Multidisciplinary Approaches to Anti‐Racist Education: An Introduction to the Talacchanda Exhibition and Education Project

The Talacchanda project took place as an independent research/exhibition undertaking supported by the Glasgow School of Art. Over seventeen months an exploratory education programme was introduced at various levels of schools and higher education. The education programme sprang from a contemporary art exhibition and dance performance called Talaccahnda which was informed by ancient Indian thought on art and drama. The exhibition and performance took place in Glasgow's Tramway Project Room and Theatre in October 2002. It had been shown previously in the British Council Gallery in New Delhi in 2000, and later in 2001 at the artist run space ‘Out of the Blue’ in Edinburgh. Thanks to Scottish Arts Council Lottery funding, Talacchanda Glasgow was accompanied by an education programme, which offered workshops and events in schools, at the gallery, through community groups as well as at GSA and Reid Kerr College, Paisley. By demonstrating connections between apparently disparate activities, the project aimed to serve as a catalyst for fresh thinking on inter‐cultural and anti racist education, and to strengthen connections between the community groups and institutions involved.     

Needs Assessment for INSET for Unqualified Primary Teachers in Namibia: An effective model

The literature endorses the critical role of needs assessment for effective INSET (In-service Education and Training). This view is not however, adequately supported by empirical research. There is also a dearth of literature on the process of needs assessment. The few studies that explore the process focus on the use of questionnaire and interview methods. The latter method was found to be inappropriate for the unqualified primary teachers participating in an INSET programme in Namibia (1995-97). This paper explores the process of needs assessment within this programme and presents an effective model of needs assessment which guided it. The model suggests the use of a multi-pronged qualitative approach to assessing needs.     

Stirring the waters: university INSET in Greece

In view of the increasing demand for in‐service training in Greece, the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki launched English as a Foreign Language (EFL) teacher training courses, offered for the first time by a Greek state university. This paper discusses issues regarding the design and running of the courses as well as briefly presenting trainee feedback and its role in the continuous improvement of the courses. The rationale and the principles adopted in the design of the courses were in line with current approaches to teacher training. In addition, the design of the courses was based on a national survey involving a needs analysis of practising EFL teachers in Greece. The feedback received from the trainees was very positive with regard to the design and organization of the courses, the usefulness of the knowledge acquired and the fulfillment of their expectations.

L'Université d'Aristote de Théssalonique a inicié pour la première fois en Grèce, des stages sur l'enseignement de l'anglais en tant que langue étrangère, de manière à répondre à la demande croissante des enseignants pratiquants pour une formation plus poussée. L'article suivant explique la composition et le fonctionnement des differents séminaires, présente brievement les impressions des stagiaires en établissant l'importance de leurs commentaires pour la continuelle amélioration du stage. Les principes adoptés lors de la création de celui‐ci sont basés sur les approches courantes de formation des enseignants d'anglais. De plus, ce stage prend en compte une enquête nationale établissant les differents besoins des enseignants pratiquants en Grèce. Les commentaires des stagiaires sur l'organisation du cours et l'utilité des informations acquises furent très positifs. Le stage a répondu à leurs differentes attentes.

Wegen der immer größeren Nachfrage nach in‐service training1 In‐service training, sind Trainingskurse die sich an Lehrer richten, die den Beruf schon praktizieren. Wann immer das Wort «Prakizent» im Text benutzt wird, sind diese Lehrer gemeint. View all notes in Griechenland, hat die Aristoteles Universität von Thessaloniki EFL (Englisch als Fremdsprache)Trainingskurse für praktizirende Lehrer angeboten, die es zum ersten mal bei einer griechischen Staatsuniversität gibt. Dieser Artikel befasst sich mit Themen, welche die Struktur und den Ablauf dieser Kurse betreffen, sowie auch wie die Rückinfomation der Praktizenten dazu beigetragen hat diese Kurse ständig zu verbessern. Außerdem wurden die neuen didaktischen Methoden berücksichtigt. Darüber hinaus basiert die Struktur dieser Kurse einer nationallen Umfrage in Griechenland, welche die Lehrbedürfnisse der Prakizenten enthaltet.Um die Struktur dieser Kurse nun noch mehr zu verbessern werden wie die Ruckinformation und die Erfahrung der Praktizenten die schon an ihn teilgenommen haben in Hinsicht nehmen.

En vista de la creciente demanda en Grecia de in service‐training2 In‐service training, son cursos para estudiantes que ya son maestros de ingles. La palabra cursillista se refiere a estos estudiantes. View all notes , la universidad Aristoteles de Salonika comenzo a ofrecer cursos de metodologia para maestros de ingles como lengua extranjera. Esta es la primera vez que una universidad del estado ofrece cursos de este tipo. En este articulo se tratan de discutir los afectos relacionados con el plan y la estructura de estos cursos y, del mismo modo, el papel desempeado por las surgerencias de los cursillistas como ayuda para diseñar los cursos. La filosofia y el pensamiento fueron adoptados de acuerdo con los nuevos metodos didacticas. De hecho, el diseño del curso fue basado en un estudio nacional a cerca de las necesidades de los cursillistas que ya son o seran maestros de ingles como lengua extranjera. Para mejorar estos cursos mas, tendrèmos en cuenta las sugerencias y la experencia de los cursillistas que ya han participado en estos cursos y hacer cambios.     

The Teachers' Centre's INSET Role: A Primary Headteacher's Perspective

This paper reports some of the findings from an evaluation of the New Visions programme, piloted by the National College for School Leadership in 2002–2003. The programme is targeted at school leaders in their first three years of headship and has a strong emphasis on experiential learning. The evaluation evidence is deployed against an earlier literature review on leadership development in education. The findings show that participants were mostly very positive about their New Visions experience. The conclusion suggests that the process-rich approach of New Visions could be widened to include other leadership development programmes, within and beyond NCSL.     

INSET: prospects and practice in developing countries

Recent years have witnessed considerable growth of emphasis in the inservice education and training of educational personnel. It has come to be generally accepted that the pace of social and educational change makes preservice training an inadequate basis for long‐term professional competence, and that inservice training is an essential instrument for updating and upgrading staff. In contrast to preservice training, inservice courses can often be more easily related to the practicalities of the education profession, and several models of inservice training avoid removing staff from the workforce. Inservice practices are not usually without problems, however, many of which may be logistical and financial constraints arising from the decision to cater for trainees in their workplaces rather than in one central location.

This paper highlights some of these issues by reference to the experience of several less developed countries, and in particular by reference to practices in Papua New Guinea. For over a decade, university inservice courses have been organized in Papua New Guinea for school teachers and a variety of educational administrators. These programmes were developed independently of ‘main stream’ thinking on INSET, but analysis of their operation within a more general and contemporary theoretical context sheds useful light on issues of international interest.

The LINDSAY Virtual Human Project: An immersive approach to anatomy and physiology

The increasing number of digital anatomy teaching software packages challenges anatomy educators on how to best integrate these tools for teaching and learning. Realistically, there exists a complex interplay of design, implementation, politics, and learning needs in the development and integration of software for education, each of which may be further amplified by the somewhat siloed roles of programmers, faculty, and students. LINDSAY Presenter is newly designed software that permits faculty and students to model and manipulate three‐dimensional anatomy presentations and images, while including embedded quizzes, links, and text‐based content. A validated tool measuring impact across pedagogy, resources, interactivity, freedom, granularity, and factors outside the immediate learning event was used in conjunction with observation, field notes, and focus groups to critically examine the impact of attitudes and perceptions of all stakeholders in the early implementation of LINDSAY Presenter before and after a three‐week trial period with the software. Results demonstrate that external, personal media usage, along with students' awareness of the need to apply anatomy to clinical professional situations drove expectations of LINDSAY Presenter. A focus on the software over learning, which can be expected during initial orientation, surprisingly remained after three weeks of use. The time‐intensive investment required to create learning content is a detractor from user‐generated content and may reflect the consumption nature of other forms of digital learning. Early excitement over new technologies needs to be tempered with clear understanding of what learning is afforded, and how these constructively support future application and integration into professional practice.

变演示实验为学生实验的一次尝试

在测量浮力等于排开水的重力时:①总感到浮力的变化较大,难以测出一个比较确定的数字;②当烧杯的倾斜程度不论怎样改变,或物体不论是快放,还是慢放入溢水杯,总得有一部分水沿溢杯壁流走;③重复实验时,每次测出浮力的大小的确不等于排开水的重力,并且偏差太大,给实验造成很大困难,不利于得出正确的结论.因此师生共同进行实验,很有必要.
