少数民族双语教育的双重性特征探析——读《文化变迁与双语教育:凉山彝族社区教育人类学的田野工作与文本撰述》

滕星撰写的《文化变迁与双语教育:凉山彝族社区教育人类学的田野工作与文本撰述》对凉山彝族社区学校的彝汉双语教育进行了田野调查和民族志撰写,并从教育人类学的立场对彝族社区文化变迁和双语教育的关系进行了理论探讨。本书从认识论上给我们提供了关于少数民族双语教育双重性特征的启发和思考:(1)少数民族双语教育的目标是传承民族文化与融入主流社会的统一;(2)少数民族群体对双语教育的认识存在工具性和情感性两大视角;(3)在少数民族双语教育实践中既要重视群体的文化传承,也要关注个人的发展需求。"多元文化整合教育"是实现少数民族双语教育中国家利益、民族利益和个体利益协调发展、共生共荣的重要理论视角。     

Promoting Ego Development and Multicultural Competence During Internship

This research involved an exploratory intervention to determine the effectiveness of using a deliberate psychological education (DPE) approach that incorporated issues of ethics, multicultural competence, oppression and diversity. The study attempted to discern if the DPE model used could make a difference in the promotion of ego development (which subsumes moral development) and multicultural knowledge and awareness of counselor interns. The intervention group showed significant gains compared to comparison groups in ego development as measured by the Washington University Sentence Completion Test (WSCT) (Loevinger 1985) as well as significant gains on the Knowledge subscale of the Multicultural Counseling Knowledge and Awareness Scale (MCKAS, Ponterotto et al. 2002).     

The impact of a prejudice-prevention television program on young children’s ideas about race

Two studies investigated whether children’s television programs that were produced to decrease racial prejudice had the intended positive effect on young children. Study 1 measured 60 White 5- and 6-year-old children’s attitudes toward Asian, Black, and White stimuli prior to, and immediately following, a brief, one-time anti-prejudice television program. No significant change was observed. Study 2 assessed the attitudes of 30 White 3–6-year-old children toward Asian, Black, Hispanic, and White stimuli at the beginning and end of a 3-week intervention period. During the intervention period children watched a pro-diversity television program four times. Plot and anti-prejudice message comprehension was assessed at three time-points during the testing period. Participants improved on plot and message comprehension over time, but no change in ideas about race was evidenced (children indicated a strong pro-White bias at both pre- and post-test). Possible reasons for, and implications of, this lack of change are discussed.     

The note of discord: Examining educational perspectives between teachers and Korean parents in the U. S.

This study examined and compared the educational perspectives of Korean parents of elementary school students and their teachers. 430 parents and 143 teachers in the New York metropolitan area participated in the survey and 16 teachers, administrators, and parents were interviewed. The findings indicated that the teachers not only misunderstood the parents' perspectives on the goals of schooling, but also underestimated the parents' ways of supporting their children's education. Regarding the current school/teacher practices, the two groups also expressed different perspectives. We discussed the urgency of educators' critical reflection on diverse cultures and the considerations for increasing parents' school involvement.     

多元文化背景下的传统抉择与革新——论台湾“表演工作坊”相声剧的美学路向

"表演工作坊"相声剧所由诞生的特殊土壤,使其在叙事结构、角色设置等方面,体现出多元文化背景下现代台湾人身份认同的困境;在主题上则高度关切对中国文化传统的追寻与赓续,并在技术上实验多种传统艺术形式,以此作为从困境中突围的努力方向。台湾相声剧充分汲取民族艺术的养分,用现代剧场观念改造相声这一古老的说唱艺术,不仅开发了民间曲艺的现代潜力,而且出于对传统文化的自觉传承,充分借用古典文学的艺术手法开展技术革新,从而造就了一种超越于一般民俗艺术的文人化的高级艺术形态。

Culturally-inclusive behavior of Filipino teachers in international schools in the Philippines: Perspectives of international education in a developing country

The study explored the culturally inclusive behavior of Filipino teachers using information culled from interviews of six Filipino teachers in international schools on their perception of international education, and how it translates into their pedagogy. The findings of the study reveal inherent patterns of behavior the teachers manifest in handling a multicultural classroom, the factors that affect them as well as the unique dynamics that play out in the interactivity between teachers from a developing country and foreign students from a more economically affluent nation. The study brings to the fore an underlying challenge in the handling of international education by non-western developing countries such as the Philippines and at the same time contributes further to the context of established theories on international education such as the Diversity Pedagogy Theory of Sheets (2005).     

GOLEM,FROM PRAGUE TO CYBERSPACE: THE USE OF CSCL IN CULTURAL EDUCATION FOR DIASPORAS

In this paper we describe and theorize about a computer‐supported and mediated educational research project which encourages cultural production and sustainability. We first describe the CD‐Golem project which was developed in light of the perceived needs of a Diaspora community's attempts to impart its youth with a sense of belonging and continuity. Next we characterize Cultural Education and discuss the theoretical rationale of our approach in the context of current theories of identity and cultural construction, multicultural education and computer‐supported collaborative learning. We conclude by reviewing briefly and evaluating critically some of the lessons we have learned in our first years of activity.
