Introduction: Cultural Literacy and Creativity
2021
AbstractThe introductory chapter explains the core concepts of the book: Cultural literacy and creativity. Cultural literacy is defined as a social practice that is inherently dialogic and based on learning and gaining knowledge through emphatic, tolerant, and inclusive interaction. Creativity is seen as stimulating cultural literacy learning through openness and curiosity to test and develop something new or imaginative. The chapter introduces the Cultural Literacy Learning Programme (CLLP) and the research data: 1906 works created by 5–15-year-old children and young people who participated in the program in 2019 and 2020 in Cyprus, Germany, Israel, Lithuania, Spain, Portugal, and the UK. …
Designing Dialogs Around Picture Book Apps
2019
In Norwegian kindergartens there is a strong emphasis on communication and language stimulation. In this educational context the reading of picture book apps offers an opportunity for extended dialogs, which have great didactic potential in that they integrate language knowledge with cultural knowledge. In this chapter we discuss what dimensions of the picture book text (words and pictures), medium (app on digital tablet) and situation (adult-child relations) that the teacher needs to take into consideration when designing dialogs to encourage early language and literacy development in kindergarten. This work represents the first phase of a major innovation project that will develop a resea…
Design and Style of Cultural and Media Studies Textbooks for College Students
2014
This paper uses the conceptual framework of multimodal discourse analysis in order to investigate the dominant styles and designs in selected Cultural and Media Studies (CMS) university textbooks. For many EFL students who major in philology, CMS courses are obligatory and thus constitute a type of content and language integrated learning (CLIL). The data from a description and evaluation of four popular textbooks indicate that there is a discernible move away from traditional literacy towards visuality and orality in textbook design and style. This tendency is evident in the use of segmentation and listing in composition, dialogic layouts and informal registers in exposition and visual aid…
Dialogical patterns of interaction in pre-school classrooms
2012
Abstract The present study set out to identify and examine dialogic educational interactions in Finnish pre-school classrooms. Video recordings of five observed pre-school classrooms that had shown a high or moderate quality of instructional support in literacy, maths and science studies were transcribed for micro-scale qualitative content analysis. Three patterns of teacher–child interaction emerged: first, a pattern characterised by the teacher making it possible for the children to demonstrate their knowledge and competence; second, a pattern characterised by the teacher supporting the children's participation and diverse contributions; and third, a pattern characterised by the teacher a…
Finalidades de la enseñanza de las ciencias en la Secundaria obligatoria. ¿Alfabetización científica o preparación propedéutica?
2001
Resumen basado en el de la revista El propósito de este trabajo es encontrar las ideas, propósitos y objetivos de los profesores de ciencias dentro del marco de las reformas educativas. Se trata de revelar en que medida el pensamiento educativo da prioridad a la enseñanza de los estudiantes en los conceptos científicos, leyes y teorías necesarias en cursos superiores (capacitación propedéutica) y como este pensamiento presta menos atención a la llamada alfabetización científica lo cual se suponía iba a ser el principal objetivo de la enseñanza de ciencias de acuerdo con los diseños del currículum . Al lograr esto, se lleva a cabo un diseño experimental multiple y convergente con un múmero d…
La educación en Ciberciudadanía Responsable
2017
Resumen: Ante el fortalecimiento del papel de la tecnologia en la sociedad actual, se hace necesario pensar el rol de aquella desde un punto de vista mas radical, examinando el fenomeno mismo y sus consecuencias. La Filosofia tiene un papel fundamental a la hora de examinar y proponer alternativas educativas que contemplen las particularidades del proceso formativo del individuo y su papel como ciudadano en una sociedad profundamente mediada por la tecnologia. Partiendo de las afirmaciones de algunos autores como Chomsky, Benkler, Prensky, Ortega y Gasset, Habermas y, especialmente, Hans Jonas, propongo el concepto de “Ciberciudanania Responsable” como marco critico del Homo Tecnologicus, c…
Italian and Spanish Students Perception on Use of Technology in Classrooms of Classics in Secondary School
2019
A society that is becoming increasingly digital must explore new ways of learning. In fact, digital technologies have an impact on the education through the development of more flexible learning environments adapted to the needs of a high-mobility society. To prepare future citizens to the needs of the digital labor market, recent educational reforms in Italy and Spain focused their attention on students' Digital Competences. Therefore, we are interested in probing how students of classical studies in Italian and Spanish high schools perceive the use of new technologies in the classroom. It is important to investigate classics at school, because traditionally this program is perceived as le…
La competenza digitale all’università per la progettazione di percorsi di Media Education Digital literacy at university to design Media Education
2015
La crescente digitalizzazione e globalizzazione dei media, l’ampia diversificazione dell’offerta mediale, con i problemi valoriali ed etici che essa pone, ripresentano e confermano le ragioni che fanno dell’educazione ai media un compito imprescindibile di chi si occupa di educazione. Con interventi educativi specifici e fornendo loro adeguati strumenti di valutazione e di autovalutazione, i futuri educatori vanno aiutati ad acquisire le adeguate competenze digitali necessarie per l’acquisizione della capacità di scelta autonoma e responsabile dei media che permetta loro di progettare percorsi di media education in ambito educativo. La competenza mediale sollecita la capacità di insegnanti …
