Analysis of the trajectories of Science graduates: applying Bourdieu and Sen     

Philippe Lemistre 《British Journal of Sociology of Education》2019,40(7):953-969

Abstract

We bring together the theories of Bourdieu and Sen in order to understand the processes that influence the study paths chosen by young people with a general degree from a science university in France. The weighting of economic and cultural capital within study options taken in secondary education and during the premier cycle (the first three years of tertiary education) helps characterise elements of students’ trajectories which either stymie or reinforce a nonetheless dominant reproduction.  相似文献   

Who's in the mirror? Self-other discrimination in specular images by four- and nine-month-old infants     

Rochat P  Striano T 《Child development》2002,73(1):35-46

This research investigated the early determinants of self-other discrimination in infancy. Ninety-six 4- and 9-month-old infants were placed facing a live image either of themselves or of another person (experimenter) mimicking them. The specular image was either contingent (on-line), or contingent with a 2-s delay. After a first 1-min presentation, the video image of either the self or the other was suddenly frozen for 1 min (still-face episode). This was followed by a last minute of live presentation. From 4 months of age, infants appeared to perceive and act differentially when facing the specular image of themselves or the mimicking other. In general, infants tended to smile more, look more, and have more protracted first-look duration toward the mimicking other compared with the self. Developmentally, 9-month-olds showed markedly more social initiatives toward the mimicking other compared with the self during the still-face episode. In all, these results indicate that infants develop self-other discrimination in specular images long before mirror self-recognition, which is typically reported by the second year. Discrimination of the self from other is interpreted as a precursory ability and a perceptual foundation of later conceptual self development.  相似文献   

New Insights on Picasso’s Blue Period Painting La famille Soler     

Catherine Defeyt  Philippe Walter  Hélène Rousselière  Peter Vandenabeele  Bart Vekemans  Louise Samain 《文物保护研究》2018,63(1):24-35

The study of La Famille Soler using non-invasive imaging, molecular, structural, and elemental analysis allowed the re-examination of changes of the work. Considered as the earliest of Picasso’s versions of Le déjeuner sur l’herbe by E. Manet, evidence suggests that an underlying landscape painted by Vidal in 1903 also referred to Manet’s masterpiece. On the other hand, new results suggest that the cubist sketch undertaken by Picasso in 1912, prior to the current blue background, could be an uncompleted transformation of Vidal’s landscape into synthetic cubism. Through study the main pigments used in the underlying compositions were successfully identified.  相似文献   

From Competence in the Curriculum to Competence in Action     

Philippe Jonnaert  Domenico Masciotra  Johanne Barrette  Denise Morel  Yaya Mane 《Prospects》2007,37(2):187-203

The article begins by drawing a distinction between the concepts of “curriculum” and “programme of study”, and goes on to show that curriculum reform involves much more than simply rewriting programmes of study. The reforms that are presently sweeping across education systems throughout the world qualify, in many cases, as true paradigm revolutions, given the magnitude of the transition from an objectives-based to a competency-based pedagogy. The authors discuss the complex nature of a situated approach to competence by exploring the theoretical foundations of a number of contemporary perspectives: situated action/cognition, distributed cognition/intelligence, collective intelligence and enaction. The value of a situated approach to competence is that it goes beyond an objectives-based pedagogy, while at the same time incorporating the best of what it has to offer.

Contribution of temporal processing skills to reading comprehension in 8-year-olds: evidence for a mediation effect of phonological awareness     

Malenfant N  Grondin S  Boivin M  Forget-Dubois N  Robaey P  Dionne G 《Child development》2012,83(4):1332-1346

This study tested whether the association between temporal processing (TP) and reading is mediated by phonological awareness (PA) in a normative sample of 615 eight-year-olds. TP was measured with auditory and bimodal (visual-auditory) temporal order judgment tasks and PA with a phoneme deletion task. PA partially mediated the association between both auditory and bimodal TP and reading, above nonverbal abilities, vocabulary, and processing speed. PA explained a larger proportion of the association between auditory TP and reading (56% vs. 39% for bimodal TP), and most of the association between bimodal TP and reading was direct. This finding is consistent with a dual-phonological and visual-pathway model of the association between TP and reading in normative reading skills.  相似文献   

High school grades and university performance: A case study     

Philippe Cyrenne  Alan Chan 《Economics of Education Review》2012

A critical issue facing a number of colleges and universities is how to allocate first year places to incoming students. The decision to admit students is often based on a number of factors, but a key statistic is a student's high school grades. This paper reports on a case study of the subsequent performance at the University of Winnipeg of high school students from 84 Manitoba high schools. By tracking the university performance of students admitted for the years 1997–2002, we are able to estimate the likelihood of success of subsequent students based on their characteristics as well as their high school grades. In doing so, we use a number of alternative estimators including a Least Squares Dummy Variable Model and a Hierarchical Linear Model. The methodology should be of interest to admissions officers at other universities as an input into estimating the subsequent performance of first year students.  相似文献   

Ethnography's troubles and the reproduction of academic habitus     

Philippe Bourgois 《International journal of qualitative studies in education》2013,26(4):417-420

In this article, we explore the methodological possibilities of dual observation and ‘inter‐reflexive’ interpretation as we have experienced this in a longitudinal ethnographic case study of music teaching and learning in an English Cathedral Choir School. Our intent here is to understand the ways in which our particular historical, social and cultural perspectives lead us to partial yet complementary sensings, seeings, hearings and feelings in this setting, and the ramifications of this for the interpretations we bring to observational data, and the subsequent development of interpretive narrative accounts. Through an analysis of our respective narrative accounts of our first observational encounter in the research setting, and subsequent ‘inter‐reflexive’ interpretation, we seek to interrogate the ways in which a plausible, credible and believable narrative can be developed through the separate and joint analyses of storied reflexive observation.  相似文献   

De las diferencias culturales a las desigualdades escolares: la evaluación y la norma en una enseñanza indiferenciada     

Philippe Perrenoud 《Infancia y Aprendizaje》2013,36(14):19-50

RESUMEN

En el sistema educativo actual, la organización pedagógica es la enseñanza indiferenciada ligada a una evaluación comparativa. El autor describe los mecanismos por los cuales un sistema como éste convierte las diferencias culturales en diferencias escolares. Se analiza la correlación existente entre las desigualdades de formación y el origen social; el hecho de que los mismos programas educativos sean diferentes en unas escuelas (calificación del profesorado, composición del alumnado…) que en otras; la desigualdad de trato en la acción pedagógica y en la evaluación; la desigualdad social ante la evaluación, y la falta de ajuste de la acción pedagógica a las características individuales. En la evaluación está la base de la génesis de las desigualdades de aprendizaje y éxito.  相似文献   

The effect of an intervention to improve newly qualified teachers’ interpersonal style,students motivation and psychological need satisfaction in sport-based physical education   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Damien Tessier  Philippe Sarrazin  Nikos Ntoumanis 《Contemporary educational psychology》2010

Recent developments in self-determination theory research in the educational setting (e.g., Reeve, Deci, & Ryan, 2004), suggest that teachers’ interpersonal style should be considered as consisting of three dimensions: autonomy support, structure and interpersonal involvement. Based on this theoretical proposition, the purpose of the present study was to test the effects of a training program for three physical education newly qualified teachers on the aforementioned teachers’ overt behaviors and students’ psychological needs satisfaction, self-determined motivation and engagement in sport-based physical education. After a baseline period of four lessons, the teachers attended an informational session on adaptive student motivation and how to support it. The training program also included individualized guidance during the last four lessons of the cycle. Results revealed that from pre- to post-intervention: (1) teachers managed to improve their teaching style in terms of all three dimensions, and (2) students were receptive to these changes, as shown by increases in their reported need satisfaction, self-determined motivation and engagement in the class.  相似文献   

The influence of impact location and angle on the dynamic impact response of a Hybrid III headform     

Evan Stuart Walsh  Philippe Rousseau  Thomas Blaine Hoshizaki 《Sports Engineering》2011,13(3):135-143

To properly assess sports helmet performance, it is important to select impact conditions that yield high peak linear or angular accelerations. This was done by measuring the kinematic response of a Hybrid III headform when impacted with a modified Wayne State University linear impactor with special consideration for impact locations and angles. The 20 impact conditions (five locations and four angles) were then compared to published thresholds to identify the conditions, which were linked to an increased risk of head injury. These conditions were the following: 1A (linear 121.3g; angular 3.84 krad s⁻²), 2A (linear 102.1g; angular 9.28 krad s⁻²), 2C (linear 94.4g; angular 8.67 krad s⁻²), 3A (linear 132.8g; angular 9.38 krad s⁻²), 4A (linear 92.8g; angular 11.49 krad s⁻²), 4D (linear 113.3g; angular 12.86 krad s⁻²), 5A (linear 116.9g; angular 9.01 krad s⁻²) and 5D (linear 87.5g; angular 8.81 krad s⁻²). The results presented in this study were specific to the test rig used as well as the tested conditions; however, it is believed that a test protocol using the above impact conditions could identify the ability of sports helmets to reduce risk of head injuries.  相似文献
