Health education in cross cultural encounters : an agogical perspectiveArthur, Mavis Lorraine 11 1900 (has links)
In contemporary multicultural societies, health is emerging as a fundamental right alongside
education and welfare: a frame of reference endorsed by the Government of National Unity
in South Africa. Health workers are confronting issues far beyond the more traditional
modes of health education. The initial thrust of this research was to investigate the most
relevant social, health and education knowledge bases and issues relative to health education
in cross cultural encounters in order to formulate universal guidelines applicable to the
national situation. Differences inherent in allopathic and traditional health systems are
explored in historical time, in conjunction with concepts of social change, communality in
diversity and the co-existence of multiple realities. An understanding of common
denominators across all human and group experience emerges and, with it, insight into
problems that occur when universalistic conceptions of human behaviour are linked to
communicocentric hegemony. The parameters within which cross cultural health education are viewed are extended through
an analytical, empirical evaluation of the andragogic consequences of a broader conceptualisation
of culture and the patterned relationships existing between elements within society.
The ontic fact that similar variables may have widely different meanings and be differently
construed by people whose life experiences differ is affirmed. Culture shock becomes a
potential personal reality for all engaged in cross cultural encounters. Radical reflection on human nature and the eidos of man constitutes the foundation upon
which the aims and various theories of health education are systematically and progressively
evaluated. Evidence surfaces that the original intent of the research was rooted in the
Western medical tendency towards standardisation, specialisation and the creation of
scientifically validated routines for professional practice and that gaps exist between the
theory and practice of health education and the everyday experiences of people. On the basis
of scientifically based insights, guidelines have been formulated to narrow the divide between
the factual, linearly based procedural aspects of health education and the human experience
of learning. The guidelines embody the notion that the health educator's role in cross
cultural encounters is one of facilitating meaningful, appropriate and informed choices on the
part of adult learners. / Educational Studies / D.Ed. (Philosophy of Education)

Decolonising Afrikan masculinities : towards an innovative philosophy of educationBuntu, Amani Olubanjo 01 1900 (has links)
This study concerns itself with how Afrikan masculinities were (perspective on the past), what they are now (perspectives on the present) and what they can, ideally, become (perspectives on the future). By employing a decolonial and Afrocentric approach of deconstructive and critical theory, transdisciplinarity and Afrikological perspectives, the study’s objective is to understand the impact of coloniality on Afrikan masculinities.
Coloniality, in this context, refers to the impact of historical colonization, enslavement, Apartheid on (South) Afrikan societies, including how the after-effects and their multiple consequences for changes in (South) Afrikan culture, economy, politics, communities, families and individuals have impacted on the notions about, and roles of, Afrikan men.
Further to this, the study seeks to understand the role of Afrikan culture in shaping solutions to problems identified, in the form of an innovative philosophy of education towards relevant Afrikan masculinities. Applying Participatory Action Research (PAR) as research methodology, the study examines how Afrikan masculinities are seen, understood and envisioned by Afrikan men and women. Empirical research was conducted with a co-research team in Mangaya village, Thulamela Municipality in Limpopo Province, South Afrika. Findings from the study were coded, cross-analysed, triangulated with literature and a number of discussions and dialogues, and eventually developed into concepts for emerging theory and practical interventions.
The study found that many Afrikan men are caught between expectations to what they should become and systemic obstacles to fulfil these expectations. As a result of colonial injustices – and their many after-effects, many Afrikan men have become confused about their identity, irresponsible in their behavior, “broken” in their self-perception (and in the eyes of the world) and in deficit of Afrikan values as guidelines for meaningful, Afrikan manhood.
Essential solution-concepts found were for Afrikan men to deepen their self-knowledge, seek healing, empowerment and engage in re-learning of indigenous guidelines. These concepts have been expressed through nine lessons, serving as an innovative, educational philosophy for Afrikan manhood. A mixtape featuring brief, motivational messages for young Afrikan men against a musical soundtrack was produced as a direct outcome of the study. / Educational Studies / D. Ed.

A Holistic Approach to the Ontario Curriculum: Moving to a More Coherent CurriculumNeves, Ana Cristina Trindade 14 December 2009 (has links)
This study is an interpretive form of qualitative research that is founded in educational connoisseurship and criticism, which uses the author’s personal experiences as a holistic educator in a public school to connect theory and practice. Key research questions include: How do I, as a teacher, work with the Ontario curriculum to make it more holistic? What strategies have I developed in order to teach a more holistic curriculum? What kinds of difficulties interfere with my practice as I attempt to implement my holistic philosophy of education? This dissertation seeks to articulate a methodology for developing holistic curriculum that is in conformity with Ontario Ministry guidelines and is also responsive to the multifaceted needs of the whole student. The research findings will serve to inform teachers who wish to engage in holistic education in public schools and adopt a curriculum that is transformative while still being adaptable within mainstream education.

A Pedagogy of Holistic Media Literacy: Reflections on Culture Jamming as Transformative Learning and HealingStasko, Carly 14 December 2009 (has links)
This qualitative study uses narrative inquiry (Connelly & Clandinin, 1988, 1990, 2001) and self-study to investigate ways to further understand and facilitate the integration of holistic philosophies of education with media literacy pedagogies. As founder and director of the Youth Media Literacy Project and a self-titled Imagitator (one who agitates imagination), I have spent over 10 years teaching media literacy in various high schools, universities, and community centres across North America. This study will focus on my own personal practical knowledge (Connelly & Clandinin, 1982) as a culture jammer, educator and cancer survivor to illustrate my original vision of a ‘holistic media literacy pedagogy’. This research reflects on the emergence and impact of holistic media literacy in my personal and professional life and also draws from relevant interdisciplinary literature to challenge and synthesize current insights and theories of media literacy, holistic education and culture jamming.
