Narrative interrelation : a cognitive account of intertextuality and its application to the study of literatureMason, Jessica L. January 2016 (has links)
This thesis develops a cognitively grounded framework which operationalises the concept of intertextuality, facilitating linguistic analysis of the role it can play in readers’ responses to, interpretations of, and discussions about, texts. The thesis demonstrates the application of this ‘narrative interrelation framework’ in two contexts: the adult reading group and the secondary school English classroom. In doing so, the thesis reflects on the forms, functions and utility of intertextual booktalk, and explores why intertextuality may manifest differently in different environments. The research symbiotically unites the fields of education research and cognitive linguistics, advancing our understanding of reading and studying fiction in secondary schools in England. The thesis aims in particular to contribute to our understanding of the use of the ‘class reader’ - reading a set text as a group - which remains the most prevalent model of reading fiction with students, both in England and internationally. Class reader units are explored along two key dimensions: conceptualising students and teachers as readers, and considering the classroom as a type of reading space. The first part of this research focuses on understanding and mapping cognition processes which underlie intertextuality, both in terms of how readers make intertextual links between stories as well how they process, understand and engage with the intertextual references they encounter. The second part of this research considers the classroom environment in contrast to another site where readers gather to discuss a text: the reading group. A contrastive analysis of these two environments looks to understand the nature of the reading experience in the classroom and, in particular, how it affects the links students make between stories. A final part of the thesis will reflect on the aspects of reading and booktalk which are facilitated or inhibited in different discourse environments. Ultimately, the thesis characterises the nature of the ‘class reader’ experience and considers the implications this has for pedagogy, for engagement and for our understanding of what class readers are intended to, and what they do, achieve as a core staple of the English curriculum. The research examines two datasets representing two distinct types of reading experience of the same two novels: Holes by Louis Sachar (1999) and Animal Farm by George Orwell (1945). The first is a 320,000 word corpus of English lesson transcripts comprising two complete ‘class reader’ schemes of work: a Year 7 mixed ability group studying Holes and a Year 9 top set group studying Animal Farm. The second 40,000 word corpus captures two sessions of an adult reading group, made up predominantly of English graduates, meeting to discuss the same two texts.

Raising European citizens? : European narratives, European schools and students' identification with EuropeRohde-Liebenau, Judith January 2017 (has links)
Fostering identification with Europe among citizens could legitimise European integration. Whether such an identity exists, however, remains an on-going debate among scholars. This research returns to the foundations of how a European identity is constructed, transmitted and transformed. It explores narratives of European identity in a carefully chosen context - European Schools for children of EU officials - where identification with Europe should mirror official EU visions. A qualitative content analysis explores narrations of 101 students collected during interviews and focus groups across three schools, and analyses documents and interviews with EU officials, school directors and teachers. This analysis reveals a descriptive puzzle: official EU and European School propositions of (multi-) national narratives differ markedly from teachers' and students' conceptions of cosmopolitan and transnational identities. The EU constructs an out-group of its own nationalist past and non-EU citizens. On the other hand, students construct an explicitly European in-group, but differentiate themselves from more national and less mobile lifestyles. This disparity, in turn, reveals a causal puzzle about how differences in narratives emerge. I use process tracing to elucidate the relationship between European schooling and students' identification with Europe. The results show a distorted transmission where broader EU goals are elaborated and transformed by teachers and further fuelled by interactions amongst students with similarly mobile and multilingual backgrounds. I develop a dual mechanism to understand how the varieties of identification with Europe develop: the concept of "doing Europe" explains how students nourish a transnational social network; "telling Europe", on the other hand, considers students' exposure to European symbols and stories in school and both national and anti-nationalist narratives provided by teachers and peers. Together, this leads to a transformed but ultimately European in-group understanding. Overall, this project underlines the complexity of identity construction, given that top-down transmission gets altered even in this favourable case. Specifically, it informs future research on European identity by detailing peculiar narratives and offering a causal approach to how these narratives emerge.

Previous issue date: 2013 / Resumo: Este trabalho é uma narrativa a respeito do processo de ensino-aprendizado da ginástica desenvolvido com alunos do ensino fundamental I, em uma escola pública da rede municipal de Vinhedo/SP. As perguntas em torno do mesmo são relacionadas ao modo como processos de criação constituem esse processo de ensino-aprendizado da ginástica na escola. A partir de algumas reflexões de Salles (2008) e com base nas perspectivas crítico-superadora da educação física (COLETIVO DE AUTORES, 1992), histórico-cultural (VYGOSTSKY, 2008) e enunciativo-discursiva (BAKHTIN, 1990; 2010) é realizada uma análise dos documentos que fizeram parte do processo estudado a fim de compreendê-lo. O material analisado englobou fotos de família, comunicados escolares, registros escritos de séries de ginástica, jornais, convites, certificados de participação em eventos, folhetos de programa de apresentações de ginástica, trabalho de conclusão de curso, artigos, obras relacionadas à metodologia para o ensino-aprendizado da educação física na escola e para o ensino da ginástica na escola, programas de planos de aula, registros de acontecimentos em aulas, avaliações dos alunos, fotos dos alunos. Ao longo dos estudos, foi possível encontrar e revelar alguns processos de criação relacionados à ginástica constituindo o processo de ensino-aprendizado da ginástica desenvolvido em seis anos de atuação da professora-autora na escola estudada. Um dos processos encontrados teve como "objeto" criado a ideia de corpo que pratica ginástica, ginástica e escola pública. As principais interações transformadoras desses conceitos ocorreram na escola pública quando a professora ainda era aluna. Outro processo encontrado teve como "objeto" criado as propostas metodológicas para o ensino-aprendizado da educação física e da ginástica na escola, tendo seu tempo, espaço e principais interações transformadoras constituídas na universidade quando a professora era aluna de graduação. O processo de criação das práticas pedagógicas relacionadas à ginástica na escola, mais um "objeto" encontrado, aconteceu na escola estudada, nas interações com os alunos. Um último processo localizado, aquele que os alunos criam a ginástica também aconteceu nesse tempo e espaço, constituído por essas interações. Compreendidos como criações em rede, notou-se que o inacabamento desses processos de criação foram, e são, impulsionadores na constituição do processo de ensino-aprendizado da ginástica na escola estudada. / Abstract: This works is a narrative regarding to teaching-learning process of gymnastic developed with students of an elementary school in a public school of District of Vinhedo - SP. The questions around itself are related to how processes of creation constitute this process of teaching-learning of gymnastic in school. Since some Salles reflections (2008) and anchored in perspectives of overcoming-critical of physical education (COLETIVO DE AUTORES, 1992), historic-cultural (VYGOTSKY, 2008), and enunciative-discursive (BAKHTIN, 1990, 2010), it has been made analysis of documents which were part of the inquired process in order to understand it. The analyzed documents included: pictures of family, school messages, written registers from sequences of gymnastic, newspapers, invitations, event certificates, leaflets of program of gymnastic performance, articles, work of course study conclusion, works related to methodology for teaching-learning of physical education in school and of teaching of gymnastic in school, planning classes programs, registrations of happenings in classes, students appraisals and pictures of students. Along of this study, it was possible to find and reveal some processes of creation related to gymnastic constituting the process of teaching-learning of gymnastic developed in six years of performance by teacher in the referred school. One of the process found had as an "object" created an idea of body who practice gymnastic, gymnastic and public school. The mainly transformers interactions of these concepts occurred to public school when the teacher was still a student. Another process, which was found had as an "object" created the methodological proposals for teaching-learning physical education and gymnastic in school, having its time, space and mainly transformers interactions constituted in the University when the teacher was still a graduated student. The process of creation of pedagogical practices related to gymnastic in school, another one found "object" occurred to that studied school, in the interactions with students. The last one located process, that the students create the gymnastic, also took place in that time and space, formed by these interactions. Understood as creations in net, it was noticed that the unending of themselves were and are the impulse in the constitution to the process of teaching-learning of gymnastics in the studied school. / Mestrado / Educação, Conhecimento, Linguagem e Arte / Mestra em Educação

Zavádění montessori principů vzdělávání do ekonomických předmětů na obchodní akademii / Introduction of montessori principles of education to economic subjects at High schoolsBarteček, Marek January 2017 (has links)
Thesis aims to find out whether or not it is possible to implement Montessori principles of education into economical subjects on High schools. Parst of the Thesis are also preparations for teaching of economical subjects with Montessori principals. At the end reader can find out more information about methods, forms, content, didactic aids and didactic technique which can be used to implement Montessori principles appropriately. Author used several different experimental methods like experimental teaching, self-reflection of the practitioner, questionnaire survey in the class where experimental teaching took place and didactic test for pupils who participated in experimental teaching. As a result, implementation of Montessori principles is possible and has advantages (better atmosphere in class, better way to achieve educational goals) and disadvantages (problems with fixation).

'The opportunity to study History' : curriculum politics and school pupils' subject choice in the General Certificate of Secondary EducationMcMahon, Patrick J. January 2008 (has links)
This study investigates (a) the existence of changes in pupils' perceptions of Key Stage 3 (KS3) History as they move from Year 8 (Y8) to Year 9 (Y9), when they make choices about which subjects they will study for General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) during Key Stage 4 (KS4), and (b) whether any changes might influence their choices. The study adopts a qualitative approach involving 500 pupils and more than 60 teachers in 10 schools over two years. The place and usage of History in contemporary society are explored. The origins of History as a educational issue are reviewed from the late 18th Century to the late 20th Century when there was considerable debate as to what information should be taught, what skills should be developed and which teaching methodologies should be employed. These aspects were at times polarised when 'traditional' teaching seemed to be at odds with the 'new' Schools Council History Project, against a background of an evolving national examination system. With the compulsory inclusion of Citizenship within schools' curricula, the role and methodology of History are subject to further debate. The origins of the current situation, where school History is a non-compulsory subject in the compulsory state-maintained sector, is outlined with reference to issues and debates which led to comprehensive schools delivering History as an element of the National Curriculum as initially presented in the Education Reform Act (ERA) of 1988, which has since been subject to review and amendment. The study deals with the introduction, implementation and development of the ERA (1987 –2000) and focuses on the proposals for the subject of History, responses from teachers, administrators and Government as well as amendments proposed by the Dearing reviews leading towards Curriculum 2000. The background to the current GCSE examination scheme is reviewed along with the requirements for compulsory and non-compulsory subjects, and the rationales employed by individual schools when constructing ‘GCSE option choice schemes’. Factors that may affect pupils’ perceptions of History in their Y8 and Y9 are discussed. The sets of data collected reveal ways in which pupils may be influenced by (i) personal perceptions of interest, enjoyment, demands of work and usefulness in later life and (ii) externally-controlled issues such as socio-economic circumstances, access to Special Educational Needs (SEN) or language support, and the nature of the KS3 History curriculum they experience

General National Vocational Qualifications (GNVQs) : the relationship between liberal, general and vocational education, with special reference to business studies for 16-19 year oldsSmith, Vikki January 1997 (has links)
GNVQs epitomise one strand of contemporary philosophy of education. However, a question that arises is whether GNVQs, having built on the ethos of NVQs, abandon all earlier educational philosophies in favour of the competence movement endorsed in the USA. A question central to this study revolves around whether earlier, alternative philosophies of education also have something of value to offer. To answer this, traditional approaches to educational provision are identified and explored in terms of their possible 'ideal types'; these ideal types being seen to be represented by liberal, general and vocational education. To give such ideal types relevance in modern society they are related to significant educational provision, in this instance educational provision for 16 - 19 year olds. A curriculum criticism of A Levels, BTEC Diplomas, RSA, NVQs and GNVQs is therefore conducted, taking into account the historical development, philosophy, aims, the content and the teaching and learning methods of each approach. To achieve parity of comparison the field of Business Studies was used as an exemplar. The culmination of this stage of the research requires that the findings of the curriculum criticism are mapped against the established ideal types, the purpose being to identify elements that could be said to embody liberal, general and/or vocational education. For example, GNVQs are clearly linked to the vocational, their breadth can also be said to contribute to the general, but are they liberal in any way? The findings indicated that the inclusion of Key Skills and the student centred approach did offer some potential for a liberal education. To support these findings interviews and an attitudinal survey were conducted. The rationale for this was to explore and reveal the extent to which staff and students concerned with GNVQ Business held the same beliefs as those generated by the desk research; both sets of findings were in concordance. The final stage of the research programme was concerned with the future direction of GNVQs. Interviews were conducted with education policy makers and industry representatives. They were concerned with what the 'ideal' post-1 6 education programme would entail in the light of perceptions of liberal/vocational/general education. Staff and students were again consulted by way of vedfication of the conclusions drawn. The research concludes that liberal education was considered by many as the ideal way forward for post-16 education. GNVQs were seen as predominantly offering general education. From this one could infer that GNVQs are not, therefore, seen as the ideal post-1 6 programme. However, when 'ideal' elements of post-1 6 education are discussed some consideration of the world of work was deemed essential (though not a concern of traditional liberal education) and the inclusion of Key Skills were deemed important, as was a student centred approach to learning. In the light of this GNVQs have some potential for meeting the desired/essential components of an ideal post-16 education programme. Greater consideration, however, is required with regard to self-development and social awareness in order to promote liberal aspects of post-16 education. A combination of these factors within a GNVQ programme would represent a marriage of liberal, vocational and, general education philosophies and approaches to education; an 'ideal'post-16 education programme.

Further education, political economy and social changeSimmons, Robin January 2009 (has links)
This submission contains eight papers and a synoptic commentary to be examined for the award of PhD on the Basis of Published Work. The papers focus upon the further education (FE) system in England. Each examines significant contemporary or historical issues and provides a critical analysis of the changing nature of FE. Collectively, the publications constitute an original and significant contribution to understanding further education and the social and economic context within which it is placed. The commentary highlights the links between the different papers and demonstrates their coherence; it locates the publications within an overarching analytical framework; and it shows how the work submitted makes a significant contribution to knowledge. It also explains my contribution to the three coauthored papers that constitute part of this thesis. It is argued that, taken together, my work provides a sustained and consistent critique of the English further education system from a critical materialist perspective.
