Pedagogy as dialogue between cultures : exploring halaqah : an Islamic dialogic pedagogy that acts as a vehicle for developing Muslim children's shakhsiyah (personhood, autonomy, identity) in a pluralist society

Ahmed, Farah January 2018 (has links)
This thesis presents an argument for the use of dialogic halaqah to develop the personal autonomy of young Muslims in twenty-first century Britain. It begins by developing a theoretical grounding for Islamic conceptualisations of personal autonomy and dialogic pedagogy. In doing so, it aims to generate dialogue between Islamic and ‘western’ educational traditions, and to clarify the theoretical foundation of halaqah, a traditional Islamic oral pedagogy, that has been adapted to meet the educational needs of Muslim children in contemporary Britain. Dialogic halaqah is daily practice in two independent British Muslim faith-schools, providing a safe space for young Muslims to cumulatively explore challenging issues, in order to facilitate the development of selfhood, hybrid identity and personal autonomy, theorised as shakhsiyah Islamiyah. This thesis examines the relationship between thought, language, and the development of personal autonomy in neo-Ghazalian, Vygotskian and Bakhtinian traditions, and suggests the possibility of understanding shakhsiyah Islamiyah as a dialogical Muslim-self. This theoretical work underpins an empirical study of data generated through dialogic halaqah held with groups of schoolchildren and young people. Using established analytic schemes, data from these sessions are subjected to both thematic and dialogue analyses. Emergent themes relating to autonomy and choice, independent and critical thinking, navigating authority, peer pressure, and choosing to be Muslim are explored. Themes related to halaqah as dialogic pedagogy, whether and how it supports the development of agency, resilience and independent thinking, and teacher and learner roles in halaqah, are examined. Moreover, findings from dialogue analysis, which evaluates the quality of educational dialogue generated within halaqah, that is, participants’ capacity to engage in dialogue with each other, as well as with an imagined secular other, are presented. The quality of the dialogic interactions is evaluated, as is evidence of individual participant’s autonomy in their communicative actions.

It is specifically inserted in the studies performed by the Study and Research Group in Physical Education, Sport and Leisure (LEPEL/PPGE/FACED/UFBA), and answers scientific questions related to the matrix research on “Significant issues on Pedagogical Work, Knowledge Production, Public Policies, and Formation of Physical Education and Sport Teachers”. Its object of study is the treatment of knowledge in the formation of Physical Education Teachers. It delimits as its research question what are the contributions of the Historical-Cultural Psychology, the Historical-Critical Pedagogy, and the Critical-Overcoming Approach of Physical Education Teaching to face the contradictions present in the teacher formation curriculum that refer to the knowledge denial, and the treatment of knowledge through biological, naturalistic, mechanistic approaches that fragment body-mind and theory-practice. The hypothesis dealt with the confrontation of the teacher formation project that defends the division of the Physical Education undergraduate programs, emphasizing the health matter, through the possible contributions of a theoretical set based on the Marxist reference, and the pedagogical experience in the teaching of Biomechanics Applied to Physical Education, subject of the Fundamentals of the Health area axis, related to the Axis of the Specific Content of Body Culture of the Physical Education Undergraduate Program, with extended character, of the College of Education in the Federal University of Bahia. The systematized data were collected: (a) in the bibliography about the theoretical assumptions; (b) in legislation, in the MEC databases, and in dissertations and theses; (c) in locus, in the pedagogical experience developed in the teaching of the Biomechanics Applied to Physical Education course at FACED/UFBA. The investigation procedures were: content analysis; dense description in field reports; and elaboration of syntheses establishing links and relations that allowed the conclusion of the thesis. The thesis presents as its assumptions: epistemologically, the Historical Dialectical Materialism theory of knowledge; on human development, the Cultural Historical Theory; pedagogically, the Historical-Critical Pedagogy Theory; and on the teaching of Physical Education, the Critical-Overcoming Approach. The objective concerns the contributions of the theoretical assumptions to the treatment of the knowledge, especially of the health area, in the curriculum of Physical Education teachers’ formation, with the perspective of overcoming contradictions, and of contributions to consolidate a consistent theoretical formation, based on the Historical and Dialectical Materialism theory of knowledge. It was concluded, presenting, through the assumptions of Marxist reference, theoretical-practical elements, where we highlight the systems of complexes, in the treatment of knowledge, in the curriculum of Physical Education teachers’ formation, within the framework of a single, extended degree. / RESUMEN Esta tesis compone el conjunto de estudios realizados en la Universidad Federal de Bahía, a partir del Programa de Postgrado en Educación, Línea de Investigación Educación, Cultura Corporal y Ocio.

Challenges faced by student teachers of Nyadire Teachers' College in engaging pupils in philosophical inquiry and feasible solutions

Zimbiti, Clementine T. 11 1900 (has links)
Philosophical inquiry as a pedagogical approach develops higher order thinking and problem solving skills. Inquiry-based learning is an important approach for sustainable development, considering the fact that today’s societies has to deal with everyday challenges. Philosophical inquiry is a powerful educational approach that has cognitive, social and practical benefits. This study examined the challenges faced by the Nyadire Teachers’ College (NTC) student teachers in Mashonaland East Province in Zimbabwe in engaging pupils in philosophical inquiry and ways of overcoming them. The study employed the qualitative design because of its focus on participants’ perceptions and actions. The researcher viewed participants as reflective beings whose actions were influenced by their thoughts. The study sample comprised forty student teachers on campus who had just completed their Teaching Practice (TP), eight student teachers on TP and ten lecturers from various departments. The data were collected through individual interviews, focus group discussions, non-participant observation of lessons and document analysis. The evidence from literature indicates that philosophical discourse and pedagogy develop learners’ ability to be responsible and accountable for their actions. It has also indicated teachers’ inability to introduce children to thoughtful discussion as one of the barriers to the use of philosophical inquiry as a pedagogy. The findings of the study indicated that NTC student teachers lacked skills and dispositions to engage pupils in philosophical inquiry. This was attributed to lack of critical pedagogy in teacher education at NTC. The findings also indicated that there were challenges in practicing schools. The study established knowledge and competence gaps amongst NTC student teachers as one of the challenges. The study suggested that NTC teacher education should expose student teachers to theory and practice of critical pedagogy. It also suggested in-service education on mentoring for teachers in schools, as mentoring demands more skills and knowledge than mere teaching. / Educational Studies / D. Ed.

Evaluation of curriculum design and delivery : a case for Zimbabwe Staff College

Kashora, Phoebe 01 1900 (has links)
The major goal of the Bachelor of Adult Education degree is to equip officers with the prerequisite skills, knowledge and attitudes to design and deliver programmed instruction to different categories of learners as well as to equip them with skills to conduct research in the field of adult education practice. The present study undertakes to investigate the reasons for lack of patronage for the adult education degree at Zimbabwe Staff College (ZSC) by exploring the quality of the adult education degree programme in terms of its effectiveness, relevance, value and its ability to enhance the quality of life. An adult education degree programme should reflect the sociocultural realities and experiences of adult learners. Participatory approaches should inform the development and implementation of curriculum. The aim of the study is to inform decisionmaking aimed at programme improvement. Effectiveness entails adequacy and appropriateness of teaching methods and support services. Relevance is ensured by considering the policy framework, curriculum provision, learners‟ needs and non–participation in the programme. Value constitutes the ability to improve the economic, professional, social and political aspects of life. Using the qualitative case study design, seven students and two administrators were selected using purposeful sampling, which is informed by the non-probability theory of sampling, to participate in individual and focus group interviews, which were subsequently conducted and generated data for analysis. Available relevant documents were analysed. The major finding revealed that a lack of recognition of the adult education programme by superiors at ZSC was the major obstacle to participation. Lack of recognition was found to be attributable to the absence of any national lifelong learning policy, ZSC policy framework, institutional structural conditions, and non–participatory curriculum development process and also to other associated barriers. The non-existence of the national and local policies on adult education was found to be negatively affecting not only participation but also the quality of the content provision because a lifelong learning policy framework is supposed to be informing design and practice. Recommendations focus on revision of the policy framework and the way the policies are implemented at national and local levels. A review of the implementation of policy is imperative if the restrictions responsible for the invisibility of adult education in the country and adult education programmes at ZCS are to be removed. / Curriculum and Instructional Studies / D.

Pedagogical challenges experienced by teachers of music literacy in Zimbabwe : a case study of five Gweru primary schools

Ganyata, Obert 11 1900 (has links)
This study investigates the challenges experienced by teachers of music literacy in Zimbabwe, and is based on a case study of five primary schools in the city of Gweru. The research builds on a literature review of past studies on Zimbabwean music literacy teaching, and on a review of policy documents. Empirical data was collected through lesson observations, interviews with teachers and administrators, and the analysis of lesson plans. To validate the findings a method of triangulation was used. Results are presented in both narrative and tabular forms in this dissertation, and analysed inductively. Zoltan Kodály’s work informs the theoretical framework, as well as other African and Western music educators, including Dalcroze, Kwami, Nketia, and Suzuki. Consistent challenges recognized by all stakeholders include a lack of resources, inadequate teacher training, and the exclusion of music as an examination subject. Recommendations are provided by way of conclusion. / Art History, Visual Arts and Musicology / M. Mus.

Potencialidades de um curso de formação continuada para a construção de conhecimentos e formação de conceitos em ciências naturais / Potentialities of a continuing training course for the construction of knowledge and formation of concepts in natural sciences

Silva, Sorái Vaz da 06 December 2017 (has links)
Produto: Curso de formação continuada ciências naturais nos anos iniciais... / Um ensino de Ciências Naturais que contemple a construção de conhecimento e a formação de conceitos está diretamente relacionado a práxis pedagógica dos professores. Assim, a formação do professor precisa ser revista, repensada, ou a escola será esvaziada da sua função social que é a construção e ressignificação do conhecimento historicamente produzido. Como aporte teórico escolheu-se Vygotsky, Piaget e Vergnaud, sendo que os três teóricos discutem a formação de conceitos, estendendo-se a formação de conceitos às Ciências Naturais, voltada para os anos iniciais. Em decorrência desta preocupação, o estudo objetiva analisar as potencialidades de um curso de formação continuada para a construção de conhecimentos científicos e a formação de conceitos com professores que ministram aulas de Ciências nos anos iniciais. A pesquisa transcorreu em duas etapas. Inicialmente foi aplicado um questionário para 40 professores que ministram aulas de Ciências nos anos iniciais na rede municipal do município de Quatro Barras-PR, visando um levantamento sobre como os professores entendem algumas teorias sobre a formação de conceitos. A segunda etapa envolveu a elaboração de um Blog e o desenvolvimento de um curso de formação continuada, composto de módulos integrados para dez professores voluntários. Durante o desenvolvimento do curso de 40 horas constitui-se o corpus da pesquisa, composto de questionário inicial, gravação da prática social inicial e final durante os módulos integrados, elaboração de diário de bordo e realização de entrevista final. Após a coleta de todo o material foi realizada uma leitura flutuante com base na Análise de Conteúdo de Bardin e foram definidas duas categorias e seis indicadores para a presente pesquisa: a categoria A “formação para docência em Ciências Naturais” e a categoria B “ação docente que vise a construção de conhecimentos e a formação de conceitos em Ciências Naturais”. Com base nos indicadores dessas categorias e as contribuições dos professores, com vistas a construir conhecimentos e formar conceitos, o curso de formação continuada demonstrou ser positivo, havendo a tomada de consciência, por parte dos cursistas, acerca da necessidade de se preparar para a ação docente, bem como se mostrou produtiva no sentido de contribuir para a construção dos conhecimentos em Ciências Naturais. Experienciaram a utilização da Pedagogia Histórico Crítica como ação docente com foco a vincular os saberes escolares à realidade. Tomando por base a fundamentação teórica, desde que os professores sejam preparados para uma ação docente efetiva, conclui-se que é possível a construção de conhecimentos e a formação de conceitos em Ciências Naturais nos anos iniciais indo além da reprodução mnemônica, promovendo a alfabetização científica que habilita o aluno a atuar no seu entorno. / A teaching of Natural Sciences that meditates to the knowledge construction and formation of concepts is straightly connected the pedagogic praxis of the teachers for the initial years, soon the formation of the teacher needs to be revised, rethought, or the school will be emptied of his social function that is the construction and reconstruction of the historically produced knowledge. Like a support reference Vygotsky, Piaget and Vergnaud, were chosen that theoreticians discuss the formation of concepts, when the concepts formation is stretching out to the Natural Sciences, turned for the initial years. Because of this concern, the lifted problem was what would be the potentialities of a course of formation continued in the construction of Scientific Concepts with teachers who teaches classrooms of Sciences in the initial years. The inquiry elapsed in two stages. Initially a questionnaire was applied for 40 teachers who administer classrooms of sciences in the initial years in the municipal net in the Quatro Barras City, aiming at a survey on how teachers understand some theories about concept formation. The second stage wrapped the projection of the course and of the blog and the development of the course of formation continued for ten volunteer teachers. During the development of the course of 40 hours it was collected the Corpus of the inquiry, been composed of carving of the integrated modules, preparation of log book and realization of final interview. After the collection of the whole material was carried out a floating reading on basis of the analysis of content of Bardin and the indicators were defined for the present inquiry. After collecting all the material was performed a floating reading based on content analysis of Bardin and were defined two categories and six indicators for this research: the category A “formation for teaching in Natural Sciences” and the category B “teaching action aimed at the construction of concepts in the Natural Sciences”. On the basis of indicators of these categories, the contributions of the continuing training, with a view to build knowledge and to form concepts, proved to be positive and taken of awareness on the part of teachers the need to prepare for teaching activities, as well as proved productive in the sense of contributing to the construction of knowledge in the natural sciences. They experienced the use of Historical-critical Pedagogy as teaching activities with focus to bind the school knowledge to reality. Supported in the theoretical grounds, provided that the teachers are prepared for an action effective, it is concluded that it is possible the construction of knowledge and the formation of concepts in Natural Sciences in the initial years going beyond the mnemonic reproduction, promoting scientific literacy that enables the student to act in its surroundings.

Lived Legal Expertise: Mobilizing the Political Agency of Incarcerated Youth

Schiffer, Ian S 01 January 2017 (has links)
This thesis analyzes how caring relationships and an emancipatory approach to law related education (LRE) within juvenile justice facilities can cultivate political agency. I focused specifically on Camp Afflerbaugh-Paige, an LA County juvenile probation facility, in La Verne, CA, as a case study. During three months of teaching a law related education class and embedding myself at the facility with an asset-based framework, I encountered a wealth of knowledge that incarcerated juveniles possess, not from formal education or research, but based in their own lived experiences. Los Angeles County Probation spends $233,000 per student per year; assuming best intentions of those in charge and the actors, the students, with a wide array of expertise, should be thriving within these institutions and set up for success upon their release. Unfortunately, though, students’ academic, entrepreneurial, and legal expertise are criminalized rather than cultivated by the juvenile justice system. Through a policy class, the students created reforms to address the challenges of a paramilitary camp that neglects students’ emotional, physical, and mental health. The challenges in the environment complicate the political agency of students within the camp and post-release. I am making the claim that the political agency of the students is visible and the assets are tangibly cultivated by an emancipatory pedagogy, ethic of care, and the law related education curriculum.

Trolla med normer snarare än "rätt och fel". En studie om pedagogers uppfattningar av och kunskaper kring att arbeta med genus och drama i förskolan. / Troll with norms, rather than "right and wrong"

Michailidou, Efthymia, Herraiz Caldenius, Natalia January 2021 (has links)
Studiens syfte var att undersöka pedagogers uppfattningar av och kunskaper kring att arbeta med genus och drama samt att belysa vilka eventuella utmaningar de möter i arbetet. Studien präglas av kvalitativ metod och utgår ur ett socialkonstruktionistisk perspektiv. Vår ambition var att samla in pedagogernas erfarenheter och uppfattningar i relation till hur normkritisk pedagogik och genusfrågor synliggörs i barns dramalek därför har vi använt intervjuer som datainsamlingsmetod. Resultatet visade att samtliga intervjuade pedagoger uppfattar och använder drama som en pedagogisk kontext för att undersöka jämställdhet tillsammans med barn på ett lekfullt sätt. Detta, i sin tur, belyser dramas kraft som ett normbrytande pedagogiskt verktyg. Resultatet visade även hur pedagogernas förhållningssätt i relation till normer och stereotyper påverkar och utformar sättet barn upplever normer och stereotyper samt hur dramapedagogik bidrar till barns normkritiskt tänkande. Till sist, tydliggjordes hur viktigt pedagogernas medvetandegörande och närvaro är för att styra lärandet utifrån barns behov, medan olika utmaningar som uppstår bör lösas genom en god kollegial och föräldrasamverkan. / The purpose of the study was to investigate educators' perceptions of and knowledge about working with gender and drama and to shed light on the possible challenges they face in their work. The study is characterized by a qualitative method and is based on a social constructionist perspective. Our ambition was to collect the educators' experiences and perceptions in relation to how norm-critical pedagogy and gender issues are made visible in children's drama play, which is why we have used interviews as a data collection method. The results showed that all interviewed educators perceive and use drama as a pedagogical context to investigate gender equality with children in a playful way. This, in turn, highlights the power of drama as a norm-breaking pedagogical tool. The results also showed how the educators' attitudes in relation to norms and stereotypes affect and shape the way children experience norms and stereotypes and how drama pedagogy contributes to children's norm-critical thinking. Finally, it was clarified how important the educators' awareness and presence is to guide learning based on children's needs, while various challenges that arise should be solved through good collegial and parent collaboration.
