Conclusions Educationists in Europe have an established tradition of exploring educational disadvantage from a socio-cultural perspective,
as indicated by the focus on social justice in education. Their concerns have been with relatively small-scale phenomena:
the context in which particular disadvantaged groups are educated, leading to specific recommendations for local areas. Policy-makers,
in contrast, are concerned with combating social exclusion at the national or Europe-wide level, primarily as a means of reducing
unemployment and social unrest. The initiatives they set in motion necessarily take a wider perspective and pay little heed
to diverse needs, aspirations and goals among the socially excluded. There is a need for European educationalists to increase
their own awareness of the European context—not simply the national context—in which they work. They need also to develop
perspectives on major European initiatives to combat social exclusion, the effects of which will remain otherwise unexplored
by a community of educationalists with a history of interest in and commitment to challenging educational disadvantage.

Any policy reform in education is highly effective when it is planned and implemented ‘holistically’ and yet, it is the most challenging way forward. Many countries in Asia have reformed their English language policies and syllabi in the last two decades due to the increasing value of the language worldwide. Motivated by a ‘communicative approach’ to English language teaching, Bangladesh was one of the countries that launched such a reform in the 1990s. However, this reform has been criticised for imposing the changes on teachers without preparing them sufficiently. More importantly, there is limited evidence as to how much the secondary English language assessment system is aligned with the changes introduced in the curriculum. In order to explore this gap, a medium-scale study was conducted in 38 secondary schools in Bangladesh, following a mixed methods approach. The findings highlighted a ‘mismatch’ between the intended English language learning outcomes and current assessment practices, including the resulting challenges faced by the teachers. This paper argues that language education reform is likely to fail if the assessment system is not aligned with the curriculum. 相似文献

The virus, commonly known as COVID‐19 which emerged in Wuhan, China, in December 2019, has spread in 213 countries, areas or territories around the globe, with nearly 144 683 deaths worldwide on 18 April 2020. In the wake of this pandemic, we have witnessed a massive infodemic with the public being bombarded with vast quantities of information, much of which is not scientifically correct. Fighting fake news is now the new front in the COVID‐19 battle. This regular feature comments on the role of health sciences librarians and information professionals in combating the COVID‐19 infodemic. To support their work, it draws attention to the myth busters, fact‐checkers and credible sources relating to COVID‐19. It also documents the guides that libraries have put together to help the general public, students and faculty recognise fake news. 相似文献

Learning behind bars: Education in prisons 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
This article is based on the negotiated meanings of ‘teaching’ and learning' in prisons. It is informed by the peripheral experiences of prisoners and the legitimate peripheral participation of their teachers. It was found that teachers and students are interdependent and feel equally marginalized. The positions occupied by teachers make legitimate peripheral participation (Lave & Wenger, 1991) possible though it is restricted within limits imposed by their place of work. The research, based on in-depth interviews of four teachers explores the challenges facing both teachers and their students. Concerns about prisoners' dignity, their human rights, entitlement to education and recognition of their learning difficulties are voiced against a culture of acquiescence and unquestioning obedience demanded by the prison regime outside the education classes. 相似文献
