Book excerpt: Partant du postulat peu discuté selon lequel la capacité de lecture est l'une des clés de la réussite universitaire, les contributions rassemblées dans cet ouvrage font dialoguer des chercheurs en didactique des langues maternelles et secondes, des linguistes, des psychologues et des sociologues. L'ouvrage se propose d'interroger quelques-unes des fonctions de la lecture, notamment celle d'outil ordinaire du travail universitaire. Parmi les sujets abordés, on relèvera l'examen des différentes pratiques de lecture en Langue 1 et en Langue 2, le rôle des interactions lecture-écriture dans différents contextes nationaux, mais aussi la question des transferts de compétences en langue 1 et 2. Il s'agit en particulier de savoir comment les capacités de lecteurs en langue 1 sont mobilisées lors de la lecture en langue 2 et en quoi elles permettent de compenser partiellement les difficultés rencontrées. D'autres problèmes, comme celui que posent au lecteur des écrits de genres différents, aux caractéristiques textuelles et énonciatives spécifiques, fournissent la matière d'autres contributions. L'ensemble se veut un apport à la didactique de l'enseignement supérieur, actuellement en plein développement.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2014 Outstanding Academic Title, Choice "What’s going on in this picture?" With this one question and a carefully chosen work of art, teachers can start their students down a path toward deeper learning and other skills now encouraged by the Common Core State Standards. The Visual Thinking Strategies (VTS) teaching method has been successfully implemented in schools, districts, and cultural institutions nationwide, including bilingual schools in California, West Orange Public Schools in New Jersey, and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. It provides for open-ended yet highly structured discussions of visual art, and significantly increases students’ critical thinking, language, and literacy skills along the way. Philip Yenawine, former education director of New York’s Museum of Modern Art and cocreator of the VTS curriculum, writes engagingly about his years of experience with elementary school students in the classroom. He reveals how VTS was developed and demonstrates how teachers are using art—as well as poems, primary documents, and other visual artifacts—to increase a variety of skills, including writing, listening, and speaking, across a range of subjects. The book shows how VTS can be easily and effectively integrated into elementary classroom lessons in just ten hours of a school year to create learner-centered environments where students at all levels are involved in rich, absorbing discussions.

Download or read book Methods for the Study of Literature as Cultural Memory written by International Comparative Literature Association. Congress and published by Rodopi. This book was released on 2000 with total page 484 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this volume collaborators from different universities all over the world explore a wide variety of methods for the study of literature as cultural memory. In literature, the past may be (re)constructed in various ways and in very diverse forms. This immediately raises the question as to how one can describe and inventory the various discourses and metadiscourses of historical representation. In what sense can the rhetoric of literary historiography itself contribute to literature's function as cultural memory? Which methods of analysis are most appropriate for describing specific text types or genres as cultural memory? What have been the pragmatic uses and the ethical merits of the stability and continuity that literature has often provided for European, American, Asian and African cultures? What are the dilemmas they create for our teaching at the end of the twentieth century? To all these questions, a wide range of scholars here tries to find answers. In thorough and highly original contributions, they not only address theoretical problems, but also engage themselves in practical analyses of specific works.
Download or read book The Oxford Handbook of Numerical Cognition written by Roi Cohen Kadosh and published by Oxford Library of Psychology. This book was released on 2015 with total page 1217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do we understand numbers? Do animals and babies have numerical abilities? Why do some people fail to grasp numbers, and how we can improve numerical understanding? Numbers are vital to so many areas of life: in science, economics, sports, education, and many aspects of everyday life from infancy onwards. Numerical cognition is a vibrant area that brings together scientists from different and diverse research areas (e.g., neuropsychology, cognitive psychology, developmental psychology, comparative psychology, anthropology, education, and neuroscience) using different methodological approaches (e.g., behavioral studies of healthy children and adults and of patients; electrophysiology and brain imaging studies in humans; single-cell neurophysiology in non-human primates, habituation studies in human infants and animals, and computer modeling). While the study of numerical cognition had been relatively neglected for a long time, during the last decade there has been an explosion of studies and new findings. This has resulted in an enormous advance in our understanding of the neural and cognitive mechanisms of numerical cognition. In addition, there has recently been increasing interest and concern about pupils' mathematical achievement in many countries, resulting in attempts to use research to guide mathematics instruction in schools, and to develop interventions for children with mathematical difficulties. This handbook brings together the different research areas that make up the field of numerical cognition in one comprehensive and authoritative volume. The chapters provide a broad and extensive review that is written in an accessible form for scholars and students, as well as educationalists, clinicians, and policy makers. The book covers the most important aspects of research on numerical cognition from the areas of development psychology, cognitive psychology, neuropsychology and rehabilitation, learning disabilities, human and animal cognition and neuroscience, computational modeling, education and individual differences, and philosophy. Containing more than 60 chapters by leading specialists in their fields, the Oxford Handbook of Numerical Cognition is a state-of-the-art review of the current literature.
Download or read book The Skill Approach in Education written by Mehmet Serdar Erciş and published by Cambridge Scholars Publishing. This book was released on 2018-07-27 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, information and technological developments grow at a rapid pace. Social and political life becomes more and more complicated and, in this process, active citizenship becomes more essential. Knowledge-driven changes in society and economies require individuals to quickly acquire new skills. Otherwise, it is increasingly difficult for employees to adapt to business life and to find a job. Education has to take account of these circumstances, adapt to the rapid developments in the world and educate individuals to continue lifelong learning. For this, skills such as active and independent learning, assertiveness, creativity, self-improvement, lifelong learning are important. Skill teaching differs from knowledge teaching. Skill is the transfer of knowledge to practice. This process involves a learning process that requires the steps of researching, planning, controlling and correcting. The knowledge should be organized, integrated, transferred into practice, mental and physical resources should be activated, and knowledge use should be demonstrated in practice in order to improve the skill. This book contributes to the teaching of skills and includes basic concepts and skills, language skills, science and mathematics skills, psycho-social skills and visual arts skills. It also explains how to teach skills, how to prepare for activities and how to implement activities in educational settings. These applications are intended to draw attention to skill teaching, to raise educators, to increase the success of education, to improve the skills of students, and to enable them to use the skills they have learned in school outside of school and in complex tasks.

This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'évaluation efficace de la performance des systèmes éducatifs est un élément essentiel de la mise au point de politiques visant à optimiser le développement du capital humain dans le monde. Les cinq manuels de la collection Évaluations nationales des acquis scolaires introduisent les concepts clés des évaluations nationales du niveau de performances des élèves, dont les questions politiques à traiter dans la conception et la mise en 'uvre des évaluations ou le développement d'un test, la conception d'un questionnaire, l'échantillonnage, l'organisation et la mise en 'uvre de la collecte de données, le nettoyage et l'analyse statistique des données, la rédaction de rapports et l'exploitation des résultats pour améliorer la qualité de l'éducation. Qu'apprennent les élèves ' Dans le monde, les gouvernements qui aspirent à améliorer la qualité de l'éducation se tournent vers les évaluations nationales pour obtenir ces informations si précieuses dans les domaines clés des programmes de cours. La capacité à mener des évaluations nationales s'est remarquablement renforcée ces dernières années, mais l'utilisation généralisée des conclusions n'a pas suivi. Ce manuel vise à démontrer la valeur essentielle de ces données et à assister les pays dans l'exploitation des connaissances issues des évaluations nationales. Communiquer et utiliser les résultats d'une évaluation nationale des acquis scolaires recense les principaux facteurs qui affectent l'utilisation des constatations des évaluations nationales. Ceux-ci comprennent le contexte politique dans lequel une évaluation est menée, la nature de l'évaluation (sur la base d'un recensement ou d'un échantillon), les responsabilités de chacun vis-à -vis des résultats, et la qualité des instruments d'évaluation. Le manuel décrit le type d'informations requises dans le rapport principal d'une évaluation nationale, et d'autres moyens de communiquer les conclusions aux publics techniques et non techniques. Il énonce les principes généraux à suivre pour traduire les résultats des évaluations nationales dans le cadre de politiques et de mesures, et examine les procédures spécifiques d'utilisation des données dans l'élaboration de politiques, la gestion de l'éducation, l'enseignement et la promotion de la sensibilisation du public. Les thèmes traités dans ce volume sont de nature à intéresser les responsables des politiques, les équipes pédagogiques, les chercheurs et les professionnels du développement.
Download or read book From Reading Writing Research to Practice written by Sophie Briquet-Duhazé and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2019-04-09 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Teachers regularly seek to update their practice with newly-developed tools from the realm of research, with the aim of applying them directly in the classroom, particularly for teaching reading and writing. Thus, teachers’ continuing education is dependent on the effective dissemination and appropriation of research results. This book explores this problem from multiple angles, presenting research projects from France and Quebec, Canada. Using a variety of methods, including creating teaching materials and engaging classroom teachers in the research process, the authors demonstrate the importance of ownership and dissemination of research results in schools. Although this necessity sometimes complicates the work of researchers, it is vital to develop and maintain the relationship between reading–writing research and its practical applications.
