Research evidence on the instructional strategies used in French classes in Quebec secondary schools which particularly participate in the development of students' writing skills is incomplete and difficult to compare. To complete and interpret this knowledge, we draw on the experience-based knowledge of teachers (Tardif, & Lessard, 1999) by leading a deliberative workshop (Dogba, Dossa, & Dagenais, 2017) with six experienced teachers. At the end, three sets of instructional strategies are chosen: showing students examples of texts or writing strategies; making students write (more); offering students a variety of feedbacks.

SummaryThe purpose of this article is to identify strategies developed by mediators, as well as their antecedents. Based on a quantitative survey conducted with 51 Joint Committee Presidents acting as mediators at the professional branch level, this research brings two main results.Firstly, it distinguishes between two strategies developed by the mediator: the support strategy and the interventionist strategy. The former allows the mediator to bring parties in conflict to agreement. Conversely, the latter has no direct effect on the resolution of the agreement. However, our results show the existence of an indirect effect of an interventionist strategy. Furthermore, this is shown to be effective when it is associated with a support strategy.Secondly, the intervention of a third-party expert or authority, as a follow-up to the parties' activities outside the mediation room, facilitates the interventionist strategy, while the parties' competence, especially when there is regular contact with these parties, is linked to the support strategy. Going beyond descriptive approaches, this work promotes a better understanding of the mediator's behaviour, reflecting dynamic and complex interventions during the mediation process.This research reflects a new starting point in understanding the dynamics of mediation in a context where the role of the social parties defining social regulation is strengthened. The authors suggest integrating into the analysis of mediation dynamics contextual and personal factors linked to the different actors, such as the mediator, stakeholders, and external third parties.The limits of this research lie in the size of its sample, as well as the absence of a triangulation of sources that would have allowed the authors to obtain a clearer vision of the mediator's action. Moreover, this study was conducted in France and therefore the possible existence of cultural bias cannot be excluded.This work, however, opens up multiple perspectives for research on the subject of the role of the mediator in the dynamic context of mediation.

AbstractThis paper provides new developments in job search theory, incorporating a duality in search strategies which compose the offer rate. Two strategies are modelled. A first one, called passive strategy, consists in searching exclusively in the spatial area of the public employment agency. The alternative strategy allows to extend search area, using other media, like networks or advertisements. Introducing this duality leads us to ambiguous effects of search strategies on the theoretical exit rate. A micro-econometric estimation allows us to overcome this difficulty. A two-step method is chosen in order to, first, study the strategies' selection rule and, second, to take into account multiple destinations after unemployment and possible unobserved heterogeneity in the duration model. Results highlight the selectivity of the search strategies' choice, in particular the role of spatial constraints. Besides, they conclude to discriminate impacts of job search strategies on exit rates, according to the job found.
