Para tanto, foi elaborado e desenvolvido um curso de formação continuada para professores de uma escola da rede municipal de ensino de Bauru. Os dados foram coletados a partir de materiais produzidos pelos participantes, observações dos encontros, questionários e entrevistas, sendo estes examinados por meio da Análise de Conteúdo. Os dados obtidos foram organizados em quatro eixos temáticos: Fontes de (in)formação, Teorias críticas e PHC, Conhecimentos sobre a PHC e Ensino de Ciências e PHC. Pela análise dos dados, verifica-se que o conhecimento das professoras é limitado, especialmente em relação às bases e para a PHC e que o ensino de Ciências é pouco articulado a essa perspectiva. Os professores demonstram que conhecem alguns principios da teoria e indicam a necessidade de aprofundamento teórico. Discutiu-se a necessidade de domínio teórico dessa teoria pelos professores e a formação como via para este processo / This study aimed to analyze the knowledge of a teachers group on Historical Critical Pedagogy (HCP) and its joints with the science teaching in the initial grades. Therefore, it was designed and developed a continuing education course for teachers of a municipal school from Bauru. The data were collected from material produced by the participants, observations of meetings, questionnaires and interviews, which are examined through Content Analysis. The data were organized into four themes: (In) formation sources, Critical Theories and HCP, Knowledge of HCP and HCP Science and Education. For the data analysis, it appears that the knowledge of teachers is limited, especially with regard to the bases from and to the HCP and the Science education is poorly articuled in this perspective. The teachers demonstrate that kwnow some principles of the theory and they indicate the need for theoretical study. We have discussed the need to theoretical domain of this theory by teachers and training as way for this process

No. of bitstreams: 1 Trento_PeterRodrigo_M.pdf: 6288263 bytes, checksum: c7284b3f0aefc54c262f2023dac6c048 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2014 / Resumo: Este trabalho busca analisar algumas questões relativas ao lugar de vivência e identidade dos alunos das escolas do bairro Capela, uma região periférica do município de Vinhedo, no estado de São Paulo. Cercado por condomínios fechados, estigmatizado socialmente, esse bairro possui uma história ocultada pelos poderes locais, que deve ser trabalhada em sala de aula, através de uma metodologia que valorize o lugar e seja dialógica e crítica. Para isso, trabalhou-se com os alunos um estudo do bairro, tendo como objetivo despertar uma reflexão desses estudantes sobre a dinâmica do espaço que habitam e produzindo conhecimento com esses alunos. Para tanto, foi utilizado um amplo referencial metodológico que permitiu uma multiplicidade de práticas durante as aulas de Geografia, entre elas: um pequeno questionário socioeconômico, atividades com pesquisa histórica local, trabalhos com fotografia, além da experiência vivida no cotidiano escolar e através de diálogos com pais e moradores da comunidade local. Do ponto de vista teórico, tratou-se das complexas relações entre a identidade local, na escala do lugar, com relações de poder mais complexas e do papel da educação em busca de uma melhor compreensão do espaço de vivência dos estudantes com esses fenômenos locais/globais. Baseando-se nos resultados dessa pesquisa qualitativa, evidenciou-se o grande desconhecimento por parte dos educadores e educandos da marcante história dos negros e migrantes intrarregionais no bairro, ocultada veladamente pela declarada origem suíça e principalmente italiana da cidade. Dessa forma, espera-se contribuir para as pesquisas em educação como um todo, com um olhar mais atento às questões locais, produzindo reflexões e descobertas nos alunos e na comunidade, esclarecendo pontos ocultos da história de uma região que vem crescendo e possui uma importância enorme para a cidade de Vinhedo / Abstract: This paper aims to examine some issues about the place of experience and identity of the students of the Capela district, a peripheral region of the city of Vinhedo in the state of São Paulo. Surrounded by gated communities, socially stigmatized, this neighborhood has a story hidden by local authorities that must be taught in the classroom, through a dialogical and critical methodology that values the place. For this purpose, we conducted a study about the neighborhood with local students, aiming to encourage them to reflect upon the dynamics of the space they inhabit and producing knowledge with these students. To accomplish this, we used a broad methodological framework that allowed a multiplicity of practices during geography lessons, among them: a short questionnaire on socio-economical activities with local historical research and workings with photography, as well as experience in school life and through conversations with parents and local community residents. From the theoretical point of view, it was the complex relationships between local identity, the scale of the place, with more complex power relations and the role of education in pursuit of a better understanding of students' living space with these local/global phenomena. Based on the results of this qualitative research, there was great ignorance on the side of teachers and students regarding the remarkable history of black culture and intraregional migrants in the neighborhood, untruly declared by Swiss origin and especially the Italian origin of the city. Thus, this paper is expected to contribute to research in education as a whole, with a closer look at local issues, producing reflections and discoveries in the students and the community, clarifying points of the hidden history of a region that is growing and that has huge importance for the town of Vinhedo / Mestrado / Ensino de Ciencias e Matematica / Mestre em Multiunidades em Ensino de Ciências e Matemática

(Un)Compromising/In Tension: Critical Pedagogy and the Academy

Tegler, Taiva January 2013 (has links)
In asking about the experiences of professors embodying and enacting tools of critical pedagogy, this thesis seeks to explore strategies of resistance to the hegemony of neoliberalism in the Academy. This research focuses on the Canadian university as characterized by neoliberal logic and the hierarchical practices of capitalism, patriarchy, and colonialism. By exploring the themes of neoliberalism, violence, tension, critical pedagogy, and anti-oppression, that are in turn rooted in personal testimony and lived experience of educators, this study seeks to challenge normative systems of knowledge production to expand and explore subjugated knowledges. What is at stake is developing strategies that may be cultivated and documented as critical pedagogical tools that work toward collective imaginings of resistance.

Teaching Past the Test: a Pedagogy of Critical Pragmatism

Jordan, Jason 05 1900 (has links)
Existent scholarship in communication studies has failed to adequately address the particular pedagogical context of current public secondary education within the United States. While communication studies has produced a great deal of scholarship centered within the framework of critical pedagogy, these efforts fail to offer public high school teachers in the U.S. a tenable alternative to standardized constructs of educational communication. This thesis addresses the need for a workable, critical pedagogy in this particular educational context as a specific question of educational communication. a theorization of pedagogical action drawing from critical pedagogy, pragmatism, and communication studies termed “critical pragmatism” is offered as an effective, critical counter point to current neoliberal classroom practices in U.S. public secondary schools.

Pre-service Teachers Engaging with Critical Pedagogies and Designing Civic Action Units

January 2020 (has links)
abstract: This research shares findings from a qualitative case study featuring pre-service teachers enrolled in an undergraduate English methods course at a large public university. The participants engaged in a semester long course focused on different critical pedagogies, such as culturally sustaining pedagogy (Paris & Alim, 2014), funds of knowledge (Moll et al., 1992), and multicultural education (hooks, 1992). The purpose of the study was to determine what effect the study of critical pedagogies would have on the pre-service teachers’ design of a civic action unit for a secondary English language arts context. In terms of which critical pedagogies influenced the design of the civic action units, how the critical pedagogies were adapted for specific contexts, and how the critical pedagogies are negotiated with other systemic educational forces. The data collection occurred over the final six weeks of the course and in a follow-up interview a month later. Data were drawn from the following sources: (1) participant’s weekly reflections, (2) audio recorded class discussions, (3) researcher field notes, (4) participant’s civic action units, and (5) follow-up interviews. The participant reflections, civic action units, and interviews went through three rounds of coding and were categorized to identify salient findings. The audio recordings and field notes were referenced to provide contextual details. These findings show that when pre-service teachers engage in an ongoing dialogue about critical pedagogies, they design civic action units that apply a variety of critical pedagogies for a unique context while accounting for different systemic forces including educational standards, colleagues, and parents and policies. For the course, the participants were able to pick their unit’s focus and were responsible for the unit’s design. The participants designed units that engaged students in consciousness-raising experiences, and created opportunities for students to critically reflect on their world and take action to improve it. As a result, the participants in this study all reported that they planned on using their civic action unit in their future classrooms. / Dissertation/Thesis / Doctoral Dissertation English 2020

An investigation of language learning agency in English for academic purposes: The case of the Malawi University of Science and Technology

Mkandawire, Kondwani Kelvin January 2020 (has links)
Philosophiae Doctor - PhD / There is general recognition regarding the importance of English for Academic Purposes (EAP) courses in assisting students acquire academic discourses appropriate to specific disciplines of study. However, undergraduate students in multilingual contexts, where English is a second or foreign language face challenges in managing the transition from secondary school into the university, where they are expected to appropriate as well as acclimate to new discourses of communication deemed to be essential for their survival in the academic world. Although studies show the importance of agency in language learning success, institutional demands have sometimes led to the adoption of teaching and assessment practices that ignore the learners’ English language learning history, background, experiences and needs, which impact on their sense of agency and voice in the EAP classroom and eventually their learning success.

Exploring the lived experiences of Black women navigating type-2 diabetes

Dimitri, Noelle Catherine 07 May 2021 (has links)
Black women are disproportionately burdened by type-2 diabetes (Bancks et al., 2017) and their experience of health inequities is negatively shaped by institutionalized racism in the US (Feagin & Bennefield, 2014). Previous research has demonstrated the impact of type-2 diabetes on the Black community, yet fails to adequately capture the complexity of Black women’s experiences navigating the disease (Hurt et al., 2017). This two-phase qualitative dissertation study addresses this gap in the literature. Drawing from critical race theory (Delgado & Stefancic, 2012), feminist theory (Collins, 2002) and popular education (Freire, 1970), photovoice and interview methods were employed to examine how one group of Black women residing in Boston experience type-2 diabetes. Phase I included a photovoice project with 11 Black women between the ages of 36 and 69 recruited from an area diabetes clinic and community agencies. Phase II included one focus group (N=4) with interdisciplinary diabetes providers from an area diabetes clinic and 13 individual interviews with interdisciplinary diabetes providers including: physicians, nurse practitioners, clinical pharmacists, dieticians and social workers from three Boston medical institutions. The researcher explored provider perceptions of the photovoice findings and their implications for provider education and training. The researcher used inductive thematic analysis (Braun & Clark, 2006) to further contextualize the photovoice findings in phase I and to analyze providers’ reactions to the photovoice analysis in phase II. Photovoice participants and providers interpreted the photovoice findings differently. The photovoice participants’ analysis reflected a hopeful, aspirational message despite the complexity of navigating type-2 diabetes and the competing messages about health and wellness many Black women internalize. In contrast, provider reflections were more deficit driven and focused on medical management. Further, providers shared some biased assumptions about Black women’s experiences with type-2 diabetes such as inferring substance use as a concern from one of the photos. This research highlights the transformative power of photovoice methods (Wang & Burris, 1997) to engage Black women to make meaning of their experiences with type-2 diabetes and communicate their health priorities. These findings have important implications for interdisciplinary teaching models and future social work research and practice with Black women and other marginalized groups coping with chronic disease. / 2023-05-07T00:00:00Z

(Mis)Diagnosing Silence: A Cultural Criticism of the Virginia Tech News Coverage of Silence as Public Pedagogy

Hao, Richie Neil 01 January 2009 (has links) (PDF)
On April 16, 2007, Virginia Tech became the site of the deadliest school shooting in U.S. history (Breed, 2007). Because of the tragedy at Virginia Tech, news reports all over the U.S. probed about what caused the perpetrator, Seung-Hui Cho, to kill 32 students and faculty members. As the mainstream media talked about the possible causes, they ultimately pointed out that Cho's silence should have been detected as a warning sign to his violent rampage. As a result, the media named Cho a "silent killer." Due to the U.S. media's construction of silence through Cho, I argue that the news coverage helped perpetuate the notion that silence is not only a negative attribute in education, but it is also a dangerous behavior that can pose a threat to people's safety. Therefore, I ask in this dissertation, how did the news coverage of Virginia Tech serve as a public pedagogy of silence? That is, I argue that the news coverage of Virginia Tech served as what Giroux (1994) calls "public pedagogy" in which the media educate and influence the public about how silence should be understood in the classroom. With the media's construction of silence through Cho, it is timely to address how the meaning of silence has changed pedagogically. Even though numerous scholars have written about silence, very few--if any--frame silence within the performance paradigm, specifically in pedagogy. In this dissertation, I introduce silence as a pedagogical performance by using critical communication pedagogy as a theoretical framework to deconstruct problematic media constructions of silence. Through the use of cultural criticism, I analyze 36 mainstream U.S. mediated texts (e.g., newspapers, magazines, and news transcripts) to understand how the media rhetorically defined and constructed silence as a dangerous behavior. I also use an interview as part of multi-methodological approach to cultural criticism, adding clarification on how the surveillance of student behaviors, bodies, and pedagogical practices that do not fit the image of safety affect students in university classrooms.
