Abstract:
This thesis examines the discourse of careers services in UK university websites. The notion of employability has been presented and promoted by powerful groups, such as governments, organisations, the media, employers, and higher education institutions, as the remedy to the social problem of unemployment. Careers services in UK universities were given the role of ‘expert’ professionals who are there to support and guide students towards developing their employability and skills. This study examined the ideas and messages reproduced and promoted by the careers services, which could affect the

This study focussed on analysing educational policy documents to understand the history and discourse of educational policy borrowing practice in Bhutan's K-12 education system. The conceptual framework drew on theories of globalisation and the theory of discourse. An interpretivist methodology drawing on James Paul Gee's discourse analysis was employed to comprehend the education policy borrowing and policy learning practices within the K-12 education policies of Bhutan. The findings revealed that while there is a complex system of policy borrowing influenced by the phenomenon of globalisatio

Then, drawing on their recent research study on science literacy integration, the authors center on the teacher-student interactive discourses revolving around science concepts and literacy skills. They particularly examined some of the seemingly off-topic classroom dialogues.

Abstract:
The field of neuroscience has received more and more publicity over recent years, specifically by its claims to contribute to the understanding of childrens' learning, education and development. However, progress in neuroscience findings and its links with education have also been subject to controversy, particularly with regard to how far the brain can inform understanding of social processes. While educational psychologists have been identified as a discipline potentially central to the debates about neuroscience (Hall, 2004), little research has yet investigated the views of educational psy

Abstract:
The purpose of this thesis is to contextualise the interwar writing of T. S. Eliot within the broader discourse of state reform that carne to define the British welfare state.

In order to evaluate the critical tendency which suggests that Eliot's late poetry became asocial, the thesis employs post-structural discourse theory to trace a growing anxiety in his work about the very language of democratic refor

Abstract:
Teachers‟ capacity to use classroom discourse to deepen student learning through sustained conversation is considered crucial to increasing students‟ intellectual development. Learners actively construct knowledge and develop understandings from their shared experiences and via interaction with others (Driver, Asoko, Leach, Mortimer & Scott, 1994). However, talk that fosters students‟ capacity to reason is lacking in many classrooms (Alexander, 2006) and, what is more, teachers tend to control the discourse by asking a predominance of closed questions and using a question-answer recitation scr

Research is a modern practice whose production of knowledge needs to be critically and continually examined.

Transactive Discourse During Assessment Conversations on Science Learning by Homer A.

Transactive discussion is a form of negotiation between group members as they interpret the meaning of their logical statements about a topic.
