Abstract

This chapter presents, in the light of the most recent work, the main results of a research conducted by Dorsaf Ben Ismail (2011) as part of her thesis, which aims to elaborate and validate experimentally some means as hypertext to understand a scientific text in foreign language L2 (French) describing a complex area of human biology: the physiological regulation phenomena and an assessment tool pre and post-test for knowledge constructed in the form of conceptual graphics. According Graesser, Leon and Otero (2002), scientific texts readers are generally unable to develop a clear mental picture, correct and coherent with such field, and thus to understand the texts that describe this field. The results of this research allowed doing some advanced steps in the relationship between representation of knowledge in memory, comprehension of scientific text and systems that help in comprehension in multilingual context. These advanced steps are considered very useful in the era of globalization and the widespread use of the Internet and social networks (Mueller-Frank, 2013).
