Both ways and beyond : in Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander health worker education

Grootjans, John, University of Western Sydney, Hawkesbury, Faculty of Health, Humanities and Social Ecology January 1999 (has links)
During 1987 my essential beliefs about the nature of the world were challenged by a chance event which led to my arrival in Arnhemland. Working with Aboriginal people allowed me to see first hand the failings of Western ideas in Aboriginal education and health. This is how a 12 year collaboration with Aboriginal people began. The aim was to search for answers to the question, 'Why so many ideas that had been successfully used in the Western world, fail to meet the needs of aboriginal people? My experiences prior to 1995 had led me to believe that Both Ways, an education pedagogy developed in teacher education, was the best approach for empowering Aboriginal Health Workers. I believed Both Ways gave Aboriginal Health Workers a means to develop solutions to aboriginal health issues which valued and respected their aboriginal knowledge. I needed to describe and evaluate the practice of both ways with Aboriginal Health workers for the purpose of proving the benefit of this pedagogy for other educators in this field. This thesis describes how I came to think Both Ways was a good idea; how I defined Both ways; and how I put it into practice. It also provides a description of the issues raised in my critique of Both Ways and in my attempts to provide answers to these issues. Several years of collecting data, including records from action research group discussions, participant observation, interviews with peers and students, and formal evaluations left me with many concerns about Both Ways. As educators follow my journey of discovery I hope that they will recognise experiences and insights that they themselves have shared. The descriptions and discussions in this thesis will add significantly to the overall discourse about health worker education. Similarly, the exploration of ideas beyond Both Ways will add significantly to the overall body knowledge about the power relationships involved in teaching in a cross cultural setting / Doctor of Philosophy (PhD)

No. of bitstreams: 1 severian_mr_me_arafcl.pdf: 6510661 bytes, checksum: d18ccbd9ac8e0ea7c85bf1ad91413c28 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2016-05-20 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) / O discurso doutrinário produzido e veiculado nas sociedades disciplinares do século XVIII permitiu a instauração tanto das dicotomias quanto dos paradigmas que norteiam, até o presente século, a maneira como as instituições escolares devem atuar e refletir sobre o âmbito educacional, condicionando, consequentemente, não apenas as metodologias e as práticas adotadas nessas instituições, como também a crença que envolve o pensar e o fazer educacional na nossa sociedade contemporânea. Com isso, as escolas passaram a adotar algumas tendências mercadológicas e fabris as quais visam legitimar diretrizes autoritárias e ratificar uma hierarquia pré-estabelecida de poder nas instituições de ensino. De maneira contrária, Dewey (1959), Freire (1967 e 1979) e Morin (2000 e 2007) propõem outras maneiras de compreender a educação, enfatizando o papel primordial dessa para o desenvolvimento tanto do caráter quanto da personalidade “autênticos” do indivíduo, permitindo o despertar da singularidade e da ética nos alunos e nos professores. De acordo com essa perspectiva que visa construir uma educação singular, a nossa intenção neste trabalho é analisar e compreender de que forma se estabelecem as relações de poder (FOUCAULT, 1987 e 1989) nas práticas de língua estrangeira em uma escola, situada no interior de São Paulo, que segue os princípios da singularidade como fio condutor de sua prática. Dentro dessa abordagem, pretendemos depreender os discursos e as práticas referentes às singularidades e à democracia, a fim de refletir sobre a maneira como as relações verticais e horizontais se constroem nesse processo peculiar de ensino-aprendizagem de língua estrangeira. Para isso, realizamos uma pesquisa qualitativa de base etnográfica, com o intuito de observar como se estabelecem essas relações nas práticas de idioma e coletar os dados. / The doctrinal speech produced and conveyed in the disciplinary societies from 18th century consented the instauration both of the dichotomies and of the paradigms which guide, until the present century, the way how educational institutions must act and reflect on the educational field, hence conditioning not only the methodologies and practices in these institutions, as well as the belief that involves thinking and doing education in our contemporary society. The schools have adopted some trends similar to marketing and manufacturing procedures which legitimate authoritarian directives and ratify a pre-established hierarchy of power within and also outside the educational institution. Conversely, Dewey (1959), Freire (1967 and 1979) and Morin (2000 and 2007) present alternative ways to comprehend the education emphasizing its essential role to the development of both the authentic character and personality of the individual, enabling the arousal of singularity and ethic in students and educators. In accordance with this perspective that aims to erect an education based on humanity and singularity, this paper intents to analyze and comprehend how the power relantionships (FOUCAULT, 1987 and 1989) are established during the classes of foreign language at a specific school, situated in a city in the state of São Paulo, which follows the principles of singularity as a guideline to its practice. Within this approach, we intend to understand the discourse and practice with regard to singularities and democracy in education to reflect on how the vertical and horizontal relationships are built in this peculiar process of foreign language teaching and learning. To achieve this, we conducted a qualitative ethnographic research in order to observe how these relationships are established in foreign language classes and collect data.

Examining patterns of student participation in online discussion boards

Hoekman, Annie January 1900 (has links)
Doctor of Philosophy / Department of Educational Leadership / W. Franklin Spikes / This research examined the nature of the patterns of communication of discussion board users who were enrolled in undergraduate level online courses. For purpose of analysis, this study used Norman Fairclough’s Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) framework (1992). Data were collected from discussion board posts of eight undergraduate online courses that were offered by a small, private, religiously-affiliated, liberal arts university. An examination of these data was further informed by Garrison, Anderson, & Archer (1999) Community of Inquiry model. Using Garrison et al.’s ideas, the researcher described the nature of the interactions between students and faculty with respect to social, cognitive, and teaching presence in online discussion boards. The findings of this research suggest that understanding the presence of social, cognitive, and teaching presence as well as the nature of the patterns of communication in the discourse is important in developing quality distance education discussion boards. More specifically, they showed that evidence of social and teaching presence was regularly present in an examination of the online discussion boards. Conversely, the data showed very few examples of cognitive presence. Based upon the findings of this research, ideas for how constituents of online education can continue with and improve upon the practices found here relative to social and teaching presence as well as how to re-envision and improve upon cognitive presence and overall-intention for discussion boards were also offered.

Hallberg, Virlani January 2012 (has links)
The central theme of my work is systematic violence on the micro-level of everyday life, our understanding and relation to “evil”, and the conditions behind it. I wish to address the relation between these micro-levels of experience and individual action with larger questions regarding the history of modernity – the power structure and social order of the modern state and its regime of identity and identification, set against the backdrop of a haunting colonial past and post-colonial present-day reality.   I understand film – the moving image – as a medium of sensory experience that appeals in a direct way to the human mind. It enables us to experience well-known or completely strange states of mind and reflect on them, thus creating new awareness of our own position and behaviours, which enable new forms of self-knowledge. Film speaks to all that is ‘unconscious’, and it makes it possible to observe human behaviour in new ways, to understand the driving forces behind individual action and the self. Fiction is for me a way to enter into these realms of reality, to bring to the foreground those aspects that are normally inaccessible, or consciously or unconsciously hidden or repressed in the name of social order or common sense – in order to then return in the form of structural violence.

Indivíduo com síndrome de Down: história, legislação e identidade / Down Syndrome Individual: history, legislation and identity.

Dezotti, Mariangela Carvalho 11 April 2011 (has links)
Esta pesquisa estuda as práticas da convivência introduzidas na relação do aluno com síndrome de Down com a escola pública do Estado de São Paulo, e aponta para as marcas forjadas pela história, leis e espaços, impressas nas condições e possibilidades no cotidiano escolar. Revela, nas formas de condução do processo de desenvolvimento do aluno com deficiência intelectual, a existência de um indivíduo possível, planejado e previamente definido. Com o apoio da observação do aluno com síndrome de Down, no espaço escolar, rompe com os limites do indivíduo possível e desvela para além do rótulo de um indivíduo único, real, tecido pela convivência, pela consciência de sua posição no grupo, dialogada e negociada. Pensa na escola e nas ações empreendidas pelo desejo de pertencer, de cada sujeito da pesquisa, que refletem sobre os limites que se impõe sobre as forças e possibilidades ali apresentadas. O desenvolvimento interno do indivíduo, gerado por desejos e reflexões, elabora uma aquisição criativa a partir de ajustes do vivenciado, revelado na ação, na convivência do espaço escolar. O desafio, neste estudo, é responder a seguinte questão: as ações dentro da escola contribuem para a construção de um indivíduo possível, tornando a formação do indivíduo real refém destas forças? Nesse sentido, o trabalho se estrutura a partir da conjugação de vários pontos de partida. Assim, busca: detectar marcos históricos que se repetem, onde o poder de uma área se desenvolve e se fortalece a partir de um campo de saber, identificando e caracterizando serviços e indivíduos; localizar, na legislação, como são configuradas a pessoa, e a pessoa com deficiência intelectual; definir o indivíduo real, que persiste além do rótulo, do estigma, formado na contradição, em uma dialética de exclusão e inclusão; identificar mecanismos construídos diariamente, e a clareza que a família e indivíduos têm destes. Na análise da realidade investigada, vai além da mera descrição dos dados observados e faz a opção por uma abordagem qualitativa, ou seja, captar a escola pelo olhar dos sujeitos e suas manifestações. Elementos de pesquisa e reflexão, como registro fotográfico e vídeo elaborado por aluno são utilizados como mediadores e organizadores de temas, estes, desta forma, centrados e desenvolvidos a partir da reflexão sobre fatos observados na relação com os sujeitos. Conclui que as forças produzidas pelo ambiente fazem parte da visão histórica da constituição do indivíduo com síndrome de Down, enquanto as técnicas de contorno e superação são construídas por ele, na vivência dos limites, e concorrem para a construção de um indivíduo único, nem sempre percebido pela escola / This research evidences the companionship practices introduced in the relation to Down syndrome student and shows the forged marks through history, laws and spaces, printed in the conditions and possibilities in the public school from São Paulo State. It reveals in the ways of leading the process of the development of the student who has intellectual deficiency, the existence of a possible individual planned and previously defined. Supporting the study of the Down syndrome student in the school space, it breaks the limits of the possible individual and unveils the label of unique individual, who is real, formed by companionship, conscious of his position in the group, dialogued and negotiated. Such individual thinks about school and executed actions hoping to belong to every subject of the research which reflects over the imposed limits, strength and possibilities there where it is presented. The internal development of the individual, generated by wishes and reflections elaborates a creative acquisition from adjustments of the subject revealed in the action, in the companionship of the school space. The challenge, in this study, is to answer the following question: do the actions inside school contribute to build a possible individual becoming the character of a real individual who is hostage of this strength? In this way the study itself from several starts points. It pursuits detecting historical boundaries which are repetitive where the power of an area develops itself and becomes strong from knowledge identifying and showing services and individuals; localizing in the legislation the way the person is configured and the intellectual deficiency person; defining the real individual who persists beyond label, the stigma, ,formed in the contradiction in a dialectic of exclusion and inclusion; identifying mechanisms daily built concerning family and individuals as well. In the analysis of the investigated reality, it goes farther on the simple description of observed data and decides for a qualified approach, that is, it looks at through the way the subjects look and their manifestations. Such elements of research and reflection, it means, photos and videos created by the student are used as mediators and organizers of the themes, these ones, this way, centered and developed after reflection about observed facts in the relationship with such subjects. I concluded that the strength produced by the environment makes part of the historical view of the Down syndrome individual constitution while the contour techniques and overcoming are built by him living his limits and contributing to build a unique individual who is not always noticed by school.

Relações de poder e dominação no processo educativo /

Marino Filho, Armando. January 2007 (has links)
Orientador: Suely Amaral Mello / Banca: Stela Miller / Banca: Lígia Márcia Martins. / Resumo: Esse trabalho de pesquisa examinou as relações de poder e dominação no processo educativo, com o objetivo de estudar possibilidades de alteração nas relações de dominação, por meio da produção coletiva de um regulamento orientador das relações sociais no interior da sala de aula. Foi realizado em uma escola pública, em uma classe de Ensino Fundamental, com 30 alunos e um professor como sujeitos da pesquisa. Desenvolveu-se como uma pesquisa-ação, pela utilização de entrevistas, observações durante as aulas e com a colaboração do professor, em uma intervenção no processo de regulamentação da atividade em sala de aula. A fundamentação teórica do presente estudo foi a teoria Histórico- Cultural, baseada essencialmente em Vygotski e Leontiev, inspirada pelo Materialismo Histórico e Dialético marxista, além de outras fontes da psicologia, antropologia, sociologia e pedagogia. Foi observado o desenvolvimento de um processo de estruturação das atividades na sala de aula, que reproduz a estrutura de relações de poder e dominação presentes na sociedade. Também foi possível observar que as relações de dominação aparecem como contradição nas relações no interior da sala de aula e que, portanto, podem ser objetos de reflexão conjunta de aluno e professor. Nota-se que as contradições da regulamentação só aparecem para os alunos e para o professor no processo de produção coletiva da regulamentação quando as necessidades afetivas e emocionais dos alunos são consideradas. Isto não ocorre quando mecanismos de dominação prevalecem na construção das regras; nesta situação, verifica-se uma aparente concordância ou submissão a elas. / Abstract: The present study examined power and domination relationships in the educational environment, aimed to investigate mechanisms of change in these relationships through collective production of rules for social behavior in the classroom. The study was carried out in a public elementary school, with a teacher and his 30 students as subjects, using an action research approach with the aid of recorded interviews and assistematic observations during the process of rule building in the classroom. The theoretical foundations of the present analysis was the Cultural Historical theory , based essentially on Vygotski and Leontiev's work (inspired by the marxist historical and dialectic materialism), as well as other psychological, anthropological, sociologicaland pedagogical sources. It was observed that the development of a rule production process mainly reproduces the structure of power and domination relationships present in the surrounding society. It was also noted that domination relationships appear as contradictions in the classroom, which can thus be object of collective reflection by teacher and students. These contradictions appear to the students and teacher only during the collective production of rules, when the student's affective and emotional needs are considered. They are absent when domination mechanisms are used, leading to an apparent acceptation of, or submission to, the rules produced so far. / Mestre

Um viajante em busca do essencial: a personagem entre a aparência e a essência / A traveler search of the essential: the character between appearance and essence

Patricia Conceição Silva Santos 19 February 2009 (has links)
Este trabalho busca examinar as relações de poder alegorizadas no romance Todos os Nomes, de José Saramago. Usando principalmente as teorias de Mikhail Bakhtin e Michael Foucault sobre o processo de constituição do sujeito moderno (entendido, neste caso, como um sujeito que se reconhece como portador de uma identidade própria, ainda que, paradoxalmente, se saiba também integrante de um grupo social que o concebe e o solicita como um \"corpo dócil e útil\"), este trabalho enfoca desde a arquitetura \"panóptica\" do espaço impessoal da Conservatória do Registro Civil, que mantém seus funcionários numa rígida e produtiva disciplina de trabalho sob o olhar vigilante do Conservador, até os comportamentos transgressores do Sr. José em seu processo que investiga a identidade da mulher desconhecida, passando pelo exame dos recursos carnavalescos que visam a desmascarar o poder instituído. A análise visa provar que existe uma intrínseca e inextricável relação entre o poder instituído (representado pela figura do conservador) e o sujeito que se submete a esse poder (representado, no romance, pela figura do Sr. José), de tal modo que o desenvolvimento da autoconsciência do sujeito e a sua libertação em relação à condição anterior de assujeitamento (na terminologia de Foucault) acarretam, necessariamente, mudanças nas diferentes microesferas de poder (também com base no pensamento de Foucault). / This work aims to analyse the power relationships allegorized in the novel Todos os Nomes (All the Names), written by the Portuguese writer José Saramago. Using mainly Bakhtin\'s and Foucault\'s theories about the process of modern subject constitution (that who recognizes himself as owning his own single identity, though he also recognizes the use social forces and power instances make of him as \"a teachable and ductible body\"), this work focuses on the social and functional \"panoptical \"architecture of the register office (\"Conservatória\"), whick keeps the workers in a rigid but productive discipline, under the watching eyes of the \"Manager\". But it also focuses on \"Sr. José\'s transgressive attitudes along his investigatory route to discover the unknown woman\'s identity. And it also investigates the unmasking of the hegemonic power by means of the Bakhtinian carnavalization procedures which have the power to relativize the official conceptions of reality. This analysis aims to prove that there\'s an inextricable link between the institutional forces and the subject who\'s submitted to this power, so that the development of one\'s consciousness causes a direct consequence on the hegemonic power forces, with subtle changes in the power relationships.
