A Study On The Nature And Frequency Of The Interaction And The Factors Affecting Interaction In Language Classrooms

Zengin, Emine 01 December 2008 (has links) (PDF)
The purpose of this study was to describe and explore the nature and frequency of the interaction and the factors affecting interaction in language classrooms. This qualitative study was conducted in a private language course in Ankara, Turkey. The sample consisted of 6 teachers. The data were collected through video-camera, semi-structred interview and demographic information log. To tackle the complexity of the raw data, data were first subjected to constant comparison analysis. Second, all results were tabulated and interpreted. The results indicated the amount of teacher talk outweighed student talk and teachers spent on average one third of the lesson on lecturing. Besides, it was observed teachers spent approximately 3 % of the lesson on questioning and teachers ask more low-level questions than high-level questions. In addition, the results revealed teacher-initiated interaction outweighed student-initiated interaction and both teacher-initiated and student-initiated interactions outweighed student-student interaction. It was also observed male students interact with teacher more than females. Lastly, the results indicated teachers criticized males more than females. In addition, the results about the nature of interaction indicated students used the method of shouting the answer or idea directly most as the way of initiating interaction with teacher. Furthermore, they had most interaction with teachers so as to ask questions related to the lesson. Also, the results showed the teachers used the method of addressing the whole class as the way of initiating interaction with students. Finally, the teachers used the questioning strategy most as a means of initiating interaction with students.

Male Subjectivity in the Narratives of Daniel Defoe and Jonathan Swift

Shih, Yao-hsi 11 September 2007 (has links)
This thesis argues that all subjects are constructed through discourse or ideology and are incapable of acting or thinking outside the limits of that discursive or ideological construction. Based on Louis Althusser¡¦s theory, ¡§individuals are always-already subjects,¡¨ living in ¡§the system of the ideas and representations which dominate the mind of a man or a social group.¡¨ This Marxist notion serves as the point of departure for the thesis, which defines a subject¡¦s imaginary relation to the world. For Defoe and Swift, their ideological subjection to ¡§the system of the ideas and representations¡¨ is presented in their narratives, which relate the respective subject¡¦s imagination to the world in the eighteenth century. The first chapter begins with Ian Watt¡¦s critique of the eighteenth century individualism, which demands domestic alienation. It argues that if Gulliver¡¦s misanthropy loses its moral dimension, his domestic alienation is questionable. As Gulliver¡¦s counterpart, Crusoe bases his autonomy upon nonreciprocal human relationships, and his self-claimed omnipotence, under constant threats, is false and illusory. The second chapter modifies Helene Moglen¡¦s dualistic interpretation of Crusoe¡¦s consciousness and analyzes his internal contradictions from the perspective of Hegelian dialectics. The course of establishing the colonial hierarchy in Robinson Crusoe further exposes the dialectical reality of colonial tension and contradiction, which also lends itself to interpreting the triangular relationships among the Houyhnhnms, Gulliver, and the Yahoos in Gulliver¡¦s Travels. In the third chapter, the focus of concern shifts to the representation of sexual other. Though Roxana and Moll are constructed to emulate Crusoe and embody the female versions of economic autonomy, these two female-based narratives, Roxana and Moll Flanders, bring to light the paradoxes of eighteenth-century male subjectivity that discriminates men from women in terms of domesticity and individualism. While Roxana is further commodified to be enlisted in the service of imperialist ideology to mask the reality of colonial aggression and imperialist expansion, the same sleight of substitution also underlies Swift¡¦s systematic attacks on women in his Irish Tracts and misogynist poems. Lastly, the fourth chapter aims to bring these two categories of difference together. Through Swift¡¦s and Defoe¡¦s imagination, the racial other and their sexual counterpart enter into a metaphorical alliance. Thus Defoe¡¦s Amazon and Swift¡¦s Yahoo trope not only synthesize what are considered two discrete and separate categories of discrimination, but also demonstrate that their creations of race and gender derive from the same source of reference.

Magnificence and materiality : the commerce and culture of Flemish luxuries in late medieval Scotland

French, Morvern January 2017 (has links)
This thesis explores the prestige associated in late medieval Scotland with Flemish luxury products, using a material culture-based approach founded on the premise that objects can reveal the beliefs and attitudes of those who used them. Adding to existing scholarship which concentrates on the economic, political, and diplomatic connections between Scotland and Flanders, this research offers a new artefactual dimension to this relationship. It challenges the perception of Scotland as culturally and materially unsophisticated while simultaneously considering how objects were used in the expression of elite power and status. What drives this work is that late medieval Scottish elites were fully immersed in the most highly regarded and fashionable material trends of western Europe and that their consumption patterns fit into a wider mentality which saw Flemish craftsmanship as an ideal. A new model is thus presented, moving away from the traditional concentration on fluctuating wool exports and taking into account the cultural agency of noble, ecclesiastic, and burghal elites. It entails the initial examination of Scottish consumer demand and its impact on the Flemish luxury market. Following this are chapters on gift exchange and the presentation of magnificence, centred around the perception of the Flemish aesthetic as representative of elite status. Finally, this approach is applied to the burghal and clerical spheres, arguing that Flemish church furniture played a role in the formation and maintenance of elite urban identities. The comprehensive examination of artefactual sources, combined with the commercial, ritual, and ceremonial evidence found in written sources, enables the building up of a clearer impression of Scoto-Flemish material culture than has previously been realised. It is demonstrated that the material environment of late medieval Scottish elites was comparable to those of other European polities, constituting a common cultural sphere furnished by the luxury products of Flanders and the southern Low Countries.

Le procureur général Ladislas de Baralle et le ministère public près le parlement de Flandre (1691-1714) / Ladislas de Baralle and Public prosecution in Flanders’ Parlement (1691-1714)

Fontaine, Clotilde 25 April 2019 (has links)
En 1668, Louis XIV établit un conseil souverain à Tournai afin de favoriser le retour de la paix au sein des territoires annexés. Promettant originellement de conserver les usages et particularismes locaux, le monarque souhaite progressivement assimiler la cour souveraine, devenue parlement en 1686, au modèle français. L’approche envisagée permettra une réflexion sur l’histoire du ministère public flamand sous le prisme de l’un de ses « hommes », Ladislas de Baralle, procureur général de 1691 à 1714. Si l’exceptionnelle longévité de sa carrière justifie le choix de cette figure marquante, cette étude s’étend au-delà d’un simple projet prosopographique. L’activité du procureur général s’inscrit en effet au coeur d’une période de bouleversements historiques en Flandre. Ladislas de Baralle, représentant du monarque et garant de l’interprétation des textes royaux, n’en reste pas moins un fervent défenseur de la coutume héritée des Pays-Bas qu’il tente d’appliquer dans un souci d’apaisement. / The 17th and 18th centuries appear as a period of conquests and territorial changes in Europe, particularly in Flanders. In 1668, the southern part of the former Spanish Low Countries are attached to the French crown. To bring peace back in the province, Louis XIV decided to create a court for the newly conquered territories, the conseil souverain of Tournai. This sovereign court replaced the former councils of Flanders and Mons and the Great Council of Malines to judge in appeal the cases brought before the courts of the annexed territories. In 1686, the institution obtained the title of parlement to be definitely assimilated. During its first years of existence, the parlement of Flanders had to assert its particularities. Indeed, when Louis XIV created the court, he promised to keep the Flemish customs and privileges. He therefore appointed local jurists who knew them. In 1691, Ladislas de Baralle became General Procurator. He had one of the longest careers, twenty-three years of office. If today the prosecutor’s function mainly applies to litigation, his role during Ancien Régime was much larger. He embodied the King’s prerogatives and ensured the enforcement of royal legislation in the parlement’s jurisdiction. In spite of his promises, Louis XIV tried progressively to enforce “French” law and procedure in the realm while Flanders asserted its particular Coutumes and privileges. Born in Flanders but representing Louis XIV, how could Baralle balance both roles ?

The Defense Mechanisms of Moll Flanders : A Psychoanalytical Essay

Jakobsson, Tina January 2020 (has links)
The essay analyzes how and why Moll Flanders’s childhood created mental and emotional patterns that would come to shape her personality and affect her behavior. The analysis will use psychoanalytical theories by Sigmund Freud and Jacques Lacan to discern what defense mechanisms and desires Moll developed in childhood and how these presented themselves throughout her life. The essay concludes that she has a fear of abandonment and intimacy and that she uses denial and sublimation to repress anxiety and guilt. Moll’s core desire is to find stability, which is why she continuously strives for financial security due to equating money to comfort and safety. She sublimates her unconscious desire to replace her childhood caretakers and her repressed fears of annihilation by finding new men to take care of her. However, Moll’s unconscious keeps causing her to repeat negative behavioral patterns which trap her in cycles of fortune and misfortune.
