Children's responses to the interactivity of storybook apps in family shared reading events involving the iPad

This paper reports on some data on the effects of screen‐based interactivity on children's engagement with storybook apps during family shared book reading that were gathered in a 2‐year, small‐scale ethnographic case study in Spain. Data analysis focuses on the complex interplay between the storybook app's interactive features and the children's responses to them. Our findings show that interactive elements increase the child's autonomy, as they tend to promote the importance of the reader, positioning him or her as a collaborator, storyteller, an author or an internal character in the fiction; something that can materialise in exciting narrative strategies that can trigger powerful responses to digital literary texts in emergent readers, including playing, creating new fictions or engaging emotionally with the story. Finally, we argue that the Reader Response models that have been used over recent decades to understand children's reading experiences with storybooks need to be revised to better understand their current experiences with interactive texts.

On the elephant in the room: toward a generative politics of place on race in academic discourse

Abstract

In our conceptual essay, we draw on an exchange between a White scholar and a group of panelists on Critical Race Theory at an international conference. Taking up this exchange as our point of departure, we work in dialectical and multidimensional ways between the essentialized politics of place on race and critical anti-essentializing foundations in recent Critical Race Feminism and Critical White Studies’ literatures. Working the dialectics and multidimensionality of the place that race makes in academic discourse, we recognize and ethically work through the essentialized politics of place in advancing anti-essentializing understandings of race. In articulating these anti-essentializing understandings, our conceptual essay drives at the notion of a generative politics of place on race in academic discourse. A generative politics of place holds essentialized realities and anti-essentializing foundations of race in dialectical and multidimensional tension for teaching, learning, and discussing race in local, national, and international contexts.     

多元一体国家格局下的族群互动与身份重构——以丽江为研究个案

族群身份重构是在社会文化变迁、历史记忆重构、族群认同等多种历史文化因素共同作用的结果。明清以来,多元一体的国家格局的深化,促进了内地移民与丽江纳西族之间的文化互动与融合,推动了族群身份的重构与地方文化多样性发展,对纳西族的文化变迁及发展产生了积极意义。族群认同、身份建构与国家认同之间不是彼此消长、二元对立关系,而是彼此互构、辩证统一的关系。

教师“身份”的制度与文化根源及当下危机

从历史的角度考察,中国教师的传统身份是制度型构起来的,正是通过制度的型构,才逐渐形成民间尊师重教的习俗和传统。由于教育制度的变迁,目前教师传统身份正遭遇严峻的危机,甚至民间日常生活中的尊师习俗和传统也面临着“去根化”的危险。
