Role of ICT on memorial activities in the remote co understanding of a scientific text in French in context multilingual

Abstract

This research aims to develop and validate (i) processing aids for scientific texts in French L1 in multilingual contexts through hyperlinks and (ii) tools for pre- and post-test assessment as concept maps. An analysis of complex system biology and homeostasis composed of subsystems has given rise to an experimental text consisting of intraand intersystem information as well as hyperlinks consisting of both types of information. Participants perform three readings followed by three reminders, playing without help, reading with hyperlinks and additional information of type intra- (G1) or intersystem (G2), and a remote reading in pairs. The group G2 pairs demonstrate the best recall. Concept maps post-test indicate that they have understood and integrated scientific concepts and causal links between concepts. The effect of L1/L2 interactions in the application of knowledge and their inclusion in word processing are discussed.
