Coping with the essentialities of online teaching and learning throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, this study aims to give insights into the interpretation of online teaching during the lockdown in Turkey. We applied an ‘opinions regarding online education’ survey (n = 1,007) to examine students’ attitudes towards online education. The participants were students having online classes due to COVID-19 lockdown at different universities in Turkey. Results showed that COVID-19 quarantine has influenced the academic performance of most participants to fluctuating degrees. Yet, most participants believed that online classes could not replace actual classes (n = 725; 72.0%), while only 10.1% of them believed online classes could replace face-to-face classes. Besides, students regularly attending the online classes have positive online education attitudes higher than those of the students who sometimes or never attend the lessons. Thus, this study presents a general illustration of ongoing online education activities during the lockdown and subsequently gives recommendations for future digital learning activities.","PeriodicalId":51688,"journal":{"name":"Culture and Education","volume":"14 1","pages":"297 - 324"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81861105","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A qualitative study was carried out and interviews were held with 119 Spanish faculty members from arts and humanities, STEM, health sciences, social and legal sciences and education sciences. The results are presented by knowledge area, followed by an analysis of the differences and similarities between them. The findings reveal that, despite belonging to different disciplines, inclusive faculty members use similar methodological strategies that welcome all students and do not differentiate in their practice between students with and without disabilities. The findings also indicate that faculty use a variety of methodological strategies, with active and participatory ones being considered most effective. This study shows that the methodological strategies that are effective for students in general are also effective for those with disabilities.","PeriodicalId":51688,"journal":{"name":"Culture and Education","volume":"98 1","pages":"231 - 265"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-03-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"85330735","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Framing communication technologies as a source of community-based self-expression, we explore the processes of adolescents’ audiovisual materialization of life stories and family memory during the two-year workshop, as well as their subsequent projection in cultural circuits and social networks as a form of agency. Based on this experience, we advocate the need for cooperation among public institutions (secondary schools, city councils, universities and conservatories, among other centres) and the development of a decolonial pedagogy focused on the life experiences of young migrants and/or descendants of migrants with the aim of enhancing intercultural education both inside and outside school.","PeriodicalId":51688,"journal":{"name":"Culture and Education","volume":"97 1","pages":"164 - 179"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81630917","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The independent contributions of parents’ occupational (SES-PO) and educational level (SES-PE) on emergent literacy were separately analysed. Three emergent literacy skills were assessed in 189 children twice, at the beginning and the end of the last year of kindergarten. Firstly, repeated-measures MANCOVA has shown that only SES-PE was significantly associated with the increase of all emergent literacy skills over the school year. Secondly, robust-methods ANOVA has shown what type of mix of family-PE is optimal at a school level for children to achieve significant improvements after one year of kindergarten. Creating mixed-SES learning environments may improve children’s emergent literacy skills. Policymakers should specifically target parental educational levels, rather than occupational levels, when addressing the issue of SES in schools.","PeriodicalId":51688,"journal":{"name":"Culture and Education","volume":"74 1","pages":"102 - 139"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86356733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Many primary and secondary school students show little interest in studying mathematics, which is accompanied by poor marks, low school success rates and learning disabilities. It is possible to think that these difficulties are general throughout the population and not related only to pathological developmental conditions and disabilities. Within psychology, the cultural-historical approach and activity theory allow us to analyse and characterize the content of educational methods. This study analyses three proposals for teaching mathematics in the third year of preschool education in Mexico according to type of orientation, the concepts taught, the actions the teacher does with the students and the classroom communication. It discusses the need to reconsider the content of educational work in preschool institutions in order to guarantee children’s optimal level of preparation for the conceptual learning of mathematics in primary school.","PeriodicalId":51688,"journal":{"name":"Culture and Education","volume":"46 1","pages":"72 - 101"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80976990","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the concept of the primitive, colonialistic arrogance and even racism are discovered, and the concept of the superhuman is attributed to the influence of Nietzsche and Marxist revolutionary utopias. Vygotsky’s criticism of the modern ‘cultural man’ is virtually ignored. This article reveals the actual content of these concepts in the theory of Vygotsky and clears them of the latest ideological connotations. The historical framework for the existence of the primitive man is defined as the following: from the start of labouring life to the invention of ‘signification’. The era of the superhuman will come as a result of the ‘polytechnization of labor’, i.e., the transformation of labour into an applied science. The psychology of the future will become the ‘theory and practice of the superhuman’. It aims to form a free, universally developed personality that creates the conditions of its own life and regulates its psychological functions.","PeriodicalId":51688,"journal":{"name":"Culture and Education","volume":"35 1","pages":"188 - 210"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2022-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77079980","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"教育学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The goal was to continue publishing studies that further our understanding of educational processes throughout the lifespan, bearing in mind the different cultural contexts underlying them. The contributions were to provide relevant, innovative, theoretically and methodologically consistent information. Faithful to the journal’s origins and identity, we defined an editorial line around the analysis and discussion of the different topics linking education and culture, with a renewed emphasis on the development of language and literacy in the broad sense, including digital literacy, in a host of formal and informal teaching–learning scenarios. At the same time, we broadened the formats of articles that the journal would accept, including not only research reports but also duly evaluated teaching experiences, original educational projects and position articles. Most importantly, we refined the peer review process, which is the best guarantee of the publication’s quality. These publication formats were complemented by important monographic issues on a range of topics, each overseen by international guest editors who were experts in their respective fields. The monographs examined everything from advanced strategies for statistical data processing to the role of education in the dissemination of fake news, inclusive university education and fundamental considerations on immigration and the educational system. In parallel, the decision of the Fundación Infancia y Aprendizaje to undertake a bilingual English–Spanish publication contributed to internationalizing a publication which was already a benchmark in the Spanish-speaking world. This decision led to the publication of articles from a variety of places, including China, Turkey, the United States and Israel. Even though the majority of articles continue to come from Spain and Latin America, the bilingual publication made it possible to disseminate it in different non-Spanish-speaking milieus. Nothing of what has been done would have been possible without the colossal assistance of Nayme Salas, who has been in charge of the editorial coordination of Culture and Education over these seven years. Nayme effectively and creatively resolved the different predicaments that arose in the management of the digital platform, as well as the often unusual inquiries of authors and reviewers. Nayme deserves all my gratitude for the quality of her collaboration. Two teams of associate editors worked successively during this period.
