Researching educational policy and change in ‘new times’: using critical discourse analysis     

Sandra Taylor 《教育政策杂志》2013,28(4):433-451

A number of writers have drawn attention to the increasing importance of language in social life in ‘new times’ and Fairclough has referred to ‘discourse driven’ social change. These conditions have led to an increase in the use of various forms of discourse analysis in policy analysis. This paper explores the possibilities of using Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) in critical policy research in education, drawing on a larger research project which is investigating the equity implications of Education Queensland’s reform agenda. It is argued that, in the context of new times, CDA is of particular value in documenting multiple and competing discourses in policy texts, in highlighting marginalized and hybrid discourses, and in documenting discursive shifts in policy implementation processes. The last part of the paper discusses how such research might be used by policy activists inside and outside education department bureaucracies to further social democratic goals.  相似文献   

A Minority within a Minority? Social Justice for Traveller and Roma Children in ECEC     

Colette Murray 《European Journal of Education》2012,47(4):569-583

This article discusses recent policy developments in Europe regarding Roma and Traveller integration and Early Childhood Provision. After a long history of oppression, Roma issues have recently become prominent on the EU policy agenda. The article discusses how these relate to developments in other areas of policy: the European children's rights agenda and the recognition that early childhood education and care is a key policy tool to combat social exclusion. It gives background information on Roma and Travellers in Europe and discusses the consequences of subsuming the various communities under one umbrella term: Roma. The EU Commission is concerned with responses from Member States to the European Framework for National Roma Integration Strategies. The article argues that in order to address Roma children's experience from a holistic perspective, social justice and equality need to be key elements of early childhood education and care provision and training. The European policy developments that frame the article are examined from a local vantage point: the experiences of Traveller and Roma children in Ireland and the Irish Preschool Education Initiative for Children from Minority Communities.  相似文献   

It Ain’t What You Say...     

John Yandell 《Changing English: An International Journal of English Teaching》2013,20(4):341-350

This essay takes as its starting-point the recent announcement that GCSE English, the high-stakes test taken by 16-year-olds in England, will no longer include the assessment of speaking and listening. It attempts to place this decision, and other recent policy interventions that will have an impact on how talk in the classroom is conceptualised and valued, in a longer history of schooling, attitudes to spoken English and the notion of a spoken standard. The essay then explores, through an account of an observed GCSE English lesson, something of the complexities involved in taking talk, and the assessment of talk, seriously.  相似文献   

难以逃离的瘫痪——从空间批评视角解读乔伊斯的《阿拉比》   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

琚磊 《廊坊师范学院学报》2010,26(3):29-31

空间批评关注空间的社会文化等属性,文本中的空间是一种蕴含多维意义的指涉系统。乔伊斯在其短篇小说《阿拉比》中分别从景观空间、社会空间和个体空间三个角度呈现精神瘫痪的都柏林。景观空间反映出都柏林社会的沉闷压抑、毫无生气、令人窒息;社会空间为情节提供了发展的广度;个人空间则折射出主人公压抑的心情。这三种空间成为小说中的一种指涉系统,成功地展现了都柏林这座瘫痪中心的全景。  相似文献   

A study on the inclusion of deafblind young people in mainstream schools: key findings and implications for research and practice     

Leda Kamenopoulou 《British Journal of Special Education》2012,39(3):137-145

This article, written by Leda Kamenopoulou of Roehampton University, reports a research project on deafblindness and inclusion in education. Deafblindness is a rare and therefore significantly under‐explored disability. Even less systematic research has focused on deafblind young people enrolled in mainstream schools. The study presented here used a multiple case study and mixed methods design to explore the social inclusion and participation of four deafblind pupils in mainstream placements. Interviews were conducted with the pupils, their parents and selected teachers regarding their peer interactions and relationships. Semi‐structured observations of peer interactions during school breaks were also conducted to complement interview data, but due to space constraints, these are not discussed here. Findings from the interviews suggest that the young people were socially present in their schools, but all faced certain issues in terms of being fully included. Both barriers to and facilitators of social inclusion and participation are discussed with reference to implications for research and practice.  相似文献

重蹈覆辙还是自我突破——新媒体时代电视媒体的选择     

谢耘耕  倪握瑜 《新闻界》2007,(3):7-9

在新媒体技术层出不穷的今天,传统电视媒体面临着严峻挑战。本文通过分析报纸媒体在文字新闻类网站发展初期的决策失误,探讨新媒体时代传统电视媒体的应对策略。提出传统电视要将新媒体放在与传统媒体同等重要的地位上,根据新媒体的产业性质,采取相应的运营模式,自发地进行平台转移,将新旧媒体竞争从传媒集团与业外资本的外部竞争,转化为集团内部事业部之间的竞争,从而掌握主动权,实现电视传媒的自我突破。  相似文献   

媒体文化视野中的网络游戏     

李兴亮  付蓉 《新闻界》2007,(3):45-46,30

网络游戏是二十世纪核心文化技术“电子影像”的产物,是信息化文明的标志之一。和电视、电影一样,网络游戏本身作为一种独立的媒体文化形式而存在。鉴于网络游戏在文化、经济、教育等领域所产生的持久而深远的影响,对其研究、管理和开发亟待进一步加强。  相似文献   

现代传媒对当代大学生成长影响调查报告   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

陈尚荣  叶海  苏红竟 《新闻界》2007,(3):91-93

现代传媒对当代大学生究竟产生了哪些影响?本文通过对在宁几所高校所做的一次抽样调查发现网络对大学生的成长影响很大,报纸、电视、杂志次之,而广播的影响相对较小。大学生接触媒介存在着年级和性别差异,高年级学生和男生更倾向于使用网络;而低年级学生在报纸、杂志、网络三方面所占比例均等,女生更喜欢接触电视、广播。通过调查我们发现高校媒介的利用上还存在着电视的覆盖率相当低、广播的利用度太差、校报达不到预期的目标、在校上网受限、高校间缺乏交流等问题。  相似文献
