Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to present an overview of textbook research at the Institute of psychology, intended to postulate socio-cultural approach to textbook. Shifting the textbook from classical pedagogical-psychological context into the broader and more inspiring cultural context, has led to the conceptualization of textbook as a cultural-supportive system of individual development. We consider firstly, the theoretical background of this conception, founded in Vygotskian idea of cultural mediation of development and then, its operationalization through the concept of cultural-supportive tools. The transfer from theory to practice is presented through the most important practical implications, such as defining the genre specificities of textbook and principles of educational design of textbooks. As a distinctive issue, we also consider the way this approach to textbook (theoretical articulation, analytical concepts, and practical implications) contributes to development of socio-cultural paradigm in psychology.

Abstract:
This is an attempt to place the problem of textbook theory into a new frame of reference provided by cultural-historical theory of development, using the idea about cultural-historical mediation of individual development and concept of CST as a basic analytical concepts. The new frame of reference introduces a new language on textbooks, opening a range of new research problems, while dealing with the old ones in a new and more complex way. Textbook is shifted from the usual pedagogic-didactic setting and placed in a more basic and cultural context. The paper is an attempt to bring the concept of cultural tools to a completely operational level, as well as to test the actual power of that concept by identifying CST in textbooks. Furthermore, this paper is an attempt elaborate the forms of social assistance that constitute the zone of proximal development, seen as the characteristics of joint activities of the child and a more competent participant (which is "hidden?, i.e., indirectly present, in this case). Vygotsky never specified the forms of social assistance, but rather gave general prescriptions (Moll, 1990), thus presenting one of the central theoretical and practical tasks for the followers of his ideas.

Abstract:
This research explores whether classroom life (CL), textbooks (TE), and learning initiative (LI) are mediators between instruction (P) and science performance, as well as whether these mechanisms are moderated by gender. 484 eighth grade students completed the questionnaire with four subscales of P, LI, TE, and CL. For the needs of triangulation and complementarity, three focus group interviews were conducted later. Based on mediation analysis and multi-group structural equation modeling, it was found that 1) the direct effects of P on LI, P on CL, P on TE, and LI on science performance are significant, while the other direct effects are insignificant; 2) comparing to the male group, the direct effect of P on LI in the female group is larger; 3) characteristics hindering students’ science learning include: the pace of a lesson is too fast, pictures and experiments are less in the textbook, and top students and low proficiency students are uncooperative. Findings expose that instruction significantly influence students’ science performance, and this impact is completely mediated by students’ learning initiatives. The relation between instruction and learning initiative is stronger in the female group. Textbooks can be useless in the context that instruction does not match students' learning ability. Keywords: eighth-grade students, gender difference, mediation analysis, science performance

Abstract:
The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages: Learning, Teaching, Assessment (CEFR) has since its inception in 2001 served as a guideline not only for teachers and students, but also for curriculum writers, test developers, and textbook authors. CEFR was only translated into Slovenian in 2011. The key principle of CEFR is an action-oriented approach that defines the communicative competence of an individual on the basis of the language activities of reception (listening, reading), production (spoken and written), interaction (spoken), and mediation. Each individual skill is defined by descriptors for levels A1-C2. The aim is to ensure more transparency in the process of language teaching and learning and at the same time to enable students to develop their foreign-language communication competence in an efficient way. Given that foreign language textbooks greatly influence the way a foreign language is taught, the article tries to determine how the students’ lexical competence at different levels (as defined by CEFR) is developed with the aid of some of the most commonly used German language textbooks.

Abstract:
Este artículo describe la práctica docente que llevó a cabo una profesora de sexto grado de primaria (Plan 93) en la materia de español. Específicamente, se analizan las producciones escritas (resúmenes) de los estudiantes y el desarrollo de las actividades que se llevaron a cabo como parte de la elaboración de una lección del libro de texto. Se identificó que la mediación docente influye en la producción de los escritos, pero no de forma determinante debido a que los estudiantes se enfrentaron al dilema de conjugar la imprecisión de la instrucción oral del docente con las recomendaciones detalladas del guión didáctico, generando así producciones distintas a las que el guión solicitaba, pero que aun así retomaban ambas instrucciones. Por otro lado, el análisis de las producciones escritas permite explorar tanto la comprensión lectora de los estudiantes (acerca del texto que resumieron) como la estructura de los resúmenes (escrito solicitado por el guión didáctico del libro de texto) y rastrear la estrategia que siguió cada estudiante para producir su texto. El resultado del análisis de los escritos permitió explorar y reflexionar sobre los procedimientos que siguió cada estudiante para realizar un resumen, lo que a nivel microgenético podría ser representativo de actividades cognitivas de diferente orden.AbstractThis article describes the teaching practices used by a sixth grade teacher in a primary school to teach Spanish to her students (Plan 93). Specifically, we analyse the student’s written work (summary of a text) as well as the development of activities taken from a Spanish textbook. Teacher mediation is identified as influencing student’s writing however it was not the only determining factor shaping their work. The data suggest that students faced the dilemma of combining the imprecision of the teacher’s oral instruction with the detailed recommendations of the textbook instructions. This tended to generate written texts on the part of the students which, while diverging from textbook instructions to meet oral instructions, still manage to capture both sets of didactic requirements (oral and written). In addition, analysis of the written work provides opportunities to explore both the reading comprehension of students (in relation to the summarized text), as well as the structure of the abstracts (requested by the textbook instructions). This allows us to identify and trace strategies used by students to produce theirtexts. The analysis provides an opportunity to explore and reflect on the processes used by students to summarize a text which might be relevant, on a micro genetic level, to cognitive activity of a different order.Recibido: 11 de febrero de 2011Aceptado: 04 de agosto de 2011

Abstract:
The paper explores the nature and role of divine transcendence in Maimonides by focusing on the figure of Job as he is understood by him. In the first part, I discuss Maimonides’ diagnosis of Job’s suffering. In the second, I focus on Maimonides’ analysis of the nature of its defeat, and the manners in which that defeat involves the mediation of divine transcendence and hiddenness. In the third, I discuss some of the difficulties involved within the picture presented in the second part, namely, Maimonides’ seeming commitment to two incompatible conceptions of divine transcendence. I argue that the incompatible accounts need not be harmonized since the Guide of the Perplexed is not a textbook that attempts to provide a doctrine concerning the nature of divine transcendence and its relation to the world. Rather, its purpose is to present a riddle, the great riddle of divine transcendence, around which Jewish life, as he understands it, is built. This riddle, for Maimonides, cannot be solved or dissolved; rather, it has to be recognized and embraced.

Abstract:
The purpose of this study is to design a structural model explaining how elementary students use digital textbooks on mobile devices. This study extends the technology acceptance model framework, with self-efficacy, learning motivation, learning strategies, and parent education level as external variables. Results show that perceived usefulness was a significant mediating factor for students’ actual usage of digital textbook on mobile devices. Self-efficacy and learning strategies influence self-reported actual usage through perceived usefulness and perceived ease of use. In addition, parent education level has a significant influence on students’ self-efficacy and especially learning motivation. These findings have broadened research on technology acceptance with emphasis on a more learning-centered framework that focuses on the learners’ characteristics and their unique contexts when using digital textbooks via mobile devices.

Avaliações externas mostram que os alunos brasileiros apresentam dificuldades para a aprendizagem matemática e apontam que a atuação docente é uma das variáveis que potencializam o fracasso escolar. Neste contexto, realizamos esta pesquisa de cunho teórico-bibliográfico e documental, que buscou estudar a “Teoria da Metodologia da Mediação Dialética (M.M.D.)” (ARNONI, 2018), em que a contradição é inerente à mediação, na qual, por meio da linguagem, veicula o conceito educativo ensinado entre professor e aluno, dialetizando-o via etapas metodológicas da M.M.D., promovendo a aprendizagem conceitual do aluno. Daí o questionamento: a linguagem do livro didático de Matemática, que oficialmente determina o modelo de aula na educação escolar, promove o estabelecimento da mediação dialética entre o professor e os alunos? Optamos pela análise da linguagem gráfica, cuja função é a de facilitar a compreensão do conceito pelo aluno, sendo utilizada para complementar o texto verbal. Com relação aos resultados da pesquisa, tornaram-se evidentes as limitações enfrentadas pelo autor: por um lado, o fato de ele desconhecer o conhecimento matemático de seus usuários – professor e aluno –, o que dificulta ou inviabiliza a compreensão do que está proposto; e, por outro lado, o fato de ele não apresentar o conceito matemático no manual do professor, em especial, nos primeiros anos do ensino básico, cuja formação inicial é pela Pedagogia, que não tem a obrigatoriedade de ensinar os conceitos científicos das áreas de conhecimento que compõem a grade curricular do ensino básico. É evidente, também, a dificuldade de ilustrar adequadamente a linguagem científica do conceito matemático, limitando as possibilidades de exploração de conceitos. Na perspectiva da mediação dialética, o livro didático oficialmente retira do professor a possibilidade de ele conscientemente planejar, desenvolver e avaliar sua atividade educativa.
External evaluations show that Brazilian students present difficulties for mathematical learning and indicate that teaching performance is one of the variables that potentiate school failure. In this context, we conducted this theoretical-bibliographic and documentary research, which aimed to study the "Theory of Methodology of Dialectical Mediation (M.M.D.)" (ARNONI, 2018), in which contradiction is inherent to mediation, in which, through language, conveys the educational concept taught between teacher and student, dialecting it via methodological stages of the M.M.D., promoting the conceptual learning of the student. Hence the questioning: does the language of the Mathematics textbook, which officially determines the lesson model in school education, promote the establishment of dialectical mediation between teacher and students? We opted for the analysis of the graphic language, whose function is to facilitate the student's understanding of the concept, being used to complement the verbal text. With respect to the results of the research, became evident the limitations faced by the author: on the one hand, the fact that he does not know the mathematical knowledge of its users – teachers and students – which makes it difficult or impossible to understand what is proposed; and, on the other hand, the fact that he does not present the mathematical concept in the teacher's manual, especially in the first years of elementary education, whose initial formation is by Pedagogy, which does not have the obligation to teach the scientific concepts of the areas of knowledge that make up the curriculum grid of elementary education. It is evident, also, the difficulty of adequately illustrating the scientific language of the mathematical concept, limiting the possibilities of exploring concepts. In the perspective of dialectical mediation, the textbook officially removes from the teacher the possibility of him consciously planning, developing and evaluating his educational activity.

This study, conducted in the area of Applied Linguistics, specifically related to English language learning and teaching and teacher education, aims to investigate the representations that English teachers reveal upon textbooks. In order to achieve this goal, this study is grounded on the theory of Social Representations based essentially on Moscovici (2012) and also on other authors that discuss the concept as Spink (1995), Jodelet (2001), Ramos e Lessa (2010), among others; studies related textbooks in the perspective of learning and teaching, based on Cunningsworth (1984), Lajolo (1996), Coracini (1999), Soares (1999), Graves (2000), Richards (2002) e Tomlinson (2011); and the concept of mediation according to Vygtosky (1934/1984), and authors that discuss this concept, as Cole and Scribner (1984), Lantolf e Appel (1996), Wertsch, Del Rio e Avarez (1998), Lantolf (2001), Cole (2003), Daniels (2003), among others. This research is conducted according to the methodological framework of case study by Stake (1998) and it was developed in eleven schools of the public school system in four cities of the interior of Mato Grosso. Fifteen English teachers from elementary and secondary schools participated in the research. The data gathering was done by administering an online questionnaire. Based upon the questionnaire answers, the data analysis was carried out according to the Content Analysis Model by Bardin (2011). The results obtained revealed that the teachers representations point out the class textbook is an auxiliary tool, and a material of support, and that it serves to provide for activities, texts and content. Other representations revealed that the textbook is also a reference for teachers who can look for resources in it to enrich their class or to adapt teaching approaches to the needs of their students; in this perspective the textbook can be an input for the teacher to create other possibilities of instruction. Among the advantages, it was shown that the textbook offers the learner contact with the idiom reinforcing the representation that the textbook is also known as a tool that provides for such a contact. Among the limitations, the use of a textbook as the only resource in class was pointed out as limiting the learning development. In addition to this limitation another one revealed was that the textbook does not meet students needs. It was concluded that the representations identified are important for teacher education mainly regarding the use of the textbook, pointing out to the urge of promoting work that encourage the adaptation of this tool with its effective use for the development of teaching alternatives mainly directed to the students learning
Este estudo, inserido na área de Linguística Aplicada, voltada para o ensino-aprendizagem de inglês e formação de professores, teve como objetivo investigar as representações de professoras de inglês sobre o livro didático. Para a consecução desse objetivo, o estudo utilizou como aporte teórico a teoria das representações sociais fundamentada principalmente em Moscovici (2012) e autores que também discutem esse conceito como Spink (1995), Jodelet (2001), Ramos e Lessa (2010), entre outros; estudos sobre o livro didático na perspectiva de ensino-aprendizagem, baseado em Cunningsworth (1984), Lajolo (1996), Coracini (1999), Soares (1999), Graves (2000), Richards (2002) e Tomlinson (2011) e, o conceito de mediação com base em Vygotsky (1934/1984) e autores que discutem esse conceito como Cole e Scribner (1984), Lantolf e Appel (1996), Wertsch, Del Rio e Avarez (1998), Lantolf (2001), Cole (2003), Daniels (2003), entre outros. A pesquisa insere-se no quadro metodológico de um estudo de caso de Stake (1998) e foi desenvolvida em onze escolas da rede pública de ensino em quatro cidades do interior de Mato Grosso. Dela participaram quinze professoras de inglês do Ensino Fundamental e Médio. Os dados foram coletados por meio de um questionário online. Com base nas respostas do questionário, a análise dos dados foi realizada por meio da Análise de Conteúdo de Bardin (2011). Os resultados obtidos demonstraram que as representações das professoras apontam o livro didático como sendo uma ferramenta auxiliar e um material de apoio e que é usado para fornecer atividades, textos e conteúdos. Outras representações são que o livro didático serve de referência para o professor, que pode buscar nele recursos para enriquecer sua aula, ou adaptar as propostas didáticas às necessidades de seus alunos; nessa perspectiva, o livro didático parece insumo para o professor criar outras possibilidades de ensino. Entre as vantagens, as representações destacam que o livro didático oferece ao aluno contato com o idioma, reforçando a representação de que o livro didático é também concebido como ferramenta que possibilita esse contato. Entre as representações quanto ao uso do livro didático, as professoras apontaram que o uso do livro didático como único recurso nas aulas é um fator limitador do desenvolvimento de aprendizagem. Além dessa limitação, outra representação revelada foi que o livro didático não atende às necessidades dos alunos. Concluiu-se que as representações identificadas são importantes para a formação de professores, principalmente quanto ao seu uso, apontando para a urgência da promoção de trabalhos que incentivem a adaptação dessa ferramenta, com seu aproveitamento efetivo para o desenvolvimento de alternativas de ensino voltadas, principalmente, à aprendizagem dos alunos

Ce travail de recherche questionne la pratique enseignante, l’identité et la construction du rapport au savoir du professeur d’espagnol travaillant dans un lycée en France à l’aide de supports variés. Les documents qui attirent toute notre attention, sont ceux qui traitent des différentes révolutions et dictatures survenues en Amérique Latine ou de la Guerre Civile et du Franquisme en Espagne. Ces sujets font partie intégrante des contenus culturels mis en place par le curriculum institutionnalisé en classe de Seconde, Première et Terminale. L’objet de cette recherche vise la compréhension de ce qui est ambigu, imperceptible ou inconnu de la pratique lors de la médiation des contenus culturels ici évoqués. Il s’agit de nous aventurer et d’explorer les représentations employées par l’enseignant dans sa pratique professionnelle et dans son rapport au savoir sur ces contenus culturels, en tant qu’objet de désir et de souffrance. Cette caractéristique permet d’entrevoir les mécanismes de la construction de savoir et de sa médiation influencés par des facteurs conscients et inconscients relatifs à la personnalité et à l’histoire du sujet tels que ses fantasmes, les mécanismes de défense, les attentes, sa conception de la vie, ses rapports aux autres, l’image qu’il a de lui-même et celle qu’il veut donner aux autres

COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DO PESSOAL DE ENSINO SUPERIOR
Esta tese discute aspectos relativos à mudança discursiva que vem ocorrendo no campo da educação em ciências, na qual a finalidade de educação para a cidadania assume uma posição central. Com o objetivo de identificar e situar as tensões inerentes a essas mudanças e as perspectivas sobre cidadania que aí se inscrevem, nos debruçamos sobre as relações que se estabelecem nas ações de regulação governamental da produção de livros didáticos para a educação pública brasileira. Para isso, nos apoiamos no arcabouço teórico-metodológico da análise crítica do discurso, perspectiva que considera os textos como integrantes das práticas sociais e busca discernir como os discursos tomam parte e orientam as mudanças. Esta visão enfatiza o caráter socialmente e historicamente situado dos textos e destaca relação dialética entre os discursos e as práticas sociais, ou seja, os textos modulam as práticas sociais, ao mesmo tempo em que são modulados por elas. A proposta metodológica da ACD - no que tange a abordagem das relações discursivas que se configuram nos eventos sociais - opera com o conceito de interdiscursividade e as categorias de discursos, gêneros e estilos, elaboradas a partir do diálogo com as contribuições dos estudos da linguagem desenvolvidos por Bakhtin, Foucault, Halliday e Bernstein e das noções de ideologia e hegemonia. Com base nessa perspectiva analítica abordamos os discursos sobre educação em ciências e cidadania que se inscrevem nos textos do Programa Nacional dos Livros Didáticos, a política governamental de avaliação e compra dos livros didáticos para a educação pública e os textos dos livros de ciências no sentido de apreender os sentidos que a cidadania adquire nesta cadeia de textos. Nossas análises apontam para uma recontextualização dos discursos sobre ciência e cidadania que circulam no campo da educação em ciências no texto do PNLD. Nesse movimento, os debates do campo da pesquisa em educação em ciências são recontextualizados na forma de uma retórica de conclusões, por meio de uma série de prescrições e asserções, adotando uma estratégia comunicativa típica das reformas, baseada na asserção de rupturas e substituições de um modelo por outro, que apagam as tensões inerentes às mudanças. De modo diferente, no caso dos livros didáticos analisados nossas análises apontam que estas tensões estão profundamente marcadas nos textos, o que ressalta o caráter de luta hegemônica entre as práticas estabelecidas e as tentativas de mudança.
This thesis discusses aspects relating to the discursive change that is occurring in the field of science education, in which the purpose of citizenship assumes a central position. With the purpose of identifying and situating the tensions inherent to these changes and the different perspectives on citizenship, we discuss the relations established in the governmental regulation actions of school science textbooks production. Our analysis were based on the Critical Discourse Analysis framework, an methodological approach that considers texts as components of social practices and searches on comprehend how discourses figures in these practices and orientate social changes. In this perspective, texts are pointed out as a social and historical construction and in a dialectical relation with discourses and social practices. Critical discourse Analysis methodological framework works with de concept of interdiscursivity and the categories of discourses, genres and styles, elaborated in the dialogue with the contributions of the language studies developed by Mikhail Bakhtin, Michel Foucault, Michael Halliday and Basil Bernstein and with the notions of ideology and hegemony. Based on this framework, our analysis of the discourses on science education and citizenship were performed in a set of texts of the Programa Nacional do Livro Didático (PNLD), the public policy of evaluation and purchase of school textbooks and in a set extracted from the textbooks, with the goal of apprehending the meanings of citizenship in this textual chain. Our analysis points to a recontextualization of the debates on science and citizenship performed in the field of science education research in PNLD’s texts. In these movements, the debates are recontextualized in the form of a set of prescriptions and assertions, adopting a communicative strategy typical of the educational reforms, based on ruptures and replacements, which wipes off the tensions inherent to changes. Differently, the analysis of the textbooks points that these tensions are deeply marked on the text, which stresses the character of hegemonic struggle between the established practices and the attempts to change.

Abstract:
En convoquant le concept de double médiation, cognitive et didactico-pédagogique, définie par Lenoir (1995), nous avons été amenée à présenter le manuel scolaire en sciences à l'école élémentaire, comme un « maître de papier ». A partir, d'une part de ce nous avons désigné comme un « conflit interne de médiation », d'autre part d'une réflexion sur l'enseignement des sciences à l'école, où consultation documentaire et investigation empirique s'épaulent mutuellement, nous avons questionné l'offre éditoriale. Celle-ci se révèle peu performante comme instrument d'apprentissage en sciences et offre une vitrine de pratiques potentielles de classe qui confortent les pratiques réelles. Par ailleurs, en nous appuyant sur le concept « d'instrument subjectif » au sens de Rabardel (2005), nous avons étudié des usages de cet instrument au moyen d'analyses d'entretiens avec 13 enseignants. Nous avons ainsi caractérisé les « genèses instrumentales » de chacun de ces enseignants et dégagé des « figures d'utilisation » du manuel. Celles-ci nous renseignent en particulier sur les nœuds de difficultés que rencontrent les maîtres dans la pratique des activités scientifiques à l'école et font apparaître des pratiques enseignantes placées sous le registre du « primat de l'empirie » et peu favorables à la construction d'un rapport second au monde. En croisant ces deux types de résultats, nous proposons de redonner un statut au livre pour l'élève en sciences et donnons des outils pour concevoir des aides didactiques à l'intention des enseignants en appui à une formation d'enseignants centrée sur des objectifs fondamentaux
Calling on the concept of double mediation, of a cognitive and didactic/pedagogical nature, as defined by Lenoir (1995), we were brought to present science textbooks in primary schools as “paper teachers”. We have questioned the editorial offer on the combined basis of what we defined as an internal "conflict of mediation ", and a reflection carried out on the teaching of science at a primary school level where documentary consulting and empirical investigation support each other. The editorial offer proves to be a poor learning tool to teach science and provides a showcase of potential teaching practices in the classroom which back up the real practices. Moreover, relying on the concept of “subjective instrument” as described by Rabardel (2005), we have studied the use of this tool through the analysis of post-class interviews led with 13 teachers. We have thus been able to characterize the “instrumental genesis” of each of these teachers and have highlighted the ways in which a textbook is used. This analysis gave us valuable information about the difficulties teachers encounter in their practice of science in primary schools and delineate teaching practices which are related to the “supremacy of the empirical approach” and do not contribute to the construction of a secondary relationship to the world. Crossing these two types of results, we suggest restoring a status to the pupil's textbook in science and give tools to create teaching aids for the teachers supporting a type of teacher training centered on fundamental objectives

Abstract:
The study describes and evaluates how Grade 7 teachers in the Mashonaland East Province of Zimbabwe used the Step in New Primary Mathematics Grade 7 textbooks in their teaching, and the impact it had on mathematics teaching and learning. The purpose of the study was to investigate how the teachers used the mathematics textbooks and to suggest areas of improvement. These textbooks were distributed to all the primary schools in Zimbabwe in 2010, under the donor-driven Education Transition Fund. This curriculum initiative sought to address the severe textbook shortage and to improve the performance of the learners. The study examined the ways the teachers interacted with and mediated the textbooks in mathematics lessons, what material they used or did not use from the textbook, how they used it, and why they used it in the specific ways. In order to achieve this objective, an empirical study of a sample of grade 7 teachers in the province was undertaken. Social constructivism was the main theory that guided the study. Stratified purposeful sampling was employed to select three out of eight districts in the province, and to select eighteen schools from the three districts for participation in the study. Each district contributed the same number of questionnaire respondents (n=30) and interview respondents (n=2). A mixed methods design, which combined a questionnaire, a semi-structured interview and non-participant lesson observation, was adopted. The results indicated that the use of these textbooks raised the teachers’ and learners’ motivation, created some opportunities for teacher learning, and improved the learners’ performance in mathematics. However, the teachers’ low confidence levels in teaching some topics, the absence of regular staff development programmes, and also textual errors had a negative effect on how the textbooks were used. The teachers did not cover all the textbook content, neither did they demonstrate or encourage the learners to use alternative strategies to solve the problems in the textbooks. A number of teachers showed resistance to the use of these textbooks. This study provided evidence that points to an urgent need for the improved quality of mathematics textbooks, as well as an improvement in the teachers’ competencies, namely by placing greater emphasis on the use of textbooks in pre-service and in-service teacher training programmes. Based on the results of the study, a framework for teachers’ effective resource utilization is proposed.

Abstract:
v anglickém jazyce: FRENCH LANGUAGE WITHIN THE CZECH EDUCATION ENVIRONMENT 1847 -1948 The objective of this dissertation thesis is to analyse the position of French language as a regular school subject taught in the Czech education environment, with focus on the era of the years 1847 - 1948. This interval was chosen intentionally to demonstrate the development and transformation of the position of French language, from the time it appeared in school curriculum as an obligatory subject, through the golden age of Francophony in the interwar Czechoslovakia of the 1930s, up until the year 1948 when the structure of taught foreign languages changed and French language lost its significant position due to the changes in political regime and the post-February policy of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia. The thesis is divided into three theoretical sections which represent different points of view on period French language teaching. The initial section includes characteristics of the Czech education environment with regard to the specific types of public schools where it was taught, as well as references to the most significant education reforms which were shaping the school system during the period concerned. The aim of the opening section is to answer the question of where and under which...

Abstract:
As healthcare systems are challenged to respond to the linguistic and cultural diversity that accompanies migrations, a common response is the deployment of the figure of the ‘intercultural mediator’ (ICM). This chapter will explore some of the key issues related to intercultural mediation that complicate the ICM being an effective component of interculturally competent mental health care. We provide a background of the rationale for the existence of the ICM and outline some of the serious factors, both conceptual and practical, which complicate matters, and explore the specific role possibilities for effective functioning in mental health care settings.

Abstract:
In 1995 Binjamin Wilkomirski published a book that was to become a source of fierce controversy. Fragments: Memories of a Wartime Childhood recounts Wilkomirski’s experiences of surviving alone two concentration camps as a small Jewish child from Poland. Having lived most of his life as Bruno Dössekker, the adopted son of a Swiss couple, Wilkomirski claimed to have discovered his true identity through a long psychoanalytic process, which led to writing his story. The book quickly received popular and critical acclaim and won a number of literary prizes, including the National Jewish Book Award. What happened next is fairly well known: a 1998 newspaper article cast doubt as to the authenticity of Wilkomirski’s account, revealing instead the story of a Bruno Grosjean, the illegitimate son of an unmarried woman who had given him away for adoption in Switzerland. The book’s publisher then commissioned a historian to look into the allegations, which were consequently found to be correct. The book previously described as “achingly beautiful” and “morally important” was now declared as fake and its author a fraud. The Wilkomirski case has since figured in debates on Holocaust memory as a cautionary tale about the facility with which one can pass as a survivor— and convince a worldwide audience. The book was discontinued as memoir only later to be released in tandem with the historical study finding it false. While Wilkomirski’s memories may have been fabricated, the way they were depicted in the book is a fairly accurate description of traumatic memory. Even if the content of these memories is made- up their structure very much conforms to a psychology textbook entry on post- trauma. Evidently Wilkomirski was aware of this fact, as in the afterword to the book, he urges others in a similar situation to “cry out their own traumatic childhood memories.”

Abstract:
Perhaps no field of medicine faces more ethical dilemmas than palliative care, ranging from age-old questions (such as what constitutes ‘a good death’) to novel dilemmas stemming from technological innovation to a conflict of values in a multicultural context. Failure to identify and resolve these issues can fracture relationships and exacerbate suffering. Precisely because matters of morality are not quantifiable like other areas of medicine—and each person is a moral agent with their own beliefs and values—ethics may appear to be the one aspect of healthcare where everyone (regardless of training or role) possesses the tools to solve problems; in practice, however, it often seems that no one does. This chapter defines ethical dilemmas and equips clinicians with tools to recognize dilemmas that are ethical in nature, and those that only appear to be. Once identified as ethical, a structured approach consciously modelled on clinical assessment ensures that all relevant considerations are taken into account. Through effective communication and thoughtful use of additional resources (such as mediation, family meetings, and second opinions), the dilemma often can be resolved. When this does not occur, ethics consultation plays a valuable role both as prelude and complement to palliative care consultation. In situations where the best response remains unclear—or if clear, impossible to implement—clinicians may experience moral distress, which should be identified, navigated, and optimally prevented through conscious steps.

Abstract:
Cytokines are small glycoprotein mediators that are involved in every facet of immune effector function and regulation. More than 200 cytokines have been identified, which may usefully be classified in structurally related superfamilies. They can (1) function through binding to specific receptors that in turn signal via complex transduction pathways to regulate gene expression, thereby mediating positive and negative regulatory activities; (2) operate as soluble mediators in the extracellular domain or within cells, where they may also traffic to the nucleus and exhibit dual function as transcriptional regulators; (3) be expressed initially on the cell membrane, where they may exert effector function directly in cell–cell interactions, or from which they can be subsequently cleaved to yield bioactive soluble molecules, thereby mediating autocrine and paracrine activities around their cellular source....

Abstract:
Chronic pain is prevalent in children and adolescents. The current chapter outlines an interpersonal perspective on child pain, demonstrating the central role of child and parent pain-related cognitions in the development and maintenance of chronic pain in childhood. Pain takes place within a social context: children’s expressions of pain (e.g. facial pain displays) are observed and decoded by others (parents), eliciting emotional and behavioural responses. Parents’ responses may impact child outcomes in two ways, directly by imposing activity limitations/encouraging activity engagement or indirectly through observational learning. Although personality and temperamental factors may predispose children and parents to perceive pain as more or less threatening to deal with, the model presented in this chapter focuses on proximal pain-related cognitive processes and associated behaviours that contribute to pain-related disability in children. Recent evidence suggests that perceptions of pain as highly threatening (i.e. catastrophizing) may lead to fearful reactions to pain, activity avoidant behaviours, and more disability. In parents, catastrophizing thoughts about child pain are associated with higher levels of child disability, with recent evidence implicating parent protective behaviours as a mediating mechanism.

Abstract:
Oxygen is required for most multicellular, aerobic organisms to survive and function. The vasculature provides the conduit for delivering oxygen via haemoglobin in the blood to organs, tissues, and cells. In diseases such as cancer, low tissue oxygenation or hypoxia occurs in solid tumours because of an inadequate supply of oxygen due to aberrant tumour vasculature. Hypoxia is a key feature of most solid tumours and underlies many of the processes associated with how cancer progresses; including tumour cell survival and proliferation, genetic instability, immune responses, angiogenesis, invasion and metastasis, and metabolic adaptive responses. Solid tumours contain several different cell types that respond to hypoxia within the tumour microenvironment. Hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) are a highly evolutionarily conserved family of dimeric transcription factors that are central to mediating the cellular response to hypoxia by regulating the expression of a diverse array of targets. Hypoxia and HIF activation is associated with treatment failure, resistance, and poor clinical outcomes. This chapter will provide an overview of the role of hypoxia in cancer, outline the methods used to measure hypoxia clinically, and discuss the impact of hypoxia on current front-line therapies being used to treat cancer.
