Cet article, à partir d’entretiens et d’observations auprès d’enseignants et d’élèves porteurs de troubles du comportement, propose une lecture clinique et didactique des obstacles rencontrés afin de ...démontrer que l’inclusion doit prendre en compte les besoins d’étayage des enseignants autant que les besoins éducatifs particuliers des élèves. Les auteurs convoquent les notions d’entre-deux et de transitionnalité ainsi que le concept de cadre sécurisé (externe) et sécurisant (interne). Car l’enjeu est bien de construire un contexte et une relation étayants pour des jeunes porteurs de troubles du comportement et pour les enseignants.
This article is based on interviews and observations of teachers in the one hand and kids with behavioural disorders in the other hand. The aim is to propose a clinical and didactical approach of obstacles within the classroom to demonstrate that inclusiveness requires to take into account special scaffholding needs for teachers as much as for students. Authors address an in-between posture and transitional phenomenon as key elements to offer secured learning situations and contexts. Inclusiveness at stake summons scaffholded frameworks to support learning processes for students and their teachers.
•Problem posing in the context of teaching for problem solving is explored.•International Mathematics Olympiad problems are used as resources.•The role of mathematical challenge in problem posing is ...pointed out.•Interaction with problem-posing experts is beneficial for teacher problem posing.•Pre-service teachers are capable of posing Olympiad-level problems.
Three teams of pre-service mathematics teachers were engaged in an assignment of designing teaching sequences aimed at empowering high-school students to understand solutions to International Mathematics Olympiad problems. The assignment was rich with problem-posing opportunities. The data – the sequences, posed problems and reflections – were analyzed in order to reveal the underlying structure of the participants' problem-posing experiences. The findings support two conclusions. First, problem posing in mathematics teacher education can be promoted a-didactically, as an implicit objective of an activity having teaching for problem solving as an explicit goal. Second, problem posing that requires pre-service teachers to cope with mathematics that is challenging for them, provides rich learning opportunities and can result in worthwhile posed problems.
This open access book provides teachers with approaches to strengthen reading comprehension instruction based on scientific research and evidence-based didactic principles. In this volume, the ...Progress in International Reading Study (PIRLS) framework is used to inform teachers about the skills and knowledge that students need to comprehend certain texts. The book gives practical guidance on how a teacher can help students to learn these skills, specifically, when teaching reading to multilingual students. Good practices from schools in five participating PIRLS countries—Chile, Chinese Taipei, England, Georgia, and Spain—are shared. A description of the schools’ education in reading comprehension is provided with practical tips and example lessons. These insights into daily reading education in multilingual classrooms across the globe can be an inspiration to teachers all over the world.
Metaphors and analogies play a very important role in human thinking and perception (Lakoff & Nu´nez; 2000) and we use them frequently when try˜ing to understand or explain complex concepts ...(Bjerregaard et al.; 1995). Hence, analogies to classical physics are often the method of choice in didactic approaches to teach modern physics. However, many of these modelsdescribe certain aspects of a phenomenon very well, but do no longer apply when describing the more complicated contexts of the phenomenon. Inconveniently, these models or analogies are very difficult to erase or substitute because of their apparent inbuilt logic and simplicity. Here, the aim was to investigate the role of such models and analogies when studying the basicsof NMR spectroscopy. Thereby, it was also explored whether alternative strategies to use models and analogies could be developed.
The successful implementation of Industry 4.0 initiatives can only be established by focusing on a multitude of complex and partially interdepending requirements and enabling factors. Thereby, the ...education and further training of employees can be seen as one of the major prerequisites to understand, handle, and further develop existing Industry 4.0 concepts and technologies. This paper reviews the current state of the art regarding the usage of learning labs, as modern teaching and learning methods, for industrial logistics engineering education from a holistic perspective. Moreover, the authors discuss learning within the framework of action-based learning approaches as a reflected form of meaningful social interaction and introduce an exemplary system-theoretical and constructivist approach based on the LOGILAB at the Montanuniversitaet Leoben.
This article deals with some aspects of teaching translation. This question has not received much attention not only in Ukraine, but in Translation Studies as a whole. The present study illustrates ...how linguistic and cultural divergences between source and target texts complicate the process of translation. The paper also investigates the concept of translator’s competence and emphasises the main professional skills of a good translator. The author analyses the most evident challenges of translation process, which are likely to provide a small clue for better teaching translation and provides some references to didactic approaches of the translation process, suggested by different authors. The article is composed of four main parts. The first part regards to the representation of the role of translator nowadays, as well as the complexity of the translation process. The second part briefly examines some translation difficulties, caused by linguistic and cultural differences between source and target texts. Linguistic and cultural divergences between French and Ukrainian texts are studied on the material of translation into Ukrainian “In search of a lost time” by M. Proust. The third part is a brief overview of translator’s competence. The article states that translator’s competence consists of different sub-competences, namely: linguistic, extra-linguistic, translation sub-competence and psycho-physiological one. The fourth part focuses on some approaches to translators’ training. Methods and activities recommended by professionals engaged in the education of future translators are described.
In the era of globalization, English communication for scientists and engineers whose native language is not English has become as important as their major related abilities. The paper describes the ...results of a four-year experience in the development of English for specific purpose manuals in the field of photogrammetry, interferometry, and GNSS technologies, as well as key teaching methods and didactic approaches used in class and out-of-class activities. The focus of the present study is to provide a detailed description of the development and systematic updating of a relevant manual, aimed at professional language training of learners. The findings of the study reflect the importance of an ESP course for scientists and engineers: conducting a needs analysis for carrying out a specific search of relevant and reliable authentic materials, defining proper teaching methods, software and didactic approaches used in the educational process to develop the language skills necessary to be active and contributive players in the competitive world.
