L'Aventure des hommes de la préhistoire
Origines de l'homme
auteurs : Jean CHAVAILLON, Yves COPPENS, Henry de LUMLEY
Un important congrès réunissant plus de 3 000 spécialistes venus de 88 pays s'est tenu en 1976, à Nice, pour faire le point des connaissances sur les origines de l'homme. Sept spécialistes interviewés expliquent cette évolution depuis 70 millions d'années (depuis l'ère tertiaire et à partir des ancêtres des primates) jusqu'à 6 millions d'années avec le grand tournant des aust
Jung speaks of Freud
Jung parle de Freud.
Une interview spontanée du Pr. Carl Jung dans sa résidence de Zurich le 7 août 1957. Le psychologue y expose tout d'abord l'éveil de sa vocation et l'influence exercée alors sur lui par les théories psycho-analytiques de Freud. Il explique ensuite comment ses propres théories en sont venues à différer de celles de son maître sur des points tels que le rôle de la sexualité dans les motivations humaines, les concepts de répression, d'inconscient et de co
Technologies digitales et éducation : de l'observation des pratiques à l'innovation
Comment introduire les nouvelles technologies dans l’éducation ?
Face aux stratégies descendantes souvent décevantes, ou aux initiatives ascendantes considérées illégitimes, une troisième voie se dessine : l'observation des transformations induites dans la société par les pratiques communicatives et l’usage des technologies les plus efficaces.
Venez découvrir ces pratiques et leurs effets potentiels sur l'éducation avec Stefana Broadbent (Professeur d’A
Nouvelles technologies, imaginaire et créativité
Cette conférence a été filmée le 6 décembre 2011 dans le cadre du séminaire annuel « Changements institutionnels, risques et vulnérabilités sociales », au programme du Master recherche de Sociologie de l'Université de Caen. Initié dans les années 1990, ce séminaire est actuellement dirigé par Salvador Juan, professeur de sociologie à l'Université de Caen.
Comment la sociologie se saisit-elle de la santé, de la maladie et de la médecine?
En parallèle à l'exposition EnQuête de Santé, le MEB / Musée d'Ethnographie de l'Université Bordeaux Segalen et le département d'Anthropologie organisent un cycle de conférence sur le thème de la santé.
Janine Pierret, sociologue au CNRS, raconte comment la Médecine et la Santé, longtemps explorées d'un point de vue sociologique par les seuls médecins, sont enfin devenues de véritables objets d'étude pour les sociologues. Elle retrace notamment les différentes éta

Accelerators and Nobel Laureates
This online article written by Sven Kullander at the Nobel e-Museum discusses the importance of particle accelerators to physics in a historical context. After studying their basic operatation, users can then learn about the many accelerator inventions and their assistance in various discoveries such as x-rays and electrons. The website provides links to descriptions of the many Nobel Prize winners who have utilized accelerators in their important work. Users can view images of the large acceler
Theory and Application of Categories
This is the homepage of an online journal that disseminates "articles that significantly advance the study of categorical algebra or methods, or that make significant new contributions to mathematical science using categorical methods." A new volume is published each year, consisting of between ten and twenty research papers. The journal commonly focuses on the applications of category theory to computer science, algebra, topology, and other scientific areas. Papers are contributed by researcher
Antarctic Meteorology Online from the British Antarctic Survey
The Antarctic Meteorology Online Web site is provided by the British Antarctic Survey and the Natural Environment Research Council. Visitors will find weather reports provided by the dozens of stations located in the Antarctic. The Web master has made these data accessible by each specific station; by a clickable map; by a list of all land, ship, or buoy stations; or by an oracle database interface. The reports are at least 10 minutes old and are normally not more than six hours old. The informa

Ice, Ice, PV!
Students examine how the power output of a photovoltaic (PV) solar panel is affected by temperature changes. Using a 100-watt lamp and a small PV panel connected to a digital multimeter, teams vary the temperature of the panel and record the resulting voltage output. They plot the panel’s power output and calculate the panel’s temperature coefficient.
