The development and application of a specialised word list: the case of Fabrication     

Averil Coxhead  Emma McLaughlin  Aleeshea Reid 《Journal of Vocational Education & Training》2019,71(2):175-200

Learners in the trades are faced with learning a large amount of technical vocabulary along with the content of their field, but they do not tend to encounter this language outside their courses of study. This technical vocabulary is a core element in their developing knowledge of their trade and their learner identity. This article focuses first on identifying technical vocabulary in Fabrication using specialised written and spoken corpora, and through extensive checking with experts in the field as well as reference sources. A technical word list of 1079 types was developed, along with a list of common abbreviations and their meanings and a list of proper nouns. The technical word list covers over 30% of the vocabulary in the written Fabrication corpus and just over 9% of the spoken Fabrication corpus. The second part of the article discusses this vocabulary in light of the concept of vocational thresholds and provides suggestions for incorporating the word list into pedagogy, including an apprenticeship approach in which a focus on literacy/literacy acquisition is embedded into content teaching. Suggestions for future research are also included.  相似文献   

Environmental literacy of youth movement members – is environmentalism a component of their social activism?     

Daphne Goldman  Sara Pe’er  Bela Yavetz 《Environmental Education Research》2017,23(4):486-514

Youth-movements in Israel are non-formal organizations that educate for social and political involvement and provide a broad platform for youth involvement in the community. This study explored the question: does the social activism of adolescents who both elect for membership in youth movements and a leadership role of instructing younger members also reflect itself in environmentalism? In a survey of 1496 young instructors drawn from 15 official youth movements, findings on environmental literacy variables show youth are only generally knowledgeable about environmental problems; express ‘technical-optimism’ which leads them to limited concern for the environment; show limited recognition of the importance of environmental education, and show limited acknowledgment of the necessity for changes in personal consumerism. Findings also show that environmental issues are not on their mind since they are not a conversation topic with peers or family. Nonetheless, these youth also demonstrate strong self-efficacy to effect change; view themselves as role models for younger members; and express willingness to include environmentally-supportive activities within regular youth movement activities. Their valuing of nature also provides a foundation for building other environmental values. Further analysis shows how these findings can contribute theoretical and practical tools for incorporating sustainability within the youth movement framework, and help realize their potential for promoting sustainability in society.  相似文献   

Embedding the literacy strategy: snapshots of change   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Ros Fisher 《Literacy》2004,38(3):134-140

This paper considers the government's initiative to change the teaching of literacy in primary schools in England. It draws on evidence from a one‐year ESRC‐funded project that observed teaching in the first year of the NLS and a two‐year follow‐up study that revisited and re‐interviewed several of the teachers from the original study. It proposes that, although substantial changes have been made to the organisation and procedures of literacy teaching, deeper pedagogical change is less obvious in some classrooms. It further argues that for teachers to have the freedom to develop their pedagogy, the climate of coercion and outcome‐led education must change.  相似文献

国内外职前教师信息化教学能力培养现状研究     

王丹  李鑫  董子宜 《教育技术导刊》2019,18(8):220-224

运用文献分析法探究国内外职前教师信息化教学能力培养现状与需求,利用CiteSpace知识图谱对国内外关于职前教师信息化教学能力培养研究热点、趋势与不足进行对比分析。研究结果发现,职前教师信息化教学能力培养在课程设置、技术素养培养与培养途径等方面均存在不足,且目前国内外关于职前教师信息化教学能力培养研究尚未形成核心作者群与机构群,研究缺乏核心凝聚力。根据关键词共现网络分析结果还发现,“教学内容知识”、“信念”、“TPACK”等内容是目前该领域研究热点,在此基础上,国外研究更加关注职前教师的心理体验,如信念、态度和认知能力等。最后预测相关研究发展趋势,并提出提升职前教师信息化教学能力的建议。  相似文献   

西北民族地区义务教育教师多元文化素养现状调查     

李虎林  周瑞 《教育文化论坛》2020,12(2):53-59

对西北民族地区6个县级行政区605名义务教育教师进行调查后发现:教师的多元文化素养整体上处于中等水平,还有较大提升空间;教师的多元文化态度水平较高,但多元文化知识和能力有所不足;教师的多元文化素养在城乡、职称、是否担任班主任、所学专业、民族背景等方面均存在一定差异。据分析,民族之间的交往交流交融和教师的教育经历与学习状况是导致上述差异的重要原因。基于此,可采取以下措施提升民族地区教师的多元文化素养:创造民族之间实质性接触机会,促进跨文化互动与交往;在教师教育中体现多元文化素养的培养;深化对不同民族学生学习特点和教学的研究;鼓励教师进行民族文化教育资源和校本课程的开发与利用。  相似文献

Digital play as a means to develop children’s literacy and power in the Swedish preschool     

Leif Marklund  Elza Dunkels 《Early Years: An International Journal of Research and Development》2016,36(3):289-304

Abstract

This paper presents different angles on the subject of digital play as a means to develop children’s literacy and power, using an online ethnographical study of Swedish preschool teachers’ discussions in informal online forums. Question posts (n = 239) were analysed using the Technological Pedagogical Knowledge framework and the Caring, Nurturing and Teaching framework, with the aim of understanding how teachers intended to support children’s literacy development with tablets. Literacy development can be understood as a social practice that needs to develop along with changes in society’s demands on citizens. The results presented indicate that school subject oriented skills are predominantly present in the mind-set of these preschool teachers. When digital play is increasingly used for pedagogical purposes in preschools, that also means that preschools have expanded their opportunities to work with children’s literacy development. For preschool teachers, it is important to discuss how literacy development can be supported in a contemporary media landscape.  相似文献   

The role of maternal mediation of writing to kindergartners in promoting literacy in school: A longitudinal perspective     

Aram  Dorit  Levin  Iris 《Reading and writing》2004,17(4):387-409

The current study follows up on Aram andLevin's (2001, Cognitive Development, 16, 831–852)analysis of the role of maternalwriting mediation among low SES Israelikindergartners. That study's main findingindicated that the quality of maternal writingmediation correlated concurrently withkindergartners' literacy skills aftercontrolling for socio-cultural measures. Thepresent study followed up the participants tothe second grade in school, and evaluated theirlevel of Spelling, Reading Comprehension, andLinguistic Knowledge two and a half years later. Theresults indicate that the children's literacymeasures in school were predicted by maternalwriting mediation in kindergarten beyond SESand the early literacy measures assessed in thekindergarten (Word Writing and LinguisticKnowledge). These results highlight thesignificance of early maternal writingmediation as a major factor in literacydevelopment.  相似文献
