Secondary education in BBC broadcast, 1944-1965 : drawing out networks of conversation and visions of reform

Hoare, Lottie January 2017 (has links)
This study examines the representation of Local Education Authority (LEA) secondary schooling in England and Wales as it was portrayed in non-fiction British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) programmes in the twenty-one years that followed the 1944 Education Act. The primary sources drawn on for this study include the surviving microfilmed radio scripts, dating from 1944–1965 and held at the BBC Written Archives (BBC WAC). The correspondence files from contributors to programmes also provide a key source from BBC WAC. The majority of the programmes considered are radio broadcast, however some documentary films on the topic of secondary education, made by the BBC and transmitted on television, are also analysed. Where audio-visual copies have survived, the programmes were viewed at the BFI Viewing Services. The study draws on 235 BBC programmes in total, made in the years 1944–1965. The details of these broadcasts can be seen in the three Appendices accompanying this study. The study also employs the use of drawing to present key ideas. This study explores how broadcasts are formed as cultural products. The research questions address: what was the content of these programmes? Who collaborated to create and edit these programmes and how were the programmes devised to inform the public about the provision of secondary education? What was the role of the All Souls Group (ASG) in this collaboration? The public included a domestic audience in England and Wales and an overseas audience for whom distinct broadcasts were usually created. A further element of the research is a scrutiny of the BBC as an organization that positions itself as neutral. The considered programmes enabled a group of eloquent educationalists to use their rehearsed and edited ‘conversation’ on a public stage. As the study unfolds it becomes apparent that the members of the informal education discussion group, the ASG, were lobbying to encourage the topic of secondary education to resurface sufficiently often on air. The study concludes with recognition that the reinforcing of loyalties between overlapping networks, such as the BBC and the ASG, should no longer be approached with reticence in academic research.

Nové technologie ve vzdělání z fenomenologického hlediska / New Technologies in Education from the Phenomenological Point of View

Novotná, Eva January 2015 (has links)
This diploma thesis describes connection between education and technology from the phenomenological point of view. The hypothesis of this diploma thesis is the idea that new technologies influence changes in perception of the real world. There are students who use new technologies - the aim of the thesis is to evaluate the influence of technologies in educational process and changes in their perception of the world. The thesis describes the approach to education (Jan Patočka), new technologies in education (Branislav Frk, Marc Prensky), phenomenology and technologies (Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Paul Virilio) from the point of view of chosen authors. The thesis shows how perception of young generation (that Prensky called digital natives) is changed compared to the older one called digital immigrants and what consequences can this change cause. The thesis describes threats arising from the use of technologies and how to precede. KEYWORDS phenomenology, upbringing, education, technologies, media, perception

Multimedia programmes in individual learning

Seuoe, Maria Mankonono 25 March 2014 (has links)
M.Ed. (Media Science) / Aim of the study: To explore the theories, principles, new models and strategies of teaching and learning in order to provide an alternative to the traditional way of teaching and learning. To develop a multimedia programme in which individual learning is enhanced, using a Guided Self-study programme, being a combination of the Keller Plan and the Postlethwait system. 1.4 Method of investigation An exploration of literature as regards the use of particular media in individual learning. Studying media that will be used in drawing up an alternative programme in individual learning, utilizing a picture, a tape and study guide, bearing the models of learning in Chapter 2 in mind. 1.5 Structure of the study In the first chapter literature will be reviewed to gain an overview of the situation in Black education. Probable causes of the high failure rate in English will be examined through reports by examiners of English Second Language Higher Grade (1990a) and Motau (1990). Standard 7, 8 and 9 results will be studied to recognize the trend in performance especially in English literature, as this will be used in developing individualized programmes later in this study (see Appendix A and B). Bearing this knowledge in mind, the principles of learning by Mursell (1954) and Romiszowski's new model of learning will be examined in the light of the aims of teaching English, which emphasize the acquisition of certain skills and the use of the senses in teaching and learning (Compare paragraph 1.2.3). Romiszowski's model revives this awareness. Various learner-centred approaches will be highlighted in the second chapter (compare paragraph 2.5). The third chapter will concentrate on media. It should, however, be observed that media which have been thoroughly dealt with by other researchers in other studies will merely be alluded to. The author of this study acknowledges the views of previous researchers and would like to use only media that are affordable, and can easily be manipulated and duplicated. The fourth chapter will focus on a synthesis of the script and recommendations for further research. In Appendix A a multimedia programme for standard 9 is described. Appendix B contains a proposal for a multimedia programme for teaching English literature to standard 10. An attempt will be made to include Pottas's steps in drawing up a study guide, Romiszowski's new model (compare paragraph 1.3.5) and also skills, hierarchical frameworks and feedback models (compare paragraph 2.3). In this study the emphasis will be on individual learning. It will be endeavoured to use media and approaches by which individual learning is enhanced and which will motivate the learner to study independently.

Kurrikulêre mediagebruik in primêre skole

Labuschagne, Martha Maryna 25 March 2014 (has links)
M.Ed. (Media Studies) / Curricular media use can be considered as the utilisation of media by a subject-teacher. This implies the selection and integration of media in the tuition study procedure in order to form an integral part of the total teaching-learning procedure. The problem identified in this study is that no research has been done on the Witwatersrand to establish the position of curricular media use in primary schools in the senior primary phase. The objective of this study is to attempt to establish the position of curricular media in the senior primary school phase on the Witwatersrand. This study will essentially be undertaken on the basis of literature and empirical research. In chapter one the context in which the study will be done is set, after which the problem and purpose of the study will be mentioned. In chapter two a study of the literature is undertaken with the focus on curricular media use in the senior primary school phase. Chapter three devotes attention to an exposition of the method of the empirical investigation, the use of this research instrument and the interpretation of the data obtained from the questionnaire. In chapter four a resume is given of the findings in an attempt to consolidate and a few recommendations regarding curricular media use are made. Within the context of the set target and on the grounds of the findings in chapter two and three, the following conclusions are made: It would appear that the position of and attitude towards curricular media use are reasonably positive. Not all of the respondents received tuition in curricular media use during their training as teachers and this is a field that calls for improvement. In-service training is given at schools but not on a regular basis. Teachers are not fully informed on curricular media use and media selection and they are aware of the features of the various educational media but their choice of media in the implementation of curricular media use contradicts their replies. Lack of funds is an important factor. Most of the schools do not have a budget for each subject for curricular media. There is a need for guidelines for the implementation of curricular media use in the senior primary school phase. The following recommendations are made: Primary schools need guidelines on how curricular media use can be implemented. In-service training must be given on a quarterly basis. In-service training must include curricular media use, media selection and media features make provision for this. Teacher training must also Funds must be made available by management for the purchase of curricular media. Further research can be done to establish guidelines for the implementation of curricular media use in the different subjects in the senior primary phase. A comparative study can be done to establish the difference (s) between scholars receiving education through curricular media use and those who do not. Herewith the research into the status of curricular media use in the senior primary school phase within the context of the set aim is provisionally completed.

Derivation and application of a model of lens meaning

Emme, Michael John January 1991 (has links)
The twofold purpose of this study was to ground a model of Lens Meaning in the literature of the Fine Arts and Social Sciences and to use that term as a referent in evaluating three Media Studies curricula. Lens Meaning is a term derived from a variety of sources, particularly Peirce (1955), whose semiotic theory described three systems of signs used as terms on one axis of a matrix or model by which Lens Meaning can be described. These terms are: "index", "icon", and "symbol". DeLauretis' (1984) expanded understanding of another system of signs described by Peirce, interpretants, is the foundation for the three terms on the other axis of the matrix. Those terms, which describe interpretation or response, are: "emotional", "energetic", and "habit changing". These, and other terms identified in the literature, provided a conceptual model that might be applied to the analysis and evaluation of programs of Media Studies, and similar documents. Three Media Studies programs were selected for study: from Western Australia, Ontario, and Scotland. Application of the model permitted conclusions to be drawn on the extent to which current issues of an ideological and sociopolitical nature were addressed by these programs. It was concluded that the model achieved the purposes required of it and that it may be of further utility for educators. / Education, Faculty of / Curriculum and Pedagogy (EDCP), Department of / Graduate

Co-learning Pedagogies in the Media Literacy Education Classroom

Hill, Erika 12 July 2011 (has links) (PDF)
This qualitative research project describes the experiences of students in BYU's Hands on a Camera Project as they were introduced to co-learning pedagogies. Hands on a Camera is a media literacy service-learning project where university students are placed in public schools to teach K-12 students documentary production and media literacy. The project consists of a preparation phase and a teaching phase. In the research project, students were required to complete peer-learning and peer-teaching assignments during the preparation phase as in order to prepare for the teaching phase. This ethnographic study describes student experiences—positive and negative—with peer learning during both phases of the project.

The Impact Of A Media Literacy Education Plan On The Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (fcat) Reading Scores Of 9th And 10th Grade Students

Sheehy, Colleen T. 01 January 2007 (has links)
This study investigated the impact of a media literacy education plan on the reading test scores of the Florida Comprehensive Assessment Test (FCAT) at an urban high school in Central Florida. A team of 9th and 10th grade teachers created a professional learning community and developed a treatment to enhance language arts instruction with various forms of media. This media literacy education plan included four lessons utilizing media such as television commercials, magazine photographs and the Internet; the lessons were taught during the four months leading to the administration of the 2007 FCAT. Data were gathered from the 2006 and 2007 FCAT scores of students in a control and treatment group. Using these pre test and post test data, statistical analysis comprised two independent t-tests and one repeated measures ANOVA. The data revealed statistical significance at the 9th and 10th grade level, but did not show statistical significance at any particular reading level (Levels 1-5). Implications from this study included strong professional learning communities produce effective teachers and that student achievement increases when a media literacy education plan is included in English Language Arts instruction. Furthermore, this study illustrates the need to embrace modern media as viable classroom instructional tools. Recommendations were made for further research utilizing different materials, different forms of media, different student populations. This study also concluded that further qualitative research be conducted. Ultimately, this study makes a strong argument for the inclusion of media and media literacy education in the secondary English Language Arts classroom.

MEDIA LITERACY EDUCATION, GENDER, AND MEDIA REPRESENTATIONS IN THE HIGH SCHOOL CLASSROOM

Provorova, Elizaveta January 2015 (has links)
The media impact how people perform their gender, and play an important role in the reproduction of gender binary. Media representations of gender can be described as hegemonic in the sense that, because of their complexity, they contribute to the reproduction of gender norms by otherwise agentic audiences. Media literacy education offers useful strategies for helping audiences question media representations of gender, allowing them to trouble the hegemonic system that keeps inequalities in place. This dissertation answers the question: How do high school students respond to the instruction in a media literacy program informed by gender studies and scholarship on media representations? To answer this question, I used ethnographic methods and the case study approach. My main findings are: (1) Classes that involve analysis of media representations of gender have an agenda-setting effect on students, helping them notice problematic media messages and connect them to social problems and inequalities. (2) Media and gender classes can encourage students to engage in social action, even without the teacher’s prompting. (3) Media and gender classes are not part of a standard curriculum, and teachers choose to include them because they are passionate about gender inequalities. This is why these teachers might lean towards the protectionist approach. (4) Students might embrace teachers’ message about the value of gender equality and diversity, but keep their implicit biases unchecked. Teachers should think of ways to address these biases in the classroom. (5) In order to help students acquire a balanced set of media literacy skills, it is important to work on all competencies of the AACRA model of media literacy education: Access, Analyze, Create, Reflect, and Act. / Media & Communication
