‘Invisible’ teachers of literacy: collusion between siblings and teachers in creating classroom cultures     

Eve Gregory 《Literacy》2004,38(2):97-105

The promise to raise literacy standards significantly at age 11 in economically disadvantaged areas has been an important part of the present British Government's educational policy. Integral to this promise has been the introduction of official home/school ‘contracts’ or ‘agreements’, which oblige parents to engage in specific literacy activities with their children. However, evidence from a longitudinal study of family literacy practices in East London suggests that family and community members other than parents might play a crucial role in initiating young children into literacy. Siblings particularly have been found to be efficient ‘teachers’ of school literacy practices. In this paper, I investigate particularly ways in which an unspoken collusion takes place between teacher and older sibling revealed during ‘play school’ sessions in Bangladeshi British households in East London.  相似文献   

La Parte Chusca of a Pedagogical Here and Now: Oaxacan Teachers’ Heteroglossic Joking About State Repression and Educational Reform     

Stephen T. Sadlier 《Journal of Latinos & Education》2016,15(4):320-332

Faced with repression and reform, humor has become tactical for public school teachers in Oaxaca, Mexico, engaged in a decades-old movement that after 2006 involved intensified street- and school-based pedagogies. This piece explores how humor adds to a political project via mocking names, images, and dictates of elite leaders to bring a here and now to what is taken as inaccessible in the teachers’ political lives. Humor forms part of an (e)sc(h)atology in which critical practices are part eschatological, a call for definite transformation, and part scatological, embodied vulgarity. La parte chusca (the funny part), its (e)sc(h)atological contribution, angles toward critical literacies in Oaxaca and beyond.  相似文献   

Maternal mediation in book reading, home literacy environment, and children’s emergent literacy: a comparison between two social groups     

Ofra Korat  Pnina Klein  Ora Segal-Drori 《Reading and writing》2007,20(4):361-398

The researchers addressed two questions: (1) Does maternal reading mediation and family home literacy environment (HLE) relate to children’s emergent literacy (EL) level? and (2) Do the relationships among these variables differ as a function of socioeconomic strata (SES) level. A total of 94 5–6-year-old children, 47 from low SES (LSES) and 47 from high (HSES) families, and their mothers participated. Mother–child interactions while reading an unfamiliar book were videotaped and their verbal expressions were coded for extracting maternal mediation level. Children’s independent EL level was assessed prior to the interaction. Compared with the LSES group, HSES children showed higher EL levels and their homes had a richer literacy environment. Maternal mediation level differed by SES: LSES mothers paraphrased text more often; HSES mothers’ higher mediation level included a discussion of the written system and making connections beyond the text. In the HSES group, maternal mediation level and HLE related to children’s EL; no such relationships appeared in the LSES group. Results are discussed in terms of children’s socio-economic background and their reading experiences. Implications for researchers and educational practices about the relationships between children’s literacy development, SES, HLE, and parental mediation are discussed.  相似文献   

Parent question use during shared reading time: How does training affect question type and frequency?     

Jamie Zibulsky  Christine Casbar  Tamar Blanchard  Chelsea Morgan 《Psychology in the schools》2019,56(2):206-219

This study was designed to examine whether participation in a shared reading workshop alters the frequency with which parents ask their children questions during book reading sessions, particularly questions designed to strengthen component reading skills that they may not have known about before training. Participants in the reading workshop series (N = 57) were taught strategies for asking questions about story content and word structure to build children's language and literacy skills. Findings suggest that parents may be somewhat familiar with traditional dialogic reading strategies focused on story content and utilize them without instruction, whereas parents may be less knowledgeable about sound or print‐focused skills and do not employ strategies focused on word structure until instructed to do so. It is also notable that parents do not use all story content prompts equally. This information can be used by school psychologists to refine the messages educators share with parents about how to best support their children's reading development.  相似文献

功能词隐喻意义习得中的语境效应     

韩巍峰 《海外英语》2011,(8):251-254

隐喻是人类日常生活中必不可少的语言现象,也是语言学习(尤其是二语习得)中非常重要的一个方面。虽然已有研究表明上下文(co-text)对实词(lexical word)隐喻意义的习得有一定的作用,但关于语境效应对功能词(functional word)隐喻意义理解作用的研究却不多。该文通过理论研究,实验调查等方法就语境效应如何作用于对功能词隐喻意义的理解这一问题进行了调查。结果发现上下文中附加信息的增减,事件发生顺序的改变等因素对情态动词本体域与认识域之间的投射,并列连词对称及不对称用法,"if"的条件/让步用法等隐喻意义的理解产生影响。最后,该文为二语教师、二语学习者及语言测试机构提供了一些实践性的建议。  相似文献   

Health literacy and consumer health information     

Maria J. Grant PhD 《Health information and libraries journal》2023,40(1):1-2

The rigours of the past few years have demonstrated the importance of good health literacy levels with the imperative of being able to obtain and interpret information to maintain and improve one's health never more apparent. With this in mind, this issue is focused on consumer health information, the gender and population group differences that exist in information seeking behaviour, the challenges of understanding medical explanations and terminology, and existing criteria to assess and ultimately produce better consumer health information.  相似文献
