To Use or Not to Use Coursebooks? : A Study of Teachers' Opinions on Coursebooks and What Constitutes a Good One in the English Classroom / Att använda läromedel eller inte? : En studie om lärares åsikter om vad som är ett bra läromedel ochläromedelsanvändning i engelskundervisningenSandström, Daniel January 2020 (has links)
The aim of this study is to investigate teachers’ opinions and experiences using analogue coursebooks in lower secondary school English teaching. The study was conducted using written interviews, interviewing 7 currently active teachers teaching English in the Swedish school system, with the participants’ answers being the material. Thematic Analysis was a method used to structure the results, and Sociocultural Theory was the theoretical perspective. The themes that were identified were: analogue coursebooks; digital coursebooks; more or less suitable activities for coursebook usage; the future of coursebook usage; and desirable qualities of a coursebook. The results of the study reveal that the participants have a positive outlook on using analogue coursebooks in the English classroom as a way of maintaining a certain level of difficulty and quality in the teaching, whilst also having something to fall back on as a source with varied content that can be used. There were no noticeable differences in the teachers’ opinion of what they could be used for but the extent to which they used them varied depending on their experience in the profession. Finally, the cost of coursebooks was mentioned as a key aspect in the process of selecting coursebooks, together with user-friendliness and flexibility.

Guidelines for a whole-school language policy in multicultural schoolsHendry, J. O. (John Owen), 1945- 06 1900 (has links)
This study explores approaches and strategies to implement in multicultural English-medium
secondary schools for the management and education of black pupils with limited proficiency
in English. It attempts to identify means of enhancing and accelerating the mastery by such
pupils of English at a level sufficient to support their cognitive-academic needs.
An account is given of those elements of the South African education system that have
contributed to the disadvantagement that such children bring to the multic,llttu'al classroom.
Relevant theories of bilingual education create a theoretical context for the qualitative research
that follows, in which the experiences are recorded of educators at three schools where the
needs of limited-English-proficient (LEI') pupils have been addressed. Data gathering was by
means of focus-group interviews.
Based Oll this research, guidelines are offered to help multicultural schools design policies and
implement programmes to accommodate the needs of LEP pupils. / Educational Studies / M.Ed. (Comparative Education)

Argumentera och resonera - men hur? : En analys av en lärobok i svenska på gymnasiet / Argue and reason - but how? : An analysis of an educational book for the Swedish subject at upper secondary schoolStruglics, Hanna, Ljungberg, Johannes January 2021 (has links)
Att språket spelar en nyckelroll för att nå skolframgång och för att – i ett större perspektiv – kunna verka aktivt i samhället är man inom utbildningsväsendet enig om. Vikten av att eleven utvecklar ett adekvat språkligt register med vilket kunskapen uttrycks – och i synnerhet ett diskursivt sådant – kan alltså inte förnekas, och genrepedagogiken har ur detta perspektiv haft ett särskilt inflytande i svensk skola, med dess explicita modellering i skrivande och metaspråkliga dekonstruktion av texter. Mot denna bakgrund är det därför relevant att undersöka hur läromedel i svenska instruerar i diskursivt skrivande, eller med andra ord vilka förutsättningar för metaspråklig förståelse om diskursivt skrivande som eleven erbjuds i mötet med läromedlen. Syftet med föreliggande examensarbete har därför varit att utveckla en förståelse för hur vi som lärare kan förhålla oss till läroböcker i svenska, utifrån avsikten att utveckla elevernas skriftspråkliga repertoar i diskursiv riktning. Teoretiska utgångspunkter är SFL:s funktionella språkmodell, där språk betraktas som bestående av olika lager, samt betydelsen av metaspråklig förståelse i skrivprocessen och explicit skrivundervisning. Materialet utgörs av skrivkapitlet i en lärobok riktad mot gymnasiekursen Svenska 1 och analyseras genom kvalitativ innehållsanalys i två steg. Först analyseras bokens görande, det vill säga dess metaspråkliga beskrivningar av diskursiva texter, för att i nästa skede tolkas mot teorier där metaspråklig förståelse, explicit undervisning och sambandet mellan språkets form och funktion är centralt. Resultatet visar att lärobokens metaspråkliga instruktioner ger tämligen mycket stöd för vad de olika texterna ska innehålla och hur innehållet ska disponeras, men att textens komponenter ofta inte dekonstrueras till lokal nivå, vilket alltså medför en otydlighet i hur man språkligt realiserar innehållet och hur en viss stil kan uppnås. Slutsatsen är att läraren behöver vara beredd på att komplettera lärobokens huvudsakliga fokus på innehåll och struktur, med en inzoomning på textens lokala nivå för att synliggöra och konkretisera skrivandets hantverk. Inte minst kan det krävas ett särskilt fokus på hur olika textaktiviteter framställs och hur en formell stil kan åstadkommas, samt på relationen mellan form och funktion.

Bambine e ragazzi bilingui nelle classi multietniche di Torino / Il sistema scolastico a confronto con opportunità, complessità e sfide del plurilinguismoRitucci, Raffaella 24 October 2018 (has links)
Das Schulregister des Kultusministeriums MIUR verzeichnet, dass mehr als jede/r zehnte aller Schüler/innen in Italien keine italienische Staatsbürgerschaft hat, obwohl sie mehrheitlich dort geboren wurden. Zahlreiche Erhebungen weisen für sie im Vergleich zu den italienischen Mitschülern/innen geringere Italienischkenntnisse und weniger schulischen Erfolg auf.
Innerhalb dieser explorativen Feldforschung haben Einzelinterviews mit 121 Schülern/innen (5.-8. Klasse) in Turiner Schulen und mit 26 Eltern, sowie die Auswertung von 141 an 27 Italienisch- und Herkunftsprachlehrer/innen verteilten Fragebögen ergeben, dass viele Schüler/innen "zweisprachige Natives" sind, da sie mit Italienisch und einer anderen Sprache aufwachsen. Dieser Polyglottismus, den die Interviewten sehr positiv bewerteten, findet jedoch in der Schulpraxis keine Entsprechung: Gezielte Förderung im Italienischen und der Unterricht der Familiensprache sind meist Wunschdenken.
In der Kohorte haben die Schüler/innen mit den besten Italienischkenntnissen einen italophonen Elternteil bzw. kamen im Vorschulalter nach Italien und besuchten dort den Kindergarten. Dagegen sind, wie auch bei den INVALSI-Tests, die in Italien geborenen und die dann die Krippe besuchten, leicht benachteiligt. Was die Familiensprache angeht, verbessert ihr Erlernen die Kompetenzen darin, ohne dem Italienischen zu schaden: Im Gegenteil. Diese Ergebnisse bestätigen die wichtige Rolle der "anderen" Sprache für einen gelungen Spracherwerb.
Das MIUR sollte also sein Schulregister mit Sprachdaten ergänzen, um die Curricula im Sinn der EU-Vorgaben umzuschreiben und den sprachlich heterogenen Klassen gezielte Ressourcen und definierte Vorgehensweisen zur Verfügung zu stellen. Mit geringeren Mitteln, im Vergleich zu den jetzigen Kosten für Herunterstufung, Klassenwiederholung und Schulabbruch würde man Schulerfolg, Chancengerechtigkeit und Mehrsprachigkeit fördern, mit positiven Folgen für den Einzelnen sowie für die Volkswirtschaft. / L'anagrafe studenti del MIUR registra come oggi in Italia più di uno studente su dieci non è cittadino italiano, pur essendo la maggioranza di loro nata in questo paese. Numerose indagini statistiche mostrano come gli allievi "stranieri" presentino, rispetto a quelli italiani, ridotte competenze in italiano e minore successo scolastico.
Questa ricerca esplorativa svolta in alcune scuole di Torino (V elementare-III media) ha analizzato dati ottenuti tramite interviste semi-strutturate a 121 studenti e 26 genitori e 141 questionari compilati da 27 insegnanti di italiano e di lingua di famiglia. Da essa è emerso che molti studenti sono "nativi bilingui", poiché crescono usando l'italiano e un'altra lingua. Questo poliglottismo, valutato dagli intervistati assai positivamente, non si rispecchia però nella prassi scolastica: un supporto mirato in italiano e l'insegnamento della lingua di famiglia sono di regola una chimera.
All'interno del campione le più ampie competenze in italiano si trovano fra chi ha un genitore italofono e chi è arrivato in Italia in età prescolare frequentandovi la scuola materna; come constatato anche nei test INVALSI, chi è nato in Italia e vi ha frequentato l'asilo nido è leggermente svantaggiato. Rispetto alla lingua di famiglia risulta che il suo studio porta a migliori competenze in essa, senza nuocere all'italiano: anzi. Emerge quindi il ruolo significativo della lingua "altra" per un'educazione linguistica efficace.
L'invito al MIUR è quindi di integrare la propria anagrafe con dati linguistici, così da ridefinire i propri curricula secondo le Linee Guida Comunitarie, individuando procedure e risorse specifiche per le classi multilingui. Con un investimento ridotto, paragonato con il costo attuale dato da retrocessioni, ripetenze e abbandono scolastico, si riuscirebbe a sostenere il successo scolastico, le pari opportunità e il plurilinguismo, con conseguenze positive per i singoli e per l'economia nazionale. / The Italian Ministry of Education (MIUR) student register records that today in Italy more than one out of ten students is not an Italian citizen, although the majority of them were born there. Several statistical surveys indicate that "foreign" students, when compared to native students, show a poorer performance in Italian and in academic achievement.
This exploratory fieldwork carried out in schools in Turin (5th to 8th grade) analyzed data obtained through semi-structured interviews with 121 students and 26 parents as well as 141 questionnaires filled in by 27 teachers of Italian and family language. It showed that many students are "bilingual natives", as they grow up acquiring both Italian and another language; however, despite the fact that the interviewees rate polyglottism positively, schools don't usually offer targeted support in either language.
Within the cohort the broadest range of competences in Italian are found first among those with an Italian-speaking parent, then among those who arrived in Italy at pre-school age attending kindergarten there; this latter group shows higher competences than those born in Italy attending nursery there, as also in the INVALSI tests. As far as family language is concerned, data illustrate that its teaching increases its competences without affecting those in Italian: quite the opposite in fact. These results confirm the remarkable role played by the "other" language in successful language education.
MIUR is therefore called upon to include also linguistic data in its student register, so as to redefine its curricula according to EU Guidelines, and to identify specific procedures and resources for multilingual classes. This new policy would reduce the current cost of placing students in a lower grade, grade retention and drop-outs, and would promote school success, equal opportunities and multilingualism, with positive consequences both for the individuals and for the national economy.
