In this article, we challenge the common liberal assumption that religious schooling undermines the goals of liberal civic education, making it impossible for children to acquire tolerance, critical reasoning skills, or personal autonomy. As a framework for this argument, we respond to some of the claims made by Harry Brighouse in his recent book, School Choice and Social Justice , arguing that the liberal fear of religious schooling, as reiterated by Brighouse, is largely unwarranted. Rather, religious parents and religious schooling can offer children an education that promotes tolerance and critical reflection and that encourages and supports their future autonomy. Key words: school choice, civic education, social justice, liberalism Dans cet article, les auteurs contestent l’hypothese liberale courante voulant que les ecoles confessionnelles nuisent aux buts de l’education civique liberale en empechant les enfants de devenir tolerants, capables de raisonnement critique ou d’autonomie. Dans le cadre de leur argumentation, les auteurs repondent a certaines des affirmations de Harry Brighouse qui, dans un recent ouvrage intitule School Choice and Social Justice , avance que la peur liberale de l’enseignement religieux est largement injustifiee. Au contraire, les parents qui ont des convictions religieuses et les ecoles confessionnelles offrent aux enfants une education qui prone la tolerance et la reflexion critique et qui encourage et favorise leur autonomie future.

在这篇文章中,我们挑战了普遍的自由主义假设,即宗教教育破坏了自由公民教育的目标,使儿童不可能获得宽容、批判性推理技能或个人自主权。作为这一论点的框架,我们对哈里·布里格豪斯(Harry Brighouse)在他的新书《学校选择与社会正义》(School Choice and Social Justice)中提出的一些主张做出回应,他认为布里格豪斯重申的自由派对宗教教育的恐惧在很大程度上是没有根据的。相反,信教的父母和宗教学校可以为孩子们提供一种促进宽容和批判性反思的教育,鼓励和支持他们未来的自主权。关键词:择校、公民教育、社会正义、自由主义、自由主义、自由主义、自由主义、自由主义、自由主义、自由主义、自由主义、自由主义、自由主义、自由主义、自由主义、自由主义。作者的观点是,作者的观点是,哈里·布里豪斯(Harry Brighouse)的观点是,作者的观点是,最近出版的《学校选择与社会正义》一书是,作者的观点是,《自由主义的观点》是,作者的观点是,最大的不公正。与此相反,父母更倾向于信仰,宗教信仰,学校更倾向于忏悔,孩子更倾向于犯罪,教育更倾向于宽容,更倾向于反思,更倾向于批评,更倾向于鼓励,更倾向于自主的未来。格言:选择,公民教育,社会正义,自由主义

Using data from the reading component of the Ontario Secondary School Literacy Test (N = 113,050), the effects of gender and curricular track for nine sub ‐ scores of reading achievement were investigated. Only students indicating that they did not receive additional programming support were included in the analysis. Gender accounted for less than one per cent of variance in reading achievement. Gender differences for each curricular track were in the close ‐ to ‐ zero and small range. The results suggest that any observed differences may be of little practical consequences, and that the notion of under ‐ achievement of boys’ reading achievement has been greatly overstated.

This study investigates the relationship between the number of students with special needs (designated as exceptional or receiving special education services) in grade‐3 classrooms in 1997‐1998 and their achievement scores in reading, writing, and mathematics on Ontarioʹs provincial assessment with their peers without special needs. When the variance due to differences in class size and socio‐economic status was removed, the correlations between the number of students with special needs and the average class achievement scores were slightly, but significantly, positive (.05 to .07), suggesting that the presence of students with special needs does not adversely affect achievement of other students.

In this article, we explore the models of literacy conveyed by contemporary secondary career education policies, programs, and imperatives in the province of Ontario. The Ontario career education policies we reviewed uniformly advance a functional and socially reproductive model of literacy that undermines the democratic agency of learners.

Eight non‐Aboriginal school counselors, who temporarily lived in Nunavut to provide services to Inuit clients, were interviewed regarding changes in their sense of self and their racial/cultural identity as a result of cross‐cultural immersion. They were also engaged in an arts‐based exercise where they pictorially represented perceived self‐changes. Analysis of counsellors’ narratives of their experiences in Nunavut and their art work revealed an increasing awareness of their “Whiteness” and their participation in the colonizing culture. The counsellors also displayed changes in cultural worldview that directly paralleled the socio‐centric and eco‐ centric nature of the Inuit culture, precipitating culturally sensitive counselling practice.

It reflects on the swathe of populist discourse centring on boys, and on literacy, that drives a potentially divisive education agenda. In providing more nuanced analyses of the debates surrounding the disputed territory of boys, literacies, and schooling, the article offers examples of disaggregated literacy test data to demonstrate the importance of adopting a “which boys” and “which girls” approach to the issues.

There has been abundant research examining how early life experiences affect achievement. In this article, we investigate the transition from elementary to junior high school at a developmental stage where numerous changes have an impact on students. Using nationally representative survey data, we found no differences in academic achievement between students who transitioned to grade seven from an elementary school in comparison to those who remained in the same school. We did find a significant decline in mathematics achievement between grade five and grade seven for children, regardless of their transition status. We present a developmental, rather than environmental, explanation.

In this qualitative study, that took place in a coeducational government school in Western Australia, I adopt a social ‐ constructivist perspective of learning (Rogoff, 1990; Vygotsky, 1986) to examine reading in an elementary classroom. The focus of this article is Nicholas, a grade ‐ 7 boy, who was identified as challenged by the literacy curriculum. The analysis utilizes a multiliteracies framework (The New London Group, 2000) and the four resources reading model (Luke & Freebody, 1999) to interpret Nicholas’ progress during reading circles. Results suggest that multiliteracies, which interweave scaffolding, diverse texts, and meaningful tasks, can encourage agency for student learning. Key words: literacy identity, scaffolding, reading, pedagogy of multiliteracies, reading resources model, socio ‐ economically disadvantaged students, school literacy ‐ assessment Dans cette etude quantitative, qui a ete menee dans une ecole gouvernementale mixte en Australie ‐ Occidentale, l’auteure adopte un point de vue socioconstructiviste sur l’apprentissage (Rogoff, 1990 ; Vygotsky, 1986) en vue d’analyser l’aptitude a la lecture dans une classe du primaire. L’article porte essentiellement sur Nicholas, un garcon de 7e annee, aux prises avec des difficultes par rapport au programme de litteratie. L’analyse fait appel a un cadre de multilitteraties (The New London Group, 2000) et a un modele de lecture axe sur quatre ressources (Luke & Freebody, 1999) en vue d’interpreter les progres de Nicholas au cours des cercles de lecture.

在这项定性研究中,我在西澳大利亚的一所男女同校的公立学校进行了研究,我采用了社会建构主义的学习视角(Rogoff, 1990;维果斯基(Vygotsky, 1986)对小学课堂阅读的研究。本文的焦点是尼古拉斯,一个七年级的男孩,他被认定为识字课程的挑战。该分析利用多元素养框架(The New London Group, 2000)和四资源阅读模型(Luke & Freebody, 1999)来解释尼古拉斯在阅读圈中的进展。研究结果表明,多种读写能力,包括脚手架、多种文本和有意义的任务,可以促进学生学习的能动性。关键词:文化身份、脚手架、阅读、multiliteracies教育学、阅读资源模型,地理社会经济弱势的学生,学校地理素养评估在这个定量,练习曲,疾病menee在一个学院gouvernementale mixte en Australie高Occidentale l 'auteure adopte观点socioconstructiviste联合国关于l 'apprentissage(罗格夫,1990;维果斯基(1986)在《分析者的能力》一书中说:“我的能力是一种阶级性。”文章描述了尼古拉斯的基本要素,他说:“我认为这是一件非常困难的事情,我认为这是一件非常困难的事情。”L 'analyse fait appel a un cadre de multilitites (The New London Group, 2000)和a un modele de lecture axe sur quatres resources (Luke & Freebody, 1999) en vue d 'interpreter les progress de Nicholas au courses des cles de lecture。“多语”是“多语”,“多语”是“多语”,“多语”是“多语”,“多语”是“多语”,“多语”是“多语”,“多语”是“多语”。关键词:文学,学生,讲座,多文学教学法,高等教育,文学评价,学院
{"title":"Scaffolding, Multiliteracies, and Reading Circles.","authors":"W.

The focus of this article is Nicholas, a grade ‐ 7 boy, who was identified as challenged by the literacy curriculum. The analysis utilizes a multiliteracies framework (The New London Group, 2000) and the four resources reading model (Luke & Freebody, 1999) to interpret Nicholas’ progress during reading circles. Results suggest that multiliteracies, which interweave scaffolding, diverse texts, and meaningful tasks, can encourage agency for student learning.
