The purpose of this case study was to examine the why the English language learners (ELLs) in the Beaufort County, South Carolina school system have been so successful. This school system has recently experienced a boom in its ESL student population, and this population has performed very well on standardized tests. This study used critical theory as its theoretical framework and examined why the students have been successful rather than marginalized in Beaufort County schools. This phenomenon was investigated using semi-structured interviews with the ESOL Coordinator for Beaufort County, 4 ESL-lead teachers, and 6 mainstream teachers. Data were collected using semi-structured interviews with Sarah Owen, the Beaufort County ESOL, Gifted and Talented, and World Languages coordinator. Based on the results of her interview, 4 themes emerged that were used for the semi-structured interviews with ESOL and mainstream teachers. The interviews centered on the themes of ESL policy, ESL leadership, and teacher training. The ESL and mainstream teacher interviews also revealed several subthemes that included teacher attitude, why Beaufort County has been successful with the ELLs, and the teachers’ recommendations for other schools systems trying to successfully accommodate a large ESL student population in mainstream classrooms. The findings from the teachers’ interviews revealed that additional training for the teachers without ESL experience helped them become comfortable instructing ELLs. This training should be conducted by the ESOL teachers for those without ESOL certification or endorsement. As the teachers had more training, they had better attitudes about teaching ESOL students in their classes. Finally, those who utilized the additional ESOL training and ESOL accommodations saw better student achievement in their classes. Based on the finding of this study, the researcher proposed a model for other school systems to follow in order to replicate the success of Beaufort County’s ELLs. The implications of this study focus on other schools systems and why ELLs are not obtaining the same level of success as those in Beaufort County’s schools. Finally, recommendations for further research are provided.

Taking the literary theories of Mikhail Bakhtin as a starting point, the authors offer three gendered readings of a postmodern advertisement for Moët & Chandon champagne. They commence with a discussion of the influence of gender on textual interpretation; continue with an outline of Bakhtin's key concepts, with particular reference to gender; present three contrasting readings of Moët's postmodern advertisement; and conclude with a discussion of their interpretations together with some reflexive reflections on the gender agenda. Though not claiming to offer a comprehensive introduction to Bakhtin, they do try to exemplify, in a quasi-carnivalesque mode of exposition, something of the character of that supremely gifted thinker and to demonstrate the insights his concepts provide in relation to gendered readings of advertising texts.

Successive moral panics have cast poor or socially excluded mothers - associated with social problems as diverse as crime, underachievement, unemployment and mental illness - as bad mothers. Their mothering practices are held up as the antithesis of good parenting and are associated with poor outcomes for children. Marginalised Mothers provides a detailed and much-needed insight into the lived experience of mothers who are frequently the focus of public concern and intervention, yet all too often have their voices and experiences overlooked. The book explores how they make sense of their lives with their children and families, position themselves within a context of inequality and vulnerability, and resist, subvert and survive material and social marginalisation. This controversial text uses qualitative data from a selection of working class mothers to highlight the opportunities and choices they face and to expose the middle class assumptions that ground much contemporary family policy. It will be of interest to students and researchers in sociology, social work and social policy, as well as social workers and policymakers.

Compulsory education laws oblige primary and secondary schools to give each pupil positive encouragement in, for example, social, emotional, cognitive, creative, and ethical respects. This is a fairly smooth process for most pupils, but it is not as easy to achieve with others. A pattern of pupil, home or family, and school variables turns out to be responsible for a long-term process that may lead to a pupil’s dropping out of education. A systemic approach will do much to introduce more clarity into the diagnosis, potential reduction and possible prevention of some persistent educational problems that express themselves in related phenomena, for example low school motivation and achievement; forced underachievement of high ability pupils; concentration of bullying and violent behaviour in and around some types of classes and schools; and drop-out percentages that are relatively constant across time. Such problems have a negative effect on pupils, teachers, parents, schools, and society alike. In this address, I would therefore like to clarify some of the systemic causes and processes that we have identified between specific educational and pupil characteristics. Both theory and practice can assist in developing, implementing, and checking better learning methods and coaching procedures, particularly for pupils at risk. This development approach will take time and require co-ordination, but it will result in much better processes and outcomes than we are used to. First, I will diagnose some systemic aspects of education that do not seem to optimise the learning processes and school careers of some types of pupils in particular. Second, I will specify cognitive, social, motivational, and self-regulative aspects of learning tasks and relate corresponding learning processes to relevant instructional and wider educational contexts. I will elaborate these theoretical notions into an educational design with systemic instructional guidelines and multilevel procedures that may improve learning processes for different types of pupils. Internet-based Information and Communication Technology, or ICT, also plays a major role here. Third, I will report on concrete developments made in prototype research and trials. The development process concerns ICT-based differentiation of learning materials and procedures, and ICT-based strategies to improve pupil development and learning. Fourth, I will focus on the experience gained in primary and secondary educational practice with respect to implementation. We can learn much from such practical experience, in particular about the conditions for developing and implementing the necessary changes in and around schools. Finally, I will propose future research. As I hope to make clear, theory-based development and implementation research can join forces with systemic innovation and differentiated assessment in educational practice, to pave the way for optimal “learning for self-regulation” for pupils, teachers, parents, schools, and society at large.

Zelfbeeldvorming is een levenslang proces en vindt plaats in de sociale context. Het zelfbeeld wordt gevormd op basis van zelfreflectie en sociale vergelijking en staat onder invloed van verschillende factoren. Het zelfbeeld is belangrijk voor de zelfregulatie en heeft invloed op het psychologisch welzijn. Door een asynchrone ontwikkeling wijkt de ontwikkeling van hoogbegaafden af van de gangbare patronen. Hoewel wordt gedacht dat hierdoor een adequate en positieve zelfbeeldvorming problematisch is, is hiernaar nauwelijks onderzoek gedaan. Dit kwalitatieve onderzoek is een eerste verkenning naar levensloopontwikkelingen in het zelfbeeld van personen die op volwassen leeftijd als hoogbegaafd zijn geïdentificeerd. De ontwikkelingen worden daarnaast in verband gebracht met het psychologisch welzijn. Acht personen, die op volwassen leeftijd als hoogbegaafd zijn geïdentificeerd, werden tijdens een diepte-interview uitgenodigd hun levensverhaal te vertellen. De levensverhalen werden geanalyseerd volgens een narratieve analysemethode. Levensloopontwikkelingen van hoogbegaafden in dit onderzoek kunnen het best kunnen worden begrepen vanuit het samenspel van de aan- en afwezigheid van belemmerende en bevorderende factoren, de kwaliteit van sociale interacties, individuele persoonskenmerken en de opeenstapeling van levenservaringen. In verschillende levensfasen staan zelfbeelden centraal die betrekking hebben op sociale rollen in de betreffende levensfase en de sociale eisen die daaruit voortvloeien. Variëteit hierin is afhankelijk is van de levensomstandigheden en de opeenstapeling van levenservaringen. Persoonlijke levenservaringen beïnvloeden de manier waarop men zichzelf begrijpt en naar zijn verleden, heden en toekomst kijkt. De betekenis die men geeft aan de eigen hoogbegaafdheid is afhankelijk van de mate van inadequatheid van het zelfbeeld vóór de identificatie en de persoonlijke opvatting over hoogbegaafdheid. Voor sommigen is de identificatie cruciaal voor de vorming van een adequaat zelfbeeld en een solide identiteitsvorming. Na de identificatie als hoogbegaafd staan zelfbeelden met betrekking tot persoonlijkheidskenmerken verbonden aan de hoogbegaafde identiteit, emotionaliteit en autonomie op de voorgrond. De mate waarin deze op de voorgrond treden is afhankelijk van de betekenis die men geeft aan de eigen hoogbegaafdheid. Bij alle deelnemers zijn zelfbeelden met betrekking tot de sociale interactie, zelfsturing, persoonlijke ontwikkeling en zelfontplooiing gedurende de gehele levensloop belangrijk. Onder invloed van veranderingen in het zelfbeeld gedurende de levensloop neemt het psychologisch welzijn toe op de domeinen zelfacceptatie, autonomie, grip op de omgeving en persoonlijke groei en voor een enkeling op het domein levensdoel. In verhouding tot deze welzijnsdomeinen neemt het welzijn op het domein positieve relaties met anderen matig toe. Dit heeft te maken met de onconventionaliteit van de deelnemers, waardoor men niet in de sociale context past en te maken heeft met (zelf)stigmatisering en een negatieve benadering door anderen.

John Milton’s sojourns in Rome (1638-9) are attested by his comments in Defensio Secunda, by the minutes of the English College, by Latin encomia which he received from Roman academicians, and, not least, by his Latin letter to Lucas Holstenius (19/29 March 1639), and several Latin poems which he composed in the course of his residency in the capital city: Ad Salsillum, and three Latin epigrams extolling the praises of the virtuosa soprano, Leonora Baroni. Read together, these texts serve to reveal much about Milton’s participation in, and reaction to, the ‘Puissant City’, (History of Britain, Bk 2).
The present monograph presents fresh evidence of Milton's integration into the academic and cultural life of seventeenth-century Rome. It argues that his links with two Roman academies: the Accademia dei Fantastici and Accademia degli Umoristi constitute a sustained participation in an academic community paralleling that of his independently attested performance in Florentine academies (on which I have published extensively). It also investigates his links with Alessandro Cherubini, David Codner, Giovanni Batista Doni, and the Baroni circle hymned in three published anthologies.
Chapter 1: Milton and the Accademia dei Fantastici investigates the cultural climate surrounding Milton's Ad Salsillum by examining two of that academy's publications: the Poesie dei Signori Accademici Fantastici di Roma (Rome, 1637) and the Academia Tenuta da Fantastici a. 12 di Maggio 1655 (Rome, 1655), the latter celebrating the creation of Fabio Chigi as Pope Alexander VII on 5 April 1655. Read in a new light, Milton’s self-fashioning, it is argued, takes its place not only alongside Salzilli’s encomium in Milton's honour, and his Italian sonnets in the 1637 Poesie, but also in relation to other poems in that collection, and the academy's essentially Catholic eulogistic trend. The chapter also provides fresh evidence of Salzilli’s survival of the illness described in Milton’s poem by his epistolary correspondence with Tomaso Stigliani.
Chapter 2: Milton and the Vatican argues for links between Milton’s Latin letter to Holstenius and a range of Holstenius’ published works: his edition of the axioms of the later Pythagoreans gifted by him to Milton, and his published neo-Platonic works. This is achieved by mutual appropriation of Similitudes in a series of Miltonic similes, the anabasis/katabasis motifs in a reworking of the Platonic theory of the transmigration of souls, and allusion to etymological details highlighted in Holstenius’ published editions. The chapter also reveals Milton’s alertness to typographical procedures and, by association, to Holstenius’ recent role (1638) as Director of the press of the Biblioteca Vaticana.
Chapter 3: Milton and the Accademia degli Umoristi argues for Milton’s likely participation in this Roman academy, as suggested by his links with its members. His three Latin epigrams in praise of Leonora Baroni, the only female member of the Umoristi, have hitherto been studied in relation to the 1639 Applausi in her honour. In a new reading, Milton, it is suggested, invokes and interrogates Catholic doctrine before a Catholic audience only to view the whole through the lens of a neo-Platonic Hermeticism (by echoing the phraseology of the sixteenth-century Franciscan Hannibal Rosselli) that refreshingly transcends religious difference. Crucially, the hitherto neglected L’Idea della Veglia (Rome, 1640) includes further encomiastic verse, sonnets to, and by Leonora, and details of the conversazioni hosted by her family at the precise time of Milton’s Roman sojourns. Milton may well have been a participant. The chapter concludes in an assessment of his links with the youthful prodigy Alessandro Cherubini, and of his audience with Francesco Barberini.
Chapter 4: Milton at a Roman Opera analyses the potential impact of ‘Chi Soffre, Speri’, which he attended on 18/28 February 1639, mounted by Francesco Barberini to inaugurate the recently completed theatre of the Palazzo Barberini. A detailed analysis of the opera's libretto, music, and theatricality casts a backward glance to Milton's Comus, and a forward glance to Paradise Lost. It also assesses Milton’s musical interests at this time, as attested by his links with Doni, and his purchase of works by Monteverdi and others.
Chapter 5: Milton’s English Connections in Rome develops the work of Miller and Chaney by investigating Milton’s co-diners at the English College in Rome on 30 October 1638, and by analysing his links between David Codner (alias Matteo Selvaggio), and the family of Jane Savage, Marchioness of Winchester, lamented by Milton in 1631. It also assesses his potential relations with the Englishman Thomas Gawen, who ‘accidentally sometimes fell into the company of John Milton’ (Antony Wood).

Studien syftar till att ge insikt i lärares kunskaper och erfarenheter kring särbegåvade elever, samt lärares möjligheter att identifiera dessa elever. Den tidigare forskningen som ligger till grund för studien visar att det är en tydlig skillnad mellan högpresterande elever och särbegåvade elever. Den tidigare forskningen diskuterar också olika personlighetsdrag hos särbegåvade elever och hur man identifierar dessa, samt lärarens betydelse för dessa elevers utveckling i skolan. Baserat på tre intervjuer av lärare kan man se att erfarenheter och kunskaper inom området särbegåvning skiljer sig åt hos lärarna, något som forskningen också poängterar. Vidare visar också resultaten att de undersökta lärarna har vissa svårigheter med att identifiera särbegåvade elever, samt att skilja dessa från högpresterande elever. Den tidigare forskningen, tillsammans med resultaten från denna studie, visar att individanpassad undervisning tydligt måste förankras i skolan för att skolan skall lyckas med sitt uppdrag med att stimulera alla elever och låta alla elever utvecklas. Utan kunskaper inom området särbegåvning hos lärarna visar studien att den svenska skolan inte kan lyckas med att vara ’ en skola för alla’.

Children live at a time when the rapid turnover of information and the ongoing changes in the technological, social, cultural, political and economic spheres make it more difficult for teachers to prepare lessons that enhance students’ interest and motivation. There is so much to be learnt outside of the classroom’s four walls that traditional methods of teaching may not be the most effective way to teach today’s learners. When it comes to classes of Portuguese language, teachers are faced with the challenge of teaching culture, literature, grammar and skills such as reading, writing and speaking in a way that involves students as active participants, that is, in a way that engages while also instructing. It means that several strategies need to be adopted, from games to the use of new technologies or, among others, an interdisciplinary approach with maths, (social) sciences and arts, for instance. In an attempt to motivate gifted and talented children that were attending elementary school in a small town near Viseu, in Portugal, The School of Education of the Polytechnic Institute of Viseu was asked to be part of a project in 2013, in a collaborative partnership that proved successful and that was re-enacted in 2015. It is in light of the above that, in this paper, we aim to: a) describe the support that the School of Education provided to these participants, children who were between six and fourteen, by presenting Portuguese language activities that intended to stimulate creative thinking and artistic production; and b) discuss the results of the project, by analysing the students’ productions across verbal and visual modes (ie. script writing and dubbing an excerpt of an animation film, interviews, news reports, drawings, the creation and recitation of poems…). Future activities are on the table, meaning that the School of Education’s commitment to feeding the students’ creativity has shown promising results. Creativity in Portuguese classes is not a guarantee of success but it certainly is food for thought.

Esta investigação foi realizada no âmbito do Doutoramento em Educação, na vertente de Educação e Interculturalidade, tendo como título “A educação intercultural na aula de Português no 3º Ciclo do Ensino Básico”. O principal objetivo foi não só o de conhecer as representações e práticas docentes relativamente à diversidade cultural nas turmas de 3º ciclo do Ensino Básico dos Agrupamentos de Escolas e das Escola Não Agrupadas da freguesia de Arrentela, - concelho do Seixal, península de Setúbal -, como também propor uma “matriz sociocultural” para a disciplina de Português no 3º Ciclo do Ensino Básico e aplicá-la a turmas alvo, permitindo verificar se a mesma propicia uma maior e efetiva participação de todos os alunos, contribuindo para o seu sucesso educativo. Esta investigação alicerçou-se no quadro teórico da educação para a cidadania intercultural, nomeadamente na educação intercultural e no modelo coorientacional de Byram. Este trabalho tomou a forma de estudo de caso, tendo-se recorrido ao paradigma quantitativo e qualitativo, tornando-os complementares na recolha de dados. No decorrer desta investigação, efetuou-se um processo de investigação exploratória, tendo-se realizado pesquisa documental para uma breve caracterização da Península de Setúbal, do concelho do Seixal, da freguesia de Arrentela. Fez-se um levantamento de dados sobre a diversidade cultural das escolas com 3º ciclo do Ensino Básico desta freguesia e sobre o insucesso dos alunos no exame de Português de 9º ano. Utilizou-se, ainda, um inquérito por questionário a vinte e um docentes do grupo 300 que lecionaram Português no 3º ciclo do Ensino Básico das escolas supra mencionadas, nos anos letivos 2011/2012, 2012/2013/ 2013-2014 (alguns dos quais ainda lecionam), para conhecer as representações docentes e práticas letivas recorrentes em escolas pluriculturais. A análise dos primeiros dados recolhidos por inquérito por questionário demonstrou que, para os docentes inquiridos, o objetivo primordial da educação intercultural é a abertura e aproximação ao Outro. No que concerne as práticas letivas, há uma preocupação dos professores em aproveitar uma parte do manancial e da riqueza da diversidade cultural das turmas heterogéneas, nomeadamente na prática da leitura/escuta, (re)escrita, na divulgação de textos enriquecedores entre cultura(s), na comparação entre culturas, na promoção de atividades colaborativas, nas atividades integrando a cultura de origem ou de herança. Verificou-se ainda que os materiais privilegiados na sala de aula são maioritariamente os manuais escolares e a compilação de textos emanados pelas editoras de livros escolares. Uma vez que os manuais escolares não contemplam muitas culturas, os docentes utilizam, em menor percentagem, textos de todo o género que permitem a comparação entre culturas, uma atitude crítica e a descentração. Relativamente à colaboração entre alunos, esta é essencialmente realizada através do trabalho de pares, enquanto a cooperação entre escola/comunidade é desenvolvida sobretudo por exposição e eventos escolares abertos à população e por atividades que podem ser corealizadas por alunos e Encarregados de Educação e/ou seus familiares. Como causas para a não implementação da educação intercultural nas aulas de Português, os inquiridos denunciaram fatores fulcrais como a ausência de formação adequada e de materiais didáticos e pedagógicos adequados ou o comportamento dos alunos, entre outros. Posteriormente, foi produzido e aplicado um inquérito por questionário a três turmas heterogéneas escolhidas (7.°, 8.° e 9.° anos) para sua posterior caracterização. Após esta etapa, foram recolhidos e selecionados materiais e atividades pedagógicos que foram integrados numa proposta de “matriz sociocultural” (Costa Afonso, 2002) aberta a modificações, transversal a outras disciplinas, baseada nas diversas identidades socioculturais dos alunos presentes em sala de aula, alicerçada, por um lado, essencialmente, no domínio da educação literária, por outro, na ponte que deve ser, continuamente, estabelecida entre escola/ comunidade local/ comunidade global. Nesta proposta é visível a preocupação na procura de textos literários canónicos, cujos conteúdos culturais permitam o contacto com a alteridade, com outras cosmovisões capazes de promover, por um lado, a desconstrução de preconceitos, estereótipos, do racismo e/ou suas manifestações, por outro, proporcionar a compreensão, a valorização crítica de culturas, a consciencialização da necessidade de liberdade, criatividade e reflexão crítica na criação de um mundo mais justo e na sustentação de um estado democrático. Aquando da aplicação experimental da “matriz”, envolvido nas interações comunicacionais interculturais propiciadas pelos materiais e atividades/projetos subsequentes, o discente assumiu o papel de sujeito sociocultural crítico, cidadão ativo e responsável. Da aplicação experimental foi efetuado um registo dos acontecimentos mais pertinentes. Outras sugestões de atividades/projetos foram veiculadas.

Black students are consistently overrepresented in categories of academic underachievement. Parent engagement has long been touted as an effective strategy for improving the educational outcomes of Black children. However, most parent engagement research reflects deficit based perspectives frame Black parents as problems that must be fixed or mitigated before they can positively contribute to their children’s education. Consequently, parent engagement research and frameworks ignore the perspectives of Black parents and the assets they use to participate effectively in parent engagement. In this case study, I draw on individual and focus group interview data, documents, and observations, to examine how fifteen Black families, collectively known as FACE: 1) define and participate in parental engagement, 2) experience barriers to and opportunities for engagement, and 3) experience benefits of engagement for their children and their own personal development. Guided by Black Feminist and Critical Race Theories, I show how Black families in this study used a myriad of engagement strategies to improve their children’s educational experiences which were invisible to schools and how they used school-sanctioned engagement activities to meet their own objectives. Ultimately, I argue that school-centered parent engagement frameworks and models are ineffective for empowering Black families and accounting for the essential ways that these families contribute to the well-being of their children. Based on my findings, I discuss implications for theory, practice and policy, and research, and make recommendations for a more family-centered approach to parent engagement.

The academic achievement of African American adolescents is a national concern for educators and researchers especially since current reports depict the underachievement of African American students as continuing to lag behind their European American peers. Determining what factors within the school environment that contributes to the achievement gap and how it can be reduced remains an important issue in alleviating disparities seen in educational achievement and attainment. This study examined the relation between characteristics of the close friendships of high-achieving African American adolescents and students’ identity development and motivation in school. Data were collected from 217 high-achieving African American students within 10th to 12th grade from 5 public and private high schools. Each student self-reported on their ethnicity, gender, parents’ education level, grade, FARMs, GPA, perceived teacher support (emotional, academic, and instrumental support), their perception of their ethnic identity, and their perception of their achievement values. Through the use of nomination procedures, students also identified their close friends and responded to questions concerning how supportive (emotional, academic, and instrumental support) they each were. Results from multiple regression analyses showed that the provision of instrumental support from close friends related to the exploration process of the high-achieving students’ ethnic identity. In addition, there was a strong relation between the ethnic identity of close friends and that of the individual. Furthermore, although friend support was not a significant predictor of achievement values, demographic (mother’s education level, grade, and FARMS) and control (teacher support) variables predicted students’ importance and utility of school respectively. These findings add to the literature on age and socioeconomic status as they relate to student’s motivation to achieve. Overall, this study provides some evidence highlighting ways in which close friendships might relate to the self-development of high-achieving African American adolescents. This study provides a starting point for additional ways in which to explore how peer processes relate to the academic behaviors of high-achieving African American adolescents.

Black boys are confronted with unique educational circumstances. They are often misdiagnosed and misplaced into special education programs (Bush-Daniels, 2008; Patton, 1998; Terman et al., 1996). Additionally, they are less likely to be enrolled in gifted and talented programs, even if their former achievements reflect their aptitude to succeed (Black Alliance for Educational Options, n.d.; Moore & Flowers, 2012). Given these statistics, a considerable emphasis has been placed on the causes and the consequences of low/under achievement for this population. As a result, the experiences of Black males who are achieving have been greatly neglected. Moreover, little is known about the factors that facilitate academic achievement among high-achieving Black boys. In an effort to bring the heterogenic nature of schooling experiences for Black boys to light, the present study examined the influence risk and protective factors had on the academic experiences of high-achieving Black boys. Grounded in the risk and resilience framework and the Integrative Model for the Study of Minority Youth Development, this study explored whether the high-achieving Black high school boys in this sample (n =88) reported experiencing discrimination (i.e. academic-based) and how this academic-based discrimination related to their 1) academic performance (i.e. GPA), 2) perceptions of math ability, and 3) race-based academic self-concept. In addition to exploring how academic-based discrimination was linked to academic achievement, this study examined how cultural resources such as racial socialization messages and racial identity related to academic achievement. Specifically, cultural socialization, preparation for bias, egalitarianism, private regard and public regard were evaluated alongside the three academic outcomes under study. Finally, the study explored whether aspects of racial socialization or racial identity buffered the effects of discrimination on any of the outcomes. Interestingly, the race/ethnicity of the student mattered for how students perceived their math ability. The risk factor academic-based discrimination was linked to academic performance. Cultural resources cultural socialization, preparation for bias, and private regard were linked to various academic outcomes of interest. There was only one significant moderating effect: a high private regard buffered the relationship between academic-based discrimination and race-based academic self-concept. Limitations and implications of this study are discussed.
