Using a grounded theory research design, the author examined 180 reflective essays of teacher candidates who participated in a ‘Learning Process Project,’ in which they were asked to synthesize and document their discoveries about the learning process over the course of a completely new learning experience as naïve learners. This study explored (1) the use of grounded theory as a systematic and exploratory research tool, (2) the transformative insights of the teacher candidates as they discovered the impact of the naïve learner perspective on their teaching philosophies, and (3) the role of the naïve learner perspective in effective refinement of teaching and learning ability. Further discussion in this study examined the potential of the ‘Learning Process Project’ to assist post secondary instructors as mentors in supporting empathic teacher candidates who will in turn support and mentor the children in their care. 相似文献

This article describes a theory of how culture enables literary interpretations of texts. We begin with a brief overview of
the reader response field. From there, we introduce the theory and provide illustrative participant data examples. These data
examples illustrate the four cultural positions middle grade students in our research assumed when responding to salient textual
features embedded in African American children’s novels. Our theory suggests that because a range of cultural positions factors
into students’ meaning making, we should mine texts more carefully for cultural milieu as well as find acceptance with a broader
range of literary interpretations. We conclude by discussing implications for literary researchers and practitioners who study
or use multicultural children’s literature. 相似文献

This paper describes an attempt at evaluating a potentially critical “detail” of teaching practice; that is, using a particular diagram to illustrate the imaging role of a converging lens. This “basic” diagram has been designed to contribute to help students overcome the well‐known “travelling image” syndrome. We conducted a comparative study with 125 students in all, at three academic levels: end of secondary school, degree students, and teacher training. The groups compared had previously been taught elementary optical imaging in a classical, uncontrolled manner, and were presented with two classical questions, commonly used to demonstrate students’ difficulties. In each group, one‐half of the students had a classic introductory diagram and the other half had the “basic” one. A positive reaction of students to the evaluated diagram was observed at a relatively high academic level (trainee physics teachers and degree students), in contrast with an apparent lack of effect at the end of secondary school. The paper ends with a discussion of the evaluation of a detail of practice in isolation, with respect to the distance between students’ actual and targeted levels of comprehension. 相似文献

summary This article presents a case study class response to Mildred Taylors now classic and widely read novel, Roll of Thunder Hear My Cry. Through data collected during one school year, the ways urban, adolescent students use their contemporary lenses to interpret the literary theme of confronting, overcoming and challenging racism are discussed. The participants responses are organized into four reader response categories that explicate the complex and interactive interpretations developed by the children while reading the novel. In addition to providing insights about the participants textual understanding, pedagogical findings indicate that the book can also be used to explore the nature of racism while creating a safe space to confront and more deeply understand racisms impact on the past as well as the students current reality. 相似文献

An Author as a Counter-Storyteller: Applying Critical Race Theory to a Coretta Scott King Award Book
Wanda Brooks 《Children‘s Literature in Education》2009,40(1):33-45
This article analyzes the 2002 Coretta Scott King Award book by Mildred Taylor entitled The Land. The novel and its author are situated within a tradition of historical fiction written by and about African Americans. I
then offer an analysis that utilizes Critical Race Theory as an interpretive tool for examining the ways Taylor embeds meanings
of land ownership into the novel. In particular the following themes emerged: (1) inspiration and adoration, (2) entitlement
and privilege, and (3) freedom and security. The conclusion addresses the importance of applying Critical Race Theory to literary
studies as well as identifying ways to purposefully incorporate African American young adult historical fiction within today’s
classrooms.
In this article, the ownership of land as property is foregrounded although the term “property” is both literally and metaphorically
understood in Critical Race scholarship (Harris 1993). 相似文献
