This case study explores how two 16-year-old newcomer youth in a Canadian secondary school navigated the digital multimodal composition process through role-play in their first digital video production at school. Employing a qualitative, case-study design, the study shows how the youth playfully accentuated collaborative over coercive power relations, as well as repositioned and represented their imagined identities as they played different assigned roles in the filmmaking process. The implications of these findings are discussed for educators and researchers considering digital multimodal composition as a classroom literacy practice.

Case Study Design

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the supervision reports written on the basis of primary school supervisors’ supervision in a primary school. The sample consists of supervision reports of a primary school which was a middle school before 1997 in Konya/Meram. A case study design was used. Data was obtained through document analysis of qualitative research techniques. Documents consist of reports written by primary supervisors between the years of 1965-2008. The data were analyzed by content analysis. Content analysis was done according to phases that stated by Yildirim & Simsek (2006) as 1) Coding the data 2) Finding themes 3) Organizing the codes and themes 4) Commenting the findings. Reports that written by supervisors between 1965-2008 were coded by year. Coded reports split up themes using content analysis. According to the results, supervision reports divided into five themes: physical condition, education-instruction, account-belongings, school-environment relationship and school management. ÖzetAraştırmanın amacı, ilköğretim denetmenlerinin bir ilköğretim okulunda yaptıkları denetime dayalı olarak yazdıkları denetim raporlarının değerlendirilmesidir. Çalışma grubu Konya ili Meram ilçesinde yer alan 1997’den önce ortaokul olan bir ilköğretim okulunun denetim raporlarından oluşmaktadır. Veriler, nitel araştırma tekniklerinden doküman incelemesi yoluyla toplanmıştır. Doküman incelemesi, mevcut kayıt ya da belgelerin, veri kaynağı olarak sistemli incelenmesi şeklinde ifade edilmektedir. Dokümanlar, Konya ilköğretim denetmenlerinin 1965–2008 yılları arasında yazdıkları raporlardan oluşmaktadır. Veriler, içerik analizi yöntemi ile analiz edilmiştir. Araştırmada içerik analizi için Yıldırım ve Şimşek (2006) tarafından belirtilen (1) verilerin kodlanması, (2) temaların bulunması, (3) kodların ve temaların düzenlenmesi ve (4) bulguların yorumlanması aşamalarına göre yapılmıştır. Denetmenler tarafından 1965-2008 yılları arasında yazılan raporlar yazıldığı yıla göre kodlanmıştır. Kodlanan raporlar içerik analizi ile temalara ayrılmıştır. Analiz sonuçlarına göre, denetim raporları fiziki durum, eğitim-öğretim, hesap-ayniyat, okul-çevre ilişkileri ve okul yönetimi olmak üzere beş temaya ayrılmıştır.

This article reviews the role of guidance and counselling in Malawi in reducing dropout and easing the transition of students to tertiary education, as well as in helping them during their time in tertiary education. It begins by identifying key success factors in guidance and counselling services for learners in both developed and developing countries. The article argues that the provision of viable secondary school careers guidance and changes to the university counselling programme could reduce the dropout rate and create a smoother transition for students during tertiary education with a positive impact on learning progression. The rationale for integrating guidance and counselling between school and tertiary provision is then explored. Drawing on case-study research carried out at Mzuzu University (MZUNI), the article presents findings on the preparation of students at secondary school for university education, the relationship of subjects offered at secondary school to courses pursued at university and the challenges faced by students as they start university and progress through the levels. The article concludes with some recommendations for enabling smoother transitions through the integration of school guidance and counselling in learning institutions.

Embedded Case Study

Faculty work now includes market-like behaviors that create research, teaching, and service opportunities. This study employs an embedded case study design to evaluate the extent to which faculty members interact with external organizations to mitigate financial constraints and how those relationships vary by academic discipline. The findings show a similar number of ties among faculty members in high- and low-resource disciplines, reciprocity between faculty members and external organizations, and an expanded conceptualization of faculty work.
