The Dynamics of Perspective in Quantum Physics: An Analysis in the Context of Teacher Education
2021
Debates on the philosophical interpretations of quantum physics have motivated a renewed interest in how secondary and lower undergraduate students interpret quantum phenomena. In an attempt to contribute to this effort, this paper examines the dynamics of perspec tive in quantum physics in the context of teacher education. The goal of the study is to investigate how students (N = 36) from a Master's Degree in Secondary Education Teacher Training in Spain negotiate perspective as they participate in small-group discussions of quantum physics topics. This study focuses on the wave-particle duality, superposition of states, and the calculation of probabilities for two-state systems. The metho…
Experiences in Sense Making: Health Science Students’I-Positioning in an Online Philosophy of Science Course
2014
This article reports on a qualitative study on the dialogical approach to learning in the context of higher education. The aim was to shed light on the I-Position and multivoicedness in students’ identity building and to provide empirical substantiation for these theoretical constructs, focusing especially on the connection between personal knowledge and theoretical knowledge. The study explored how health science students’ reflections on their work and discipline-related experiences provided resources for making personal sense of and understanding the subject studied. The students took an online course on the philosophy of science. To study students’ internal and external dialogue in terms…
The process and content of advice giving in support of reflective practice in management consulting
2009
Although consulting has been defined as an ‘advice‐giving activity’ there has not been much research on advice practices in management consulting. In particular, there is a lack of evidence on how advice might assist in supporting another central issue in management work, namely reflective practice. This article approaches consulting from a discursive perspective and views reflective practice at the level of language use. The authors use data on naturally occurring talk during a single Organization Development (OD) consulting process and discursive methodology to examine these conversations, and offer empirical evidence on how advising can support reflective managerial practice. Examples of…
The nature of teacher discourse during practical work in lower secondary physics education
2014
Tämä Pro Gradu-tutkielma käsittelee opettajan puhetta kokeellisen työskentelyn aikana suomalaisissa yläkouluissa. Työn tavoite on esitellä tilanne kouluissa sellaisena kuin sen on nyt ja siten toivottavasti innostaa opettajia tarkkailemaan, pohtimaan ja muuntelemaan omaa puhettaan kokeellisia töitä ohjatessa. Työn analyysiosuudessa tehtiin kvalitatiivinen sisällönanalyysi kahdeksalle videoidulle oppitunnille. Tuntien aiheita olivat sähköteho, sähköenergia ja sähkön hinta. Opettajan puheen sisältöä tutkittiin yhtäältä havaintojen ja käsinkosketeltavien asioiden ja toisaalta fysiikan abstraktien teorioiden ja mallien kannalta. Opettaja puhe luokiteltiin kuuluvaksi joko ideoiden piiriin I, esi…
Mecanismos de atenuación entre el decir y lo dicho: procesos de enunciación a través de la partícula discursiva digamos
2018
Este trabajo presenta los resultados obtenidos en el análisis de la partícula discursiva digamos en corpus coloquiales (Val.Es.Co. 2002 y 2.0.), aplicando el sistema de unidades, niveles y posiciones Val.Es.Co. (Briz y grupo Val.Es.Co. 2003, 2014) y la ficha Es. Por. Atenuación (Albelda et alii 2014). El resultado integra dos perspectivas de análisis para determinar si factores como la unidad ocupada o posición discursiva condicionan su polifuncionalidad. This study presents the results obtained from the analysis of the Spanish discourse particle digamos in colloquial corpus. The Val.Es.Co. proposal (Briz et alii 2003, 2014) and the Es.Var.Atenuación analysis sheet (Albelda et alii 2014) ar…
Planonomie
2021
Ce travail d’habilitation développe une proposition à la fois théorique et méthodologique destinée au champ de recherche en urbanisme et en études urbaines. Cette proposition invite à analyser les discours des plans d’urbanisme, en s’appuyant non pas sur un seul cas d’étude ou sur un petit nombre de cas comparés, comme on le voit souvent dans les travaux de recherche en urbanisme, mais en suivant une logique de corpus de grande taille, analysés de manière systématique.Concrètement, il s’agit de constituer des corpus élargis de plusieurs dizaines de documents d’urbanisme. En fonction des questions posées, ces corpus peuvent être soit représentatifs d’un espace national de planification, en i…
Legislative provisions in context: a linguistic approach
2016
The paper takes into consideration legislative provisions from a linguistic point of view. It applies tests of language in a number of texts belonging to the common law drafting practice to ascertain a loss of conceptual focus by legislative drafters and concludes that linguistics can provide a method by which drafters can assess the effectiveness of their draft.
Se l’enunciatore non parla. Note sulla nozione ducrotiana di punto di vista.
2018
«Voice» and «Point of view» have been two of the most debated topics in some fields of linguistics and semiotics. Generally, DUCROT (1984) is considered like one of the first essays which introduced these concepts in the theoretical framework of the analysis of enunciation. As for the first one, the Author limits himself to suggest that it is connected with the notion of «discourse». In fact, by examining some topics of SPERBER & WILSON (1978), he seems to assimilate «voice» to «discourse». Indeed, you can read «j’ai substitué l’expression “faire entendre une voix” à leur expression “mentionner un discours”». As for the second concept, He seems to assimilate «point of view» to intuitive not…
Remembrance of Jews in contemporary catholic homilies
2020
The paper discusses the problem of transferring the memory of Jews through Polish contemporary Catholic homilies. In the biblical pericopies read throughout the liturgical year during Catholic mass, generally Jews play a negative role – as persecutors and killers of Jesus. According to the provisions of the Second Vatican Council, anti-Jewish content cannot be proclaimed in the Catholic Church, and the Bible, which according to the doctrine must remain unchanged, should be adequately commented on in homilies. The paper – on the example of about 40 homilies – shows, however, that priests who preach homilies do not use modern exegetic knowledge, but replicate stereotypes deeply rooted in cult…
Fuzzy Identities in (Dis)Integrating Europe: Discursive Identifications of Poles in Britain Following Brexit
2019
This study explores the fuzzy discursive identifications of Polish residents in Britain following the Brexit referendum by using a corpus of Polish-language glocal media materials (Moja.Wyspa.co.uk). Fuzziness is defined and operationalized on three levels: with respect to (1) online media technologies (global/local; above-/below-the-line) that allow diverse voices; (2) identity positions of non-native residents (Polish migrants as EU citizens at a destabilizing moment) who are left with the sense of anomie and “in-betweenness”; (3) discursive strategies of self-presentation mobilized in the ongoing processes of identification, whose analysis sometimes transcends classificatory grids offere…
