Adults vary in how far they control what is talked about in interactions with children who are deaf. The evidence discussed in this article involves teachers and students in classrooms, but the same principles apply to interactions between children and parents, speech clinicians, or other clinicians. We analyze teacher communication in terms of four dimensions: power, repair, pace, and linguistic complexity. These features of teacher discourse are associated in that teachers who exert the most power (e.g., who ask frequent questions) also spend more time repairing students’ communication and exhibit a relatively rapid turn rate in discourse. Their language also exhibits fewer complex grammatical features. Students in communication with these teachers produce shorter utterances, ask fewer questions, offer less frequent contributions, communicate less often with peers, and show more signs of confusion and misunder-standing than they do with teachers who exert less power. We also discuss evidence that demonstrates that adults can change the way in which they manage conversations with children who are deaf in order to bring about more productive interactions. The implications of these findings for the development of linguistic competence in children who are deaf are explored.

This book challenges and reframes traditional ways of addressing many of the topics we have come to think of as social justice. Offering practical suggestions for helping both teachers and students think philosophically (and thus critically) about the world around them, each chapter engages with important themes through music making and learning as it presents scenarios, examples of dialogue with students, unit ideas, and lesson plans geared toward elementary students (ages 6–14). Taken-for-granted subjects often considered sacrosanct or beyond the understanding of elementary students, such as friendship, racism, poverty, religion, and class, are addressed and interrogated in a way that honors the voice and critical thinking of the elementary student. Suggestions are given that help both teachers and students to pause, reflect, and redirect dialogue with questions that uncover bias, misinformation, and misunderstandings that too often stand in the way of coming to know and embracing difference. Guiding questions, which anchor many curricular mandates, are used throughout in order to scaffold critical and reflective thinking beginning in the earliest grades of elementary music education. Where does social justice reside? Whose voice is being heard, and whose is being silenced? How do we come to think of and construct poverty? How is it that musics become used the way they are used? What happens to songs initially intended for socially driven purposes when their significance is undermined? These questions and more are explored, encouraging music teachers to embrace a path toward socially just engagements at the elementary level.

The classical Daoist textual corpus, while often treated as abstract philosophy, emerged from a tradition of teachers and students that was primarily based on a common set of meditative techniques, and goals. These techniques emphasized proper posture (aligning the body and keeping it still), breath cultivation (concentrating, patterning, guiding, relaxing and expanding the breath), the use of attention (focusing on the one or on the center), as well as a variety of apophatic training regimes designed to restrict or eliminate desires, emotions, thoughts, knowledge and sense perceptions and reveal a deeper reality known as the Way, believed to underlie these faculties. With time, a tradition emerged for viewing these self-cultivation practices as particularly beneficial for rulership, connecting the ruler to a correlative web of cosmic energies.

This article explores the way that principals understand the nature of the problems that deter schools from better accomplishing their missions. The views presented are those of approximately 40 elementary and secondary principals in two urban school districts in the Mid-Atlantic and Southwest regions of the United States. From the perspective of these principals, schools as organizational workplaces for administrators, teachers, and students are plagued by stress, frustration, and alienation. Although a multi-faceted and complex problem in itself, this organizational malaise is viewed as an outgrowth of an even more complex problem—a growing gap between the culture of the schools and the society of which they are a part. These observations emphasize the importance of examining the way in which organizational policies and procedures of schools and school districts impact upon the motivational needs of administrators, teachers, and students.

Este texto objetiva apresentar resultados de uma pesquisa que investiga os “usos” que os professores e os alunos fazem dos cadernos da realidade produzidos pelos alunos do curso de Licenciatura em Educação do Campo da Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo. Problematiza o modo como os usos desses cadernos expressam os currículos pensadospraticados. Utiliza, como aporte teórico-metodológico, o pensamento de Michel de Certeau (1994), Deleuze e Parnet (1977), Deleuze e Guattari (2015) e Lazaratto (2006; 2014). Aponta que os alunos fazem usos diversos dos cadernos: favorecer a memória, como indicam os textos que tratam desse instrumento; planejar suas ações; desabafar e fazer o pensamento movimentar, delirar, etc. Já os professores usam os cadernos para avaliar os processos de aprenderensinar e nos movimentos de invenções curriculares, pois acreditam que “uso” é poética, é invenção. Foi evidenciado ainda que os cadernos da realidade são agenciamentos maquínicos de desejo, ou seja, agenciamentos coletivos de enunciação que possibilitam movimentar o pensamento e abrir fissuras paradigmáticas. Afirma, assim, a necessidade de abrir/criar espaçostempos e redes de conversações para que professores e alunos possam dialogar sobre as escrileituras desses cadernos, a fim de ampliar e potencializar os processos inventivos dos currículos pensadospraticados na Educação do Campo.Palavras-chave: Cadernos da Realidade; Pedagogia da Alternância; Currículos pensadospraticados; Educação do Campo. ABSTRACT: This text aims to present results of a research that investigates the uses that teachers and students make of the notebook of reality poduced by the undergraduate students of the field of the Federal University of Espírito Santo. It problematizes the way in which the uses of these notebooks express the thoughtful curricula. It uses as a theoretical-methodological contribution the thought of Michel de Certeau (1994), Deleuze and Parnet (1977), Deleuze and Guattari (2015) and Lazaratto (2006, 2014). He points out that the students make different uses of the notebooks: to favor memory, as indicated in the texts that deal with this instrument; plan your actions; and to make the thinking move, delirious... The teachers use the notebooks to evaluate the learning processes and the movements of curricular inventions, because they believe that "use" is poetic, it is invention. It was also evidenced that the notebook of reality are machinic assemblages of desire, that is, collective assemblages of enunciation that make it possible to move thoughts and open paradigmatic fissures. It thus affirms the need to open /create spaces and networks of conversations so that teachers and students can talk about the writing of these notebooks, in order to broaden and enhance the inventive processes of the curricula considered in countryside education.Keywords: Notebook of reality; Pedagogy of Alternation; Thoughtful curricula; Countryside education.

AbstractAnalysis of the spatial elements of popular music recordings can be made by way of the ‘sound-box’, a concept that acknowledges the way sound sources are perceived to exist in four dimensions: laterality, register, prominence, and temporal continuity. By late 1972 producers working across a range of styles and in different geographical locations had adopted a normative positioning of sound sources across these dimensions. In 1965 no such norm existed. This article contextualizes the notion of the sound-box within academic discourse on popular music and explores the methodology employed by a research project that addressed the gradual coming-into-existence of the norm, which the project defined as the diagonal mix. A taxonomy of types of mix is offered, and a chronology of the adoption of the diagonal mix in rock is presented.

There are many aspects and aspects that can become the standard for the success or failure of an educational process. This aspect is usually present in the teacher as mentor, teacher and also on the side of students. One aspect that can be a barrier to the success of students in absorbing subjects from the teacher is the factor of communication that is not working effectively. Communication is very important considering that the educational process is currently directed into a room filled by teachers and students. In such conditions a two-way communication pattern is required, in order to create optimal interaction in each face-to-face between teachers and students, so that educational goals can be achieved. This paper will discuss the significance of teacher communication and its effect on student interest in learning.

In dealing with the 21st century EFL pedagogy where interculturality and multiculturality are promoted to be the crucial aspects of EFL learning, this study is oriented towards investigating Indonesian EFL teachers’ conceptualization of culture in EFL classroom. The conceptualization in this sense is emphasized on their knowledge construction underlying their teaching principles. This study was conducted qualitatively by engaging three Indonesian EFL teachers selected purposively. The data of this study were garnered from open-ended questionnaires and interview. Regarding the teachers’ conceptualization, this study revealed that culture referred to the way of living becoming the framework of language use since language per se referred to a social semiotic, and the framework of learning going on inter and intra-individually. In EFL learning, culture was viewed from its interculturality. Interculturality was supported although two teachers stayed in native-speakerism specifically for linguistic competence. This study is meaningful since it serves a set of contributive knowledge vis-a-vis culture in EFL learning for EFL teachers and curriculum developers. However, this study is still delimited on cultural conception. Further studies are expected to work on the practice of cultural conception to deal with the 21st century EFL learning in Indonesia.
