Arts councils,policy-making and “the local”     

Victoria Durrer  Abigail Gilmore 《Cultural Trends》2019,28(4):317-331

ABSTRACT

In the British Isles, national policies for the arts are primarily viewed as the responsibility of arts councils with statutory duties to distribute state funding that meet the requirements of both “arms-length” principles and national strategic frameworks. This paper explores the tensions between policy making for the nation-state and for “the local” through comparative research on the arts councils (and equivalent bodies) in Scotland, England and Northern Ireland. Drawing on in-depth qualitative interviews with senior representatives from these organisations, it explores their notions of, responsibilities to and affiliations with “the local”. Findings suggest that despite their different models and relationships to the nation-state, and the disparities in the scale of investment, these national policy bodies commonly rely on networked governance to facilitate their relationship to “the local” which risks reproducing national interests, limiting the localised agency of place-based approaches and contributing to a culture of competition within cultural policy.  相似文献   

Special educational needs and inclusion,moving forward but standing still? A critical reframing of some key issues     

Alan Hodkinson 《British Journal of Special Education》2020,47(3):308-328

This article draws together my thinking in relation to special educational needs and inclusion that have dominated my practice. The article, through the concept of embodiment, revisits, reviews and reframes the key issues of the construction of special educational needs, inclusion and the ideology that binds them together. Through this exploration, I argue we often seem to move forward with policy while in reality standing still in ensuring the ‘success’ of all of our pupils. By critiquing and reframing taken‐for‐granted assumptions and the sacred words ‘success’ and ‘achievement’, this article maps out the future directions of inclusive education. It concludes with a reflection on my first days as a ‘teacher of special educational needs’ and my work to support Kenny, a student with cerebral palsy. This personal reflection maps out a different form of educational success that perhaps could provide a forward momentum to develop more successful inclusive education policy and practice.  相似文献   

Professional mobilities in the creative industries: The role of “place” for young people aspiring for a creative career     

Caitriona Noonan 《Cultural Trends》2015,24(4):299-309

Within creative industries policy, two themes have been situated as central to the needs of the creative economy: the economic importance of place and the role of education in delivering a better-equipped workforce. However, these themes have rarely overlapped in either policy thinking or academic research, and so this article focuses on the relationship between place, education and professional aspirations for young people. Using the findings from qualitative interviews with media studies students within higher education (HE), this article analyses how the perceived attributes of some locations may provide industry credibility and the promise of enhanced professional mobility. It examines the tangible and symbolic value of place within young people's career development in the creative industries. The findings highlight how the links between place and education can influence the professional process, and how place shapes young people's perceptions of and opportunities for work in the creative industries. Finally, this research emphasises how current theories on creative industries policy and HE provision need to be extended to take greater account of the ways in which the attributes of localities can be used as a catalyst for individual professionalism amongst young people, and the ways in which certain places (mainly rural) may be disadvantaged in the current policy trajectory.  相似文献   

表现主义论争：起因、内容及其思考     

张宪军 《海外英语》2015,(6)

表现主义作为德国现代主义文艺思潮，在美术、文学、电影、音乐和建筑等领域都取得了明显的成就，但在表现主义文艺思潮沉寂之后的1937—1938年间的关于这场文艺运动的论争再次将人们的视线引向表现主义，这场论争有一定的偏向性，但论争本身也使人们加深了对表现主义的理解，该文拟对这场论证的缘起和内容进行说明，并指出这场论争的意义。  相似文献

Change management and the SENCo role: developing key performance indicators in the strategic development of inclusivity     

Liz Done  Mike Murphy  Mia Watt 《Support for Learning》2016,31(4):281-295

This article follows an earlier publication highlighting the changing role of special educational needs co‐ordinators (SENCos) in England. SENCos are now required to manage change strategically and deliver inclusive school cultures. School‐based action research undertaken by a teacher studying for the postgraduate National Award for SEN Co‐ordination (NASENCO) is featured in the article; a strategic review of resource allocation increased the availability and quality of interventions for students with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The commentary which frames the study acknowledges that many SENCos are not yet members of a senior school management team (SMT) despite their mandated strategic whole‐school remit. Featuring the process through which one SENCo has strived to enhance SEND provision and develop context‐specific key performance indicators brings official guidance on the SENCo's role in strategic change management into sharp focus, raising questions that should concern both SMTs and non‐SMT SENCos.  相似文献

摘要：采用文献和比较分析等研究方法，对国外城市公共体育场馆服务大众体育经验及对我国的借鉴进行了研究。研究认为：法国的巴黎、英国的伦敦、日本的东京、新加坡和美国的纽约城市公共体育场馆在服务大众体育发展的过程中，不断探索与创新出成功的发展模式，是国外城市公共体育场馆服务大众体育发展较为成功的典型案例。其中在注重奥运体育场馆赛后服务大众体育的发展和城市公共体育场馆基础设施生态化建设及城市公共体育场馆建设向社区方向发展的经验，对我国城市公共体育场馆服务于全民健身的开展是相当有助益的。据此，根据我国城市公共体育场馆建设的特殊国情，在借鉴国外城市公共体育场馆服务大众体育发展成功经验的基础上，探索出适合我国城市公共体育场馆服务全民健身发展的路径，即，创新大型体育赛事场馆赛后利用多功能综合运行模式，科学规划城市公共体育场馆建设的布局，加大对城市公共体育场馆建设服务全民健身开展的财政扶持力度，构建城市公共体育场馆服务全民健身开展的多功能运行模式和城市公共体育场馆服务全民健身评价指标体系发展等，为我国城市公共体育场馆建设促进全民健身公共服务体系的构建提供理论依据。  相似文献   

Questioning the no-touch discourse in physical education from a children's rights perspective     

Marie Öhman  Ann Quennerstedt 《Sport, Education and Society》2017,22(3):305-320

In this paper we question the rationality of ‘no-touch policies’ and offer an alternative approach to the matter of physical contact between teachers and students in the context of physical education (PE) in schools. Earlier research has drawn attention to how a discourse of child protection is starting to affect how physical contact is viewed in PE practice. The avoidance of intergenerational touch is increasingly justified by referring to the children's rights agenda. Here, arguments for ‘no-touching’ are linked to children's right to be protected from harm. In the paper we explore a children's rights-based viewpoint that supports the use of and need for physical contact in PE teaching by developing theoretical and practice-based arguments. An alternative children's rights perspective, based on rights theorising, is used to formulate the theoretical argument. Interviews with 16 PE teachers about their experiences of physical contact in their pedagogical work form the practice-based arguments. The two arguments provide a way of looking at intergenerational touch in education from the vantage point of children's human right to develop to their full potential, which can support a need for physical touch in pedagogical situations.  相似文献
