentaire (sources officielles et de parties prenantes) et sur des entretiens auprès d'acteurs clés des champs du numérique et des inégalités sociales de santé. La politique de numérisation de la santé s'est institutionnalisée à divers degrés, dans les quatre pays étudiés. En revanche, l'équité dans la santé numérique n'a pas été placée à l'agenda des priorités politiques, malgré le constat du potentiel de la santé numérique à accroître les inégalités d'accès, de compréhension et d'appropriation des TIC. Dans les quatre territoires, quand elle est (rarement) abordée, l'inclusion numérique l'est via une combinaison d'instruments et de groupes d'acteurs de divers forums qui coproduisent des interventions publiques sur le numérique, les inégalités et l'inclusion numérique. Chaque mode d'instrumentation de l'action publique varie selon les territoires et est affecté par les institutions locales existantes, les intérêts et les perceptions des acteurs à leur sujet. Cette thèse propose un cadre conceptuel pour l'action publique et la mise en œuvre des politiques en matière de santé numérique et d'équité dans quatre territoires. Elle a été conçue pour fournir des clés d'analyse de politiques dans d'autres contextes et pour suggérer des stratégies qui pourraient être mises en œuvre sur le terrain.

Book Description
Important advances in tropical plant breeding achieved by French research teams of Cirad, Inra and Ird, in collaboration with counterpart staff in tropical countries, are reviewed in the present publication. All 24 chapters focus on different plants, and include: in-depth analysis of trait diversity in cultivated forms and links with related wild species; overviews of breeding techniques and biotechnological innovations utilized by breeders; assessment of genetic progress, based on examples from varietal improvement and extension programmes.

Book Description
The debate is no longer whether to use information and communication technologies (ICT) in education in Africa but how to do so, and how to ensure equitable access for teachers and learners, whether in urban or rural settings. This is a book about how Africans adopt and adapt ICT. It is also about how ICT shape African schools and classrooms. Why do we use ICT, or not? Do girls and boys use them in the same ways? How are teachers and students in primary and secondary schools in Africa using ICT in teaching and learning? How does the process transform relations among learners, educators and knowledge construction? This collection by 19 researchers from Africa, Europe, and North America, explores these questions from a pedagogical perspective and specific socio-cultural contexts. Many of the contributors draw on learning theory and survey data from 36 schools, 66000 students and 3000 teachers. The book is rich in empirical detail on the perceived importance and appropriation of ICT in the development of education in Africa. It critically examines the potential for creative use of ICT to question habits, change mindsets, and deepen practice. The contributions are in both English and French.

Book Description
The multifaceted work of the late Susan Leigh Star is explored through a selection of her writings and essays by friends and colleagues. Susan Leigh Star (1954–2010) was one of the most influential science studies scholars of the last several decades. In her work, Star highlighted the messy practices of discovering science, asking hard questions about the marginalizing as well as the liberating powers of science and technology. In the landmark work Sorting Things Out, Star and Geoffrey Bowker revealed the social and ethical histories that are deeply embedded in classification systems. Star's most celebrated concept was the notion of boundary objects: representational forms—things or theories—that can be shared between different communities, with each holding its own understanding of the representation. Unfortunately, Leigh was unable to complete a work on the poetics of infrastructure that further developed the full range of her work. This volume collects articles by Star that set out some of her thinking on boundary objects, marginality, and infrastructure, together with essays by friends and colleagues from a range of disciplines—from philosophy of science to organization science—that testify to the wide-ranging influence of Star's work.

Book Description
CALL Research Perspectives creates a foundation for the study and practice of computer-assisted language learning and provides an overview of ways to conceptualize and to conduct research in CALL. Its core assumptions are that all approaches to research have a place, and that researchers, teachers, and students all have a role to play in the study of computer-enhanced language learning. This is not a how-to-do-research text. Written by top researchers in the field, it offers an open-ended view of what educators need to know and be able to do to answer questions that they have. It is intended to be easy to read, to provide resources for readers to explore the ideas further, and to be non-prescriptive in presenting suggestions for CALL research. The text explores problems with current CALL research and suggests ways that teachers and other researchers can avoid such problems; presents both commonly known and less explored theories that provide a foundation for CALL and language research; and addresses other issues and ideas that affect research outcomes. An outstanding feature of CALL Research Perspectives is that it complements not only other CALL texts but also research texts of all kinds. The issues found in each chapter parallel the issues in other research texts, making this text useful for addressing the needs of teachers and researchers at different levels and in different contexts. In addition, the consistent format throughout makes it accessible to readers with a variety of backgrounds. Each chapter includes an introduction, a review of relevant literature, a set of examples and/or suggestions for conducting research in CALL, and conclusions. The consistent format is intended for ease of use, but the content of chapters varies according to the author. This is intentional; it is a strength of the book that readers can hear the voices of the authors and listen to their understandings of the perspectives presented. It is the editors' hope that they will be inspired to seek out other voices as well.
