Les grandes surfaces suivi de La logique du seuil ou la problématique de l’altérité dans Autoportraits de Marie Uguay et Nombreux seront nos ennemis de Geneviève Desrosiers

Les recueils de poésie Autoportraits de Marie Uguay et Nombreux seront nos ennemis de Geneviève Desrosiers appartiennent tous deux au genre de l’intimisme. Celui-ci est principalement caractérisé par une observation rapprochée du quotidien. Mon projet est constitué de deux volets : une recherche sur l’intimisme chez Uguay et Desrosiers, ainsi qu’un projet de création inspiré de leur poésie. Dans le volet recherche de mon mémoire, je me penche sur la logique du seuil et les rapports problématiques à l’altérité dans ces deux recueils. Dans Autoportraits et Nombreux seront nos ennemis, la position en retrait ou sur le seuil du « Je » permet d’observer ce qui l’entoure en conservant une perspective intime confortable où il ne se retrouve pas confronté à l’altérité. Les poèmes de la partie création de mon mémoire témoignent de l’inventivité dont le « Je » fait preuve afin d’échapper à son quotidien et sont empreints d’une perméabilité entre rêve et réalité. Le quotidien statique se présente comme un piège, un enfermement. La tension entre l’ici et l’ailleurs est exprimée dans les textes par une logique de l’attente; celle d’un nouveau départ et de la réalisation du rêve. Par cette pratique, je souhaite jouer avec les dangers de l’intimisme : ceux d’un narcissisme ou d’un sentimentalisme exacerbés.

The aim of this study is to examine how teachers view their teaching in civics in vocational programmes. The question formation are: in what extent civic teachers choose to connect the subject with the student’s future profession. Also how the teaching conditions in civics differ between vocational- and pre-university programmes. Lastly the study examines how the teachers experience that their teaching in civics has change since the upper secondary school reform in year 2011. The data was collected through nine interviews with teachers in civic who teach at vocational programmes in Jönköping municipality. The two theories used in the study is the motivational process and Kolbs learning styles. The result show that all the teachers choose to connect their subject with the students’ future profession. But in which extent the teachers choose to do it differs, depending on student’s wishes and the possibility of doing natural connections between the subject and the profession. The terms that differ between vocational- and preuniversity programmes civic lessions are the student’s motivation and how the students learn the best. The biggest change after GY11 is that the teacher’s feel that they have less time but as much material as before. They think it’s harder to do all the different parts of the course because they don’t have enough time. It’s also harder to individualize. The result consistently show that the teaching are most effected by which type of group the students consist of.

LITERATURA INFANTIL PARA UMA FORMAÇÃO LEITORA MULTICULTURAL

This essay aims at presenting some reflections on the compositional structure of two children literary works based on African-Brazilian theme and their implications on the elementary school reader’s background. The selected works are "The Little Kings of Congo" (2007), written by Edimilson Pereira de Almeida, and "Africa, my little Chaka" (2006) by Marie Sellier, and translated by Rose Freire D'Aguiar. Our basic principle is that, during the formative process in reading and culture, the structural organization of children's literature work comes as a factor that can trigger more or less interest from this reader under construction in the early grades. The educator who wishes to educate proficient readers should know and explore the structural, linguistic and contextual aspects from the literary text so the student can deduce their meanings. These studies are based on sociological aspects of reading, as Freire (2006) and Silva (1998), of culture in Hall (1997), of training reader through children's literature in Zilbermann (2003), Abramovich (1983), Aguiar and Bordini (1993), Cademartori (2009), Coelho (2000), among others. It is also bring into account that the school is the locus of ethno-racial diversity and the Afro-Brazilian children's literature, when present in this context and properly handled, can create opportunities to train children to be proficient readers; to give knowledge concerning the African culture and promote respect for differences, since the early school years.
