A new debate has arrived to the Education System. It deals with the need of an alternative teaching, an education that exceeds the academic traditions and studies the social relations, such as the relationship between media and society. Citizens must access an audiovisual teaching, because it is important to unders-tand how television, radio stations, newspapers, etc., work when they inform us, show us the culture or even build our dreams. People must know about the media’s economic and political interests, and also how the audience could make use of communication mass media.En el sistema educativo se ha abierto un debate acerca de la importancia de alfabetizar en otros sentidos que sobrepasan la tradición académica y que se adentran en el análisis de relaciones sociales contextualizadas, como puede ser la relación medios de comunicación-sociedad. Las autoras defienden que es importante que los ciudadanos accedan a una alfabetización audiovisual que les permita contar con recursos para entender el funcionamiento de los medios informativos y culturales como fabricantes de sueños, conocer sus intereses como empresas y poderes fácticos que son, captar sus estrategias de manipulación y persuasión, y comprender cómo nosotros, receptores, podemos utilizarlos.

The Relationship

Recent research in the social studies of stem cell science has demonstrated that there is (a) a significant global economy emerging around stem cell science, and (b) that individual states are competing fiercely in an effort to obtain leadership in this global stem cell economy. Over the last several years, the governments of the United Kingdom, China, India, Canada, Singapore and Australia (among others), have been attempting to leverage the process of innovation in stem cell science by implementing a variety of strategies including, but not limited to: dedicated funding programmes, the introduction of specific licensing systems, the implementation of new regulations for human cell-based material, emulating US-based venture capital, and encouraging entrepreneurship and spin-off developments. What remains to be seen though, is how effective such attempts actually will be in encouraging the commercial development of nationally oriented stem cell industries. Given that the relationship between innovation and commercialisation is unique to national and regional contexts, as well as unique to specific industries, this article discusses the specific strategies adopted in developing the stem cell industries in Australia and highlights some of the pros and cons with a government interventionist approach to developing global economic advantage from national and regional innovation.

The Relationship

Governments rarely aim at altering the way children view themselves. Yet, governments, culture, and social norms shape the social settings children find themselves in (i.e., the amount of ability stratification in the education system). Reviewing sociological, economic, and psychological literature we construct a theory that states that any macro influence which leads children to be schooled with peers of similar ability levels (ability stratification) will bias children’s academic self-concepts via larger Big-Fish-Little-Pond effects (the negative effect of school average achievement on academic self-concept). Applying meta-analysis to estimates derived from four cycles of the Trends in International Math and Science Study we test the hypothesis that the relationship between achievement stratification and the effect of school average achievement on academic self-concept will be large and negative. Findings strongly support our hypothesis (r < -.50).

This study aims to reveal the significance of cultural fairs as a material in the social studies course based on the importance of culture, cultural heritage, and cultural transmission. Culture is a crucial source of prosperity and identity of the nations. Nations maintain their presence through their cultural heritage and transfer these values to the next generations through cultural transmission. So, while the continuity of the culture is ensured, the cultural heritage is preserved. One of the ways to achieve this process is education. Within the education system, social studies course is an interdisciplinary course in which culture is handled with different dimensions. Cultural fairs conducted within the scope of this course are also a set of training in which various aspects of culture and cultural components are handled. In this context, the significance of the practice of cultural fairs as a material in the social studies course and its contributions to the field of education are examined in this study.

Teaching of social studies has basis of education dynamism that governments maintain to raise qualified and efficient citizens. That’s why; being examined programs in question has importance for the global citizen concept which comes up with globalization. Therefore, how to be raised efficient citizens who build both governments’ and world’s future is going to be determined. Turkey has chosen some countries as guides in education to keep up with globalization world standards. One of these countries is Finland. “Core Program” which is in force in the country is has been taken as basis in this study in which secondary education Social Studies curriculum occupying an important place in Finland education system is reviewed. Geographical and historical features and education system of the country are described (have been depicted shortly so as to ensure to be understood better the program in question. When we look at Finland education system in general, it can be said the tradition of sublimating the common objectives in Finland culture slows down the reflection of liability to bring individuality forward on implementation. School programs aims to equip the youth with knowledge and skills they will need in the social life naturally as well as aiming to transmit the basic values of Finland culture to the students. Equality of entire community is taken into consideration while doing this. Concerning available general program, it has been confirmed that general goals of “secondary education Social Studies curriculum” are to equip learners with talent to analyze current events efficiently and critically and prepare them to join social activities.

ABSTRACTThis paper analyzes the Wolfgang Klafki’s bildungstheoretische didaktik, and it’s role in the didactics of sciences. The problem is that a) the contents selected by professors for teaching science are disjointed from the historical, social and cultural contexts where knowledge is produced, and b) these contents have been chosen without taking into account its importance for the Bildung of a human being. My thesis is that Strong Programme should be included for research in didactics of sciences only if it responds to formative (Bildung) questions.RESUMENEl tema de esta investigación es la didáctica teórico-formativa de Wolfgang Klafki y su rol en la didáctica de las ciencias. El problema es que a) los contenidos que se seleccionan para la enseñanza de las ciencias están desarticulados de los contextos históricos, sociales y culturales de producción del conocimiento. Y b) estos contenidos se han seleccionado sin explicar sus aspectos formativos, esto es, sin tener en cuenta el sentido que éstos tienen para la formación (bildung) de los individuos. Como referente conceptual de este trabajo, el Programa Fuerte (SP) de la sociología del conocimiento científico (SSK) permite problematizar la formación científica, crítica y reflexiva de los futuros didactas y maestros. Su tesis central es que el conocimiento tiene un componente eminentemente social. Mi hipótesis es que el SP es el mejor enfoque disponible para las investigaciones en didáctica de las ciencias toda vez que responda a preguntas formativas. Esto permite que la didáctica, desde un enfoque teórico-formativo, contribuya a pensar en los propósitos de formación del ser humano.

The Relationship

This study investigated the relationship between classroom management skills, and self-confidence of social studies teachers. To this end and through a general survey, social studies teachers’ classroom management skills and their self-confidence for education were examined in terms of Gender, Professional Seniority, and Class Size. The population was constituted by 67 social studies teachers working in various secondary schools within the boundaries of the province of Elazig, Turkey, in the spring semester of the 2018 and 2019 academic years. The instruments used were a Personal Information Form, a Classroom Management Skills Scale and a Self-Confidence Scale for Education. The findings of the research were analyzed using SPSS (version 22) and revealed that the social studies teachers did not have a statistically significant difference in terms of both classroom management skills and levels of self-confidence for education related to variables of Gender, Professional Seniority and Class Size. On the other hand, it was found that there was a significant positive relationship between the classroom management skills and levels of self-confidence of the social studies teachers. The results are discussed within the framework of the relevant literature and the study concludes by presenting suggestions for future research.
