Development of deaf identity: an ethnographic study     

McIlroy G  Storbeck C 《Journal of deaf studies and deaf education》2011,16(4):494-511

This ethnographic study explores the identity development of 9 deaf participants through the narratives of their educational experiences in either mainstream or special schools for the Deaf. This exploration goes beyond a binary conceptualization of deaf identity that allows for only the medical and social models and proposes a bicultural "dialogue model." This postmodern theoretical framework is used to examine the diversity of identities of deaf learners. The inclusion of the researcher's own fluid cross-cultural identity as a bicultural "DeaF" participant in this study provides an auto-ethnographic gateway into exploring the lives of other deaf, Deaf, or bicultural DeaF persons. The findings suggest that deaf identity is not a static concept but a complex ongoing quest for belonging, a quest that is bound up with the acceptance of being deaf while "finding one's voice" in a hearing-dominant society. Through the use of dialogue and narrative tools, the study challenges educators, parents, and researchers to broaden their understanding of how deaf identity, and the dignity associated with being a deaf person is constructed.  相似文献   

广州市小学六年级学生教育补习情况研究——基于学生家长的视角     

武文浩  陈芳  马艾斯 《上海教育科研》2011,(7)

本文通过对广州市初中一年级学生家长的问卷调查,了解学生在六年级时参加教育补习的情况.结果发现,班级排名中等以上的学生参加补习的比例更大;家长让班级排名靠前的学生参加补习是为了增加他们的竞争优势,因而这些学生更倾向于选择竞赛类科目补习;班级排名、家长动机和补习费用是影响家长对教育补习效果主观评价的重要因素;对于班级排名靠前的学生而言,教育补习并不会对他们的排名产生明显的影响.  相似文献   

用形象化的手段教学小学数学     

陈芳 《小学阅读指南(3-6年级)》2011,(11):43-43

小学生的思维是以形象思维为主要形式,形象思维所反映的对象是事物的形象,思维形式是意象、直感、想象等形象性的观念,其表达的工具和手段是能为感官所感知的图形、图象、图式和形象性的符号。随着年龄的增长,知识的积累,到了中高年级形象思维逐步减少,抽象逻辑思维的成分逐步加大,但即使这样,五、六年级的学生仍然不能完全脱离形象化思维。  相似文献   

典型探究性化学实验问题     

陈芳 《广东教育》2007,(6):28-30

化学是一门以实验为基础的科学,2007年广东高考实验内容约占30分左右,第一部分选择题主要考查化学常用实验仪器的主要用途和使用方法,化学实验的基本操作、化学安全常识,第二部分主要考查考生对实验原理、实验设计、实验操作和实验评价等较高层次的实验知识与技能的综合应用。探究性实验是中学化学课程改革的一类与研究性学习相适应的试题,其最大的特点在于对问题解答的探究性和答案的开放性。考生对实验部分失分最多的是综合实验设计及评价,尤以探究性实验失分率最高。  相似文献   

在希望的田野上——莱州市农村教育综合改革纪实     

李培刚  蔡生光  姜瑞云  陈芳耀  原学智 《山东教育》1996,(23)

我国是一个人口多、耕地少、资源相对不足的农业大国。要推动传统农业向高产、优质、高效农业发展,向农业现代化迈进,从根本上讲,必须依靠科技进步和提高劳动者素质。而要把科学技术转化为生产力,不依靠教育不行。 莱州市正是从这一战略高度出发,扎扎实实地进行农村教育综合改革,初步探索出一条适合当地经济建设和社会发展的农村教育的新路子。他们的经验,值得借鉴。  相似文献   

Access to postsecondary education through sign language interpreting   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Marschark M  Sapere P  Convertino C  Seewagen R 《Journal of deaf studies and deaf education》2005,10(1):38-50

Despite the importance of sign language interpreting for many deaf students, there is surprisingly little research concerning its effectiveness in the classroom. The limited research in this area is reviewed, and a new study is presented that included 23 interpreters, 105 deaf students, and 22 hearing students. Students saw two interpreted university-level lectures, each preceded by a test of prior content knowledge and followed by a post-lecture assessment of learning. A variety of demographic and qualitative data also were collected. Variables of primary interest included the effects of a match or mismatch between student interpreting preferences (interpreting vs. transliteration) and the actual mode of interpreting, student-interpreter familiarity, and interpreter experience. Results clarify previous contradictory findings concerning the importance of student interpreting preferences and extend earlier studies indicating that deaf students acquire less than hearing peers from interpreted college-level lectures. Issues relating to access and success in integrated academic settings are discussed as they relate to relations among student characteristics, interpreter characteristics, and educational settings.  相似文献   

Postpartum depression, marital dysfunction, and infant outcome: a longitudinal study          下载免费PDF全文

Roux G  Anderson C  Roan C 《The Journal of perinatal education》2002,11(4):25-36

This longitudinal study explores the relationship of postpartum depression (PPD) and marital dysfunction on infant outcomes from birth to 2 1/2 years of age among middle-class, postpartum women. Participants were recruited during the prenatal period. Twelve mothers completed the study throughout a 2 1/2-year period. Questionnaires, semistructured interviews, and observations were used to collect data. Content analysis of the interviews (Morse & Field, 1995) was conducted and thematic patterns were identified. Clinical PPD and marital dysfunction (defined as little or no support or closeness, or verbal, emotional or physical abuse) characterized nearly one in three mothers. Four themes describing the women's postpartum progression were identified: stress, isolation, resentment, and eventual adjustment by creating a new normal. No major developmental delays or behavioral problems were found among the infants. Eight of the 12 mothers who were initially identified as breastfeeding nursed their infants for 6-18 months. Regardless of financial and educational advantages, mothers in the study experienced depression and marital dysfunction. These findings support other studies that confirm the lack of association of PPD with social class or marital status. Childbirth educators and other health care professionals are encouraged to continue providing expectant families with anticipatory education and community resources in order to increase awareness of mental health and marital risks during the postpartum transition.  相似文献

Parameters in television captioning for deaf and hard-of-hearing adults: effects of caption rate versus text reduction on comprehension     

Burnham D  Leigh G  Noble W  Jones C  Tyler M  Grebennikov L  Varley A 《Journal of deaf studies and deaf education》2008,13(3):391-404

Caption rate and text reduction are factors that appear to affect the comprehension of captions by people who are deaf or hard of hearing. These 2 factors are confounded in everyday captioning; rate (in words per minute) is slowed by text reduction. In this study, caption rate and text reduction were manipulated independently in 2 experiments to assess any differential effects and possible benefits for comprehension by deaf and hard-of-hearing adults. Volunteers for the study included adults with a range of reading levels, self-reported hearing status, and different communication and language preferences. Results indicate that caption rate (at 130, 180, 230 words per minute) and text reduction (at 84%, 92%, and 100% original text) have different effects for different adult users, depending on hearing status, age, and reading level. In particular, reading level emerges as a dominant factor: more proficient readers show better comprehension than poor readers and are better able to benefit from caption rate and, to some extent, text reduction modifications.  相似文献
