Benefits for immigrant-origin and nonimmigrant-origin youth of discussing immigration in gender and sexuality alliances

In a time of unprecedented polarization in the United States, particularly concerning immigration, schools are uniquely positioned to help students understand the consequences of drastic policy changes. Beyond formal settings such as social studies classes, extracurricular activities may be important for fostering discussions about sociohistorical and policy issues. Such discussions could serve to empower youth from marginalized populations and raise their critical consciousness. Yet the potential outcomes of discussions in these extracurricular settings have not been studied in depth. Using data collected in school-based Gender-and-Sexuality-Alliances (GSAs) throughout Massachusetts during the periods leading up to and following the 2016 US Presidential election, we examined whether discussions of immigration issues in GSAs were associated with greater empowerment and critical consciousness among 580 youth (M _Age = 15.59, range = 10–20 years). Multilevel structural equation models showed that the frequency with which youth discussed immigration, relative to their fellow members, was positively associated with residualized change in perceived peer validation for members in general and with residualized change in hope for immigrant-origin members only. Contrary to our expectations, we did not find significant associations for critical consciousness. Findings suggest how groups addressing issues of equity and justice can promote members' empowerment.     

影视导演学研究述评

随着国内普通高校编导类专业的大量开设,关于影视导演学的研究愈发迫切。国内外相关研究已取得了很大的成绩,国内集中在影视导演理论和导演观念、导演方法和模式、导演基础知识和教学研究、学生导演潜质等方面的研究;国外则在影视导演技术和导演技巧方面成绩卓著。所存在的问题主要表现为,或偏重于戏剧导演的研究,或研究缺乏完整性系统性等问题。对其进行回顾与梳理,有助于推进新媒体环境下影视导演学的研究,有助于普通高校编导专业的开展,具有较强的理论和实践意义。     

体育电影的边界与类型

基于体育电影学科的构建需要,提出体育电影的边界与类型问题。运用类型研究的方法对体育电影的内涵与外延进行划定。体育电影与政治、经济、种族、阶级等相邻领域关联,形成体育电影的边界;在内部,体育电影主要由三种类型构成:体育科教片、体育纪录片、体育故事片,三种影片类型在体育电影中早已存在,并以各种特征完成对体育本质的诠释与表达,而在新技术条件下,类型之间则通过交叉与融合推动整个体育电影的形式创新,从而彰显体育以及电影的魅力。     

论成长电影中的人性假设及其对学校教育变革的启示——以《死亡诗社》、《蒙娜丽莎的微笑》为例

从教育学视角分析电影《死亡诗社》和《蒙娜丽莎的微笑》发现,成长电影往往蕴含着倡导变革和阻碍变革两种力量,两种力量的代表者们所预设的人性生成、教化机制截然不同,对教育变革结果的判断也大相径庭。比较这两种冲突力量可知,倡导变革的力量所持人性假设及其教育变革实践,更有益于当今学校教育改革;其与阻碍变革的力量所产生的冲突表明,人性的自由是争取的自由,真正的教育是唤醒和引领人的自我意识,教化人性的活动难以成败论英雄。     

Global competition in a ‘flat’ world: a Foucauldian analysis of the neoliberal mentalities of 2 Million Minutes

Through an application of Foucauldian theories of power and neoliberalism, this article employs an ascending analysis to identify an embedded neoliberal agenda within the documentary 2 Million Minutes. The author argues that this neoliberal agenda serves to support and maintain notions of international white supremacy as it assumes relationships between whiteness and success, American identity and privilege, and through its definition of the global economy as one in which all students can equally take part. By articulating how the film engages in techniques of biopower through a comparative portrayal of high school students from India, China, and the United States, the author argues that representations of education ‘realities’ should be examined and questioned in order to locate powerful and hidden hegemonies.
