Neste estudo, objetiva-se compreender como os espaços e tempos promovidos por uma estrutura organizacional e metodológica alternante potencializam situações que levam os educandos a conhecer, refletir e autorregular seus processos formativos. Tal direcionamento parte de uma problemática estabelecida pelas seguintes questões: (a) que elementos/situações os educandos mobilizam diante de uma estrutura organizacional e metodológica alternante, que lhes demanda o papel de sujeito ativo e protagonista do seu processo formativo? (b) Mediante quais condições as estratégias que a escola dispõe na sua organização metodológica alternante potencializam pensamentos e conhecimentos metacognitivos nos educandos? Para dar conta dessas interrogações, a pesquisa se caracteriza como um estudo de caso de tipo etnográfico, desenvolvido com jovens secundaristas no âmbito do Instituto Educar, sendo adotados como procedimentos de investigação a observação participante, a análise documental e o grupo focal. Esses delineamentos se amparam em bases teórico-conceituais sobre cultura e aprendizagem (POZO, 2002), narrativa, cultura e externalização (BRUNER, 2001) e metacognição (FLAVELL, 1979). Os resultados evidenciam que os espaços e tempos promovidos pela estrutura organizacional alternante mobilizam os educandos à experiência participativa, à construção de projetos de vida que ensejam democracia e autonomia e à ampliação das práticas culturais de suas comunidades. Com relação aos processos que levam os educandos a conhecer, refletir e autorregular a própria formação, evidenciou-se que as possibilidades de avanços cognitivos decorrem da sua participação em coletivos, sendo que é mediante a cooperação entre os pares que as estratégias formativas podem ser potencializadoras de pensamentos e conhecimentos metacognitivos.Palavras-chave: pedagogia da alternância; educação do campo; metacognição; narrativas.Formative strategies and metacognitive processes in the context of Alternance PedagogyAbstractThis study intends to comprehend how the spaces and times promoted by an Alternant organizational and methodological structure enhance situations that lead the learners to know, reflect and autoregulate its own formative processes. This targeting starts from a problematic stablished by the following questions: (a) which elements/situations the leaners mobilize when an Alternant organizational and methodological structure demand them the active subject role as the protagonist of their own formative process? (b) in which conditions the strategies that schools have in its Alternant methodological organization enhance the metacognitive thinking and knowledge in learners? To answer these questions, the research became a ethnographic case study, developed with high school students from “Instituto Educar”, in which the adopted investigation procedures were the participant observation, the documental analysis and the focal group. These outlines are sustained by theorical-conceptual basis about culture and learning (POZO, 2002), narrative, culture an externalization (BRUNER, 2001) and metacognition (FLAVELL, 1979). The results show that spaces and times promoted by the Alternant organizational and methodological structure engage the learners to the participative experience, to build life projects aiming democracy and autonomy to enlarge the cultural practices on their communities. Regarding the processes that lead the learners to know, reflect and autoregulate its own formation, the study has shown that the possibilities of cognitive advances are result of their own collective participation, being that is through the peer cooperation that the formative strategies can enhance metacognitive thoughts and knowledge.Keywords: alternance pedagogy; countryside education; metacognition; narratives.Estrategias formativas y procesos metacognitivos en el contexto de la Pedagogía de la AlternanciaResumenEn este estudio, se pretende comprender cómo los espacios y tiempos promovidos por una estructura organizacional y metodológica alternante potencian situaciones que llevan a los educandos a conocer, reflejar y autorregular sus procesos formativos. Tal orientación parte de una problemática establecida por las siguientes cuestiones: (a) qué elementos/situaciones los educandos movilizan ante una estructura organizacional y metodológica alternante, que les demanda el papel de sujeto activo y protagonista de su proceso formativo? (b) ¿En qué condiciones las estrategias que la escuela dispone en su organización metodológica alternante potencian pensamientos y conocimientos metacognitivos en los educandos? Para dar cuenta de estas interrogantes, la investigación se caracteriza como un estudio de caso de tipo etnográfico, desarrollado con jóvenes secundarios en el ámbito del Instituto Educar, siendo adoptados como procedimientos de investigación la observación participante, el análisis documental y el grupo focal. Estos delineamientos se amparan en bases teórico-conceptuales sobre cultura y aprendizaje (POZO, 2002), narrativa, cultura y externalización (BRUNER, 2001) y metacognición (FLAVELL, 1979). Los resultados evidencian que los espacios y tiempos promovidos por la estructura organizacional alternante movilizan a los educandos a la experiencia participativa, a la construcción de proyectos de vida que dan democracia y autonomía ya la ampliación de las prácticas culturales de sus comunidades. Con respecto a los procesos que llevan a los educandos a conocer, reflexionar y autorregular la propia formación, se evidenció que las posibilidades de avances cognitivos derivan de su participación en colectivos, siendo que es mediante la cooperación entre los pares que las estrategias formativas pueden ser potencializadoras de pensamientos y conocimientos metacognitivos.Palabras clave: pedagogía de la alternancia; educación del campo; metacognición; narrativas.

In this fast paced world, computer and internet use have automatically become an essential part of metropolitan life. It is easy for those who were born in the older generation to notice the impact of computers and internet on themselves, but what about this young generation of Thai teenagers who are growing up in a computerized generation? What computer-related behavioral aspects do these teenagers find to be unique for their generation? In seeking the answer to this question, this study aims to explore six different areas. Topics of discussion concern: (1) Thai teenagers define their computerized generation; (2) The computerized generation’s daily life activities; (3) The symbolic meanings of computers and the feelings of being in cyberspace; (4) Characteristics and concepts Thai teenagers use to identify as computer and internet-related influences on their generation; (5) Responding to common false myths concerning teenagers and computer use in Thai society; (6) Foreseeing their future living with computers and advance technologies. Data were collected from among sixty male and female high school students, age 16-19, in four different public schools in Bangkok. Anthropological research methods, namely participant observation, survey questionnaire, and in-depth interviews were utilized in order to achieve these study objectives.

In the world of K–12 education, the growing numbers of dropouts are a major concern. This article examines the dropout rates of Chinese and Vietnamese high school students. Using logistic regression analysis, this article examines the influence of ethnicity, gender, and socioeconomic status (SES) on dropout rates. The distinct contribution of this analysis lies within the intraethnic comparisons within the Asian American student population and its use of longitudinal data. The results of the study support existing research that gender and SES are related to dropout rates. Moreover, an interesting interaction between ethnicity and SES exists.

In this article I discuss how illegal substance consumption can act as a tool of resistance and as an identity signifier for young people through a covert ethnographic case study of a working-class subculture in Genoa, North-Western Italy. I develop my argument through a coupled reading of the work of the Centre for Contemporary Cultural Studies (CCCS) and more recent post-structural developments in the fields of youth studies and cultural critical criminology. I discuss how these apparently contrasting lines of inquiry, when jointly used, shed light on different aspects of the cultural practices of specific subcultures contributing to reflect on the study of youth cultures and subcultures in today’s society and overcoming some of the ‘dead ends’ of the opposition between the scholarly categories of subculture and post-subculture. In fact, through an analysis of the sites, socialization processes, and hedonistic ethos of the subculture, I show how within a single subculture there could be a coexistence of: resistance practices and subversive styles of expression as the CCCS research program posits; and signs of fragmentary and partial aesthetic engagements devoid of political contents and instead primarily oriented towards the affirmation of the individual, as argued by the adherents of the post-subcultural position.

Online collaboration has become a regular practice for many Internet users, reflecting the emergence of new participatory cultures in the virtual world. However, little is yet known about the processes and conditions for online collaboration in informally formed writing spaces and how these create opportunities for participants’ identity work. This ethnographic case study explores how four young adults, fans of the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic (bronies), negotiated a dialogic space for their online collaboration on a fan translation project and how this created opportunities for their identity work. After a year of participant observation, we collected interviews, ethnographic diaries and participants’ chats, which were analysed with qualitative content and discourse analysis methods. The findings showed how the Etherpad online writing platform used by the participants facilitated the construction of dialogic space through the visualization of a shared artefact and adjustable features. It was in this dialogic space where the participants negotiated their expert identities which furthered their discussions about writing, translating and technological innovations. The study advances present-day knowledge about online collaboration in affinity groups, engendering the construction of a dialogic space for collaborative writing and participants’ identity work.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to examine how the exercise of administrative authority to suspend the Muslim Student Association (MSA), an affinity group at a suburban Midwestern high school, was experienced and perceived by affected students. Notably, it traces the mobilization of the MSA students to challenge the principal’s authority through formal channels within the district to reopen the affinity group. In doing so, the students’ activism represents an example of dissensus, or mode of political engagement that challenges top-down models of fostering equity and diversity in schools. Design/methodology/approach The data are drawn from a nine-month ethnographic case study at an inner-ring suburban school in a large Midwestern metropolitan area. Data include participant observation of classrooms and affinity group meetings, semi-structured individual and group interviews, informal conversation and analytical memos synthesizing ethnographic fieldnotes. Findings Though the school and district have made different investments in strengthening equity and diversity at the school, transnational and minoritized Muslim students report a school climate that is characterized by exclusion and racialized surveillance. The principal’s decision to suspend the MSA was characterized by a narrow understanding of the purpose of the group and the identities of the student members. The decision to suspend the MSA, however, produced conditions centering the agentive potential of marginalized and minoritized students. Originality/value This paper opens up the tensions challenges of incorporating student voice into educational decision making. Notably, it highlights important possibilities for political action students when their voices cannot or will not be heard by those who make decisions on their behalf.

<p>Portfolio learning has been utilised in education for many years and a natural development in today's digital environment has been the move from paper to electronic portfolios (e-portfolios). The development of e-portfolios in New Zealand has also been driven by two forces- the emerging view that e-portfolios can be an effective way to support constructivist approaches to learning and help develop students into 'lifelong learners' ; and the beliefs about today's digital environment and the way in which students should and do operate within this. In many ways, e-portfolio research is a relatively young field of study and much of the research that has been conducted has occurred in the tertiary environment and related to the perceptions of the instructor or technologist. In an attempt to add depth to current e-portfolio research, this study made use of a mixed-methods, descriptive case study approach in order to focus on the perceptions of a group of high school students and the way in which they experienced using the e-portfolio application MyPortfolio for the first time. Key findings of this study focus on the way in which students experienced using MyPortfolio and the fact that although it is often claimed that e-portfolio tools can be effective in helping developing reflective thinking in students, overall, the students in this study predominately saw MyPortfolio as a tool to organise and process knowledge rather than something that could help them to engage in 'deep learning'. The experiences and perceptions of the students in this study also challenged ideas about how much students want to use ICT within the school environment and this study suggests that increased use of ICT can lead to students missing the social interaction that usually occurs within the classroom. In a similar vein, the students in this study also challenged the idea of the 'digital native' and their experiences suggest that, as with any area of learning, students' skills with using ICT varied greatly. The way that the students in this study made use of MyPortfolio also demonstrates the fact that although e-portfolio tools such as MyPortfolio offer students the opportunity to engage in reflective learning, they do not necessarily undertake this naturally. Finally, the findings of this study highlight the role of the teacher in supporting effective use of ICT for learning.</p>

A conducive learning situation is essential in learning English. However, one problem that usually disturbs the learning situation is the appearance of disruptive behavior. Students' disruptive behavior is an inappropriate behavior conducted by students during the learning process which turns the classroom into unconducive. Exactly, there are several factors contribute to the occurrence of disruptive behavior in the English lesson, especially on senior high school students. Thus, the current study was a case study aimed to investigate several causes of students' disruptive behavior in English teaching-learning process in the classroom. The subjects of this study consisted of an English teacher and a class of twelfth-grade students in a small town in Indonesia. The data were collected using observation and interview. The result of this study showed that students' disruptive behavior in the English classroom was caused by internal factor and external factor. Feeling boredom, feeling anxiety, and seeking attention were internal factor that became the occurrence of disruptive behavior. While fatigue was the external factor that causes the emergence of students' disruptive behavior in the English teaching-learning process in the classroom.             Keywords Disruptive Behavior, English Classroom, Senior High School Students, Teachers’ Management
