Book La transmission des savoirs en Afrique  Savoirs locaux et langues locales pour l enseignement  avec DVD

Download or read book La transmission des savoirs en Afrique Savoirs locaux et langues locales pour l enseignement avec DVD written by TOURNEUX Henry avec la collaboration de BOUBAKARY Abdoulaye et HADIDJA Konaï and published by KARTHALA Editions. This book was released on 2011-11-03 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: En Afrique subsaharienne, on constate le faible niveau des acquisitions scolaires : il a été établi que l'usage exclusif du français dans les premiers apprentissages de l'école primaire pénalise les enfants dont les parents ne sont pas locuteurs francophones. Un processus en cours étend l'usage de langues africaines dans le cadre d'un enseignement de base bilingue ou multilingue qui offre une meilleure efficacité pour les ruraux et recueille une adhésion croissante des familles et des pédagogues. L'usage de langues nationales occupe donc une place accrue dans les politiques éducatives actuelles et dans les nouveaux curricala de l'enseignement de base. On doit pourtant garder à l'esprit que le choix des langues d'enseignement n'est pas le tout de l'enseignement. En effet, les langues africaines à l'école ne peuvent pas être le simple réceptacle de la traduction de programmes scolaires conçus en français ou en anglais. Ells deviennent un enjeu pour le système éducatif si elles servent à valoriser les savoirs locaux (connaissance du milieu naturel et de sa transformation, techniques artisanales, historie locale et fonctionnement de la société, littérature orale, etc.). Dans ce cas, elles sont un outil de connaissance et d'interaction avec le milieu et la société. Or, les savors locaux sont relativement peu documentés et surtout peu investis dans les pratiques éducatives des pays francophones d'Afrique subsaharienne. Dans cet ouvrage, l'auteur montre comment on peut enrichir les contenus de l'enseignement de base (mais aussi, pourquoi pas, ceux de l'enseignement secondaire, voire supérieur) en allant chercher méthodiquement dans l'inépuisable réservoir des savoirs locaux. Il souhaite pouvoir ainsi aider à combler la brèche qui sépare le milieu rural du milieu urbain : les savoirs locaux ne doivent pas être réservés aux élèves des villages. Un DVD inclus dans l'ouvrage montre aussi l'intérêt d'une utilisation complémentaire de la vidéo.

Book Schools and National Identities in French speaking Africa

Download or read book Schools and National Identities in French speaking Africa written by Linda Gardelle and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-11-25 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Schools and National Identities in French-speaking Africa showcases cutting-edge research to provide a renewed understanding of the role of schools in producing and reproducing national identities. Using individual case studies and comparative frameworks, it presents diverse empirical and theoretical insights from and about a range of African countries. The volume demonstrates in particular the usefulness of the curriculum as a lens through which to analyse the production and negotiation of national identities in different settings. Chapters discuss the tensions between decolonisation as a moment in time and decolonisation as a lengthy and messy process, the interplay between the local, national and international priorities of different actors, and the nuanced role of historiography and language in nation-building. At its heart is the need to critically investigate the concept of "the nation" as a political project, how discourses and feelings of belonging are constructed at school, and what it means for schools to be simultaneously places of learning, tools of socialisation and political battlegrounds. By presenting new research on textbooks, practitioners and policy in ten different African countries, this volume provides insights into the diversity of issues and dynamics surrounding the question of schools and national identities. It will be of particular interest to scholars, researchers and postgraduate students of comparative and international education, sociology, history, sociolinguistics and African studies.

Book Education and Development in Colonial and Postcolonial Africa

Download or read book Education and Development in Colonial and Postcolonial Africa written by Damiano Matasci and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-01-03 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access edited volume offers an analysis of the entangled histories of education and development in twentieth-century Africa. It deals with the plurality of actors that competed and collaborated to formulate educational and developmental paradigms and projects: debating their utility and purpose, pondering their necessity and risk, and evaluating their intended and unintended consequences in colonial and postcolonial moments. Since the late nineteenth century, the “educability” of the native was the subject of several debates and experiments: numerous voices, arguments, and agendas emerged, involving multiple institutions and experts, governmental and non-governmental, religious and laic, operating from the corridors of international organizations to the towns and rural villages of Africa. This plurality of expressions of political, social, cultural, and economic imagination of education and development is at the core of this collective work.

Book Blue White Red

    Book Details:
  • Author : Alain Mabanckou
  • Publisher : Indiana University Press
  • Release : 2013-02-21
  • ISBN : 0253007941
  • Pages : 125 pages

Download or read book Blue White Red written by Alain Mabanckou and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2013-02-21 with total page 125 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Mabanckou dazzles with technical dexterity and emotional depth” in his debut novel, winner of the Grand Prix Littéraire de l’Afrique Noire (Publishers Weekly, starred review). This tale of wild adventure reveals the dashed hopes of Africans living between worlds. When Moki returns to his village from France wearing designer clothes and affecting all the manners of a Frenchman, Massala-Massala, who lives the life of a humble peanut farmer after giving up his studies, begins to dream of following in Moki’s footsteps. Together, the two take wing for Paris, where Massala-Massala finds himself a part of an underworld of out-of-work undocumented immigrants. After a botched attempt to sell metro passes purchased with a stolen checkbook, he winds up in jail and is deported. Blue White Red is a novel of postcolonial Africa where young people born into poverty dream of making it big in the cities of their former colonial masters. Alain Mabanckou’s searing commentary on the lives of Africans in France is cut with the parody of African villagers who boast of a son in the country of Digol. Praise for Alain Mabanckou and Blue White Red “Mabanckou counts as one of the most successful voices of young African literature.” —Internationales Literaturfestival Berlin “The African Beckett.” —The Economist “Blue White Red stands at the beginning of the author’s remarkable and multifaceted career as a novelist, essayist and poet . . . this debut novel shows much of his style and substance in remarkable ways . . . Dundy’s translation is excellent.” —Africa Book Club “Mabanckou’s provocative novel probes the many facets of the ‘migration adventure.’” —Booklist

Book The Violence of Modernity

Download or read book The Violence of Modernity written by Debarati Sanyal and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2020-03-03 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Violence of Modernity turns to Charles Baudelaire, one of the most canonical figures of literary modernism, in order to reclaim an aesthetic legacy for ethical inquiry and historical critique. Works of modern literature are commonly theorized as symptomatic responses to the trauma of history. In a climate that tends to privilege crisis over critique, Debarati Sanyal argues that it is urgent to rethink literary experience in terms that recall its contestatory potential. Examining Baudelaire's poems afresh, she shifts the focus of critical attention toward an account of modernism as an active engagement with violence, specifically the violence of history in nineteenth-century France. Sanyal analyzes a literary current that uses the traditional hallmarks of modernism—irony, intertextuality, self-reflexivity, and formalism—to challenge the historical violence of modernity. Baudelaire and the committed ironists writing in his wake teach us how to read and resist the violence of history, and thereby to challenge the melancholy tenor of our contemporary "wound culture." In a series of provocative readings, Sanyal presents Baudelaire's poetry as an aesthetic form that contests historical violence through rhetorical strategies of complicity, counterviolence, and critique. The book develops a new account of Baudelaire's significance as a modernist by dislodging him both from his traditional status as a practitioner of "art for art's sake" and from his more recent incarnation as the poet of trauma. Following her extended analysis of Baudelaire's poetry, Sanyal in later chapters considers a number of authors influenced by his strategies—including Rachilde, Virginie Despentes, Albert Camus, and Jean-Paul Sartre—to examine the relevance of their interventions for our current climate of trauma and terror. The result is a study that underscores how Baudelaire's legacy continues to energize literary engagements with the violence of modernity.
