Nous proposerons donc une théorie de la rationalisation du jeu (ludification) décrivant les composants clés des jeux socialement rationalisés ; une théorie que nous appliquerons alors à l’exemple spécifique des jeux en ligne massivement multijoueurs (MMOG, pour Massively Multiplayer Online Games).…”

Réflexions sur la place du Moyen Âge dans les programmes de français au collège by Philippe Haugeard

“…S’il faut se féliciter de l’apparition, dans les nouveaux programmes de français au collège, de la notion de « questionnement » associée au choix et à l’étude des textes littéraires, on peut regretter que cette apparition ne se soit pas accompagnée d’une réflexion nouvelle sur la place du Moyen Âge, lequel continue de n’être explicitement recommandé que dans les classes de 6ème et de 5ème, comme si la littérature médiévale constituait naturellement une sorte de littérature pour la jeunesse, voire pour l’enfance, ce qu’elle n’est évidemment pas. Il convient donc, d’une part, de condamner l’édulcoration mutilante dont la littérature médiévale se trouve être régulièrement l’objet (voir les manuels scolaires), et, d’autre part, de revendiquer pour elle la place qu’appellent la nature, la complexité et la diversité de son potentiel de questionnement, sans aucun doute susceptibles d’attiser la curiosité et de susciter l’intérêt d’esprits déjà formés, comme ceux des adolescents ou des jeunes adultes.…”

BIPOC Community Perspectives on Environmental Justice in Georgia by Stephanie Cho, LP Green, Marianne Chung, Julia Lee-Hong, Darlene Xiomara Rodriguez

“…The resulting exclusion of Black, Indigenous, and other people of color’s (BIPOC) experiences, perspectives, and leadership from environmental policy and conservation work has created significant blind spots that further perpetuate inequality (Jones, 2020). In a moment of reckoning, the historically white-led environmental and climate justice movements have begun to acknowledge the exclusion of people of color and its detrimental effects on BIPOC peoples and the movement overall. …”
