EFL/ESP teacher development and classroom innovation through teacher-initiated action research
No full textThis study is an investigation of the potential of teacher-initiated action research for
EFL/ESP teacher development and classroom innovation. The Collaborative Academic
Writing Research Project (CAWRP), on which it is based, was carried out at the ESP
Centre, Damascus University, in 1996-1997. It was in two phases, Baseline and
Main. The researcher, a teacher in the context, assumed a participatory and facilitating
role. The pedagogic problem was the teaching of research paper writing to
postgraduate students. The CAWRP was proposed to ease this problem and introduce
classroom innovation through teacher-initiated action research, the long-term aim of
which was continuous professional development. The baseline research aimed at
articulating a picture of teacher and context needs and assessing project viability. The
proposal was refined in the light of the findings, and a programme of teacher
development activities was agreed with the participants. This was implemented in the
Main Phase, which had three stages: Orientation, Research and Reporting, and
Summative Evaluation and Follow-up. The role of the researcher was to facilitate the
teachers to self-direct their professional learning and introduce needed pedagogic
innovations.
The thesis is in eight chapters and 32 appendices. Chapter One sets the scene
and introduces the study. Chapter Two focuses on the baseline investigation: its
methodology, findings, and their implications for the Main Phase study. Chapter Three
is a review of the relevant literature in the fields of teacher development and classroom
innovation. Chapter Four focuses on project design and methodology and gives more
details on the principles, values, strategies, and procedures that guided project
implementation and how they worked out in action. Chapter Five reports the findings,
focusing on the contribution of the Orientation Stage activities to the development of
the teacher group as a whole (a total of 20 out of 23 Centre teachers). Its main sources
of data are recordings, feedback questionnaires, and participant observation. Chapter
Six focuses on the teachers who carried out action research and reported on it (8 out
of the 20 Orientation Stage participants). It presents two case studies of frill
participants, starting with their entry points and showing how they developed in the
Research and Reporting Stage. One case exemplifies the experienced teachers and
those who did research individually, and the other the novices and those who worked in
collaboration. Chapter Seven reports on the participants' sununative evaluation of the
project and the effect of this evaluation on project continuity. Chapter Eight
summarises the main findings and evaluates them with reference to the literature, on
the one hand, and design principles and methodology, on the other. In this chapter, I
have looked critically at the lessons learnt from the study, discussed its significance and
limitations, and put forward some recommendations. The appendices include some of
the materials and documentary evidence used in the research
Verso un riscatto delle voci negate: il potere della narrazione e la sfida al canone occidentale in "Foe" di J.M. Coetzee e "Meursault, contre-enquête" di Kamel Daoud
No full textQuesto lavoro di tesi propone l’analisi di due romanzi che instaurano un dialogo critico con la tradizione letteraria europea attraverso una prospettiva postcoloniale: "Foe" (1986) di J. M. Coetzee, che rilegge "Robinson Crusoe" (1719) di Daniel Defoe mettendo in luce il linguaggio come strumento di potere; e "Meursault, contre-enquête" (2013) di Kamel Daoud, che si confronta con "L’Étranger" (1942) di Albert Camus, restituendo voce e identità alla figura che ne è privata nel testo originale. L’obiettivo di questo studio è dimostrare come Coetzee e Daoud, oltre a decostruire criticamente le narrazioni coloniali, le utilizzino come punto di partenza per un’indagine più ampia e articolata sul ruolo del linguaggio e della rappresentazione nella costruzione, nel mantenimento e nel possibile sovvertimento dei rapporti di potere che relegano i soggetti subalterni ai margini. La dissertazione si articola in quattro capitoli: il primo esplora le origini e l’evoluzione della teoria postcoloniale, esaminando il contributo dei suoi principali esponenti e i concetti chiave che hanno elaborato; il secondo approfondisce il contesto storico e letterario del Sudafrica e dell'Algeria; il terzo è dedicato alla figura di J. M. Coetzee e all'analisi di "Foe"; il quarto si concentra su Kamel Daoud e "Meursault, contre-enquête"; infine, nell’ultima sezione, vengono messe in luce le differenze e le analogie tra le due rielaborazioni di opere del canone occidentale.
This thesis analyzes two novels that engage in a critical dialogue with the European literary tradition through a postcolonial perspective: "Foe" by J. M. Coetzee, which reinterprets "Robinson Crusoe" by Daniel Defoe, highlighting language as a tool of power; and "Meursault, contre-enquête" by Kamel Daoud, which responds to "L’Étranger" by Albert Camus, granting a voice and an identity to a character who is deprived of them in the original text. The aim of this study is to demonstrate how Coetzee and Daoud, beyond critically deconstructing colonial narratives, use them as a starting point for a broader and more complex investigation into the role of language and representation in the construction, maintenance, and possible subversion of power relations that marginalize subaltern subjects. The dissertation is structured into four chapters: the first explores the origins and development of postcolonial theory, examining the contributions of its key figures and the main concepts they formulated; the second delves into the historical and literary contexts of South Africa and Algeria; the third is dedicated to J. M. Coetzee and the analysis of "Foe"; the fourth focuses on Kamel Daoud and "Meursault, contre-enquête"; finally, the final section highlights the differences and similarities between these two reinterpretations of works from the Western canon

SSR marker based DNA fingerprinting of Tunisian olive (Olea europaea L.) varieties
No full textThis study aimed to test the efficiency of SSR markers to identify and to differentiate a set of 26 Tunisian olive varieties maintained at four collections. SSR analysis from 10 primer pairs revealed a total of 86 polymorphic alleles with 4 to 14 alleles per locus that allowed unique genotyping of the examined varieties. The Polymorphism Information Content (PIC) values ranged from 0.548 to 0.796 (average 0.719). The efficiency was found very high with average discriminating power overall 10 loci higher than 0.9. A combination of three SSR markers (ssrOeUA-DCA9, ssrOeUA-DCA13 and ssrOeUA-DCA16) was proposed for rapid identification of analysed cultivars. Three cultivars (Gerboui, Ain Jarbouaa and Regregui) thought to be identical resulted in absolutely different SSR profiles. This research showed that SSR is a suitable and effective tool to characterise olive varieties in Tunisian germplasm collections. The outcome of this study could be useful for varietal survey and the construction of a database of all olive varieties in Tunisia
