Constructing Oneself as a Teacher of History: Case Studies of the Journey to the Other Side of the Desk by Preservice Teachers in England and AmericaHicks, David 29 September 1999 (has links)
The research described in this dissertation has its antecedents in my own experiences as a student and teacher of history in both England and the USA. Reflecting back on such experiences as a teacher educator in the US has led to a hypothesis that history teaching is conceptualized and performed differently by teachers in England and the US. This study used contrasting case studies of two English and two American preservice history teachers to illuminate and compare how the development of their understanding of history and evolving construction of self as history teacher influenced their everyday pedagogical performances as they began to teach history.
Detailed portraits of teaching developed for this study show how the pedagogical approach to teaching history with an emphasis on developing historical understanding through learning the skills of the discipline of history in England contrast with the American emphasis on content coverage through the pedagogy of telling the tale of the past. The study revealed the participant's adherence to these two contrasting traditions in the teaching of history. This can be understood by examining two continually interweaving components: 1) well remembered events, and interactions associated with learning history and history teaching that form a "biographic conception" of history teaching, and 2) ongoing experiences and expected outcomes of planning and teaching history in a particular way. Within the scope of this study, particular attention was given to the participant's contextual understandings of: A) official history curriculum, B) their cooperating teacher and C) their students as they began to plan and teach history within their internship.
The case studies compare and describe how the participants' biographic conceptions of both history and history teaching act as a filter through which the differing expectations of their respective history curriculum, their cooperating teacher and departments were mediated and negotiated. While the biographic conception of history exerted an enduring influence on their understanding of what it means to learn and study history in high school, the study revealed that the participants' ongoing classroom interactions with their students in conjunction with meeting the expectations of their cooperating teachers and departments constrained and limited the participants' perspectives as to what they believed was possible within the history classroom. The case studies here highlight the interactive forces and complexity of learning to become a teacher of history and have further implications for exploring the possibilities and constraints of two competing traditions in the teaching of history. This comparative study raises questions and opportunities for examining such epistemological questions as What is history? and How should it be taught in high school? The work shows that the role of history teacher can be and should be more than a teller of the tale of the past. It also highlights the problems faced by teachers and students when the primary goal of history is focused on the difficult task of learning historical skills and concepts. However, if the goals of history teaching in the US are truly for the development of knowledgeable, critically thinking citizens, then teacher educators must begin to provide opportunities and create communities of practice which encourage preservice teachers to not only break their attachment to the pedagogy of telling but also develop their skills to think historically to the end of organizing learning experiences that emphasize the doing of history within their classrooms. / Ph.

Vozes indígenas do Canadá e da Austrália: autobiografia, identidade e (hi)estórias em Halfbreed de Maria Campbell e My place de Sally Morgan. / Indigenous voices from Canada and Australia: autobiography, identity and (hi)stories in Maria Campbell's Halfbreed and Sally Morgan's My place.Marcella Oliveira de Sousa 20 March 2007 (has links)
Essa dissertação tem como objetivo analisar as autobiografias de Maria Campbell, Halfbreed, e Sally Morgan, My Place, levando em consideração aspectos de cunho histórico, político, étnico e social do Canadá e da Austrália. Além disso, a dissertação aborda a busca das escritoras por suas identidades indígena canadense e aborígine australiana, respectivamente. Para investigação do tema escolhido realizo um estudo sobre autobiografia destacando seu contexto histórico, sua relação com o sujeito autobiográfico com base em questões de gênero e etnia. Para análise das questões de gênero uso a teoria e crítica feminista, enquanto que as questões étnicas busco fundamentar na teoria e crítica pós-colonial. Para o estudo da obra de Maria Campbell entrelaço questões de cunho autobiográfico, fatores históricos canadenses e a questão da mulher indígena no Canadá. A análise de Halfbreed também busca tratar do sujeito feminino de origem métis em busca de sua identidade, igualdade e dignidade. Quanto à My Place, o processo de análise também envolveu um estudo de autobiografia a partir de uma perspectiva aborígine feminina australiana, o que trouxe à tona questões identitárias do sujeito feminino pós-colonial e questões históricas referentes à Austrália. A análise de My Place enfatiza a busca de Sally Morgan por sua identidade e pelo passado de sua família, marcado por lembranças, estórias, dor, perda e esperança. / This dissertation aims at analyzing the autobiographies by Maria Campbell, Halfbreed, and Sally Morgan, My Place taking into consideration historical, political, ethnic and social aspects of Canada and Australia. Besides, this dissertation refers to the writers search for their Indigenous Canadian and Aboriginal Australian identities, respectively. To investigate the chosen theme, I approach the autobiographical genre emphasizing its historical context, its relationship to the autobiographical subject based on gender and ethnic issues. Concerning the analysis of gender issues it was necessary to refer to Feminist theories and criticism, whereas discussions regarding ethnic issues were based on Post-Colonial theory and criticism. In the analysis of Maria Campbells work I discuss issues related to autobiography, Canadian history and to Indigenous Canadian women. Halfbreeds analysis also considers the condition of the female Métis Canadian subject in search of identity, equality and dignity. As far as My Place is concerned, the analysis was a process which involved a study of the autobiographical genre from a female Aboriginal Australian perspective. The analysis raises questions related to the identity of the postcolonial subject and Australias historical context. My Places analysis also emphasizes Morgans search for identity and for her familys past, which is marked by memories, stories, pain, loss and hope.

Diaries real and fictional in twentieth-century French writingFerguson, Samuel James January 2014 (has links)
Whereas the relationship between real autobiography and its fictional forms has been studied at length, the equivalent relationship for diaries has barely been acknowledged, let alone explored. This thesis follows the history of diary-writing – as a field that includes real and fictional diaries and the complex relations between them – in twentieth-century French writing. I take as my starting point the moment in the 1880s when, following a series of successful posthumous diary publications, a new generation of writers became aware that their own journaux intimes would probably come to be published, with considerable consequences for the way their literary œuvre and their very persona as an author (or their textual author-figure) would appear to readers. Of this generation, André Gide exerted by far the greatest influence over the course of diary-writing, and four works in particular experiment, in extremely diverse forms, with the literary possibilities of the diary: Les Cahiers d'André Walter (1891), Paludes (1895), Le Journal des faux-monnayeurs (1926), and his Journal 1889–1939 (1939). After the Second World War, diary-writing continued to draw on forms established by Gide, but now inflected by radical changes in attitudes towards the writing subject: Raymond Queneau's works published under the pseudonym of Sally Mara (1947–62) cast light on attitudes towards the diary at the time of a theoretical exclusion of the writing subject; Roland Barthes experimented with diaries at the point of a return of the writing subject (1977–79); and Annie Ernaux's published diaries between 1993 and 2011 demonstrate the role of diary-writing within the modern field of life-writing. Rather than making a gradual progress towards literary recognition, this history of diary-writing shows that, in a great variety of ways, diaries have consistently been used for their marginal or supplementary role, which simultaneously constructs and qualifies a literary œuvre and author-figure.

Fiction, friction and fracture : autobiographic novels as a site for changing discouses [i.e. discourses] around subjectivity, truth and identityLombard, Sunell 03 1900 (has links)
Thesis (MPhil)--Stellenbosch University, 2008. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The concept of the self or subject is more relevant now than ever, since society’s perceptions about
selfhood are in the process of changing. Autobiography is an important site for the critical discussion of
issues surrounding the subject – such as truth, identity formation and agency – seeing that it is one of
the most revealing spaces in which these altering perceptions manifest.
As can be deduced from the title of my thesis, FICTION, FRICTION AND FRACTURE: Autobiographic
Novels as a Site For Changing Discourses Around Subjectivity, Truth and Identity, I explore what
autobiographic novels disclose about the notions truth, self-representation and identity formation that
emerge from an investigation of the subject.
Poststructuralism and feminism have been instrumental in destabilizing the notion of a unified subject
as well as any concept that makes universal claims. Throughout this thesis I will be applying
poststructuralist and feminist theories around subjectivity to my work as well as the work of a selection
of autobiographic novelists, namely Robert Crumb, Dan Clowes, Art Spiegelman and Chris Ware.
When referring to autobiographic novels I will be applying Leigh Gilmore’s term autobiographics.
Autobiographics introduces a way of thinking about life narrative that focuses on the changing
discourses of truth and identity that feature in autobiographical representations of selfhood. I will be
utilizing Gilmore’s term since it so neatly encompasses the concepts that I will be investigating. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die konsep van die self of subjek is nou meer as ooit relevant siende dat die samelewing se
persepsies omtrent die subjek tans ’n transformasie ondergaan. Outobiografie is ’n belangrike
platform vir die kritiese bespreking van idees wat uit besprekings van die subjek vloei – soos
waarheid, identiteits konstruksie en agentskap – aangesien die genre ’n duidelike refleksie van die
veranderende persepsies lewer.
Soos afgelei kan word uit die titel van my skripsie FICTION, FRICTION AND FRACTURE:
Autobiographic Novels as a Site For Changing Discourses Around Subjectivity, Truth and Identity,
beoog ek om vas te stel wat autobiografiese romans blootlê in terme van konsepte soos waarheid,
self-voorstelling en identiteitskonstruksie wat uit die ondersoek rondom die subjek na vore kom.
Poststrukturalisme en feminisme speel beide ‘n belangrike rol in die destabilisering van die
uniformige subjek asook enige ander konsep wat aanspraak tot enige universiële veronderstellings
maak. Ek plaas poststrukturalistiese en feministiese teorie rondom subjektiwiteit deurlopend op my
werk, asook the werk van die outobiografiese kunstenaars Robert Crumb, Dan Clowes, Art
Spiegelman en Chris Ware toe.
Wanneer ek na autobiografiese romans verwys, verwys ek spesifiek na Leigh Gilmore se term
autobiografies. Gilmore se interpretasie behels ‘n begrip van outobiografie wat fokus op die
veranderende diskoerse van waarheid en identiteit wat in outobiografiese voorstellings van die self
voorkom. Ek beoog om haar term te gebruik aangesien dit die konsepte waarna ek kyk duidelik
omvat.

Fostering Fire: Cultural mentorship for Aboriginal girls in foster care on Vancouver IslandRitchie, Katherine 02 January 2015 (has links)
Historically and currently, the federal and provincial or territorial governments of Canada have neglected to ensure that Aboriginal children in foster care receive genuine, Aboriginal-centered cultural support. This research project aims to address the lack of available cultural programming for Aboriginal girls in foster care. Through interviews and a review of current literature, knowledge about cultural programming is examined and components of a successful mentorship model for Aboriginal girls in foster care are identified. Five semi-structured interviews were carried out and analyzed through grounded theory, complemented with autobiographical reflections. The study concludes that there is an evident need for cultural continuity programming for Aboriginal girls in foster care on southern Vancouver Island, British Columbia, and that a mentorship framework is the best applicable model. / Graduate / 0452 / 0631 / 0326 / kr@uvic.ca

Archipel suivi de L'étrangère en son royaume : la psyché du lieu chez Marguerite DurasChantraine, Dominique 08 1900 (has links)
À partir de courts récits, la narratrice reconstitue le passé d’une famille. Le personnage central, une petite fille, est la narratrice qui retrace les événements qui ont mené à l’éclatement de la cellule familiale. Cette histoire autobiographique est rédigée au « elle » dans un souci de se distancier de ce passé. La petite fille a grandi et la narratrice qu’elle est devenue se réapproprie son héritage : la possibilité d’écrire cette histoire.
Dans l’œuvre de Marguerite Duras, les lieux sont souvent sollicités pour participer à la narration des événements. Dans La pute de la côte normande et Écrire, deux œuvres autobiographiques rédigées au « je », les lieux sont ceux du quotidien. Ceux-ci sont révélateurs de la psychologie de l’auteure et se mêlent à la préoccupation d’écrire. Ainsi, Marguerite Duras, ses lieux et son écriture se retrouvent-ils liés par le langage de l’auteure, lequel témoigne du vide laissé par la mort de son père. / Through short accounts, the narrator reconstitutes the past of a family. The main character, a young girl, is the narrator attempting to trace the events which led to the break-up of her family cell. Seeking to distance herself from this past, she delivers the auto-biographical story using the third person. The little girl has grown up, and the narrator she has become attempts to reclaim her heritage: the possibility of writing this story.
In Marguerite Duras’ work, the presence of surroundings is often solicited to participate in narrating the events. In La pute de la côte normande and Écrire, two auto-biographical works written in the first person, the places evoked are those sheltering her everyday life. Those are revealing of the author’s psychology and intertwine with the concern of writing. Marguerite Duras, her surroundings and her writing style become bound to one another by the author’s language, which reveals the void caused by her father’s death.
