Supporting Immigrant-Origin Children: Grounding Teacher Education in Critical Developmental Perspectives and Practices

ABSTRACT

Despite many welcoming individuals and communities, the hegemonic narrative regarding immigrant origin families suggests that hard work may not be enough to overcome the economic, social, and political walls within and encompassing the United States. The increasingly diverse stories of immigrant families are often met with undifferentiated policies and practices, despite considerable racial, ethnic, linguistic, socioeconomic, and other variations. This article provides teacher educators and teacher candidates an ecologically and developmentally sensitive framework to understand immigrant-origin children in a holistic manner in order to support their overall development and learning. It concludes by applying the framework to guide equity-based practices within schools, and by educators, policy makers, and the public so they may more effectively contribute to the education and development of immigrant-origin and other students.

Adolescents’ developing awareness of inequality: Racial and ethnic differences in trajectories

To advance knowledge of critical consciousness development, this study examined age-related change in awareness of inequality by race and ethnicity, gender, parent education, generation status, and their interactions. With longitudinal data (2013–2017) from 5019 adolescents in grades 6–12 (55.0% female) from California, Minnesota, and West Virginia, multigroup second-order latent growth curves were estimated for Black (13.7%), Latinx (37.0%), Asian (8.1%), and white (41.3%) youth. Black, Latinx, and Asian adolescents increased awareness of inequality longitudinally; white youth showed no change. Multiracial youth accelerated awareness of inequality in mid-adolescence; changes in race and ethnicity predicted decline, followed by increases. Girls with more educated, immigrant-origin parents started out more aware of inequality. Results signal the need for race-specific and intersectional approaches to studying critical consciousness development.     

地方残疾儿童学前教育立法的问题与对策——基于部分省份学前教育条例的分析

地方学前教育条例中残疾儿童教育相关条款是残疾儿童学前教育政策体系的重要组成部分。分析发现,部分省份出台的学前教育条例在残疾儿童入园、资助、特殊教育教师津贴、生均经费、资源教室等方面对残疾儿童学前教育相关上位法进行了具体化,体现出一定的创新性,但也存在部分条款贯彻上位法不到位的情形。建议加快《学前教育法》出台进程,完善地方残疾儿童学前教育相关立法,为残疾儿童平等接受学前教育进一步提供法治保障。     

The Role of Immigration Background,Intergroup Processes,and Social-Cognitive Skills in Bystanders’ Responses to Bias-Based Bullying Toward Immigrants During Adolescence

This study examined how intergroup processes and social-cognitive factors shape bystander responses to bias-based and general bullying. Participants included sixth and ninth graders (N = 179, M = 13.23) who evaluated how likely they would be to intervene if they observed bullying of immigrant-origin and nonimmigrant-origin peers. Adolescents’ grade, intergroup attitudes, and social-cognitive abilities were evaluated as predictors of bystander responses. Nonimmigrant-origin adolescents reported that they expect they would be less likely to intervene when the victim is an immigrant-origin peer. Furthermore, participants with more intergroup contact and higher theory of mind were more likely to expect they would intervene in response to bias-based bullying. Findings have important implications for understanding factors that inform antibullying interventions that aim to tackle bias-based bullying against immigrants.

智力落后儿童家庭性教育状况的调查研究

对北京、南京、深圳三地10所培智学校处于青春期学生的家庭性教育状况的调查表明：智力落后儿童的家庭性教育比较薄弱，甚至在一些家庭中是空白的。表现在家长性知识匮乏；不少家长存在观念深处的问题，在对子女进行性教育中所应承担的责任和应扮演的角色认识不足：家长对智力落后儿童有被动的性教育行为，而主动、正面、积极地对孩子进行性教育与指导的较少。在此基础上提出相应的建议。

Responsibilities,tensions and ways forward: parents’ perspectives on children’s sexuality education

Abstract

Children’s sexuality education continues to be plagued with tensions and controversies. In consequence, children’s access to sexuality education is severely compromised, especially in terms of the time dedicated to this topic, the content addressed, how it is taught and by whom. Based on a study of 342 Australian parents of primary school aged children we explore: (i) parents’ perceptions of the relevance and importance of sexuality education to their primary school aged children and the discourses that inform their perspectives; (ii) parents’ views on who should be responsible for the sexuality education of young children; (iii) whether there are certain aspects of sexuality education considered more appropriate for the family to address with children; and (iv) what the implications of these findings are for sexuality education policy and practice in Australian primary schooling. Despite the controversial nature of the topic, the majority of parents in this study believed sexuality education was relevant and important to primary school children and that it should be a collaborative approach between families and schools. However, some parents/carers acknowledged that while that they believed that some topics should only be addressed at home they also indicated that this often does not happen.

The force of habit: channelling young bodies at alternative education spaces

This article develops a novel conceptual framework for examining the (re)formulation of habits in education spaces. It is based on the premise that education spaces are key sites for channelling and intervening in children’s habits, to various ends. The article focuses on the ways educators at alternative education spaces in the United Kingdom seek to (re)formulate children’s habits. In some cases, they do so to combat social exclusion, dealing with some of the most vulnerable children in the UK’s educational system. Drawing on the habit-theories of Ravaisson and Dewey, and commensurate post-human, more-than-social approaches to childhood, the article proposes a two-fold conceptualisation of habit: as ‘(re)calibration’ and as ‘contagion’. The article draws on empirical examples taken from 10 years’ research across 59 alternative education spaces in the United Kingdom. Developing recent educational scholarship on bodies, emotions and affects, it develops an expanded, post-human notion of ‘collective’ habits that might offer a conceptual language for challenging and imagining alternatives to the perceived problems of the neoliberal educational mainstream. However, the article closes by posing some critical questions for further scholarship about why educators might specifically choose to intervene into children’s habits – not least in terms of inclusion and social justice.
