The Translation of Nursery Rhymes into Spanish: A Methodological Framework
2018
El objetivo de esta tesis es el estudio de nursery rhymes (rimas infantiles) desde una perspectiva traductológica. La traducción de estas rimas anglosajonas se encuentra de una forma cada vez más extendida en español, en ejemplos escritos y audiovisuales, donde en ocasiones aparecen de forma intertextual y fragmentada. Para proponer una discusión teórica y un marco formal en este ámbito específico de investigación, se inicia la tesis con una contextualización de términos, con la intención de establecer la posición de las nursery rhymes en relación con la infancia, la literatura infantil y su traducción. Las características orales de las nursery rhymes (su origen, patrón rítmico común, music…

Educazione del carattere, letteratura per l’infanzia e stile di vita digitale. Un percorso di formazione iniziale degli insegnanti
2017
L’assunto teorico di partenza è stata l’importanza che i futuri insegnanti di scuola primaria siano in grado di sapersi orientare nel panorama contemporaneo della Letteratura per l’infanzia e acquisiscano le competenze metodologiche per progettare percorsi educativi per la formazione del carattere, centrati sulla lettura. Con la progettazione di pratiche innovative, attraverso l’uso delle tecnologie, ci siamo proposti di far individuare agli studenti i principi e le strategie per lo sviluppo del carattere negli alunni di scuola primaria attraverso la letteratura per l’infanzia, facendo riferimento in particolare al “Character Education Movement”. Il campione è composto da 170 studenti del I…
Konwencja pamiętnika, dziennika, autobiografii w książkach o wojnie dla młodego czytelnika
2018
The selection of books about war for young readers is impressive thanks to the joint effort of writers and publishers (e.g. Wydawnictwo Muchomor, Stentor, Literatura, The State Auschwitz-Birkenau Museum, The Warsaw Rising Museum). Most works are prose: diaries, journals, memoirs; stylized texts (fictional diaries, memoirs, stories, chronicles), and autobiographical works. What they have in common is the figurę of the narrator: a child, teenager or adult, who gives an account of events either from the perspective of "here and now” or "then and today". The artistic consequences of such a creation of the subject include emotionalism and subjectivity of narration, a protagonist involved in the …
How Are Practice and Performance Related? Development of Reading From Age 5 to 15
2021
Does reading a lot lead to better reading skills, or does reading a lot follow from high initial reading skills? The authors present a longitudinal study of how much children choose to read and how well they decode and comprehend texts. This is the first study to examine the codevelopment of print exposure with both fluency and comprehension throughout childhood using autocorrelations. Print exposure was operationalized as children’s amount of independent reading for pleasure. Two hundred children were followed from age 5 to age 15. Print exposure was assessed at ages 5, 7, 8, 9, and 13. Prereading skills were tested at age 5 and reading skills at ages 7, 8, 9, 14, and 15 (the latter with t…
L'enseignement interdisciplinaire de la littérature pour enfants écrite en anglais
2014
El objetivo de este estudio es el de elaborar una propuesta didáctica que maximice el tiempo y los recursos destinados a la enseñanza del inglés durante los tres ciclos que, en España, recibe la educación primaria, con alumnos con edades comprendidas entre los 6 y los 12 años. El método escogido para lograr dicho objetivo es la interdisciplinariedad, de tal modo que pueda lograrse la síntesis de contenidos pertenecientes a distintas disciplinas y áreas curriculares, en este caso a la “Enseñanza de una lengua extranjera” (inglés) y al “Conocimiento del medio natural, social y cultural”. El contexto práctico de esta propuesta, en cambio, es únicamente el conformado por las clases correspondie…
Interpretation, Negotiation, Play
2022
Augmented reality (AR) picturebooks combine printed children's literature with augmented reality. This study examines the shared reading of the Finnish AR picturebook Mur, eli karhu (2016) by Kaisa Happonen and Anne Vasko. The main aim of the study is to explore the playful reading experience of three Finnish families with children between the ages of 4 and 6. Three main categories of engagement with the book are discussed in the article: interpretation, negotiation, and play. The findings of the study suggest that children are skilled users of mobile digital media but may not understand the content of AR without parental mediation. In addition, parents and educators are required to have su…
Exploiting children's literature in EFL teaching from the different learners' point of view : a differentiated teaching material package for fourth g…
2016
Kirjallisuuden hyödyntäminen kieltenopetuksessa Suomessa on ollut suhteellisen vähäistä. Kirjallisuuden käyttö kielten opetuksessa tarjoaa kuitenkin enemmän hyötyjä kuin haasteita. Kielen oppimisen lisäksi kirjallisuuden käytöllä voidaan edistää laajempia opetussuunnitelman mukaisia tavoitteita esimerkiksi ihmisenä kasvua. Uusi opetussuunnitelma velvoittaa kehittämään oppilaiden monilukutaitoa eri oppiaineissa, joten se mahdollistaa myös kirjallisuuden käytön kieltenopetuksessa. Yhtenä syynä kirjallisuuden vähäiselle hyödyntämiselle on varmaan ollut oppimisen ja opettamisen haasteet, joita heterogeeniset oppilasryhmät tarjoavat. Uusi opetussuunnitelma velvoittaa ottamaan huomioon erilaiset …

Leaning on five case studies, this article examines how picture book apps affo…
