The conceptual basis presented subsequently leads to the identification of four theoretical configurations that can support the analysis of the relationships between school disciplines and “Éducations à” in terms of the educational purposes, targeted learning, status of disciplinary knowledge, and preferred modes of instruction.","PeriodicalId":44124,"journal":{"name":"McGill Journal of Education","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2020-05-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48599984","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A notable exception to this romantic tendency was the work of the Finnish-American anarchist newspaper columnist, songwriter and member of the Industrial Workers of the World (IWW), T-Bone Slim (Matt Valentine Huhta). T Bone Slim’s writings were radical interventions in debates around class, labour and exploitation in 1920s and 1930s America. His work was deeply satirical, with a scathing wit reminiscent of Mark Twain. Focussing on his representation of food, fame, and the body, this article argues that Slim’s work represents a challenge to the idealistic portrayal of the hobo that appears in many contemporary autobiographies and in later academic scholarship.","PeriodicalId":44124,"journal":{"name":"McGill Journal of Education","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2019-06-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41714853","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

THE EXPERIENCE OF SCHOOL ASSESSMENT BY PRIMARY AND SECONDARY PUPILS. CONTRIBUTING TO THE AWARENESS OF MOTIVATIONAL PROCESSES AT SCHOOL This article attempts to understand the way French primary and secondary pupils react to educational verdicts using a quantitative approach to a questionnaire administered to secondary-school pupils. This analysis endeavours to distinguish the effects of two distinct assessment practices: competency-based assessment and grading. The competency-based assessment most frequently used in primary school helps to alleviate pupils’ sense of discouragement, but as is the case for grades, cannot completely rid them of a certain fear of failure. Finally, our study shows that pupils in the study work first and foremost with the objective of obtaining good grades as well as favorable professional prospects.","PeriodicalId":44124,"journal":{"name":"McGill Journal of Education","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.1,"publicationDate":"2019-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47921824","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Case study methodology was taken up to understand and enhance this in situ teacher education approach. Four themes were derived through qualitative analysis: 1) theory / practice connections in situ; 2) diverse learners and the need for responsivity in teaching; 3) in situ learning through collaboration; and 4) benefits and tensions at the school and program level. Findings suggest that school / university in situ teacher education partnerships can provide rich contextual and situational learning that disrupt normative conceptions of teaching, learning and literacy.
