Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ce travail porte sur les limites et les besoins en formation dans les communautés d'apprentissage professionnelles (CAPs) en ligne. Dans le cadre de ce travail, les thèmes suivants sont abordés : le fonctionnement et le développement des CAPs ; les besoins en formation dans des CAPs ; le rôle des technologies de l'information et de la communication (TIC) dans ces communautés ; les moyens technologiques utilisés dans les CAPs ; et l'impact de l'intégration de la technologie dans les CAPs. De façon spécifique, cette étude a pour but d'identifier les aspects suivants des CAPs en ligne : des acteurs qui ont procédé à l'intégration et à la promotion de ces communautés ; les besoins en formation éprouvés au sein de ces communautés ; les moyens qui assurent leur bon fonctionnement et les obstacles qui l'entravent. Notre recherche est menée par entrevues semi-structurées auprès de participants (enseignants, directions d'école, conseillers pédagogiques, formateurs) à des CAPs en ligne (N=10) et à des CAPs en face à face (N=39), et ce, dans deux provinces canadiennes : le Québec et le Nouveau-Brunswick. Dans le cadre de cette recherche, nous posons un certain nombre de questions relativement au fonctionnement de ces communautés. Qui a été à l'origine de l'implantation des TIC dans les CAPs ? Quels sont les impacts de l'utilisation des TIC dans les CAPs ? Par quels moyens les TIC sont-elles utilisées ? Comment se vit la collaboration au sein d'une CAP en ligne entre la direction, les conseillers pédagogiques, les enseignants et les formateurs ? Quels sont les rôles joués par ces acteurs en éducation et comment ces CAPs en ligne contribuent-elles à leur développement professionnel ? Quels sont les besoins en formations des participants dans ces CAPs en ligne ? Et, finalement, quelles sont les limites avec lesquelles doivent composer les membres de ces communautés qui sont susceptibles d'entraver leur bon fonctionnement et d'empêcher de combler ces besoins ? Notre cadre conceptuel est construit à partir de quatre modèles théoriques connus : le modèle de la théorie de l'apprentissage de Wenger (2005), le cycle de développement professionnel des enseignants en réseaux de Huberman (1995), le modèle d'activité humaine d'Engeström (1994) et le modèle du développement professionnel des enseignants dans une communauté virtuelle de Daele (2004). Les résultats montrent que ce sont les enseignants et les directeurs qui sont les principaux acteurs à l'origine de l'implantation des TIC dans les CAPs. Le développement des compétences en TIC facilite la collaboration entre les membres de la CAP. Ces derniers manifestent à la fois leur intérêt et leurs besoins en formation en TIC pour assurer l'amélioration de la collaboration et de la communication dans leur CAP. Ils soutiennent l'idée que l'intégration des technologies représente un avantage pour améliorer le fonctionnement des CAPs. Bien que les participants montrent que le développement des compétences en TIC joue un rôle de facilitateur dans leur travail en CAPs, ils soulignent également leurs besoins pour la formation dans ce domaine afin d'améliorer leur développement professionnel. Nos résultats montrent que le temps et l'adaptation aux nouvelles TIC représentent des obstacles majeurs au bon déroulement de la vie dans les CAPs en ligne. Dans le cadre de leur travail au sein des CAPs, nos participants font état de différents besoins. D'une part, des besoins relatifs à leur contexte professionnel : éducationnels, pédagogiques et didactiques. D'autre part, des besoins spécifiques à leur participation aux travaux au sein de la CAP : être avertis sur certains sujets, être accompagnés et avoir une formation continue tout au long de leur participation dans la CAP. Enfin, nos résultats montrent que deux obstacles importants empêchent le bon fonctionnement de ces CAPs : des problèmes financiers et le manque de disponibilité des technologies dans certains milieux.

Download or read book Education for Critical Consciousness written by Paulo Freire and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2021-05-20 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Famous for his advocacy of 'critical pedagogy', Paulo Freire was Latin America's foremost educationalist, a thinker and writer whose work and ideas continue to exert enormous influence in education throughout the world today. Education for Critical Consciousness is the main statement of Freire's revolutionary method of education. It takes the life situation of the learner as its starting point and the raising of consciousness and the overcoming of obstacles as its goals. For Freire, man's striving for his own humanity requires the changing of structures which dehumanize both the oppressor and the oppressed. This edition includes a substantial new introduction by Carlos Alberto Torres, Distinguished Professor and Founding Director of the Paulo Freire Institute, UCLA, USA. Translated by Myra Bergman Ramos.

Download or read book The Vietnamese City in Transition written by Patrick Gubry and published by Institute of Southeast Asian. This book was released on 2010 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the Doi Moi policy of economic renovation was introduced in 1986, Vietnam has undergone deep transformations as a result of the transition to a socialist-oriented market economy. Social and urban transition has taken place in parallel, as urban dynamics were spurred on by Vietnamese public and private stakeholders, and by external agents such as international organizations and international solidarity organizations, experts, consultants and bilateral aid organizations.Here are the results of research carried out by French, Canadian and Vietnamese teams from the north and south of the country on the overarching theme of Vietnamese cities in transition. Some of this research deals with urban dynamics, some with the issues at stake within such dynamics, or with the strategies of the most significant stakeholders in urban transition: civil society, donors within the framework of official aid for development, consultants and international consultancy firms. These projects were carried out between 2001 and 2004 as part of the Urban Research Programme for Development (PRUD), and mainly focus on Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, or both in the case of comparative studies.Is there such a thing as a Vietnamese model of an Asian city? It seems that urban transition in Vietnam is not taking place in as radical and abrupt a manner as in China. The country's capacity for absorbing external models, the quest for a third way between state intervention and economic liberalism, and the fact that the country's architectural heritage is taken into account in urban planning, are just some of the reasons for its particularity. The issues addressed in each chapter, as well as the proposals for further research suggested by the contributors, should act as a catalyst for urban research in Vietnam.

Download or read book Cultural Consultation written by Laurence J. Kirmayer and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-08-15 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on a recently completed project of cultural consultation in Montreal, Cultural Consultation presents a model of multicultural and applicable health care. This model used clinicians and consultants to provide in-depth assessment, treatment planning, and limited interventions in consultation with frontline primary care and mental health practitioners working with immigrants, refugees, and members of indigenous and ethnocultural communities. Evaluation of the service has demonstrated that focused interventions by consultants familiar with patients’ cultural backgrounds could improve the relationship between the patient and the primary clinician. This volume presents models for intercultural work in psychiatry and psychology in primary care, general hospital and specialty mental health settings. The editors highlight crucial topics such as: - Discussing the social context of intercultural mental health care, conceptual models of the role of culture in psychopathology and healing, and the development of a cultural consultation service and a specialized cultural psychiatric service - Examining the process of intercultural work more closely with particular emphasis oto strategies of consultation, the identity of the clinician, the ways in which gender and culture position the clinician, and interaction of the consultant with family systems and larger institutions - Highlighting special situations that may place specific demands on the clinician: working with refugees and survivors of torture or political violence, with separated families, and with patients with psychotic episodes This book is of valuable use to mental health practitioners who are working in multidisciplinary settings who seek to understand cultural difference in complex cases. Psychiatrists, psychologists, social workers, nurse practitioners, primary care providers and trainees in these disciplines will make thorough use of the material covered in this text.

Download or read book A Research Agenda For DSM V written by David J. Kupfer and published by American Psychiatric Pub. This book was released on 2008-08-13 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the ongoing quest to improve our psychiatric diagnostic system, we are now searching for new approaches to understanding the etiological and pathophysiological mechanisms that can improve the validity of our diagnoses and the consequent power of our preventive and treatment interventions -- venturing beyond the current DSM paradigm and DSM-IV framework. This thought-provoking volume -- produced as a partnership between the American Psychiatric Association, the National Institute of Mental Health, the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, and the National Institute on Drug Abuse -- represents a far-reaching attempt to stimulate research and discussion in the field in preparation for the eventual start of the DSM-V process, still several years hence. The book Explores a variety of basic nomenclature issues, including the desirability of rating the quality and quantity of information available to support the different disorders in the DSM in order to indicate the disparity of empirical support across the diagnostic system. Offers a neuroscience research agenda to guide development of a pathophysiologically based classification for DSM-V, which reviews genetic, brain imaging, postmortem, and animal model research and includes strategic insights for a new research agenda. Presents highlights of recent progress in developmental neuroscience, genetics, psychology, psychopathology, and epidemiology, using a bioecological perspective to focus on the first two decades of life, when rapid changes in behavior, emotion and cognition occur. Discusses how to address two important gaps in the current DSM-IV: (1) the categorical method of diagnosing personality disorders and their relationship with Axis I disorders, and (2) the limited provision for the diagnosis of relational disorders -- suggesting a research agenda for personality disorders that considers replacing the current categorical approach with a dimensional classification of personality. Reevaluates the relationship between mental disorders and disability, asserting that research into disability and impairment would benefit from the diagnosis of mental disorders be uncoupled from a requirement for impairment or disability to foster a more vigorous research agenda on the etiologies, courses, and treatment of mental disorders as well as disabilities and to avert unintended consequences of delayed diagnosis and treatment. Examines the importance of culture in psychopathology and the main cultural variables at play in the diagnostic process, stating that training present and future professionals in the need to include cultural factors in the diagnostic process is a logical step in any attempt to develop comprehensive research programs in psychology, psychiatry, and related disciplines. This fascinating work, with contributions from an international group of research investigators, reaches into the core of psychiatry, providing invaluable background and insights for all psychology and psychiatry professionals -- food for thought and further research that will be relevant for years to come.

Download or read book Handbook of Multilingualism and Multiculturalism written by Geneviève Zarate and published by Archives contemporaines. This book was released on 2011 with total page 431 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Built around the concept of linguistic and cultural plurality, this book defines language as an instrument of action and symbolic power. Plurality is conceived here as : a complex array of voices, perspectives and approaches that seeks to preserve the complexity of the multilingual and multicultural enterprise, including language learning and teaching ; a coherent system of relationships among various languages, research traditions and research sites that informs qualitative methods of inquiry into multilingualism and its uses in everyday life ; a view of language as structured sociohistorical object, observable from several simultaneous spatiotemporal standpoints, such as that of daily interactions or that which sustains the symbolic power of institutions. This book is addressed to teacher trainers, young researchers, decision makers, teachers concerned with the role of languages in the evolution of societies and educational systems. It aims to elicit discussion by articulating practices, field observations and analyses based on a multidisciplinary conceptual framework.

Download or read book The Myth of the Muslim Tide written by Doug Saunders and published by Knopf Canada. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Even among people who would never subscribe to its more dramatic claims, the "Eurabia" movement has popularized a set of seemingly common-sense assumptions about Muslim immigrants to the West: that they are disloyal, that they have a political agenda driven by their faith, that their nhigh reproduction rates will soon make them a majority. These beliefs are poisoning politics and community relations in Europe and North America--and have led to mass murder in Norway. Rarely challenged, these claims have even slipped into the margins of mainstream politics. Doug Saunders believes it's time to debunk the myth that immigrants from Muslim countries are wildly different and pose a threat to the West. Drawing on voluminous demographic, statistical, scholarly and historical documentation, Saunders examines the real lives and circumstances of Muslim immigrants in the West: their politics, their beliefs, their observances and their degrees of assimilation. In the process he shatters the core claims that have built a murderous ideology and draws haunting historical parallels showing how the same myths stuck to earlier groups, such as Jews and Roman Catholics. His work will become a vital handbook in the culture wars that threaten to dominate North American and European elections and media discussions in 2012 and afterwards, and will provoke considerable debate over the actual nature of our polyglot societies.
