How the Alternative for Germany (AfD) and their voters veered to the radical right, 2013–2017
2019
Abstract Until 2017, Germany was an exception to the success of radical right parties in postwar Europe. We provide new evidence for the transformation of the Alternative for Germany (AfD) to a radical right party drawing upon social media data. Further, we demonstrate that the AfD's electorate now matches the radical right template of other countries and that its trajectory mirrors the ideological shift of the party. Using data from the 2013 to 2017 series of German Longitudinal Elections Study (GLES) tracking polls, we employ multilevel modelling to test our argument on support for the AfD. We find the AfD's support now resembles the image of European radical right voters. Specifically, g…
Promoting Inquiry Based Learning through entertaining science activities
2021
Considering students’ increasing lack of interest and motivation for science subjects, it becomes almost imperative to introduce different methodology approaches in classrooms. Besides, decontextualized science teaching, where hands on activities are not sufficiently taken into account, can make the students attitude toward science-learning even worse. Inquiry Based Learning where elements such as games, toys and short experiments are included is showed as a useful methodological proposal. This paper presents how the use of these entertaining science activities can improve students’ interest and encourage them to speak about science, acquiring better argumentation and inquiry skills when th…
La fobología, ¿ciencia o forma de entretenimiento?
2011
In last years, a wide range of manifestations linked to fear have been certainly become in a serious concern and challenge for citizenry worldwide. Ranging from the war on terror, outbreak of a new virus, natural or man-made disasters to the risk of a nuclear accidents we are now witness (in the inception of a new millennium) of a proliferation of fears and panic. As a result of the high-related degree of uncertainty that characterizes our postmodern life of consumption, our ontological state of security seems to be overloaded. As the previous argument given, the present paper provides readers with a new discipline to research these types of issues in a near future, the phobology. To what a…
Se conoce que: comportamiento macrosintáctico y funciones discursivas
2022
Se conoce que es una expresión no incluida en los estudios sobre construcciones en proceso de fijación. En este estudio, se dedica una primera parte a su descripción sintáctica, a su definición en los diccionarios, a la percepción que de ella tienen los hablantes y a los contextos en los que aparece. En la segunda parte, a través del análisis de algunos ejemplos, se propone un acercamiento a su comportamiento macrosintáctico y discursivo. Se ve cómo puede desempeñar una función evidencial y verbalizar el grado de compromiso e implicación del hablante con respecto al enunciado.
Enseñanza de las ciencias : revista de investigación y experiencias didácticas
2021
La biodiversidad es un concepto complejo, convertido en un importante referente curricular. Esta investigación explora si un ejercicio avanzado de las competencias necesarias para hacer significativo el concepto de biodiversidad en diferentes contextos conlleva una mejora significativa de la calidad de los argumentos implicados en la toma de decisiones sobre conservación de la biodiversidad. Para ello se ha aplicado una metodología cualitativa al análisis de doce argumentos formulados por estudiantes de 1.º de Bachillerato, caracterizados por su elevada complejidad estructural, de los cuales se muestra uno a modo de ejemplo. Los resultados revelan que, a pesar del nivel de cohesión estructu…
A parental voice: parents as equal and dependent – rhetoric about parents, teachers, and their conversations
2009
This study analyses texts from the National Parents’ Committee for Primary and Lower Secondary Education in Norway and addresses how parents describe their own role, the teachers’ role, and their conversations. The theoretical perspective employed is Koselleck’s conceptual theory. The findings show that, despite having formal legal rights, parents must constantly legitimize these rights in school. Parents are expected to assume a passive role, while the teachers’ role is held to be active. Furthermore, the diversity among parents is not discussed. Parents moreover resign their own involvement in their children’s education in spite of the fact that teachers and parents may have different per…
Argument graph as a tool for promoting collaborative online reading
2012
This study explored how the construction of an argument graph promotes students' collaborative online reading compared to note-taking. Upper secondary school students (n = 76) worked in pairs. The pairs were asked to search for and read source material on the Web for a joint essay and either construct an argument graph or take notes during online reading. The data consist of transcription protocols of student pairs' discussions and joint essays. The study indicated that argument graphs may be useful tools when teachers want students to pay attention to the argumentative content of online sources and to consider relations between arguments. Additionally, with argument graphs, teachers can su…
