UNIVERSITY of CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Pathways of Hope for The UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Pathways of Hope for the Favela Youth: A Case Study of Emancipatory Education as a Tool for Individual and Community Transformation A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Education by Veriene Melo 2018 © Copyright by Veriene Melo 2018 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Pathways of Hope for the Favela Youth: A Case Study of Emancipatory Education as a Tool for Individual and Community Transformation by Veriene Melo Doctor of Philosophy in Education University of California, Los Angeles, 2018 Professor Carlos A Torres, Chair Lacking decent educational, employment and cultural opportunities, globally, generations of young people struggle to cultivate their potential and act upon their dreams for a better future. Those living amidst poverty and violence are particularly exposed to vulnerabilities that limits their ability to escape from exclusion and move up the social ladder. Generally, youth facing marginalization are approached either as a problem to be dealt with through repressive policies or passive objects of social action, rather than subjects, rights-holders, and creators of innovative solutions to contemporary societal challenges. As we consider more inclusive and context-sensitive ways to work for and with young people, emancipatory education offers a relevant framework of theory and practice that can inform efforts to capacitate, empower, and more actively engage youth in local development processes. Informed by the theoretical lens of critical pedagogy and employing a qualitative case study methodology, this dissertation explores the opportunities and constraints of applying ii elements of a Freirean emancipatory education in non-formal youth education provisions as an instrument to promote individual and territorial transformation in communities at the margins. Drawing from qualitative and quantitative data from an entrepreneurship program supporting hundreds of youth from the favelas and peripheries of Rio de Janeiro in advancing their own actions for change, the study investigates into three central thematics concerning: the lifeworld of participants and outcomes at the individual level; project creation and community impact; and program methodology vis-a-vis the underlying dimensions of critical pedagogy and applicability lessons. Following the systematization and linkage of theories, processes, methods and experiences, the study findings demonstrate the program’s relevance to broader opportunity schemes in youth empowerment, youth-led community transformation, and a youth- centered emancipatory education, contributing to a better understanding of critical pedagogy as a platform of possibility for young people in poverty-stricken territories. Together, these practical tools for capacity building, protagonism and participation - which draw from youth’s social history and knowledge - provides an illustration of how young people take part in social action, exercise their agency, and promote their cultural identities, while creating new platforms to challenge exclusion and advance practices of positive social regeneration. iii The dissertation of Veriene Melo is approved.

  • Building a Culture of Peace Through Critical Literacy with the Net
    PASAA Volume 54 July - December 2017 Building a Culture of Peace through Critical Literacy with the Net Generation Dumrong Adunyarittigun Faculty of Liberal Arts, Thammasat University, Thailand Email: [email protected] Abstract Conflicts and violence either inside or outside the classroom can affect the quality of learning within the classroom. Critical literacy is proposed as a strategic instructional practice which aims at teaching a nation‘s citizens to be literate and raising their critical and social consciousness (Freire, 2007). This paper suggests how teachers, as intellectual labor (Smyth, 2011), can implement a critical literacy framework to build a culture of peace in a reading class where students hold different ‗taken-for-granted‘ ideologies of being ‗us‘ and ‗them‘. It also proposes how Net Generation students in our EFL classrooms can make a significant contribution to the transformation of conflicts and violence stemming from divisions, hierarchy of differences and inequalities of the society into peace. Keywords: critical literacy, culture of peace, Net Generation 236 | PASAA Vol. 54 July - December 2017 Introduction Conflict in classrooms and communities has become commonplace. Conflicts in schools or out of schools such as in families or societies can significantly affect our students‘ motivation to learn, intellectual curiosity, learning performance and academic achievement (Johnson, & Johnson, 1995, 1996). Conflict occurs when an individual‘s needs, interests, wants or values are incompatible with someone else‘s, and this causes the individual to express an emotional reaction to the situation by showing disagreement and interfering with what someone else needs to get or to have (Mayer, 2000).

Tracing performances of literature reading, readers and non-readers in educational practice Cover illustration: Påhl Sundström © Elin Sundström Sjödin, 2019 Title: Where is the Critical in Literacy? Tracing performances of literature reading, readers and non-readers in educational practice Publisher: Örebro University 2019 www.oru.se/publikationer-avhandlingar Print: Örebro University, Repro 12/2018 ISSN 1404-9570 ISBN 978-91-7529-270-0 Abstract Elin Sundström Sjödin (2019): Where is the critical in literacy? Tracing performances of literature reading, readers and non-readers in educational practice. Örebro Studies in Education 59 and Örebro Studies in Educational Sciences with an Emphasis on Didactics 18. In many instances in society, educational and other, literature reading is emphasised as something that develops persons in positive ways. The pre- sent thesis explores this claim in relation to literature reading in educa- tional practices. By tracing how values and critical aspects of reading are enacted, the purpose is both to problematize taken-for-granted truth claims about literature reading and to develop an understanding of the elements involved when reading, readers and critical aspects of reading are created. The studies focus on different educational practices; a teacher’s narrative about grading, information brochures about reading to children and the policy and practice of a reading project at special residential homes for detained youth in Sweden. In these practices, the thesis explores where and when the critical takes place, in what constellations and with what consequences.

  • Effective Critical Media Literacy Pedagogy in Higher Education
    EFFECTIVE CRITICAL MEDIA LITERACY PEDAGOGY IN HIGHER EDUCATION: TURNING SOCIAL JUSTICE THEORY INTO PRACTICE A Dissertation submitted to the faculty of San Francisco State University AS In partial fulfillment of 35 the requirements for the Degree • V\5^ Doctor of Education In Educational Leadership by Nolan Ray Higdon San Francisco, California May 2017 Copyright by Nolan Ray Higdon 2017 CERTIFICATION OF APPROVAL I certify that I have read Effective Critical Media Literacy Pedagogy in Higher Education: Turning Social Justice Theory into Practice by Nolan Ray Higdon, and that in my opinion this work meets the criteria for approving a thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree Doctor of Education in Educational Leadership at San Francisco State University. David Hemphill, Professor of Sociology Professor of Education EFFECTIVE CRITICAL MEDIA LITERACY PEDAGOGY IN HIGHER EDUCATION: TURNING SOCIAL JUSTICE THEORY INTO PRACTICE Nolan Ray Higdon San Francisco, California 2017 This mixed methods dissertation explores the application of critical media literacy pedagogy in higher education. A review of the scholarly literature found that there are five hypothesized outcomes of a critical media literacy education: student engagement, empowerment, civic engagement, critical awareness of media, and adoption of a social justice agenda. The study then explored whether these outcomes were achieved in eleven classrooms (one community college, four public universities, and two private universities) across the United States. It was found that the outcomes of a critical media literacy pedagogy are likely to be achieved in college classrooms that: (1) have an engaging and inspiring instructor; (2) offer a critical perspective on media; (3) discuss issues of inequality and oppression; (4) provide space for student participation; (5) rely on contemporary content and tools; and (6) cover materials that discuss resistance and activism.

  • Using Film and Critical Pedagogy in the Standards-Based Classroom
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF John D. Divelbiss for the degree of Master of Arts in English presented on April 28, 2014. Title: Re-Viewing the Canon: Using Film and Critical Pedagogy in the Standards-based Classroom Abstract approved: __________________________________________________________________ Jon R. Lewis This thesis analyzes the efficacy of emancipatory (critical) pedagogical practices in an educational climate of standards-based reform. Using two films noir of the blacklist era—Body and Soul and Crossfire—as the core texts of a unit in a secondary school curriculum, I argue that an emphasis on student agency and a de-centering of curriculum and instruction is not only compatible with national reforms like the Common Core State Standards but is essential for English/language arts classrooms in the 21st century. In addition to a scholarly review of critical pedagogy and media literacy, and close readings of the two films themselves, this thesis also ends with an informal case study in which both films-as-texts were taught to 9th grade students. By combining theory and practice, I was able to model the praxis at the heart of critical pedagogy, what Paulo Freire calls in Pedagogy of the Oppressed, “reflection and action upon the world in order to transform it.” The films of the blacklist match current national mandates for relevant texts, for media and visual literacy, and for authentic and emancipatory pedagogy. Narrowing down even further on two highly-regarded films released in 1947, the same year the blacklist was initiated, allows for an analysis of the artistic and aesthetic complexities of the texts as well as the high-stakes terms of the political engagements of the blacklist.

  • Practicing Critical Literacy in Second Language Reading
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by UNCG Hosted Online Journals (The University of North... INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CRITICAL PEDAGOGY PRACTICING CRITICAL LITERACY IN SECOND LANGUAGE READING ARMAN ABEDNIA Abstract Disillusioned with educational approaches which encourage students’ passiv- ity and conformity to the wisdom transmitted to them, critical pedagogues focus on improving students’ critical consciousness and self-seeking. This outcome can be achieved by encouraging and helping learners to be critical consumers of texts and reconstruct them in ways that are more consistent with their own local ex- periences. In this paper, I present and elaborate on some steps to practice critical literacy in second language reading instruction. I also discuss challenges involved in practicing this approach as well as some solutions based on my teaching experi- ence. At the end, I highlight the significance of adopting a self-reflexive approach to conceptualizing and practicing critical literacy. Keywords: Critical literacy, critical consciousness, second language class- room. BACKGROUND ritical theories of literacy, primarily derived from critical social theories, are Cconcerned with creation of a more just society through questioning the status quo, recognizing problems and their origins, and bringing about locally effec- tive changes. Literacy in this framework is regarded as an act of knowing which empowers individuals by helping them discover their voices and their ethical re- sponsibilities to improve their world (Beck, 2005). Although there are different approaches to critical literacy (CL) (Pennycook, 2001), they are all concerned with “engaging with the possibilities that the technologies of writing and other modes of inscription offer for social change, cultural diversity, economic equity, 78 | International Journal of Critical Pedagogy | Vol.

  • Movimento Brasil Livre: Analysing a Political Movement Through Its Online Indicators
    Movimento Brasil Livre: analysing a political movement through its online indicators J.P. Guarnieri University of Amsterdam Keywords Brazil, politics, right-wing, neoliberal, activism, social media Abstract In less than four years, Movimento Brasil Livre has been able to garner a lot of attention from the press in Brazil. The neoliberal, conservative movement comprised of young people has been involved in its fair share of polemics, but has also gained supporters throughout the country quite quickly. This study attempts to compare their online activity to their presentation of themselves. It does so by looking at it's Facebook pages and Twitter accounts. Through a combination of data extraction, map generation and content analysis, the study obtains information about the movement's localization, goals and relationships. It finds that they are concentrated in the south and south-east of Brazil, that they are a strongly reactive movement (based on anti-petista sentiment, specifically) who grew through the radicalization of right-wing young people, that there are a few core members and that it is highly self-centred on Facebook, but interacts with both other members of the Brazilian right-wing and with their political opponents on Twitter. Introduction As social media becomes intimately intertwined with our daily lives, it starts to permeate, in some form, every aspect of social life. Our relationships with our friends, family and colleagues, that is, the people we know, the people who are physically and emotionally close to us, are often mediated through social networks in some form. It is not surprising, then, that social media has also become part of our interactions with society at large, and thus is now an essential tool for political organization.

Brazilian President Dilma Rousseff Proceeding with Nuclear Power despite Fukushima Accident By Graziela Aronovich, Special to NotiEn The disaster at the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant in Japan has increased pressure on the Brazilian government to justify the use of nuclear power, but there is little evidence that President Dilma Rousseff’s administration plans to make any major changes to Brazil’s nuclear- power program (Programa Nuclear Brasileiro, PNB). Rousseff has made no direct public comments about the PNB since the accident in Japan, but Secretary of Science and Technology Aloizio Mercadante reiterated the government’s intention to continue the program, launched in 1985 with the inauguration of the Angra 1 power station during the administration of then President José Sarney (1985-1990).
