Neoliberalism as exception: the New High-Quality School project in Shanghai     

Charlene Tan 《Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education》2019,40(4):443-457

ABSTRACT

Drawing upon Aihwa Ong’s concept of ‘neoliberalism as exception’, this paper explores how the education authority in Shanghai capitalises on neoliberal knowledge, techniques and logics to address local challenges. Through the creation of ‘new high-quality schools’ that is accompanied by a new assessment system, the authority hopes to persuade parents to choose non-elite schools instead of prestigious schools that excel in academic performance. The neoliberal strategy of school choice is supported by the policy of school autonomy for educators to go beyond test scores to promote holistic development in students. The paper underlines the indigenisation of neoliberalism through policy dynamics where multiple educational stakeholders interact with and mutually influence one another. By highlighting ‘neoliberalism with Chinese characteristics’ in Shanghai, this study demonstrates how neoliberalism coexists with state forms, cultural norms and social practices in a particular locality.  相似文献   

Using texting to nudge urban public school students to and through college     

Ryan Yeung  Phuong Nguyen-Hoang 《Journal of Research on Technology in Education》2020,52(1):113-127

Abstract

This study investigates how a network of New York City public schools use texting to increase enrollment and persistence in college. Text messages include tips and reminders to fill out the Free Application for Federal Student Aid as well as college tips. Our multiple regression results suggest that although when the texting began did not appear to matter, the texting program increased enrollment and persistence in college. In addition, response rates were positively associated with enrollment and persistence. Finally, we find that the content of the messages themselves as well as individual characteristics affected response rates.  相似文献

Angry Anglos and aspirational Asians: everyday multiculturalism in the selective school system in Sydney     

Christina Ho 《Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education》2019,40(4):514-529

ABSTRACT

‘Asian whiz kids’ perfect test scores.’ ‘Selective schools and tiger parents.’ These types of headlines highlight the increased visibility of academically successful students from Asian migrant backgrounds, in Australia and other Western countries. They also point to anxiety about the perceived aggressive ‘tiger’ parenting often associated with Asian academic success. This paper focuses on the forms of everyday multiculturalism found in and around high-performing selective schools and classes in Sydney, Australia, almost all of which are dominated by Asian-Australian students. Drawing on interviews with parents and students from Anglo- and Asian-Australian backgrounds, it documents the different positionalities adopted by participants within these culturally diverse settings, including anger, aspiration and cosmopolitanism. This potentially volatile combination of approaches to diversity reveals some of the social consequences of neoliberal migration and education policies.  相似文献   

Exploring the social inclusion of deaf young people in mainstream schools,using their lived experience     

Suzanne Edmondson  Julia Howe 《Educational Psychology in Practice》2019,35(2):216-228

Research suggests that children with hearing loss face a number of difficulties in the education system, including socially. Although there has been much research with the severe to profound deaf population there has been little research into the life experiences of children with moderate hearing loss who attend mainstream secondary schools. This research sought to examine the experiences of social inclusion for five young people with moderate hearing loss. Data were gathered through semi-structured interviews in the young person’s school setting and were analysed using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA). Although each participant had distinctive experiences, there were a number of common themes that emerged indicating the factors that support social inclusion and those which create barriers for deaf children in schools. Implications for educational psychologists are considered and the limitations of the research are outlined.  相似文献   

‘Make money,get money’: how two autonomous schools have commercialised their services     

Jessica Holloway  Amanda Keddie 《Discourse: Studies in the Cultural Politics of Education》2019,40(6):889-901

ABSTRACT

Using the stories of two autonomous public schools in Australia, this paper demonstrates how commercialisation can simultaneously position schools as both consumer and for-profit producer. Drawing on Foucault's articulation of discourse as that which constitutes and makes available what is possible to be said, done and imagined, the paper illustrates how the current marketised articulation of education is allowing for new possibilities of commercialisation in schools. Together these stories demonstrate that there are creative ways that these schools have embraced their autonomy, while relying on market solutions to acquire the resources they deem necessary for their students and their communities. However, it also shows how these resources and the attainment for them are inextricably constituted by the market orientation of education more broadly and how this presents potential dangers for what schools may be and become as a result.  相似文献   

三代领导论代表中国先进文化的前进方向     

刘福江  周辉湘 《衡阳师范学院学报》2003,24(4):29-32

以毛泽东为核心的党的第一代领导集体高度重视文化建设，提出了建立无产阶级领导的人民大众的反帝反封建的新民主主义文化的思想。邓小平继承、发展和丰富了马克思主义毛泽东思想的文化思想，提出了“两手抓、两手都要硬”、培养“四有”新人等重要思想，将社会主义文化建设概括为社会主义精神文明建设，使其理论体系跃上一个新的台阶。江泽民同志关于我们党代表中国先进文化的前进方向的重要论断，为新时期的文化建设进一步指明了方向；并将它与其它两个“代表”连在一起并列提出，体现了与时俱进的马克思主义理论品质。  相似文献
