  • From the Editor
    From the Editor Dear E-mentor readers, We are thrilled to observe that our efforts to publish E-mentor journal in English has met such a great interest. That is the fourth edition of the jour- nal prepared and published within the scope of a grant funded by the Polish Ministry of Science and Higher Education. We do hope to be able to continue the project of issuing the international version of E-mentor in the following years as it has proved to be a success. In the current edition, one may distinguish two main directions of consid- eration. The first one refers to the role of information and communication technologies both in education and in business. The latter reflects the chal- lenges that the logistics industry faces nowadays due to the ‘disruptive’ role of IT. Sensors, robots, automation, cloud computing, data analysis, 3D print- ing, autonomous vehicles, artificial intelligence, digital twins or blockchain technology are the examples of disruption mentioned by the author of the paper. Concerning the university, IT appears in the context of adaptive learning and its advantages analyzed by the team of the authors from the University of Central Florida and the Colorado Technical University, with Professor Charles Dziuban as a leader. IT is also present in the papers concerning foreign language learning by the use of videoconferences, instant messaging apps, and international collaboration tools. The concept of professional development through the online course is another example of using IT for academic purposes. Last but not least, is the proposal of an app aimed at eliminating the accessibility barriers, in this case – in Art education.

DESCRIPTORS *Curriculum Development; Elementary Secondary Education; *Fused Curriculum; *Integrated Curriculum; *Interdisciplinary Approach; Program Effectiveness; Unified Studies Curriculum ABSTRACT This document describes a variety of curriculum integration options ranging from concurrent teaching of related subjects to fusion of curriculum focus to residential study focusing on daily living; from 2-week units to year-long courses. Suggestions are offered for choosing proper criteria for successful curriculum integration, dealing with the attitudes of key individuals and groups; and establishing validity. A step-by-step approach to integration is presented, proceeding from selection of an organizing center to a scope and sequence of guiding questions to a matrix of activities for developing integrated units of study. A distinction is made between curriculum-content and metacurriculum--those learning skills helpful in acquiring the curriculum content being taught and in developing the capacity to think and learn independently. The book illuminates the value of higher-order thinking and learning skills and provides a vehicle for their integration into curriculum.

  • The Influence of Teacher Media Images on Professional Teacher Identities 1 Abstract
    The Influence of Teacher Media Images on Professional Teacher Identities Davina Kirby UCL, Institute of Education PhD 1 Declaration I, Davina Kirby confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. Word count (exclusive of appendices and references) 91,567 2 Acknowledgements I would like to thank Professor Gary McCulloch and Doctor Jon Swain who were extremely supportive PhD supervisors over the past six years and, of course, Mr Chips. 3 ABSTRACT This study is a life history exploration into teachers’ responses to representations of teachers in media (television, film and reality documentaries), and the influence media have on the construction of professional teacher identities including teachers’ relationships with their students as part of their daily practice. Few studies have been carried out from the perspective of British teachers using narrative research methods. This research uniquely addresses teachers’ reactions to the reality documentaries that have recently emerged based on teachers and schools, many of which have been located in the UK. The research was conducted in my own school, a girls’ comprehensive secondary school in London, with a mixed sixth form from 2012 to 2014. 17 teachers were interviewed in depth, twice each, concluding with 7 of them for focus group interviews. The research showed that teachers reflect on their professional identity using teacher images in media as a stimulus in their narratives. The research demonstrated evidence of teachers developing their narratives from the start to the end, and some sticking to scripted, although rich, narratives throughout the research.

I’d finally arrived at the end of the trail, in the last place I expected to find him—not deep in the wilderness he was said to haunt, but in the dim lobby of an old hotel on the edge of a dusty desert town.! “Sí, El Caballo está ,” the desk clerk said, nodding. Yes, the Horse is here. “For real?” After hearing that I’d just missed him so many times, in so many bizarre locations, I’d begun to suspect that Caballo Blanco was nothing more than a fairy tale, a local Loch Ness mons-truo dreamed up to spook the kids and fool gullible gringos. “He’s always back by five,” the clerk added. “It’s like a ritual.” I didn’t know whether to hug her in relief or high-five her in triumph. I checked my watch. That meant I’d actually lay eyes on the ghost in less than … hang on. “But it’s already after six.” The clerk shrugged. “Maybe he’s gone away.” I sagged into an ancient sofa. I was filthy, famished, and defeated. I was exhausted, and so were my leads. Some said Caballo Blanco was a fugitive; others heard he was a boxer who’d run off to punish himself after beating a man to death in the ring.
