TL;DR: In this paper , a recherche on composantes du bien-être des étudiants et leur résilience, and détudes de cases d'approches pédagogiques ré-enchantant l’école is presented.
Abstract: La montée du mal-être gagne l’école et préoccupe le politique. Il interroge nos modèles éducatifs au-delà de l’apprentissage traditionnel, sur le bien-être et le bonheur à l’école ; particulièrement, les approches pédagogiques et la formation du corps enseignant. Quel « enseignant heureux » pour « faire un élève heureux » ? Issue d’une recherche sur les composantes du bien-être des étudiants et leur résilience, et d’études de cas d’approches pédagogiques « ré-enchantant l’école », cet article souligne l’importance du capital émotionnel et du leadership capacitant de l’enseignant et la nécessité d’une approche du bien-être centrée sur les potentiels et la vitalité analysée dans une perspective positive et eudémonique du bien-être via le paradigme de la bienvivance.
TL;DR: In this article , a single-centre observational pilot study comprising the setting up and analysis of parallel charts in two classes of 5th and 6th year students in a Paediatric Dentistry Department in France was conducted.
Abstract: INTRODUCTION
Narrative medicine is a novel approach aimed at attending to the socio-emotional aspects of illness and care. Parallel charts represent one of the tools of narrative medicine and are brief accounts of care in which practitioners can express their feelings and emotions toward patients and treatments. They are therefore intended to collect practitioners' feedback in the form of "narrative" tools to encourage reflection.
MATERIALS AND METHOD
This is a single-centre observational pilot study comprising the setting up and analysis of parallel charts in two classes of 5th and 6th year students in a Paediatric Dentistry Department in France. Forty-four students completed 126 parallel charts. A qualitative, thematic, analysis was conducted and the charts were also classified according to the three types of description of illness made by Arthur Kleinman.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
This work showed that dental students mainly compiled parallel charts from a disease-centred perspective. The qualitative analysis identified the various themes addressed by the student: relationship with patients and managing children's anxiety, student stress, relationship with the environment or with lecturers.
CONCLUSION
The qualitative analysis highlighted the usefulness of compiling parallel charts by the students to allow them to express both positive and negative feelings, and thus to adopt a self-evaluative approach regarding their practices based on emotional impact. Parallel charts may improve patient-practitioner relationship, but more extensive studies over longer periods of time need to be undertaken.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the possibility of using Local Initiative Complementary Training Programmes in Post-secondary Education (FCILs) as a means of preparing and regulating qualities and "school-compagny" interaction may be seen as a more efficient form of nonmarketable coordination than the market one's.
Abstract: Interaction between schools and companies through Local Initiative Complementary Training Programmes in Post-secondary Education - Formation Complementaire d'Initiative Locale - (FCIL), permits both the integration and adaptation to employment of young people who have received «standard» training in the education system. Investment Theory (Thevenot, 1986), FCILs by being adjusted locally to company needs, may be examined as a means of preparing and regulating qualities and "school-compagny" interaction may be seen as a more efficient form of non-marketable coordination than the market one's.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present the institutional framework of the vocational baccalaureat (VETBac) track in the French initial secondary education system and give some insights into the convergence and divergence of the conditions of competence development of trainees or students with a workplace learning focus in those two organizations.
Abstract: The creation of the vocational baccalaureat track in 1985 contributed to a major innovation in the French initial secondary education system. In its objective and in its innovative way of learning combining sandwich courses (workplace and school-based learning), this programme offers students who were failing at school a path for continuing their studies or a springboard into a new career or professional plan. This diploma has been implemented in different ways: through student status or in apprenticeships, and through the responsibility of the Ministry of Education in vocational high schools, but also through those under the responsibility of the Ministry of Agriculture, as for the Maisons familiales rurales (MFR). First, this paper will present the institutional framework: what is the vocational baccalaureat (VETBac) diploma, what are its roles and purposes? As the national French system of education from the Ministry of Education has been the subject of a number of articles in European VET reviews (Gendron, 2005). This diploma has been set up and implemented in different ways: through student status or in apprenticeships, through the responsibility of the Ministry of Education in vocational high schools, but also under the responsibility of the Ministry of Agriculture as, for instance, in the Maisons familiales rurales (the two foci of the present paper). First, this paper will present the institutional framework: what is the vocational baccalaureat (VETBac) diploma, what are its roles and purposes? And, as the national French system of education from the Ministry of Education has been the subject of a number of articles in European VET reviews (Gendron, 2005), the Maison familiale rurale (MFR) system, which is less known, and its philosophy will be presented more in details here. The second part will give some insights into the convergence and divergence of the conditions of competence development of vocational baccalaureat trainees or students with a workplace learning focus in those two organizations.

TL;DR: This paper explore existing conceptualisations of emotional capital in educational research, and undertake a critical analysis of these conceptualisations, including a reflection on my own explorations of teachers' and students' emotional practices, drawing from Bourdieu's work, and offer a theoretical discussion of how emotional capital as a conceptual tool suggests a historically situated analysis of the often unrecognised mechanisms and emotion norms serving to maintain certain "affective economies".
Abstract: This article seeks to explore existing conceptualisations of emotional capital in educational research, and to undertake a critical analysis of these conceptualisations, including a reflection on my own explorations of teachers’ and students’ emotional practices. Drawing from Bourdieu's work, I offer a theoretical discussion of how emotional capital as a conceptual tool suggests a historically situated analysis of the often unrecognised mechanisms and emotion norms serving to maintain certain ‘affective economies’. This point is made in reference to a brief discussion of my ongoing ethnographic work over the last ten years. I conclude the article with outlining some new possibilities of theorising the potentiality and usefulness of the concept of emotional capital in the field of educational research.

TL;DR: In this article, a question naturelle est de savoir si les salaires plus eleves des travailleurs âges correspondent, ou non, a productivite plus elevee.
Abstract: En moyenne, les salaires croissent avec l'âge. Une question naturelle est de savoir si les salaires plus eleves des travailleurs âges correspondent, ou non, a une productivite plus elevee. La reponse a cette question n'est pas sans consequence sur l'employabilite de ces travailleurs âges. Estimee comme la « contribution » des differentes classes d'âge a la productivite des entreprises, la productivite des salaries croit avec l'âge jusqu'a 40 ans, avant de se stabiliser. Le profil de la productivite suit d'assez pret celui des remunerations. En particulier, il n'apparait pas d'ecart marquant entre salaire et productivite, si ce n'est aux âges les plus eleves (plus de 55 ans). Ces resultats restent neanmoins assez peu precis, car il est difficile d'extraire des relations causales de l'âge des salaries sur la productivite des entreprises a partir des simples correlations entre production et structure de la main-d'oeuvre. En particulier, les salaries âges sont plus nombreux dans les entreprises anciennes et peu efficaces, et representent une partie de la main-d'oeuvre qui s'ajustent moins rapidement aux chocs de productivite. Il en resulte un biais dans l'estimation de la productivite, dont la correction ne peut se faire qu'au prix de resultats moins precis. En outre, les resultats ne concernent que les salaries en emploi, et non l'ensemble des individus
