Thesis (MA)--Stellenbosch University, 2000.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: This study focuses on the use of participatory research in community development settings. Participatory research, which is normally referred to by the abbreviation PR, is a relatively new social research methodology that arose out of a general sense of dissatisfaction with the way that traditional research was being conducted in development. Participatory research consists of a large variety of related research methodologies that emphasize participation, social learning and action. Epistemologically it is founded on the m

Dans le cadre de la transition des sociétés vers le développement durable, le rôle des universités est de plus en plus mis en évidence.

Higher education in the UK has experienced unprecedented levels of expansion over the last 50 years. This expansion has been underpinned by political and social discourses that expound its value to the social and economic prosperity of the country and more recently, towards the delivery of social justice and the social mobility of individuals. Higher education institutions are channelling increasing amounts of resource into supporting these discourses, largely around widening participation and fair access agendas.

Cette thèse est une recherche didactique qui traite de la problématique de l’enseignement/apprentissage de l’écrit chez les étudiants non francophones inscrits en formation diplômante à l’université Paris 8. L’étude est partie du constat des difficultés que rencontrent ces derniers à l’écrit et de la nécessité de la maîtrise de cette compétence pour la réussite des parcours universitaires entamés. L’écrit y est défini comme un processus complexe lié au sujet écrivant, à son rapport à l’écrit et à ses représentations. C’est une recherche qualitative qui s’appuie sur trois types de données : pro

Abstract:
Cette thèse interroge la manière dont le développement durable est saisi par les concepteurs en agence d’architecture, d’urbanisme et de paysage. Elle analyse ce que les tentatives d’appropriation disent du fonctionnement de telles organisations, de leur place dans le processus de projet, et de la diversité des valeurs qui peuvent s’y développer. Basé sur l’observation in situ d’une agence parisienne d’une vingtaine de personnes entre 2010 et 2013, notre travail définit trois axes de recherche autour : des approches, contenus et statuts accordés au développement durable par les concepteurs ; d

L’objet de cette thèse est de comprendre comment travaille au jour le jour une catégorie spécifique de journalistes : ceux qui produisent la rubrique des faits-divers dans les journaux de presse quotidienne locale. Autant les articles de cette rubrique sont très lus, autant les lecteurs de quotidiens, les étudiants en journalisme et souvent même les collègues de ceux qui les écrivent ignorent tout ou presque de cette branche de la production du journal. Cette thèse envisage les articles de la rubrique comme des produits sortis d’une usine et se donne la mission de décrire la machine qui les fa

Developing students’ ability to think critically is an important goal of Swedish upper secondary school education. The aim of this thesis is to describe and analyse critical thinking at the classroom level from a didactic perspective. Using participant observation and interviews, two groups of students and their two course teachers are being studied during two months. The groups study philosophy and social studies respectively. The thesis explores in what way critical thinking is manifested in the classroom and how the teachers view critical thinking in relation to their teaching. Didactic dec

Les principes fondateurs sur lesquels les systèmes éducatifs occidentaux reposent font l’objet de nombreux débats depuis des décennies. Des études ont montré d'importantes lacunes qu'il faut résoudre (Giroux, 1988 ; Koehler et Kim, 2012 ; Shields, 2003). Il est donc primordial d’envisager des avenues structurantes qui pourraient y pallier. Afin de contribuer à cette réflexion, ce mémoire, qui se situe dans le champ de l’administration scolaire, a pour but de réfléchir sur les pratiques éducatives innovantes afin de mieux comprendre ce qui fait appui ou obstacle à l’innovation pédagogique en mi

This thesis aimed to investigate the unique relationship that exists between music and culture. More specifically, the purpose of the research was to determine to what extent culture is reflected in music teaching and learning. Understanding the effect that culture has on music knowledge transmission processes will assist in developing a framework for current music education practices to address the cultural diversity that is present in contemporary teaching and learning environments.
