Interactional power and support in digital inclusion of an adult with intellectual disabilities: a case study analysis

Digital inclusion of people with intellectual disabilities is not commensurate with those without disabilities. Societal, political, financial, individual and interpersonal barriers help explain this disparity. Caregivers can act as both support and gatekeeper to internet access and use by adults with intellectual disabilities. This study investigated micro-level interpersonal factors influencing access and use of the internet by an adult with intellectual disabilities to explore the balance and interplay of power and support around the processes of digital inclusion and online risk taking. Taking a case study approach, perspectives of three key stakeholders were gathered via interviews: the person with intellectual disabilities, his mother and a paid support worker. Perspectives and experiences were contrasted using systemic functional linguistic analysis of discourse to explore the ways power and support were represented in the language of negotiated digital inclusion. Dynamics between the parent and person with intellectual disabilities and between the parent and paid staff clearly influenced processes of digital inclusion and were affected by varying priorities, positions and perceptions of power to allow, disallow and monitor access and use of the internet. These had the power to shape and drive internet access. Language choices by the person with intellectual disabilities showed that he was not fully aware of the risks involved in engaging with certain aspects of digital inclusion but how he spoke about the internet indicated some autonomy in technology use. Supporting the development of digital competence, confidence and resilience in people with learning disabilities should be combined with support to increase self-awareness regarding digital risk. Those supporting people with intellectual disabilities towards digital inclusion need additional guidance on how to do this effectively for the people they support.

改革开放40年我国中小学教材建设的成就、问题与应对

改革开放40年来,中小学教材建设取得了突出的成就。中国特色的教材管理体制基本形成,教材多样化的格局初见成效,教材立体化的体系初步构建,教材质量逐步提高,社会资源广泛参与教材建设,教材研究日益被重视。但需要高度关注的问题有:数字教材的管理与研究,国际学校教材的监管,对港澳台地区教材的关注,少数民族教材建设等。笔者认为,应该成立教材第三方评价机构,加强少数民族教材的开发与研究,建立和完善数字教材的管理规范,完善和落实对国际学校的课程与教材的监管制度,筹建教材资源中心和研究基地。     

Learning through digital storytelling: exploring entertainment techniques in lecture video

Although online education is popularized, it is in a developing stage that continues to struggle with communicating and engaging with students. The question remains on how students can be better engaged in online educational materials that are presented in asynchronous media, especially in lecture videos. Thus, using engagement theory, the present study explored how online lecture videos can be improved by incorporating entertainment education. Using a public lecture video found on YouTube, an online survey (N = 133) was conducted to identify digital storytelling techniques and their effects. Results revealed that these techniques that are often utilized in entertainment became meaningful components to increase student engagement and learning outcomes. However, they can also negatively affect instructor credibility, which could suggest the need to increase instructors’ skills. The implications for the development of lecture videos using entertainment and its potential to positively impact online education are discussed.

人民公社时期乡村治理模式透析

研究了人民公社时期的乡村治理模式,认为人民公社模式的产生具有内在根据,适应了把农民组织起来、巩固人民政权的需要,也有中国革命经验的惯性作用.人民公社模式在乡村治理方面实行“三级管理制度”的组织结构,基层生产大队也形成了党高度一体化领导的权力系统,采取计划取代市场的生产生活活动,导致公社社员全面依附公社.从整体上看,人民公社模式下的乡村治理,扭曲了农民的政治参与,激化了乡村社会矛盾,阻碍了乡村社会的正常分化,破坏了农业生产,影响了乡村文明的发展.
