  • Master of Education in Educational Leadership and Management [Oupm016]
    Open University of Mauritius Master of Education in Educational Leadership and Management [OUpm016] 1. Rationale and Objectives of the Programme The Master of Education in Educational Leadership and Management at the Open University of Mauritius is a programme intended for anyone with a strong interest in educational leadership and management. People need to master the 21st Century leadership skills to ensure sustainable leadership in their educational institutions and to lead their organisation effectively. Indeed, the changing demands of the changing school characteristics require that those involved in it be well prepared to manage the learners, educators, parents and even work towards community outreach. Else, modern leaders, be they educator leaders, school leaders, community leaders or group leaders may destroy the functioning of the organisation. This programme further develops the leadership skills of people who are engaged in the management of institutions at the micro, macro and meso levels. The educators, the school heads, the superintendents, the directors of institutions, the administrators among all those involved in educational institutions are agents of change towards school effectiveness and improvement. It aims to assist graduates of different disciplines to pursue a career in education, with a leadership and management focus. All those who are in management positions but without relevant qualifications in educational leadership and management and who aspire to occupy such positions are provided with the vast knowledge in the field to expand their knowledge and bring into their learning their professional experience to have a deeper understanding into the practices of leadership and management. More specifically, the programme aims at: Improving understanding of leadership practices in social, cultural, political and policy contexts Utilising existing and emerging international research-informed knowledge of educational leadership and management 1 Enabling a deeper understanding of the learner’s organisation and the educational environment.

  • Exploiting the Bilingual's Psycho-Social
    International Journal of Arts & Sciences, CD-ROM. ISSN: 1944-6934 :: 09(02):551–564 (2016) EXPLOITING THE BILINGUAL’S PSYCHO-SOCIAL CHARACTERISTICS TO ENHANCE VOCABULARY ACQUISITION Enoka Makulloluwa Brock University, Canada This paper is a literature review exploring to what extent translation from the second language (L2) to first language (L1) and the construction of mnemonics based on culturally relevant imagery facilitate the encoding and retrieval of new vocabulary words in English as a Second Language (ESL) undergraduates. The study is mainly informed by the Bilingual Dual Coding Theory (BDCT), which assumes that cognitive activity of a bilingual is mediated by the two verbal systems in his/her language repertoire and the image system representing his/her knowledge of the world. Based on the literature, I propose that the use of L1 and culturally relelvant imagery together provide a potential vocabulary learning strategy to ESL learners as they acknowledge the learners psycho-social characterisitcs into consideration. Keywords: L1, Imagery mnemonics, BDCT, Vocabualry. Introduction Research suggests that there exist an achievement gap in terms of academic performance between English as a Second Language (ESL) learners with Limited English Proficiency (LEP) and their native English- speaking counterparts (Bibian, 2006; Hakuta, Butler, & Witt, 2000; Stahl & Nagy, 2006; Gu, 2013). This is due to their inadequate skills in the medium of classroom instruction. In particular, one of the literacy skills that causes learners insurmountable difficulties is vocabulary. It is identified as one of the main explanations for the achievement gap between ESL learners with LEP and their native English-speaking peers (August & Shanahan, 2006; Giridharan, 2012; Ramachandran & Rahim, 2004).

  • Methodological Transactionalism and the Sociology of Education Daniel A
    Methodological Transactionalism and the Sociology of Education Daniel A. McFarland, David Diehl and Craig Rawlings (Stanford University) Abstract: The development and spread of research methods in sociology can be understood as a story about the increasing sophistication of tools in order to better answer fundamental disciplinary questions. In this chapter we argue that recent developments, related to both increased computing power and data collection ability along with broader cultural shifts emphasizing interdependencies, have positioned Social Network Analysis (SNA) as a powerful tool for empirically studying the dynamic and processual view of schooling that is at the heart of educational theory. More specifically, we explore how SNA can help us both better understand as well as reconceptualize two central topics in the sociology of education: classroom interaction and status attainment. We conclude with a brief discussion about possible future directions network analysis may take in educational research, positing that it will become an increasingly valuable research approach because our ability to collect streaming behavioral and transactional data is growing rapidly. INTRODUCTION In recent years Social Network Analysis (SNA) has become increasingly common in numerous sociological sub-disciplines, the result being a host of innovative research that tackles old and new problems alike. Students of the sociology of knowledge, for example, use networks of journal co-citations as a novel method for tracking the diffusion of new ideas through the academy (e.g., Hargens 2000; Moody 2004). Political sociologists are drawing on SNA to understand the dynamics of collective action (Diani 1995; Tarrow 1994). Organizational sociologists use formal and informal work networks to study organizational learning (Hansen 1999; Rawlings et.al.

  • Quality Assurance in Open, Distance and Online Education in Mauritius
    Research Week 2007 – Special Issue – UoM Research Journal -Volume 13A – 2007 University of Mauritius, Réduit, Mauritius Quality Assurance in Open, Distance and Online Education in Mauritius M D Nowbuth* Department of Civil Engineering, University of Mauritius, Reduit [email protected] Y Baguant-Moonshiram Department of Civil Engineering, University of Mauritius, Reduit [email protected] Abstract Quality assurance in the education sector is the systematic review of educational programmes to ensure that acceptable standards of education, scholarship and infrastructure are being maintained. The current vision and strategic direction of many organisations has raised the importance of using technology to create flexibility in the teaching process. Quality assurance in open, distance and online education, aims at providing information to protect students from inadequate learning resources and low-quality provisions. It also aims to provide decision-makers at the governmental and institutional level with information and skills necessary to better navigate in the new higher education space. In order to ensure that the quality of this new approach to learning and teaching at tertiary level maintains the aspiration of excellence Universities need to be aware of and reflect on what it does and where changes are called for there need to be opportunities to adapt and revise. Quality is emerging as a key factor in assuring the success of online learning initiatives. Quality assurance is a difficult concept to discuss because everyone’s picture of quality varies and this is particularly true of online learning. This paper will in it own way discuss the concept of quality assurance as applied to open, distance and online education.

    Introduction to Sociology of Education (SOED-GE.2002) NEW YORK UNIVERSITY, Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development Department of Humanities and Social Sciences, Sociology and Education Program Fall 2015 | Thursdays 9:00-10:40am | Silver 403 | Professor: Catherine Kramarczuk Voulgarides, Ph.D. Office: 726 Broadway, 5th Floor | Office Hours: By appointment | [email protected] | COURSE DESCRIPTION: This graduate seminar is focused on providing students with a thorough and detailed introduction to key concepts and ideas in sociology of education. We will explore how social theory relates to education. In the course we will think critically about the intersections between theory and practice. In addition, schools do not solely have inputs (students) and outputs (an educated person). Many social processes and sorting occur both within and across schools. These processes influence patterns of social stratification, inequality and inequities. Throughout the course we will consider questions like the following: 1. How do social markers of difference-- such as race, class, language status, gender, ethnicity, sexuality, ability—affect, or relate to, the schooling process and educational outcomes? 2. What role does the organizational, legal and political environment have on the process of schooling? 3. How does social context and social structure influence the process of schooling? 4. How are formal and informal relationships organized within schools, and what are the consequences for students’ learning and identities? 5. To what extent, and in what ways, do schools promote equal opportunity, and to what extent, and in what ways, do schools reproduce prevailing patterns of power, privilege, and hierarchy?

Castagno Northern Arizona University Bryan McKinley Jones Brayboy Arizona State University This article reviews the literature on culturally responsive schooling (CRS) for Indigenous youth with an eye toward how we might provide more equi- table and culturally responsive education within the current context of stan- dardization and accountability. Although CRS for Indigenous youth has been advocated for over the past 40 years, schools and classrooms are failing to meet the needs of Indigenous students. The authors suggest that although the plethora of writing on CRS reviewed here is insightful, it has had little impact on what teachers do because it is too easily reduced to essentializations, meaningless generalizations, or trivial anecdotes—none of which result in systemic, institutional, or lasting changes to schools serving Indigenous youth.

Few have ventured outside it and explored the presence, let alone the significance, of the theme in other passages throughout Luke-Acts. Thus, the aim of this study is to show where, how, and why Luke appropriates the theme of Passover in his writings.
