Author(s): Zdenka Šándorová / Language(s): Czech Issue: 20/2015

Early intervention and early support of the disabled child have functioned in the Czech Republic for many years. They have become a part of both the family support system and the policy for the disabled. Early intervention and support are an integral part of the local system of supporting families with disabled children or children endangered with disability. The presented study is aimed at presenting changes in the system of early support in the Czech Republic, its main assumptions and legal foundations, as well as at illustrating the activity of a selected institution of early support.

Pedagogiczny kontekst postrzegania człowieka starego i starości jako fazy życia przez kandydatów na nauczycieli edukacji wczesnoszkolnej

Author(s): Ewa Kochanowska / Language(s): Polish Issue: 17/2015

The following study aims to discuss a way of perception of old age by students of pedagogy, presenting their hopes and fears associated with the period of late adulthood. The surveyed students, as future teachers of early school education, will be responsible for shaping appropriate attitudes towards the elderly and old age as a natural phase of human life among children. In this context, regardless of professional and methodical training in the scope of preparing children to old age, the students’ attitude to the said phase of life and their way of understanding the tasks faced by teachers of early school education in preparing children for proper contacts and relationships with seniors performs a key role.

Cuteness and aggression in military picturebooks

Author(s): Bettina Kümmerling-Meibauer,Jörg Meibauer / Language(s): English Issue: 3 (34)/2016

As a subspecies of ideologically loaded picture books, this chapter focuses on military picture books. This term encompasses picture books dealing with war and the roles of soldiers. In the first part, taxonomy of military picture books is created which is exemplified by telling examples. The second part focuses on a particular narrative problem of military picture books that is of interest to a cognitive theory of picture books (as pursued by Kümmerling-Meibauer & Meibauer 2013). On the one hand, it is not possible to represent war as a good thing across the board; on the other hand, war is depicted with respect to certain scenarios of self-defense. The narrative solution seems to be that “cute” characters (that is, anthropomorphic animals and vehicles) are introduced who serve as positive military protagonists that have to fight against aggressive characters representing the enemy. In military picture books, there is a contrast between cuteness and aggression that is astonishing when regarding the typical pedagogical demands on the accommodation of picture books to the child’s cognitive abilities.

Oblici roditeljskoga glazbenog kulturnog kapitala i glazbena socijalizacija djece rane i predškolske dobi

Author(s): Željko Boneta,Akvilina Čamber Tambolaš,Željka Ivković / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 1/2017

Sociological research of the intergenerational transmission of cultural capital, inspired by Bourdieuʼs theory of cultural reproduction, has been frequent since the 1990s. The focus was typically put on the analyses of the influence of parental cultural capital on school-age children. This article examined the relationship be¬tween parental musical cultural capital and musical socialisation of the age group which has been overlooked in the previous research – children of early and preschool age. Bourdieuʼs thesis of three forms of cultural capital is operationalised in the field of music. While parents’ general and musical education were used as indicators of parents’ institutionalised musical cultural capital, parents’ and children’s musical engagement and parental musical education practice served as indicators of the embodied musical cultural capital. Family material musical resources used in the process of musical socialisation were utilised as indicators of the objectified musical cultural capital. The survey was conducted in 2013 on a sample of parents whose children attended kindergartens in the Croatian city of Rijeka (N = 342). In most families, the practice of performing musi¬cal activities with children and the possession of musical resources that enable these activities were frequent, but the children’s involvement in extracurricular music activities outside the kindergarten was very limited. Weak associations were found between parental education (general and musical), forms of parental musical educational practices and the possession of material musical resources. The transmission of the musical cultural capital was somewhat more strongly associated with the musical education of parents and the past or current parental musical engagement than with parental general education. In conclusion, musical socialisation of the children of that age does not have, in Bourdieuʼs sense, a distinctive function in the transmission of cultural capital. Instead, it takes place within the gendered pattern of care for the children of early and preschool age, where the mother is more engaged in all dimensions of (musical) socialisation than the father.

The role of contact and perceived attitudes of surroundings in children’s acceptance of “different” peers

Author(s): Jelena Maričić,Marko Mihalj / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2016

This study was conducted with Croatian fourth grade students (N=691) that were divided into two groups. The characters presented in vignettes had some type of stigmatizing feature (e.g., Roma nationality, wheelchair usage, or being overweight) in the experimental group, while these features were left out in the comparison group. The first goal was to examine the impact of each stigmatizing feature on the non-acceptance of the described characters. The second goal was to analyze the relationship between the non-acceptance of the stigmatized character and children’s established contact with people with similar features, as well as the relationship between the afore-mentioned and the perceived attitudes of parents and friends. Roma ethnicity had a significant influence on non-acceptance of the character, while contact was related to an increase in the level of non-acceptance of the Roma character. Negative perceived opinions of friends regarding individuals with stigmatizing features (regardless of the type) were related to a lower level of acceptance of that character.

Popkulturowa edukacja młodych Meksykanów. Wartości promowane w narkoballadach

Author(s): Monika Dubiel / Language(s): Polish Issue: 8/2018

Cel badań. Wyodrębnienie i omówienie wartości propagowanych w meksykańskich narkoballadach. Analiza wpływu, jaki wywiera przekaz zawarty w tych utworach na meksykańską młodzież oraz udziału narcocorridos w tworzeniu narkokultury.Metody badań. Przedmiotem badania było dziewięć tekstów meksykańskich ballad opowiadających o środowisku przestępczym tzw narcocorridos. Przeanalizowane one zostały pod kontem ich aspektu edukacyjnego. Wyodrębnione zostały archetypy, do których nawiązują oraz zidentyfikowane zabiegi formalne i środki artystycznego wyrazu mające na celu manipulację odbiorcami.Wyniki badań. W wyniku przeprowadzonej analizy udało się stworzyć wstępny katalog wartości najczęściej pojawiających się w tekstach narkoballad. Wyodrębnione zostały zarówno wartości przedstawiane przez autorów jako pozytywne, jak i te deprecjonowane.Ograniczenia badań. Głównym ograniczeniem jest długość artykułu niepozwalająca na przeanalizowanie więcej niż kilku tekstów narcocorridos. W przypadku gatunku, w ramach którego w każdym miesiącu pojawiają się setki, a może nawet tysiące utworów, analiza zaledwie kilku jest niewystarczająca i może zostać uznana za mało reprezentatywną.Zastosowanie badań. Wyniki zaprezentowane w niniejszym artykule mogą stanowić punkt wyjścia dla badaczy zainteresowanych edukacją popkulturową lub popkulturą meksykańską do bardziej wnikliwych badań nad zjawiskiem narcocorrido i jej wpływem na kształtowanie się życiowych postaw młodych Meksykanów.Wnioski. Wartości, które udało się odnaleźć w analizowanych tekstach zdają się być pozytywnym budulcem porządku społecznego, jednakże, jak wykazuje analiza tekstów piosenek oraz kontekstu ich powstawania, są one poddawane manipulacji i używane do celów gloryfikowania działalności przestępczej oraz propagowania rozwiązań siłowych.

Le numérique: enjeux de changements dans la formation continue des enseignants

Author(s): Lucile Boncompain / Language(s): French Issue: 1(HorsSer)/2019

A reality that remains one of the major challenges of educational systems is linked to the revolution engendered by digital technology: the technology of the tool and the control of the Internet. Studies (Credoc, 2015, 2017, Harris Interactive, 2017) showed that young people from primary school age use digital tools on an everyday basis. The openness to information on the Internet pushes education in a universal framework that exceeds the one of school but must be taken into account. In addition to the issue of technological knowledge in a context where it is constantly evolving, it is the question which faces the educational systems is the one to access information and knowledge, at school and out of school. This is an issue that we have tried to put into perspective in the light of recent studies and which refers at every moment to the question of teacher training. Who forms the man who trains man?

Adaptation du système scolaire d’éducation en territoires plurilingues : l’instance académique Française face à la situation des enfants allophones scolarisés à l’école primaire

Author(s): Michel Dispagne / Language(s): French Issue: 1(HorsSer)/2019

The article addresses an educational situation experienced by the actors of the education system and schoolchildren in French Guiana. They do not have French as their first language. They are allophones or the language of schooling is French. Teachers are Francophones and do not have mastery of the students' mother tongue. How to adapt teaching in these schools without rejecting mother tongue and French? Academic bodies have gone through a new educational policy, through the use of bilingual speakers in mother tongues and in French. The educational reality being complex, the reflection will progress in a heuristic approach to take the measure of the academic and territorial context subjected to an incessant and important migratory flow. The approach is based on a legal, legislative, experiential and theoretical framework. Some authors, practitioners and theorists have been summoned: Bruner, Piantoni, Meirieu, Heyer, Gauchet, and even more. Surveys were conducted with speakers in the mother tongue. As a result, the reality of the new learning mode in academy schools is in progress. There is a real taking into account of the identity of the students and a familiarization with the French language in the apprenticeships. The pair of teachers and speakers in the mother tongue is a device that works. The surveys reveal that despite the Master-Class system to professionalize them, the ILM do not perceive themselves as sufficiently autonomous for their mission. This reflection reinforced the idea that the reality of the territory remains a complex reality.

L’éducation en Roumanie pendant le communisme: principes, pratiques et excédents de la période de transition

Author(s): Vlad Ovidiu Cioacă / Language(s): French Issue: 1(HorsSer)/2019

The present article aims to synthesize the most important characteristics of the education system in communist Romania (1948-1989) and the dysfunctions that characterized the state of this system in the first decades after the fall of the old regime. We will analyze, for a start, the theoretical-ideological premises of the socialist-communist education (paternalism, centralism, uniformity, correlation with the sphere of production, etc.), and then we will exemplify, by means of empirical data and by resorting to the works of important exegetes, the evolutionary directions, the strengths and weaknesses of education in Romania during the communist period. At the same time, we have proposed a review of the educational policies adopted by the communist governments and of the dimensions that the education crisis has foreshadowed in the Romanian society since 1989.

Rewards and Punishments Applied in the Family Environment of Early Education Students

Author(s): Daria Sikorska / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2015

It may be presumed that in the upbringing process the most compromising attitude is that supported by the use of both positive and negative reinforcements. In the pedagogical aspect, rewards and punishments are measures consciously applied in educational work, their aim being to trigger change in the behaviour of a young person.Rewards and penalties applied in the upbringing process allow human behaviours to be enhanced positively or negatively. A reward informs about success: the person then does not have a reason for changing their behaviour. A punishment informs about failure, makes one revise one’s actions and change one’s behaviours, although it may also decrease the power to aim for achievement. The aim of this article is to present parents’ opinions on the application of rewards and punishments in the family environment of early education students.

Students receive randomly chosen test questions on their mobile devices or personal computers at irregular intervals of time and have a time limit to answer them.

Fenomen dzieciństwa w kontekście edukacyjnym. Myśląc z Walterem Kohanem

Author(s): Grzegorz Barth / Language(s): Polish Issue: 11/2019

The article aims to show how our understanding of childhood, thinking and time determine our values, understanding and educational practices. In its basic structure, it includes five well-known terms: childhood, education, philosophy, time, and thinking, which demand rethinking, both individually and in their interrelationships. Each of these terms is developed in the course of our reflection. To achieve this goal, the article focuses on the work of Walter Kohan, whose contribution to contemporary philosophy of education is important and original. In key terms in the field of philosophy of education, Kohan describes education as childish (philosophy for children). Kohan develops his views on education in dialogue with many philosophers and educators. Through a series of questions, Kohan problematizes the pedagogical and political value of placing philosophical practices in the field of civic education in the context of childhood. In this way, he creates conditions for responsible education.

Difficulties in articulation of sounds are common in speech and language therapy field. Their therapeutic approaches must be individualized The psycho-individual and age-specific features, as well as the characteristics of the type and degree of a certain disabilities, make speech therapy a unique, original, specific process.Through the present research we wanted to highlight the uniqueness of the speech therapy sessions, as we follow the classic approach, we can give a specific note to the activities carried out by innovative methods, techniques and means of teaching applied to a distinct category of pupils, those with intellectual disabilities.The research methodology include the purpose, objectives, research hypotheses, the research approach and the description of the group of participants, emphasizing the description and the usefulness of the " Paşi prin lumea sunetelor " application both as an assessment and as an intervention too The accurate identification of psycho- motricity difficulties with consequences on the language at children with intellectual disabilities integrated in compulsory general education is an important aspect which the entire process of integration depends on. It is a complex process which requires the usage of a whole set of probes which include the level of early – learning of the language and which can contribute at the creation of a whole complex portrait, with links to the psycho – motricity and communication abilities of the child, but also to the establishing of the objectives in what concerns the correction and the development of these abilities. In the first part of the article theoretical topics regarding psychomotricity, language, intellectual disability and the integration into compulsory general education of children with intellectual disability are studied , and in the second part the scientific research is presented after going through three stages: the discovery stage in which we put into practice methods with the purpose of of knowing the individual level of psycho motricity and the level of language development (four students presenting psycho motricity and language difficulties were selected ) the experimental stage which was concerned with the development of case – studies and individual action ( the process of the action was structured as a complex therapy of action, but also as some therapy – learning activities, each instrument being put into practice on every part of language regarding the development of child ‘ s abilities in the next areas: psycho motricity, language and communication, knowledge, socialization ) ; final which consisted of going again through the evaluation tasks which were applied in the discovery stage in order to underline the involvement of psycho motricity on the language and so, checking the research hypothesis.
