Activating the art classroom| Combining critical pedagogy, visual culture and socially engaged art to promote agency amongst high school students

Fister, Tyler W. 07 December 2017 (has links)
<p> The topic of this study examines how the art classroom can be a site to facilitate agency amongst high school students. The research questions for this study are: (a) How will implementing a unit of instruction based in youth participatory action research (YPAR), critical pedagogy, visual culture, and art activism facilitate a change in students&rsquo; attitudes towards their own agency to impact change? (b) How will implementing a unit of instruction based in youth participatory action research (YPAR), critical pedagogy, visual culture, and art activism promote agency within students to think of art as a tool to affect change within their communities? This study uses critical pedagogy to situate students&rsquo; concerns and lived experiences as a starting point. Through a visual culture arts education (VCAE) approach, I developed a discussion about students&rsquo; ability to critically examine how their visual experience produces belief systems that perpetuate social inequities. Lastly, this research utilizes Socially Engaged Art (SEA) to theorize art&rsquo;s ability to build awareness and propose solutions to social concerns. I conducted this study as a Youth Based Participatory Action Research (YPAR) project in which students are active participants within the research, design, and implementation of the study.</p><p>

Vocal pedagogy : goals, objectives, scope and sequencing for undergraduate students

Rautenbach, Deirdre 26 August 2013 (has links)
The aim of this study was to investigate the content, organisation and outcomes of undergraduate vocal pedagogy modules. Goals and objectives guide outcomes which in turn will facilitate the delineation of the content or scope of the moduls. The organisation of content will involve the sequencing of study units appropriate for beginner, intermediate and advanced levels of undergraduate vocal pedagogy studies. A qualitative research method was chosen to direct the empirical investigation. Primary data collection was conducted through semi-structured interviews. Certain participants opted to reply in writing and similarly structured open-ended questionnaires were sent electronically to them. Purposive sampling was used to select South African respondents by virtue of their knowledge and expertise in the field of vocal pedagogy. A degree of snowballing also followed and valuable data was collected from participants in Canada and the USA. The investigation regarding the restructuring of vocal pedagogy modules was viewed from a multi-disciplinary and holistic perspective. Establishing the underlying principles that direct the goals, objectives, scope and sequencing of undergraduate vocal pedagogy modules guided the study. Goals direct the bringing together of relevant and mutually supportive disciplines essential to undergraduate vocal pedagogy modules. The demands of prospective careers for students dictate what knowledge and skills they need to be equipped with. Moreover, the judgement of lecturers based on institutional level descriptors as well as knowledge and experience of appropriate content designation for beginner, intermediate and advanced students further guides the formulation of goals and objectives. The rich and diverse body of vocal pedagogy literature provides the material that informs the scope of undergraduate modules. Sequencing of content for a vocal pedagogy offering is directed by the scientific base of knowledge, feedback from students, the tried and trusted traditions of established lecturers and authors, as well as the intuitive teaching talent of lecturers. Scaffolding (the gradually diminishing role of a lecturer as students gain independence) emerged as an important component of creating a balanced undergraduate pedagogy offering. Lecturers should have a reflective and deep knowledge of vocal pedagogy in order to successfully integrate it with vocal practice. This is the hallmark of a holistic approach that will effectively equip students for a career after tertiary training. From the information received from participants it can be concluded that a vital requirement for organising content is that learning and therefore also teaching should be a gradual and ongoing process. The basic building blocks of vocal pedagogy (posture, breathing, phonation, resonance and articulation) should be supplemented by auxiliary disciplines (historical background of vocal pedagogy, psychology and ethics, comparative pedagogies, and elements of performance) that support and further inform vocal pedagogy studies. / Dissertation (MMus)--University of Pretoria, 2012. / Music / unrestricted

Tomando como objeto o currículo de pedagogia, o estudo analisa as relações estabelecidas entre as concepções de homem e projeto histórico e as categorias da prática - trabalho educativo, currículo e escola - nas teses sobre currículo de pedagogia no Brasil, tendo em vista a necessidade histórica de apropriação dos conhecimentos objetivos/científicos pela classe trabalhadora. A fonte de análise foram as teses disponíveis nos bancos de teses da CAPES e da BDTD, no período de 1987 a 2010. Fundamentado no materialismo histórico dialético, toma a crítica em Marx para a análise destas produções. Parte das seguintes hipóteses: 1) É possível, que as concepções de homem/formação humana presentes nas teses não apontem a necessidade de articulação de um projeto educacional (concepção de formação humana) com um projeto de mudança radical das relações sociais que se estabelecem na sociedade capitalista (projeto histórico), necessidade imperiosa dos dias atuais. 2) Possivelmente, estas teses não pautam o currículo de formação do pedagogo a partir da necessidade histórica de apropriação dos conhecimentos objetivos/científicos pela classe trabalhadora, levando em consideração a situação concreta de desqualificação e rebaixamento da educação no país, ou seja, a partir da prática da qual a pedagogia se origina e a qual ela se destina. A análise dos dados demonstra que cerca de 86% das teses fundamentam-se numa visão idealista de homem e de mundo, centrando a discussão sobre o currículo na subjetividade, em detrimento do debate a partir das necessidades reais do nosso tempo. As teorias são substituídas por descrições fenomênicas e interpretações consensuais, segundo as quais a verdade científica reside não na realidade em si, mas nas normas particulares de grupos específicos. Assim, ao tratar da escola, do trabalho educativo e do currículo, nega-se a universalidade da cultura e o conhecimento objetivo, bem como secundariza-se a necessidade de apropriação deste conhecimento na escola. Discuti-se o currículo de pedagogia desconsiderando que a alteração do mesmo não pode se dar descolada da luta mais geral pela superação da realidade que o determina em última instância. Os outros 14% das teses concebem que o homem constitui-se a partir do trabalho em seu sentido ontológico, articulando a discussão sobre a alteração do currículo à luta pela superação do capital, defendendo explicitamente o projeto histórico socialista. Ao fazê-lo reconhecem a universalidade da cultura e a objetividade do conhecimento, bem como a necessidade do trato e da apropriação do mesmo na escola, no currículo pelo trabalho educativo. Finalmente, o estudo aponta que é necessário avançarmos em proposições e práticas curriculares que tenham em vista a formação humana vinculada ao processo de transição ao projeto histórico comunista. / Salvador
