Komisji Edukacji Narodowej w Krakowie Komunikacja międzykulturowa w wielokulturowym społeczeństwie Nieuniknione wydaje sę podążanie współczesnego świata w stronę coraz większej globalizacji. Jest to świat, w którym osiągnięty stopień rozwoju technologicznego umożliwił powstanie sieci komunikacyjnej i telekomunikacyjnej łączącej praktycz- nie wszystkie jego zakątki. Świat w którym coraz bardziej złożone są współzależ- ności gospodarcze, polityczne, strategiczne, kulturalne itd., a w każdym z tych ob- szarów pojawiają się nowe, ponadkrajowe i ponadnarodowe formy organizacyjne, posiadające prawo do podejmowania decyzji wiążących dla państw i narodów, któ- re do nich należą. Jeśli do tego dodamy fakt, że ruchy migracyjne przemieniły się w stały element naszych czasów i wydają się coraz intensywniejsze, do tego stopnia, że mobilność człowieka, jak to pokazuje Zygmunt Bauman, stała się jedną z cech strukturalnych naszych społeczeństw (Bauman 1998), nie jest niczym dziwnym to, że konsekwencją jest coraz silniejsza i coraz bardziej powszechna pluralizacja spo- łeczeństwa, rozumiana za Peterem L. Bergerem jako „sytuacja, kiedy różne grupy etniczne i wyznaniowe pokojowo ze sobą współistnieją i utrzymują ze sobą stosunki społeczne” (Berger 2007). Wszystko to sprawia, że komunikacja międzykulturowa uzyskuje ogromne roz- miary i znaczenie. Już w 1996 r. Robert Young pisał: “nie ma, być może, istotniej- szego tematu w naukach społecznych od badań nad komunikacją międzykulturową. Porozumienie pomiędzy członkami różnych kultur zawsze było ważne, ale nigdy tak bardzo jak obecnie. Wcześniej była to sprawa konieczna dla imperiów czy dla handlu, teraz chodzi o przetrwanie naszego gatunku” (1996, s. 1). Komunikacja międzykultu- rowa nie tylko stała się ważnym przedmiotem badań różnych dyscyplin naukowych, ale stanowi także jeden z kluczowych punktów zainteresowań w pracy międzynaro- dowych ciał takich jak UNESCO czy Rada Europy, instytucji zajmujących się edukacją na różnych poziomach, polityką, migracyjną krajową i międzynarodową itd. Jak pokazują teksty składające się na niniejszy tom, stosowanie terminu „mię- dzykulturowy” nie jest przypadkowe. Zanim pojawił się owy termin istniały już po- jęcia „pluralizmu kulturowego” i „wielokulturowości”. Koncepcja wielokulturowo- ści powstała w obrębie pluralizmu kulturowego i przez wielu autorów jest z nim [6] María paula Malinowski rubio utożsamiana. Pluralizm kulturowy odnosi się do współistnienia na jednym teryto- rium grup o różnych kulturach, podkreślając pozytywność tej koegzystencji, broniąc prawa każdej z grup lub społeczności kulturowych do zachowania swojej kultury i tożsamości, oraz kładąc nacisk na równość i prawo do różnorodności, w opozycji do modeli asymilacyjnych czy koncepcji melting pot. Wielokulturowość, tak

First, I explore how home educators use technology for homeschooling. Second, I investigate how home educators see themselves as teachers when using technology. Several themes emerged from the data revealing that home educators believe technology enables them to provide high quality curriculum and individualized instruction and to create a constructive and engaging learning environment for their children. Data were collected by convenience sampling with a survey of 316 (N = 316) home educators from 52 different territories, states, provinces, and countries across the globe, a nonrandom sample which is not representative of the entire homeschooling population. The quantitative data provide a specific picture of home education, reasons for homeschooling, and home educators’ perceptions of technology use in their homeschool.

  • Housing, Neighborhoods, and Schools of Opportunity
    Insights into Housing and Community Development Policy U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development | Office of Policy Development and Research Breaking Down Barriers: Housing, Neighborhoods, and Schools of Opportunity Today, past policy choices and an array of systemic forces—including persistent housing discrimination—have segregated many children in distressed, underresourced neighborhoods and high-poverty, low-quality schools. High-poverty schools face many barriers to success. Moreover, the effects of housing and neighborhoods on children are intertwined, offering multiple, potentially complementary ways to support children’s development. Although school choice can help students in high- poverty neighborhoods access higher-quality schools, where children live significantly affects their school options: housing strategies are an important complement to choice. Housing policy can enable more children to benefit from neighborhoods and schools of opportunity both by investing where children already are and by enabling families to make opportunity moves. Place-based housing interventions where children currently live and attend school can support low-income students’ educa- tion and align with initiatives to improve high-poverty districts and schools. Public housing agencies (PHAs) are well-placed to support children’s success in school in many ways, such as helping parents engage in their children’s education. Also, integrative housing and education initiatives, such as magnet schools in revitalizing areas and housing mobility programs, can reinforce the integrative student assignment plans many districts have implemented.1 Diverse schools can help children develop cross-racial trust and greater capacity to navigate cultural differences,2 and evidence suggests that all groups of children who attend integrated schools experience significant educational benefits.3 This report reviews recent research and identifies key steps policymakers can take to improve children’s access to high-quality neighborhoods and schools.

  • Are Children Overstructured?: Involvement in Adult-Organized Activities and Children’S Outcomes
    ARE CHILDREN OVERSTRUCTURED?: INVOLVEMENT IN ADULT-ORGANIZED ACTIVITIES AND CHILDREN’S OUTCOMES A THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in The Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Kelly M. Turpin, B.A. *** The Ohio State University 2008 Master’s Examination Committee: Dr. Douglas B. Downey, Adviser Approved By: Dr. Liana Sayer ________________________ Adviser Dr. Zhenchao Qian Graduate Department of Sociology ABSTRACT Changes in how Americans view the role of children have prompted an increase in the deliberate cultivation of children's skills through intensive and structured parenting. With children participating in more structured activities as a result of this shift in childrearing philosophies, there are many reasons to question the benefits of these increasingly "hurried schedules." Surprisingly, however, scholars have ignored possible negative ramifications by assuming that structured activities have a simple, linear relationship with children's well-being. With more detailed modeling, I test whether the functional form of the relationship is linear, threshold, or curvilinear by analyzing a sample of 17,527 elementary-age children from The Early Childhood Longitudinal Study--Kindergarten Class of 1998-99. Findings primarily reveal a threshold relationship. For example, participation in two (versus none or one) structured activities per month was associated with greater well-being among children, but further levels of participation in structured activities resulted in no additional benefit. ii ACKNOWLEDGMENTS First and foremost I would like to thank my advisor, Dr. Douglas Downey whose insightful comments delivered at rapid speed was invaluable to my work. He is also responsible for alerting me to the body of literature surrounding concerted cultivation and inspiring me to tackle the “hurried child” hypothesis in my own work.

Going beyond the question of whether family structure affects child outcomes—a topic that’s already been covered at length, including in previous Future of Children volumes—she examines how family structure differentially affects children. One important finding from recent studies is that growing up outside a family with two biological, married parents yields especially negative consequences for boys as compared to girls, including poorer educational outcomes and higher rates of criminal involvement. Wasserman describes mechanisms that may link family structure to children’s outcomes, in terms of both the main effect and the differences between effects on boys and on girls. These include same-gender role models in the household and in the neighborhood, parental resources (including money, time, and more), parenting quantity and quality (with attention to how parents allocate their time to children of different genders), and the differences in how boys and girls respond to parental inputs, among other hypotheses.

Faith And Doubt At The oD ctor’s: Class, Race, And The Role Of Community In Medical Decision Making Abstract How do parents make medical decisions for themselves and their children? Why do some parents agree to interventions – such as vaccines, obstetrical treatment, and antibiotics – that others do not? And how do class and race shape those decisions? Past research has shown that white, middle class parents are the most likely to refuse medical interventions on philosophical grounds, including vaccines (Reich 2016a). Yet the existing research does not help us understand why others in similar circumstances don’t make the same choice, nor how we should understand working class patients with their own medical refusals. The current study seeks to address these puzzles by taking a comparative view of medical decisions. Drawing on data from ninety interviews with middle- and working-class adults (overwhelmingly mothers) and over three years of ethnographic research, I show that community ties play a vital role in shaping participants’ medical decisions.

  • What Money Doesn't Buy: Class Resources and Children's
    What Money Doesn’t Buy 479 What Money Doesn’t Buy What Money Doesn’t Buy: Class Resources and Children’s Participation in Organized Extracurricular Activities Elliot B. Weininger, SUNY College at Brockport Annette Lareau, University of Pennsylvania Dalton Conley, New York University ecent research suggests that participation in organized extracurricular activities by children and adolescents can have educational and occupational payoffs. This Rresearch also establishes that participation is strongly associated with social class. However, debate has ensued—primarily among qualitative researchers—over whether the association between class and activities stems exclusively from inequali- ties in objective resources and constraints or whether differing cultural orientations have a role. We address this debate using a nationally representative sample of chil- dren’s time diaries, merged with extensive information on their families, to model par- ticipation in, and expenditures on, organized activities. While we cannot directly observe cultural orientations, we account for a substantially wider array of resources and constraints than previous studies. We find that, above and beyond these factors, maternal education has a consistently large effect on the outcomes we study. We discuss the plausibility of a cultural interpretation of this result, as well as alternative interpretations. Introduction In the forty years since the publication of Inequality (Jencks 1972), the question of how family social position influences children’s life experiences has occupied a great deal of sociologists’ attention. While scholars have focused for decades on issues such as inequality in family resources and school characteristics, in recent years interest has increased in the ways children spend their out-of-school time, and in particular, their participation in organized extracurricular activities.
