Złota dama. Gustav Klimt i tajemnica wiedeńskiej Mona Lisy
ANNE-MARIE O’CONNOR OPOWIADA BURZLIWĄ HISTORIĘ XX WIEKU POPRZEZ LOSY UKOCHANEJ MUZY KLIMTA. Był rok 1898 i wydawało się, że w Wiedniu tańczy sam diabeł. Jedna z najwspanialszych stolic Europy była miastem bohemy, sztuki i artystów, ale jednocześnie wkraczała w nowy wiek z największą liczbą samobójców. Nadchodził czas zmian, paradoksów i pogoni za nowoczesnością. Właśnie wtedy ekscentryczny malarz postanowił ubrać modernistyczny Wiedeń w bizantyjskie złoto. Gustaw Klimt spotkał Adelę Bloch-Bauer i zakochał się w jej zmysłowych ustach, półprzymkniętych oczach oraz intelekcie. Uwieczniając ją na jednym ze swoich najsłynniejszych obrazów, dał jej wszystko, czego pragnęła – podziw i nieśmiertelność. Złota dama olśniła Wiedeń. Portret Żydówki uwiódł nawet Adolfa Hitlera. Był jednym z najcenniejszych skarbów Austrii, również wtedy, gdy krajem rządzili naziści, którzy bezlitośnie wymordowali rodzinę i przyjaciół Adeli. Jakie tajemnice kryje arcydzieło Klimta? Czy modelka była tylko muzą malarza, czy także jego kochanką? Co widziały smutne oczy z obrazu, gdy podczas wojny dewastowano piękny Wiedeń Adeli? I jak to się stało, że Złotą damę możemy dziś podziwiać w odległym Nowym Jorku? ZA HISTORIĄ WIEDEŃSKIEJ MONA LISY KRYJE SIĘ HISTORIA EPOKI „Fascynująca, ambitna, przenikliwa... Niezwykła opowieść o sztuce i czasach Holokaustu”. The Washington Post

Enseignement des langues en immersion

Enseignement des langues en immersion
L’apprentissage d’une langue en immersion est un phénomène ancien qui revient régulièrement dans les débats contemporains sur l’acquisition de compétences langagières. Cet ouvrage constitue une réflexion en trois temps sur cette immersion. Tout d’abord, il s’agit d’établir un état des lieux des connaissances didactiques sur l’éducation immersive. Ensuite, l’auteur propose de considérer l’immersion comme un concept philosophique qui oppose institutions scolaires et société civile. Vient ensuite l’exemple de l’Irlande et de son bilinguisme.

Epistémologie à usage didactique

Epistémologie à usage didactique
Parce que la langue de spécialité est à la fois objet de recherche et d''enseignement, parce que bon nombre de revues scientifiques du domaine publient régulièrement des articles pédagogiques et didactiques, cet ouvrage adopte une perspective didactique sur l''épistémologie émergente de la discipline. Cependant, une question se pose : comment dépasser le cadre strictement institutionnel et fonder, unifier la pratique et la réflexion épistémologique pour l''ancrer dans la didactique des langues vivantes étrangères. Le deuxième axe de cette réflexion « épistémologique à usage didactique » s''inscrit dans le champ de la praxéologie car il n''existe pas de « savoir en soi et pour soi ».

Assessment of Postural Responses to Challenging Virtual Reality Environments in Healthy Adults

Assessment of Postural Responses to Challenging Virtual Reality Environments in Healthy Adults
Balance is a common term that is usually represented as the center of pressure (COP) for standing balance. With increasing age, adults begin to show more postural sway, which can be a marker for higher risk of falls. Among those with balance issues, challenging environments can increase this risk. Challenges can occur because of difficult terrain, dynamic perturbations, and visual stimuli. As challenging environments are difficult to replicate experimentally, this study investigates balance response to different environments using Virtual Reality (VR). This study seeks to characterize differences in standing balance response between age groups, determine which VR environments (VRE) elicit the greatest postural responses, and justify the safety of VR. The VREs used were selected for the variety of individual postural responses that they could elicit. The study uses force plate data to assess center of pressure metrics of standard deviation, range, and frequency power. This study uses motion capture data to assess segment and marker-based measures of standard deviation, range, and total path length. Healthy adult participants were grouped into age brackets of Young (n=15, 19.8℗ł0.7), Middle (n=14, 47.3℗ł9.9), and Older (n=8, 68℗ł5.8). The participants performed a standing balance task for seven randomized VREs, each a duration of sixty seconds, and baseline Eyes Open and Eyes Closed before and after VR exposure. The VREs used were a mix of dynamic/static virtual platforms and dynamic/static visuals. Body segment motion was recorded with motion capture markers and accelerometers. Two different marker approaches for the motion capture was used (single marker and segment) to accurately track the body segments. The Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) was used to determine the power of frequency contributions to postural sway response in different frequency bands associated with different sensory systems (0-0.3 Hz for visual system, 0.3-1 Hz for vestibular system, and 1-3 Hz for proprioceptive system).When comparing baseline Eyes Open to VRE, age group was a significant factor in the frequency power in the medial-lateral plane Middle band and COP path length assessments. Generally, Middle group had the least amount of sway, then Young group, followed by Older group. Frequency power in the Low and Middle bands and segment path length demonstrated increased postural sway responses for environments with dynamic visuals and platforms. Both marker approaches were consistent but with the Power value just over 0.7 suggests more subjects are needed. Exposure to dynamic environments in VR, specifically Train or Boat Day, may benefit individuals with balance impairments by providing safe conditions under which to practice balance responses. Overall, frequency power results suggest underlying reweighting of sensory inputs under dynamic VRE conditions with increased weighting of the vestibular system and decreased weighting of the visual system. This study has also confirmed that short exposure to a headset-based VR is safe and can be an effective tool to evaluate standing balance. The results from this study can be used as age-matched healthy data for other populations. For these impaired populations, exposure to VRE may serve as a therapeutic tool to quantify and practice balance and to improve overall quality of life.

Speech Language Impairments in Utah

Speech Language Impairments in Utah
An unusually high percentage of kindergarten students begin school in Utah with a speech or language impairment. These impairments can affect the academic and social capabilities of these children. Prior research has demonstrated the long term effects language impairments can have upon the life of a child as well. Family stress associated with the difficulty of communication can be compounded when parents are unable to find solutions to help their child. Research and analysis of parent’s awareness of speech milestones and implications upon the life of their child was investigated. The analysis of parental experiences as they sought a referral and speech therapy services revealed a wide range of issues. State policy and programs were investigated to help provide an understanding of their role and impact upon this study group. Utah is in the process of making vital changes in an attempt to address this problem. Additional research will be necessary to ensure these changes will sufficiently meet the needs of families who have children with speech and language impairments.
