Educated Hope in Dark Times: The Challenge of the Educator-Artist as a Public Intellectual - 0 views

  •  
    "... Reclaiming pedagogy as a form of educated and militant hope begins with the crucial recognition that education is not solely about job training and the production of ethically challenged entrepreneurial subjects and that artistic production does not only have to serve market interests, but are also about matters of civic engagement and literacy, critical thinking, and the capacity for democratic agency, action, and change. It is also inextricably connected to the related issues of power, inclusion, and social responsibility.[2] If young people, artists, and other cultural workers are to develop a deep respect for others, a keen sense of the common good, as well as an informed notion of community engagement, pedagogy must be viewed as a cultural, political, and moral force that provides the knowledge, values, and social relations to make such democratic practices possible. In this instance, pedagogy needs to be rigorous, self-reflective, and committed not to the dead zone of instrumental rationality but to the practice of freedom and liberation for the most vulnerable and oppressed, to a critical sensibility capable of advancing the parameters of knowledge, addressing crucial social issues, and connecting private troubles into public issues. Any viable notion of critical pedagogy must overcome the image of education as purely instrumental, as dead zones of the imagination, and sites of oppressive discipline and imposed conformity. ..."

Teacher Strikes and Private Education in Argentina - #paper - - 0 views

  •  
    "This article analyzes teacher strikes in Argentina during 2006-2012. It stands out how teacher strikes prevail over claims from other unions, and are shown to be relevant events for education policy just for some provinces and only for public schools. We found that none of the policy measures implemented over the last decade has proven to be effective in reducing conflict. Analyzing a dataset on labour unrest, this study builds an index of teacher labour conflict to better understand the evolution of teacher strikes over time and under the various provincial governments that integrate the Argentinian federal education system. The article shows no correlation between teacher labour unrest and the growth of private enrolment. However, we note that despite the lack of statistical correlation, teacher strikes should not be ruled out as an explanatory variable of the increase in private education in Argentina."

    "Formación del Profesorado, Tecnología Educativa e Identidad Docente Digital / Digital Teacher Education, Educational Technology and Teacher Digital Identity José Miguel Correa Gorospe, Lorea Fernández Olaskoaga, Aingeru Gutiérrez-Cabello Barragán, Daniel Losada Iglesias, Begoña Ochoa-Aizpurua Aguirre Resumen La perspectiva de la identidad docente digital es una oportunidad para repensar la influencia de la postmodernidad sobre la Escuela, el curriculum y los docentes. Basándonos en Bauman, Wenger o Gergen hemos definido la identidad digital docente, como un proceso dinámico y permanente que implica dotar de sentido y reinterpretar las propias creencias, valores y experiencias docentes a la luz de los nuevos contextos y marcos de relaciones en la sociedad contemporánea caracterizada por la digitalización de la experiencia humana. En este artículos hemos relacionado la identidad digital docente con los cambios acaecidos en la sociedad contemporánea, las concepciones del conocimiento, la escuela o la autoridad curricular. Reivindicamos un enfoque de la tecnología educativa crítica basada en la emancipación y convivencialidad, que incorpore la reflexión sobre cómo nos configuramos a partir de las experiencias digitales y de la cultura visual. Terminamos este artículo reinvindicando la pedagogía narrativa como estrategia de biografización de la experiencia digital docente."

Close Reading and Argument Writing - Authentically Across the Curriculum - Gu... - 0 views

  •  
    "Close Reading and Argument Writing - Authentically Across the Curriculum 7/16/2015 0 Comments Close reading of informational texts and non-fiction articles is not - and should not be - reserved for language arts classes. Every content area would be immensely enhanced if science teachers, social studies teachers, physical education teachers, welding teachers, woodworking teachers (in other words, "all technical subjects," as Common Core states) would not push aside the textbook, but instead embrace it, along with content area and trade articles. Students would then simultaneously learn how to dissect the readings while gaining knowledge in these content areas. What often happens is that teachers feel that students can't handle the text books or can't read the articles independently - and often that is true. However, when teachers instead go into a survival mode, of sorts, and read aloud the whole chapter or article or summarize it with a slideshow, it ends up doing a disservice to students - students are not learning HOW to read these complex texts. They are not learning how to acquire the information on their own. They are not being given the skills to read the sometimes intricate information within a particular content area or even within their possible future trade. They are not being given the opportunity to read, understand, articulate, and discuss or even debate topics within their area of study. Teachers sometimes feel that they can't do these things with students because they are not language arts teachers, or because they don't have time, or simply because they don't know how. Alternatively, a simple solution is to let go of the control and let students do…..with the guidance called close reading. Close reading is a guided reading approach. It is guided because 1) the close reading strategy is reserved for complex texts that are often too high for students to be left with independently and 2) students don't use close reading strateg

Teachers must ditch 'neuromyth' of learning styles, say scientists - 0 views
