What contexts are favorable for the adoption of the contract teacher policy ?
2010
Education systems in Francophone African countries are undergoing major reforms, consequence of the international commitment to achieve Universal Primary Education (UPE) by 2015. Teachers' recruitment is among the most important reforms for at least two reasons: first, various researches presented it as necessary otherwise UPE will not be achieved; second, the alternative policy proposed is unpopular as new teachers are recruited with lower qualification, receive lower salaries and have a less secure job position. Yet, some governments have succeeded in changing their teacher recruitment scheme and others have not. Conditions allowing a government to make the reform are still uninvestigated…
Modèle d'explication de l'issue des réformes des politiques publiques en Afrique sub-saharienne : Illustration avec la politique des enseignants cont…
2010
African countries' political arena is witnessing major changes due to the involvement of new political actors in the public policy making process (donors, political parties, civil society). In the past, the formulation of policies was a reflection of the central authority's will. Nowadays, governments are confronted with more resistance when adopting reforms. This paper laborates a model that describes the policy process in African countries and shows how new actors can influence the designing of the reform to their advantage. The model predicts that government success or failure in designing a reform according to its will is a function of the adoption pattern chosen and the ability of the …

Discussing Mathematical Learning and Mathematical Praxeologies from a Subject Scientific Perspective
2018
International audience; This programmatic contribution discusses the link between concepts from Anthropological Theory of Didactics (ATD) and the “subject-scientific point of view” according to Holzkamp (1985, 1993). The main common concern of ATD and the subject-scientific approach is to conceptualize and analyse “objects” like “institutionalized mathematical knowledge” and “university” not as conditions that cause reactions but essentially as meanings in the sense of generalized societal reified action possibilities. The link of both approaches is illustrated by the issue of “real numbers” in the transition from school to university: Hypotheses are derived for further actual-empirical res…
Managing Teachers' Job Attitudes: The Potential Benefits of Being a Happy and Emotional Intelligent Teacher
2021
According to the broaden-and-build theory of positive emotions, the frequency of positive emotions is associated with the development of positive attitudes, cognitions, and behaviors in organizational contexts. However, positive and negative attitudes at work might also be influenced by different personal and job resources. While emotional intelligence has been significantly associated with positive job attitudes and personal well-being, no studies have yet examined the joint role of teacher happiness and emotional intelligence in key teacher job attitudes. The present study assesses whether emotional intelligence interacts with levels of teacher happiness to jointly explain important teach…
Where do these rails go? : drama in education in practising fluency for upper secondary school English students
2012
Draamakasvatuksessa oppiminen tapahtuu prosessina kokemusten ja toiminnan kautta. Sen vahvuus kielten opetuksen oppikirjoissa on yleensä tehtävinä, jotka tarjoavat valmiiksi kirjoitettuja vuoropuheluita. Kielen oppimisen kannalta sujuvan, normaalin kielenkäytön opetus on tärkeää ja draama antaa sille mahdollisuuden. Oppilaat tarvitsevat kaiken muun ohella mahdollisuuksia käyttää vierasta kieltä uusissa tilanteissa ja tehdä se tavalla, jolla he pystyvät itse luomaan kommunikointinsa ilman tarkkoja repliikkejä. Tämä oppimateriaali perustuu draamakasvatuksen hyötyihin, jotka on mahdollista sisällyttää kielten opetukseen ja joita muut metodit eivät tarjoa. Oppimateriaali pyrkii tuomaan kielen t…
"Ei tehdä mitään numeroo" : heteronormatiivisuus ja sukupuolen moninaisuus liikunnanopettajien puhetavoissa seksuaali- ja sukupuolivähemmistöihin kuu…
2020
Tutkimme tässä artikkelissa liikunnanopettajien puhetapoja seksuaali- ja sukupuolivähemmistöihin kuuluvista oppilaista koululiikunnassa. Aineisto koostuu kymmenen opettajan haastatteluaineistosta sekä 105 opettajan verkkokyselyaineistosta. Analysoimme laadullisella sisällönanalyysilla puhetavoista heteronormatiivisuutta sekä sukupuolen moninaisuutta. Hallitsevan puhetavan seksuaali- ja sukupuolivähemmistöihin kuuluvien oppilaiden ja opetuskäytäntöjen näkökulmasta muodostavat sukupuolitetut käytännöt, joita liikunnanopettajat haastavat pyrkimällä ei-sukupuolittavaan kielenkäyttöön ja ryhmäjakojen ylityksiin. Parhaiksi tavoiksi edistää seksuaali- ja sukupuolivähemmistöjen yhdenvertaisuutta ja…

Orientamenti nella formazione docente per l’inclusione
2020
Dinanzi alle sfide inclusive che la scuola oggi pone, legate al bisogno di comunità, inclusione, rispetto della diversità, si registra la necessità di accrescere una cultura dell’autovalutazione negli insegnanti, onde generare consapevolezza e programmare piani di miglioramento della didattica. Sin dalla formazione iniziale, è opportuno misurare e monitorare un costrutto complesso come quello dell’inclusione, affinché gli insegnanti sviluppino riflessività e consapevolezza e comprendano meglio il contesto socio-culturale in cui agiscono, nonché gli effetti della loro azione sugli alunni. In tale prospettiva, è stata condotta una rilevazione delle percezioni sull’agire inclusivo su un campio…
