L’APPRENTISSAGE TOUT AU LONG DE LA VIE AU PRISME DE L’ÉDUCATION À L’ENVIRONNEMENT ET AU DÉVELOPPEMENT DURABLE : REPRÉSENTATIONS ET ANALYSE DISCURSIVE AU SEIN DE LA COMMUNAUTÉ ÉDUCATIVE

Author(s): Amina COURANT MENEBHI / Language(s): French Issue: -/2020

It is recognized that education makes men more free. Our world is currently experiencing unprecedented fundamental upsets: health, technological, climatic, demographic, economic, etc…, which pose new challenges for the future of work and for humanity as a whole. These global megatrends have a profound impact on skills that are likely to quickly become obsolete. Lifelong learning concerns us all. It starts from early childhood to the end of life. Today, everyone is concerned with knowledge, especially since the digital revolution makes knowledge more accessible to all generations. When the Lifelong learning was adopted as a fundamental concept of the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG), the purpose of it was not only quality education but also sustainable development. According to UNESCO, education for the environment and sustainable development (EEDD) is a holistic and transformational education that aims to be transdisciplinary depending on the specific socio-cultural and territorial contexts and their relationships with the outside world. Since its independence, Morocco’s efforts in the field of education have been indisputable, even if these remain insufficient, given demographic pressure, the high dropout rate and the need to support various technological advances. Our article attempts to highlight how certain actors in the educational community (teachers, school directors) decline the EEDD within their cognitive space, through personal experiences, extra-curricular activities, through their own experience, through formal and informal learning and use it to carry out sustainable projects. It mainly questions the correlation between the EEDD and the ATLV and is based on a qualitative survey based on semi-structured interviews as well as field observations in 11 Moroccan primary schools.

THE TEACHER – MAIN ACTOR IN THE KNOWLEDGE SOCIETY

Author(s): Vali Ilie,Ecaterina Sarah Frăsineanu / Language(s): English Issue: -/2020

We live in a world in continuous transformation, mainly characterized by an informational explosion as well as an aspirational one. This can arouse interest, send to searches and constructions, but it can also create confusion. Therefore, the man needs stable benchmarks. Children and young people need support and guidance. The roles of the teacher are about to be rethought, not so much from the perspective of their change, but from the point of view of adapting to the new demands. The concept of education for the knowledge society starts to be formed in the second half of the 20th century. During this period, the change of the entire educational system of the society is taking place. To effectively promote the development of the knowledge-based economy, it must be understood that information is a factor of production (as well as labor, land and capital). The process of globalization coincides with a fundamental transition to the informational society - a new global information-based community.

AN ANALYSIS OF PLANT BLINDNESS IN TURKISH TEXTBOOKS USED AT THE BASIC EDUCATION LEVEL

Author(s): Berat Ahi,Volkan Atasoy,Sibel Balci / Language(s): English Issue: 2/2018

The importance of plants is not as clearly understood as that of animals. This lack of attention is called “plant blindness” and is considered one of the most important problems in biology education. Textbooks do not put much emphasis on plants and, therefore, they may contribute to plant blindness. In this research, ten textbooks used for teaching at the basic education level in Turkey were analyzed for plant blindness using the document analysis method. The words and photographs associated with plants and animals were analyzed. The data analysis did not find any evidence that could lead to a conclusion of plant blindness based on the text and photos of these textbooks. However, if the number of plant and animal species covered is increased, and more words and photos are used to introduce these species, children will become more familiar with plants and animals. Besides textbooks, other educational tools can be analyzed in terms of plant blindness to expand on the related literature.

DEĞER EĞİTİMİ PERSPEKTİFİNDE ÖĞRETMEN ROLÜ

Author(s): Seren ZÜMRÜTKAL,Halis Adnan Arslantaş / Language(s): Turkish Issue: 50/2021

Values reflect the lifestyle of the people who make up society. In order to move confidently into the future and create a virtuous generation, learning values must be carried out systematically and effectively, without leaving it to chance. An understanding in which only mental and psychomotor skills are given to students throughout their education life will cause individuals who create the society to not have affective skills such as interests, attitudes, values, etc. Therefore, the formation of social unity and solidarity and the determination of common goals will become difficult or even impossible. The current situation requires values education to be carried out in schools as part of a plan and program. This can only be achieved through the assimilation of subjects and concepts related to the education of values by teachers and administrators. Teachers who view values as part of their roles definitely influence student value judgments.

DEVELOPING READING SKILLS IN CHILDREN WITH LEARNING DIFFICULTIES

Author(s): Nicoleta Ramona Ciobanu / Language(s): English Issue: 1/2020

Language gives the preschooler autonomy and the ability to move easily in the environment. Acquiring from preschool age the ability to communicate with others, to express intelligibly their thoughts, ideas, impressions, the child forms a basis for school work and social life later. In the instructive-educational process, language represents a means of communication, but also a means of knowledge, because through it knowledge is transmitted and the horizon of children with new representations is broadened. Through language, the child transmits his own needs, requirements, elaborates and communicates his own thoughts, manifests his joys and sorrows and organizes his activities. The better he learns to speak, the easier it is for the child to be educated. Using language, the child can think, analyze, compare, classify and draw conclusions about problems that need to be solved. The level of the child's intellectual development has an important role both in establishing the causes of the disorder, and especially in the recovery process. Language disorder worsens over time, with repercussions on behaviour and personality if not corrected. The appearance of language disorders does not automatically imply the existence of intellectual or sensory disorders. All of these disorders can be removed through a specific recovery program. The duration of the recovery process depends on the level of the child's intellectual development, his personality, his age, the parents' collaboration with the speech therapist, the existence of other disorders, the degree of involvement of the child in the therapy.

Educational Relationships and Interactions

Author(s): Oana Mariana Ciuchi / Language(s): English Issue: 25/2020

Given that the topic proposed by this paper is widely debated by both the sociology of education and the management of the classroom, as disciplinary branches of education, this is a synthetic approach from both disciplinary perspectives of the types of relationships and interactions which are outlined in the educational institutions and in the educational environment. Considering the context of the multiple challenges and socio-political changes to which the Romanian education system has had to adapt, in the recent decades, it is found that the interpersonal relationships and interactions established between educational actors are true “sources” and “resources” that ensure its functionality.

Niewypowiedziane naruszenia więzi i emocji, czyli o kryzysach zapisanych w ciele. Znaczenie choreoterapii w redukcji napięć emocjonalnych

Author(s): Aleksandra Pyrzyk-Kuta / Language(s): Polish Issue: 55 (2)/2020

This article discusses bodily aspects of emotional crises and crises of interpersonal ties. The analysis is based on the sociological theory of emotions by Thomas J. Scheff and Suzanne Retzinger, who emphasized the importance of interpersonal ties for the resolution of conflicts and for successful coping with difficulties. Every emotion has its own motor equivalent in the body, which records and stores traumatic experiences and broadly understood conflicts together with the resulting stress. If the accumulated emotions are not released, the body may get sick, which is why psychological interventions must be combined with parallel work on the body. Case studies, which constitute an important part of the author’s research, show the significance and effectiveness of choreotherapy, which, in combination with other treatment methods, helps to resolve crises and reduce emotional strain.

The study is aimed at finding the varieties of appealing spheres for realization of students’ potential in higher school. The authors substantiate and develop the concept of attractors for students’ self-realization, which designate the appealing spheres and forms of manifestation of students’ personal efforts and capacities in higher education. The methods of conceptual-applied reconstruction and psychological surveys are used to determine the attractive space for students’ self-development. The study identifies a group of potentially attractive spheres (learning-cognitive, research, sports-wellness, volunteer, artistic-creative, innovative-entrepreneurial, information-media, social-civic, sphere of cross-cultural communication). The study presents the results of diagnosing the subjective significance of these spheres for students of different specialties and different levels of self-realization in education. The conclusion is made about the tendency of influence of students’ involvement in attractive spheres on the success of their self-realization in educational environment. The prospects of applying and operating the category of attractors as socio-cultural predictors of successful self-realization and psychological well-being of students in the process of University training are shown.
