‘Challenging disabling attitudes,building an inclusive society’: considering the role of education in encouraging non‐disabled children to develop positive attitudes towards disabled people     

Angharad E. Beckett 《British Journal of Sociology of Education》2009,30(3):317-329

In the United Kingdom, the introduction of the Disability Equality Duty 2006 has provided a new window of opportunity to promote the idea that education has a role to play in changing non‐disabled children/young people’s attitudes towards disabled people. This article explores the issues raised by the application of the Disability Equality Duty to English schools. The remainder of the article then seeks to ‘map the territory’ for future research into the role that education might play in challenging disabling attitudes and building an inclusive society.  相似文献

What is the point of group discussion in mathematics?     

Celia Hoyles 《Educational Studies in Mathematics》1985,16(2):205-214

This paper sets out the implications of using pupil-pupil discussion within mathematics classrooms and describes the different ways that such discussion might promote mathematical understanding. It distinguishes the following aspects of a discussion: the organisation and articulation of one's own ideas for oneself; the elaboration of one's own ideas for communication to another; the dynamic feedback inherent in dialogue; and the creation of cognitive conflict and an awareness of the need for decentration. The paper then presents a framework within which discussion could most usefully take place, and the learning of the computing language, Logo, is presented as an example of a context which could satisfy the criteria suggested.  相似文献   

Carnival in the Curriculum     

Steve Herne  Celia Burgess‐Macey  Maggie Rogers 《The International Journal of Art & Design Education》2008,27(3):264-278

This article focuses on a carnival in the curriculum project designed to revitalise the arts in the experience of students in Higher Education preparing to become primary school teachers. It argues the relevance of a combined arts or trans‐disciplinary artform in the remit of a visual arts education journal and explores carnival as a complex, inclusive, multifaceted and multidimensional cultural practice with deep historical and social roots. It locates carnival within theory and the debate about the arts in schools in the UK from the early 1980s. Drawing on the analysis of interviews with students and teachers in carnival project schools, issues and themes such as student involvement, creativity, artists in schools, and cross‐curricular learning are explored, concluding that carnival in the curriculum provides an opportunity for agency within the regulated official curriculum.  相似文献   

Pharmacist perception and use of UpToDate?     

Katie L. Wallace  Robert D. Beckett  Amy Heck Sheehan 《Journal of the Medical Library Association》2014,102(4):296-300

A cross-sectional survey of a convenience sample of 1,199 pharmacists was conducted to describe pharmacists'' use and perception of UpToDate®. Of 472 (39%) respondents, 217 (46%) reported using UpToDate. Most respondents who used or had heard of UpToDate indicated willingness to change a treatment plan based on UpToDate recommendations (77%). Many believed that UpToDate is updated weekly (31%) or monthly (49%) and that all articles undergo external peer review (51%). In conclusion, the majority of respondents reported that they would adjust drug therapy based on UpToDate recommendations; however, many pharmacists may hold misconceptions regarding the updating and peer-review processes.  相似文献
