The Emerging Paradigm of Reader-Text Transaction: Contributions of John Dewey and Louise M. Rosenblatt, with Implications for EducatorsRoth, Elizabeth H. 02 April 2000 (has links)
This dissertation will trace the emerging paradigm of transaction as a model for the dynamics of the reading process.
The paradigm of transaction, implicit in John Dewey's writings as early as 1896 in "The Reflex Arc Concept in Psychology," was originally described in terms of "interaction" between organism and environment. Only in 1949, in the twilight of his career, did Dewey definitively distinguish between "transaction" and "interaction," ascribing a mutually transformative character to the former process. In Knowing and the Known, Dewey and co-author Arthur F. Bentley (1949) proposed adoption of a wholly new "transactional vocabulary" as a precision tool for a new mode of scientific inquiry, whereby inquiry itself was recognized as a species of transaction between inquirer and observed phenomena.
Even before the publication of Knowing and the Known, literary theorist Louise M. Rosenblatt had applied an implicitly transactional model of the relationship between organism and environment to the relationship between reader and text. She described this dynamic model of the reading process in Literature as Exploration (first published in 1938), a work that has inspired an ongoing revolution in the teaching of reading and literature at all instructional levels. In the first edition of this work, Rosenblatt employed Dewey's original term--"interaction"--to describe the dynamic relationship between reader and text. Following the publication of Knowing and the Known in 1949, Rosenblatt began systematically to appropriate Dewey and Bentley's transactional terminology in her analysis of the reader-text relationship.
Educators who share the transactional vision of Dewey and Rosenblatt tend to see the role of the teacher as that of a facilitator of reader-text transaction and of reader-reader transaction as arbitrated by the text, rather than as an imparter of authoritative interpretations of texts. Envisioning potentialities for students' growth through such transactions gives rise neither to sanguine optimism nor to despair, but rather to a hopeful meliorism. / Ph. D.

Oral Interpretation of Literature: An Approach to Teaching Middle School EnglishHall, Donna R. 08 1900 (has links)
The purpose of this study was to illustrate the usefulness of oral interpretation in the teaching of English literature at the middle school level. Four areas of literature: poetry, short story, mythology, and drama, were approached through methods of oral interpretation and/or recommendations in the teacher's resource manual accompanying the textbook. A descriptive review was made of the response to the material by the students and the methods of presentation by the instructor. The primary value of approaching the study of literature through oral interpretation was increased interest and motivation among the students and their generally positive reaction to the methods used.

Skönlitteraturens roll i grundskolans tidiga år : En studie om lärares val av skönlitterära texter i årskurs F-3 i ämnet svenska / The Role of Fiction in the Early Years of Primary School : A Study on Teachers' Choice of Fictional Texts in Grades F-3 in the Subject of SwedishLarsson, Ida, Göransson, Sofie January 2023 (has links)
Denna studies syfte är att undersöka hur lärare i F-3 väljer skönlitterära texter till sin undervisning och vilka kriterier och faktorer som påverkar deras val. Studien baseras på ett webbaserat frågeformulär som skickades ut via sociala medier till olika lärare som undervisar i årskurserna F-3. Resultatet visar att lärarna är aktiva i sitt val av skönlitteratur och att de prioriterar texter som engagerar eleverna, är anpassade för deras elevgrupp och har en koppling till elevernas vardag och verklighet. Resultatet visar även att det finns skillnader mellan äldre och yngre lärare i hur de värderar språk, stil och kvalitet i skönlitteraturen och hur de får inspiration till att välja texter. Studien diskuterar hur dessa skillnader kan ha samband med de läroplaner som lärarna har utbildats och arbetat efter. Studien slår fast att de flesta lärare som deltog i studien är medvetna om skönlitteraturens roll för elevernas lärande och väljer därför litteratur som berikar elevernas språk, språkförståelse, läsförståelse och läsglädje. / The purpose of this study is to investigate how teachers in grades F-3 choose fictional texts for their teaching and what criteria and factors influence their choices. The study is based on a web-based questionnaire that was sent out via social media to different teachers who teach in grades F-3. The results show that the teachers are active in their choice of literature and that they prioritize texts that engage the students, are adapted for their student group, and have a connection to the students' everyday life and reality. The results also show that there are differences between older and younger teachers in how they value language, style, and quality in literature and how they get inspiration to choose texts. The study discusses how these differences may be related to the curricula that the teachers have been educated and worked according to. The study concludes that most of the teachers who participated in the study are aware of the role of literature for the students' learning and therefore choose literature that enriches the students' language, language comprehension, reading comprehension and reading enjoyment.

ENVISIONING YOUNG ADULT LITERATURE : A STUDY ON TEACHING ENVISIONMENT IN THE ESL-CLASSROOMHeier, Karolina January 2017 (has links)
This essay is based on Judith A. Langer’s many years of literacy research and her concepts of ‘the literate mind’ and ‘envisionment building’ in the classroom. In addition to Langer’s theories, I consider several other strategies for reading, some of which have evolved from Langer’s ideas and are adapted to fit the teaching of English for Swedish upper secondary school. Furthermore, I discuss the benefits of teaching a foreign language with the help of literature in general and Young Adult (YA) literature in particular. Working with YA literature in the classroom can not only help students develop a greater empathy towards others, but is also well suited for teaching reading strategies to teenagers. In the analysis, I demonstrate a didactic approach with the help of extracts from Ruta Sepetys’ Between Shades of Gray (2011). My findings indicate that reading Young Adult literature can benefit teenagers’ personal growth as well as their language learning and general knowledge. Lastly, I assert that envisionment building can both lead to reevaluation of the readers themselves as well as to a greater understanding of different texts and the readers’ perception of the historical and contemporary world.

Leitura cultural no ensino de literatura / CULTURAL EDUCATION IN READING LITERATURE.Jesus, Jairton Mendonça de 20 January 2011 (has links)
This work brings a reflection about as the cultural questions may permeate the teaching of literature. Traditionally the teaching of literature gives directions for the study of literary historiography which, by times, it does not elect as a priority the reading of literary text. Thus, our main purpose is to think the social formation of reader over in the way we will search new way-outs for the literature classes as to the questionings purposed by the cultural criticism. By the vies of Cultural Studies, this methodological reflection comes out from the beginning that the identity belonging and the ideological questions are fundamental to the literature classes, then, in the reading and in the discussion on literary text, we may include racial and sexual and gender questions. Collected data at Itabaiana s schools serve us from empirical base to question the traditional historiographic teaching. As to these reflections, the purpose is to suggest that the literary text is taken as an indispensable means in the teaching of literature.
Methodologically, this work embodies in questions about identity, cultural studies and racial questions to approach the representation of Negro in literature. We exploited the reflections of Tzvetan Todorov and Regina Zilberman about identity and culture. Therefore, the literary reading is defended as a practice of interaction between cultural inheritance and current critical view. For us to apply a purpose of literary text reading, we chosen a few Jorge de Lima s texts in order to comment on a purpose of cultural reading which assesses the reader s
active role when questioning different approaches about the representation of Negro in literature. / Este trabalho traz uma reflexão sobre como as questões culturais podem permear o ensino de literatura. Tradicionalmente o ensino de literatura se pauta no estudo da historiografia literária, que, por vezes, não elege como prioridade a leitura do texto literário. Assim, nosso principal objetivo é refletir sobre a formação social do leitor de modo que busquemos novas saídas para as aulas de literatura a partir dos questionamentos propostos pela crítica cultural. Pelo viés dos Estudos Culturais, essa reflexão metodológica parte do princípio de que o pertencimento identitário e as questões ideológicas são fundamentais para as aulas de literatura, pois, na leitura e debate do texto literário, podemos incluir questões raciais, sexuais e de gênero. Dados coletados em escolas de Itabaiana/SE nos servem de base empírica para questionar o ensino historiográfico tradicional. A partir dessas reflexões, a proposta é sugerir que o texto literário seja tomado como meio indispensável no ensino de literatura. Metodologicamente, este trabalho incorpora questões sobre identidade, estudos culturais e questões raciais para abordar a representação do negro na literatura. Exploramos as reflexões de Tzvetan Todorov e Regina Zilberman sobre ensino de literatura, e as de Stuart Hall e Boaventua Santos sobre identidade e cultura. Portanto, a leitura literária é defendida como uma prática de interação entre herança cultural e uma visão crítica atual. Para aplicarmos uma proposta de leitura do texto literário, selecionamos alguns textos de Jorge de Lima a fim de comentar uma proposta de leitura cultural que valoriza o papel ativo do leitor ao questionar
diferentes abordagens sobre a representação do negro na literatura.

A formação da historiografia da literatura brasileira : uma história dos cânones escolares no Brasil (1759-1890)Cardoso, João Escobar 10 March 2011 (has links)
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / What is seen nowadays as the history of literature, if was not born, certainly developed and acquired the molds that today is so unique, in school and to school, configuring as projects constituting the literary nationality and the nation itself. Thus, the overall objective of the study is to analyze the first three compendiums of Brazilian literature: Curso elementar de literatura nacional (1862), by Fernandes Pinheiro, O Brasil literário, by Ferdinand Wolf and Curso de literatura portuguesa e brasileira (1866-1871), by Francisco Sotero dos Reis, relating them to the development of the discipline of literature in the curricula of secondary education in its gradual path to independence from the chair of rhetoric, noting how such books have been responsible for building and consolidating the canon of national literature, as well as the invention of a literary tradition in the country. This work is affiliated to the line 2 of the Research Group History of the Teaching of Languages in Brazil, entitled "Literary History and Teaching of Literature: a history of the school canons in Brazil". This line attempts to identify the processes by which, in different times or periods, certain works or authors remained in the condition of classics and some not, in reading textbooks or in the history of literature. For this research, it is taken into account not only the domestic agents, but also the typographical devices, as well as other external actors in the process of constructing the meaning of texts. Thus, we used assumptions brought by authors of literary studies, Carpeaux (1959), Culler (1999), Eagleton (1985), Souza (1999) and (2007); of the history of reading practices, Chartier (2000) and Hebrárd (2001), of cultural studies, Anderson (2008), Hall (2005), Hobsbawm, Renan (2005) and Williams (1960) and of the history of school subjects and textbooks, Chervel (1990) and Choppin (2004). / O que se concebe atualmente como história da literatura, se não nasceu, certamente se desenvolveu, adquirindo os moldes que hoje lhe são característicos, na escola e para a escola, configurando-se como projetos constitutivos da nacionalidade literária e da própria nação. Desse modo, o objetivo geral do trabalho é analisar os três primeiros compêndios de história da literatura brasileira: Curso elementar de literatura nacional (1862), do Cônego Fernandes Pinheiro, O Brasil literário (1863), de Ferdinand Wolf e Curso de literatura portuguesa e brasileira (1866-1871), de Francisco Sotero dos Reis, relacionando-os ao desenvolvimento da disciplina de literatura nos currículos do Ensino Secundário em seu gradativo rumo à independência em relação à cadeira de Retórica, observando o modo como tais empreitadas historiográficas foram responsáveis pela construção e consolidação do cânone da literatura nacional, bem como pela invenção de uma tradição literária no país. Este trabalho filia-se à linha 2 do Grupo de Pesquisa História do Ensino das Línguas no Brasil, intitulada "História Literária e Ensino da Literatura: para uma história dos cânones escolares no Brasil". Esta linha intenta verificar os processos mediante os quais, em períodos ou épocas diferentes, algumas obras ou autores se mantiveram na condição de clássicos e outros não, nos manuais didáticos de leitura ou de história da literatura. Para tal investigação, levam-se em conta não só os agentes internos, mas também os dispositivos tipográficos, bem como os demais agentes externos, no processo de construção de significação dos textos. Dessa forma, foram utilizados pressupostos trazidos por autores dos estudos literários, Carpeaux (1959), Culler (1999), Eagleton (1985), Souza (1999) e (2007); da história das práticas de leitura, Chartier (2000) e Hebrárd (2001); dos estudos culturais, Anderson (2008), Hall (2005), Hobsbawn, Renan (2005) e Williams (1960) e da história das disciplinas escolares e dos livros didáticos, Chervel (1990) e Choppin (2004).

Sharing of Narratives : Analyzing how Tara Westover’s Educated Subverts the Genre Conventions and the Value of Autobiography in the EFL ClassroomKooijman, Rebecca January 2021 (has links)
This essay presents a literary analysis of the autobiography Educated (2018) by Tara Westover. The analysis examines to what extent Westover’s story conforms and subverts the genre conventions of the Bildungsroman and the autobiography. An overview of the genre constitutions is therefore provided. In addition, the essay focuses on the use of the autobiography in the English as a Foreign Language (EFL) classroom. Besides creating an arena for critical discussion and reflection in the Swedish upper secondary school, the autobiography may also encourage students to share their own stories. The findings show that Educated both conforms to and subverts the Bildungsroman genre. It is concluded that Westover’s autobiography challenges traditional genre conventions and may serve as a valuable tool in the EFL classroom.

Heder på schemat : En didaktisk studie av hederskultur i svensk ungdomslitteraturThörnqvist, Petter January 2011 (has links)
This thesis investigates the concept of honour and why this is a relevant concept in the teaching of literature in the school subject of Swedish. In order to investigate this I have analyzed two Young Adult books; Heder (2002) and Fallen flicka (2009) by the author Christina Wahldén. These books show how young women of today are systematically subordinated and how their lives are controlled by male relatives. This culturally specific oppression of young women is constituted by ancient concepts of honour, which in turn are interlinked with women’s sexuality and the male control of it. The oppression has its roots in patriarchal and traditional thinking which is specifically characteristic for an honour culture. Both the male as well as the female characters are modeled by the author in order to make a didactic point. She wants to put the oppressive males on display in order to make us (the readers) aware of the horrific situation that many young women of today suffer from. In order to problematize this I apply postcolonial theory. This theoretical approach allows me to question the way in which the characters are constructed in the books. The standpoint which Christina Wahldén takes in writing her books is disputed, and in this thesis I discuss different viewpoints on this matter. On the one hand there are those intellectuals who agree with the above stated. On the other hand there are others who disagree and instead of a clear-cut cultural pattern, view the concept of honour and how it is used in societal debate with great suspicion. For them the finger pointing only cements prejudices and construct clear-cut difference-markers between Us: the good and modern, and Them: the evil and barbaric. Postcolonial theory lends its support to this latter way of thinking. In this thesis I therefore discuss postcolonial theory at lengths. In this discussion I rely on three theorists’ viewpoints in particular: Edward Said, Gayatri Spivak and Homi Bhabha. My own understanding of postcolonial theory is founded on the central thoughts which these theorists advocate. Besides lending its theoretical viewpoints to my readings of Christina Wahldén’s books, Postcolonial theory also influences my didactic discussions. In these discussions I try to explore why, and in what way, Postcolonial theory is applicable to the school subject of Swedish. My own view is that it can be used as a pedagogic tool to enable critical readings. I find this theoretical approach valuable in order for the school subject of Swedish to become a democratic one which engages the students to practice critical thinking and together read, write and discuss texts dealing with the conflicts that surrounds them in today’s multicultural society. In this thesis I argue strongly for this kind of awareness, an awareness which results in an understanding for the purpose of teaching Literature as a way of dealing with topics of significance for the students as members of a democratic society.
