Résumé : (Ownership) Received by the Rubenstein Library as a gift from Holly Ackerman in 2009
Over the years, several children have been the sole survivors of raft voyages. In 1999-2000, one of these children, Elián González, became the center of an international custody dispute between his relatives in Miami and his father who lived in Cuba. His mother was lost at sea during the crossing. The set of postcards shown here were prepared by the Cuban government.

Résumé : International audience
This paper shows how the notion of “local site of a question” helps the teacher to get into this question in order to teach it. We discuss the relationship between the description of what has to be deeply known to answer the difficulties or the obstacles which arise for the pupils during the study of a question, and what Shulman, and his successors, model under the name of pedagogical content knowledge. A survey, conducted among current French teachers, shows how they are powerless when facing the difficulties of their pupils and a study of some old teaching books shows how this problem was addressed in former teaching practices. Based on these results, we open the discussion of the training of the teachers.
L’article montre l’usage possible de la notion de « site local d’une question » dans le travail du professeur se préparant à enseigner cette question. On discute à cette occasion les proximités entre la description de ce qu’il y a à savoir profondément, pour répondre aux difficultés ou obstacles que rencontreront les élèves au cours de l’étude d’une question, et ce que Shulman et ses successeurs modélisent sous le terme de « pedagogical content knowledge ». Une enquête auprès de professeurs actuels montre comment ils sont démunis face aux difficultés des élèves, et une enquête dans des ouvrages d’enseignement anciens montre comment le problème soulevé a été traité en pratique par l’enseignement traditionnel. L’article discute alors le problème de la formation que les professeurs seraient en droit d’attendre.

Résumé : International audience
The French education system remains highly centralized and only allows limited local adaptations for overseas territories. For example, if some laws (the last in 2013) allow the use of regional languages (e.g. Creole in the French West Indies) when they constitute a relevant contribution to the teaching, many official texts remain mainly based on the geographical, economical, historical, environment of the French mainland. We focus on some French BTS (Brevet de Technicien Supérieur / Advanced Technician Certificate), namely tourism and assistant manager, which are two important diplomas for the local development and in which microeconomic and management sciences plays a great part. The French BTS is a professional diploma prepared in two years after the “baccalauréat”, with national programs and evaluation criteria. The successful candidates are supposed to be immediately employable, especially in their local geographical environment. Thus, there exists a paradox between the national definition of the diploma and the local contexts of teaching. We discuss how teachers concretely deal with this situation on a day-to-day basis. Our hypothesis is that they act pragmatically, using their practical pedagogical content knowledge, without theoretical support for their action. In order to verify this hypothesis, we have conducted semi-structured interview with Guadeloupian teachers of the two aforementioned BTS. The main results shows that teachers adapt the national framework of the diploma, essentially by using local examples. This can be called a weak contextualization of the national texts. Indeed, these adaptations remain limited by fear of disadvantaging the students for the national exam. In addition, many context effects are shown, for example linked with local rules (concerning VAT, custom duties...) which are only partially taken into account by teachers. This demonstrates that the French educative system has not yet completely solved the opposition between national guideline and decentralization of the educational action.

Milk is one of 19 the most frequently monitored foodstuffs in the vicinity of chronic release of radionuclides, as 20 it is a very common product and also because it integrates deposition on large areas of grass at 21 a local scale. Different parameters have been studied to assess their impact on the reliability 22 of tritium measurements. The volume of the sample, the technique used to extract the water 23 and the level of dehydration modulate the results but in different ways: dispersion of results, 24 under-or overestimation of the tritium activity. The influence of sample storage and 25 preparation has also been investigated. Methodological improvements of tritium 26 measurements in the free water of milk are proposed. 27 28

Résumé : International audience
A detailed rock-magnetic and archeointensity study was carried out on materials baked by a western Mexican artisan following traditional techniques to produce faithful reproductions of archeological pieces of the Michoacan region (Western Mesoamerica). The field strength at the site (41.0 +/- 0.51 mu T) was measured with a fluxgate magnetometer and the temperature of the furnace during the baking process was monitored continually by means of a thermocouple placed in the middle of the baking cavity.;Rock-magnetic experiments performed on the raw material (clay and paste) and on in situ prepared baked ceramics and bricks included measurement of thermomagnetic curves (susceptibility and strong-field magnetization versus temperature), first-order reversal curves (FORC), anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) and anisotropy of thermoremanent magnetization (A-TRM). Magnetite and probably hematite are present in the samples as carriers of the remanence. Hysteresis ratios suggest that the samples fall in the pseudo-single-domain grain size region, which may indicate a mixture of multidomain and a significant amount of single-domain grains.;Ceramic pieces and brick fragments were subjected to the Thellier-Coe archeointensity method and to an alternative paleointensity experiment, with a TRIAXE magnetometer, in order to check whether they are faithful recorders of the local geomagnetic field strength.;Mean raw-intensity of sample M1 (pottery) overestimates a 7% the expected site intensity, while those corresponding to the brick samples (LQ1 and LQ2) underestimate it 15%. Brick sample LNQ shows a slightly lower intensity (7%), but agrees with the expected site intensity within the experimental uncertainty. The intensity retrieved from the volcanic fragment also included closely reproduces the expected intensity. After A-TRM and cooling-rate corrections, all mean raw values move closer to the expected intensity.;Measurement of temperatures at different parts inside the kiln (bottom and upper parts of both central and peripheral parts) revealed the existence of significant thermal gradients, similar to those observed in ovens from other localities. Different cooling rates are then expected in a single oven.;The scatter in the intensity determinations observed in this study, retrieved from pieces elaborated together in the same oven, could arise from this differentiated cooling rate within the oven and thus, to an inappropriate cooling rate correction in the archeointensity protocol. As this situation was probably reproduced in the baking of ancient ceramic artifacts, a better knowledge of the temperature distribution inside these types of kiln would be desirable in order to choose the appropriate cooling rate correction.

Résumé :  
A method for measuring shrinkage resulting from drying in the three anisotropic directions is developed and tested. Measurements are performed on sawn discs, a technique which simplifies preparation and enables large numbers of measurements. Shrinkage values can be represented as a map of the disc surface. The results indicate that comparisons between shrinkage distribution and tension wood distribution on the discs show a clear relationship and can be measured with relatively high accuracy in reference to the "shrinkage map". In the long term, this method could be useful in the timber industry as a means for choosing the direction in which logs are cut depending on their type of wood composition.
