Book excerpt: La présente étude multicas tente d'identifier les pratiques de leadership des directions d'école qui ont réussi la mise en œuvre des communautés d'apprentissage professionnelles ainsi qu'à faire progresser ces communautés vers un stade avancé de fonctionnement dans deux écoles élémentaires et deux écoles secondaires de langue française ontariennes. Pour mieux comprendre la dynamique du leadership, nous avons associé les pratiques identifiées aux types de leadership en cours en éducation. De plus, nous avons présenté un modèle de leadership qui respecte les prémisses d'un milieu linguistique minoritaire et d'un milieu collaboratif. Dans cette recherche, nous avons mené des entrevues semi-dirigées auprès de quatre directrices et de onze enseignants qui travaillent en communautés d'apprentissage professionnelles (CAP) à un stade avancé afin d'y déceler les différentes pratiques qui ont une incidence positive sur le travail en CAP. Pour ce faire, nous nous préoccupons de bien refléter quatre différents milieux scolaires afin d'observer les pratiques de la direction, d'y déceler les convergences et les divergences dans la mise en place des communautés d'apprentissage professionnelles harmonieuses. À la suite de l'analyse des résultats, plusieurs catégories ont émergé qui sont cohérentes avec les conditions d'implantation des CAP retrouvées dans les études (DuFour, 2004 ; Leclerc et Moreau, 2009 ; Roberts et Pruitt, 2010). Nos résultats nous ont permis d'identifier plusieurs pratiques des directions que nous avons regroupées en sept catégories : 1) garde l'accent sur la vision, la mission et les priorités de l'école ; 2) s'active à promouvoir la pédagogie et la formation continue ; 3) est capable d'évaluer son environnement interne ; 4) adopte une approche démocratique dans le processus de décision ; 5) met en place des structures et un processus qui favorisent le travail en collaboration ; 6) nourrit une culture basée sur des valeurs de collaboration et de réussite scolaire ; 7) rend des comptes à la communauté. Parmi les pratiques des directions jugées les plus utiles dans la mise en œuvre et la progression des CAP, les directions et les enseignants ont identifié dans chaque catégorie : 1) la direction encourage les équipes à formuler leurs objectifs SMART pour s'aligner avec le plan d'amélioration (les directions et les enseignants) ; 2) la direction cherche à approfondir ses connaissances et celles des enseignants avec l'aide des experts du conseil et de l'extérieur (les directions et les enseignants) ; 2) la direction connaît les programmes et les pratiques pédagogiques réussies pour les implanter dans son école (les directions et les enseignants) ; 3) la direction est présente à l'école et lors des rencontres (enseignants) ; 3) la direction sait analyser le climat organisationnel au sein de l'école (les directions) ; 4) la direction partage le pouvoir en faisant participer le personnel dans le processus de décisions, d'identification des priorités et la gestion de l'école (les directions) ; 4) la direction consulte et accueille la rétroaction de son personnel (les enseignants) ; 5) la direction établit et met en place un horaire fonctionnel (les enseignants) ; 5) la direction appuie ses leaders dans leur gestion des équipes (les directions) ; 6) la direction encourage le partage des connaissances, des stratégies et du travail en collaboration (les directions et les enseignants) ; 7) la direction responsabilise tout le personnel vis-à-vis de la réussite des élèves (les enseignants). Ces résultats sont cohérents avec les recherches sur la contribution du conseil scolaire et du ministère de l'Éducation dans la mise en œuvre et la progression des CAP (Génier, 2013 ; Maatouk, 2014) et l'importance de ±mettre au point l'organisation pour soutenir les pratiques souhaitées? (Leithwood, 2012, p. 12). Plusieurs types de leadership sont nécessaires dans l'implantation réussie d'une innovation telle que les communautés d'apprentissage professionnelles (Lapointe, 2005 ; Louis et al., 2010 ; Marzano et al., 2016). Les résultats indiquent que les leaderships moral/éthique, transformationnel, pédagogique, partagé et managérial sont associés à la mise en œuvre réussie des CAP dans les quatre cas étudiés. Il semble que le leadership managérial revêt une importance pour que les CAP soient opérationnelles, en particulier dans les plus grandes écoles secondaires (Anderson et al., 2013). Ainsi, ces résultats concordent avec ceux des chercheurs qui indiquent la nécessité d'une approche qui se caractérise par une complémentarité des types de leadership et de gestion pour l'atteinte des objectifs de l'école (Anderson et al., 2013 ; Lapointe, 2005 ; Leithwood et Duke, 1998).

This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cette recherche vise à examiner les relations entre la perception que des membres du personnel enseignant ont des pratiques du leadership transformationnel de la direction d'école, du contexte scolaire et des conditions favorisant leur engagement à implanter le renouveau pédagogique dans leur école. Le schéma conceptuel et le questionnaire qui sous-tendent cette recherche sont une adaptation de ceux élaborés par Yu, Leithwood et Jantzi (2002). Le questionnaire a été complété par 31 membres du personnel enseignant de quatre écoles primaires montréalaises appartenant à des commissions scolaires anglophones et francophones. À partir de ces données, nous avons calculé des moyennes et nous avons comparé les écoles, à l'aide des tests Mann-Whitney, selon leur niveau d'implantation du renouveau pédagogique, leur niveau socioéconomique et la langue de la commission scolaire d'appartenance. De plus, pour compléter nos données quantitatives, nous avons repris quelques citations des entrevues faites auprès des directions de ces écoles que les professeurs du département d'Administration et fondements de l'éducation de l'Université de Montréal, qui font partie du Groupe de recherche sur l'éducation en milieux défavorisés (GRÉMD), ont effectuées dans le cadre d'une autre étude. Les comparaisons des écoles selon leur niveau d'implantation du renouveau pédagogique révèlent que le personnel enseignant des deux écoles en changement se distingue de celui des deux écoles peu engagées dans le changement sur un seul point majeur : il a évalué moins positivement le contexte scolaire, un résultat appuyé par les analyses non paramétriques. Il semble que, dans les écoles qui ont participé à notre étude, le fait de soutenir l'implantation du renouveau pédagogique serait associé à une évaluation plus faible du contexte scolaire ; la culture de l'école et l'environnement étant les conditions les plus touchées. Un autre résultat de cette recherche est le fait que les enseignantes de l'école favorisée ont évalué le contexte scolaire, notamment la culture, l'environnement et les stratégies pour le changement, moins positivement que les enseignantes des écoles défavorisées. Enfin, les comparaisons des écoles en fonction de la langue de la commission scolaire indiquent qu'il n'existe pas de différence significative dans les évaluations faites des trois variables, que les enseignantes travaillent dans une école appartenant à une commission scolaire anglophone ou francophone. Étant donné que l'échantillon d'enseignantes qui a participé à notre étude est modeste, les résultats de cette recherche ne peuvent pas être généralisés, cependant ils pourraient constituer une base pour des recherches ultérieures dans ce domaine.
Download or read book The linguistic integration of adult migrants from one country to another from one language to another written by Council of Europe and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 58 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The linguistic integration of migrants affects every aspect of settling in a new country (employment, health, etc.). The aim of this collection of texts is to propose a number of specific measures member states can take to help adult migrants become acquainted with the language of the host country. The main focus is on organising language courses that meet migrants’ real communication needs. It is not enough for authorities simply to consider the technical aspects of such courses, they should also design and conduct them in accordance with the fundamental values of the Council of Europe. A number of issues concerning the linguistic integration of adult migrants are presented here, beginning with the notion of linguistic integration itself. Family reunion, the nature of citizenship and the function of language tests, among others, are dealt with from the point of view of language and language use. Readers are invited to reflect on the type of language competences that need to be acquired as well as an appropriate use of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. The collection also sets out approaches and instruments designed to assist in implementing effective policies.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: SUZANNE MAJHANOVICH and CHRISTINE FOX Originally published in the journal International Review of Education, Volume 54, Nos 3–4, 287–297. DOI: 10. 1007/s11159-008-9097-9 Springer Science+Business Media B. V. 2008 The papers in this collection have been selected from over 800 presentations given at the XIIIth World Congress of Comparative Education Societies, held at the University of Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, from 3 to 7 September 2007. The Congress was hosted on behalf of the WCCES by the Mediterranean Society of Comparative Education and in association with the International Association of Intercultural Education. For such an int- national gathering, it was appropriate that the theme chosen was ‘‘Living Together: Education and Intercultural Dialogue’’, providing scope for c- tributions by participating scholars, policy makers and practitioners in e- cation from some 70 countries. The presenters approached contemporary educational issues with knowledge and insights about a world characterized by the tensions and demands of global and local interests, by regional c- ?icts and post-con?ict deliberations, and by the global diaspora, with c- tural, religious and linguistic diversity within both small and large states. Only a very few papers could be included for this collection, but they rep- sent some of the key topics under discussion during the Congress. The papers were selected from the recommendations of the convenors of the 13 Thematic Groups, the keynote addresses and several symposia.

Download or read book Globalisation and Comparative Education written by Joseph Zajda and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-03-24 with total page 228 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on discourses of globalisation in comparative education research and the politics of education reforms. It analyses and evaluates the shifts in methodological approaches to globalisation and education reforms, as reflected in comparative education research and their impact on education policy and pedagogy. The book covers topics such as globalisation and comparative education, globalisation as a multidimensional construct, methods and methodologies in comparative education, the moral face of post-structuralism, and school reforms in the age of globalisation. It offers a critical analysis of education policy reforms. The book demonstrates a complex nexus between globalisation, ideology and education reforms. On one hand, democratisation and progressive pedagogy is equated with equality, inclusion, equity, tolerance and human rights, while on the other hand, globalisation is perceived – by some critics at least – to be a totalising force that is widening the socio-economic status (SES) gap and cultural and economic capital between the rich and the poor, and bringing power, domination and control by corporate bodies and powerful political, economic and educational organisations. The perception of globalisation as dynamic and multi faceted processes clearly necessitates a multiple perspective approach in the study of comparative education globally. This book contributes in a very scholarly way, to a more holistic understanding of the nexus between globalisation, comparative education research and education reforms.

Download or read book Globalization and Educational Reform written by Martin Carnoy and published by Unesco. This book was released on 1999 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Globalisation puts most governments under pressure to reduce the growth of public spending on education and to find other sources of income for the expected expansion of education systems. In conflict with this is the shift of economic production to knowledge-based intensive products and processes, meaning that the demand for higher education is rising worldwide. In addition, the need for more highly educated low cost labour tends to expand women's educational opportunities, especially in countries where there was resistance to equal access to education for them. Globalised information networks mean the transformation of world culture, but many groups feel marginalised by the market values of this new culture.
