Understanding and Influencing Research with Children
No full textBlack and Busch open a thoughtful dialogue about research with children, research relationships and the status and location of children in research. Particular attention is given to ethical motivations and considerations and children’s visibility in research and broader society. The chapter explores how researcher values and ethical commitments position children, determine their visibility and influence wider cultures of listening to children. The challenges and fruitfulness of research with children are discussed alongside researcher experiences and highlight the importance of ongoing conversations within research communities
The social orders of family mealtime
No full textThis study examined the everyday practices of families within the context of family mealtime to investigate how members accomplished mealtime interactions. Using an ethnomethodological approach, conversation analysis and membership categorization analysis, the study investigated the interactional resources that family members used to assemble their social orders moment by moment during family mealtimes. While there is interest in mealtimes within educational policy, health research and the media, there remain few studies that provide fine-grained detail about how members produce the social activity of having a family meal. Findings from this study contribute empirical understandings about families and family mealtime. Two families with children aged 2 to 10 years were observed as they accomplished their everyday mealtime activities. Data collection took place in the family homes where family members video recorded their naturally occurring mealtimes. Each family was provided with a video camera for a one-month period and they decided which mealtimes they recorded, a method that afforded participants greater agency in the data collection process and made available to the analyst a window into the unfolding of the everyday lives of the families. A total of 14 mealtimes across the two families were recorded, capturing 347 minutes of mealtime interactions. Selected episodes from the data corpus, which includes centralised breakfast and dinnertime episodes, were transcribed using the Jeffersonian system. Three data chapters examine extended sequences of family talk at mealtimes, to show the interactional resources used by members during mealtime interactions. The first data chapter explores multiparty talk to show how the uniqueness of the occasion of having a meal influences turn design. It investigates the ways in which members accomplish two-party talk within a multiparty setting, showing how one child "tells" a funny story to accomplish the drawing together of his brothers as an audience. As well, this chapter identifies the interactional resources used by the mother to cohort her children to accomplish the choralling of grace. The second data chapter draws on sequential and categorical analysis to show how members are mapped to a locally produced membership category. The chapter shows how the mapping of members into particular categories is consequential for social order; for example, aligning members who belong to the membership category "had haircuts" and keeping out those who "did not have haircuts". Additional interactional resources such as echoing, used here to refer to the use of exactly the same words, similar prosody and physical action, and increasing physical closeness, are identified as important to the unfolding talk particularly as a way of accomplishing alignment between the grandmother and grand-daughter. The third and final data analysis chapter examines topical talk during family mealtimes. It explicates how members introduce topics of talk with an orientation to their co-participant and the way in which the take up of a topic is influenced both by the sequential environment in which it is introduced and the sensitivity of the topic. Together, these three data chapters show aspects of how family members participated in family mealtimes. The study contributes four substantive themes that emerged during the analytic process and, as such, the themes reflect what the members were observed to be doing. The first theme identified how family knowledge was relevant and consequential for initiating and sustaining interaction during mealtime with, for example, members buying into the talk of other members or being requested to help out with knowledge about a shared experience. Knowledge about members and their activities was evident with the design of questions evidencing an orientation to coparticipant’s knowledge. The second theme found how members used topic as a resource for social interaction. The third theme concerned the way in which members utilised membership categories for producing and making sense of social action. The fourth theme, evident across all episodes selected for analysis, showed how children’s competence is an ongoing interactional accomplishment as they manipulated interactional resources to manage their participation in family mealtime. The way in which children initiated interactions challenges previous understandings about children’s restricted rights as conversationalists. As well as making a theoretical contribution, the study offers methodological insight by working with families as research participants. The study shows the procedures involved as the study moved from one where the researcher undertook the decisions about what to videorecord to offering this decision making to the families, who chose when and what to videorecord of their mealtime practices. Evident also are the ways in which participants orient both to the video-camera and to the absent researcher. For the duration of the mealtime the video-camera was positioned by the adults as out of bounds to the children; however, it was offered as a "treat" to view after the mealtime was recorded. While situated within family mealtimes and reporting on the experiences of two families, this study illuminates how mealtimes are not just about food and eating; they are social. The study showed the constant and complex work of establishing and maintaining social orders and the rich array of interactional resources that members draw on during family mealtimes. The family’s interactions involved members contributing to building the social orders of family mealtime. With mealtimes occurring in institutional settings involving young children, such as long day care centres and kindergartens, the findings of this study may help educators working with young children to see the rich interactional opportunities mealtimes afford children, the interactional competence that children demonstrate during mealtimes, and the important role/s that adults may assume as co-participants in interactions with children within institutional settings

Aplicação da teoria de Peeter Torop à tradução da obra de literatura infantil Max Und Moritz, de Wilhelm Busch, do alemão ao português do Brasil
No full textDissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-graduação em Estudos da Tradução, Florianópolis, 2009presente dissertação se ocupa da obra da literatura clássica alemã do século XIX Max und Moritz: eine Bubengeschichte in sieben Streichen, de Wilhelm Busch, a qual foi traduzida para o português unicamente em 1901, e por isso requer uma nova versão. Para conduzir a tradução, foi selecionado o teórico da tradução Peeter Torop, cujos estudos contemplam aspectos descritivos da tradução. Ele classifica o exercício da tradução em oito categorias possíveis. Essas oito categorias são aplicadas aqui em um trecho de Max und Moritz, resultando em oito exemplos de tradução. Considerando o público alvo escolhido, duas dessas categorias propostas por Torop são escolhidas, e são elas que ditam as diretrizes usadas na tradução completa do texto. Para encerrar, são apresentados os comentários das escolhas do tradutor, as quais estão baseadas em aspectos descritivos, como encontrado em Fernandes, Shavit, OConnell, por exemplo, e prescritivos, como demonstrado em Klinberg, Páscua-Febles e demais autores
Whaling Will Never Do For Me: The American Whaleman in the Nineteenth Century
No full text] just begin to find out that whaling will never do for me and have determined to leave the ship here if possible. That sentiment, expressed by a foremast hand aboard the ship Caroline in 1843, is one shared by many of the whalemen in this fascinating book. Interest in Herman Melville\u27s Moby Dick has contributed to a substantial literature on the history and lore of the industry. But not until now has the vast body of surviving whaleship logs and journals been used to paint an encompassing picture of the difficult but colorful life aboard nineteenth-century American whaling vessels.Briton Cooper Busch, author of a definitive history of the American sealing industry, in this book only incidentally discusses the actual chase for whales. His focus instead is the life of whalemen at sea, and particularly the harsh discipline that kept men aboard through long and often dispiriting years. Busch depicts the complex social world aboard ship, defining and detailing such issues as crime and punishment, competing racial elements, the social distance between officers and men, sexual behavior, and the role of women aboard ships.For oppressed, discouraged, or simply bored whalemen, several escapes existed, from the rarest of all mutiny through labor protests of various types, to individual desertion or appeal to an American consul abroad. To each of these topics Busch devotes a chapter. He also provides glimpses of those occasional moments of relief such as a Fourth of July celebration and such somber moments as a death at sea.Fascinating details and original quotations from individual whalemen make this book more than a study of general trends. For anyone with even a casual interest in whaling, it is indispensable.
Briton Cooper Busch is William R. Kenan, Jr., Professor of History at Colgate University, where he has been chairman of the department and director of the division of social sciences. He is author of eight previous books in maritime and diplomatic history.https://uknowledge.uky.edu/upk_social_history/1001/thumbnail.jp
Evidence based practice
No full textAn integral part of teaching and a principle underpinning professional practice in the early years is the importance of reflecting on and researching our own practice. For example, in Australia, the Early Years Learning Framework: Belonging, Being and Becoming identifies “ongoing learning and reflective practice” (DEEWR, 2009, p. 13) as one of the five principles distilled from theories and research evidence that underpin professional practice in the early years. Recognising teaching as encompassing the role of researching pedagogical practice highlights that teaching is not simply practical or procedural but requires intellectual work. This chapter details evidence based practice (EBP) in early years education and highlights four questions: 1. What is evidence based practice?; 2. What evidence do I draw on?; 3. How might I discern relevant evidence?; and 4. What is my part in generating research evidence
Functional Significance of Cell Volume Regulatory Mechanisms
No full textLang, Florian, Gillian L. Busch, Markus Ritter, Harald Völkl, Siegfried Waldegger, Erich Gulbins, and Dieter Häussinger. Functional Significance of Cell Volume Regulatory Mechanisms. Physiol. Rev. 78: 247–306, 1998. — To survive, cells have to avoid excessive alterations of cell volume that jeopardize structural integrity and constancy of intracellular milieu. The function of cellular proteins seems specifically sensitive to dilution and concentration, determining the extent of macromolecular crowding. Even at constant extracellular osmolarity, volume constancy of any mammalian cell is permanently challenged by transport of osmotically active substances across the cell membrane and formation or disappearance of cellular osmolarity by metabolism. Thus cell volume constancy requires the continued operation of cell volume regulatory mechanisms, including ion transport across the cell membrane as well as accumulation or disposal of organic osmolytes and metabolites. The various cell volume regulatory mechanisms are triggered by a multitude of intracellular signaling events including alterations of cell membrane potential and of intracellular ion composition, various second messenger cascades, phosphorylation of diverse target proteins, and altered gene expression. Hormones and mediators have been shown to exploit the volume regulatory machinery to exert their effects. Thus cell volume may be considered a second message in the transmission of hormonal signals. Accordingly, alterations of cell volume and volume regulatory mechanisms participate in a wide variety of cellular functions including epithelial transport, metabolism, excitation, hormone release, migration, cell proliferation, and cell death.</jats:p
Giorgio Caproni alias Wilhelm Busch
No full textSolo i germanisti associano il nome di Caproni all’unica traduzione dal tedesco in cui si cimentò, la versione italiana delle storie illustrate di Max e Moritz (1865) di Wilhelm Busch, che narrano le burle, talvolta persino crudeli, ordite da due bambini a danno di alcuni adulti. Fra i tanti traduttori italiani, Caproni si distingue per la sua notorietà come autore in proprio oltre che come traduttore, dunque il contributo si chiederà se e come l’attività poetica per così dire autonoma influenzi quella traduttiva. Anziché concentrarsi sulle difficoltà insite nel testo di partenza, ovvero sugli ostacoli da superare per renderlo accessibile a un pubblico non germanofono, l’articolo metterà in risalto la creatività di cui dà prova il testo di arrivo, saldandosi con la restante produzione di Caproni, come dimostrano taluni stilemi utilizzati. Particolarmente interessanti saranno dunque i punti in cui Caproni si prende delle libertà, adatta l’originale alla cultura di arrivo, ma soprattutto alla propria sensibilità poetica, facendosi co-autore di un’opera che per molti lettori si identifica con le sue parole.Only Germanists associate Caproni’s name with his only translation from German, the Italian version of Max and Moritz’ illustrated stories by Wilhelm Busch (1865), which tell about the - sometimes even cruel - pranks made by two children against adults. Among many Italian translators, Caproni stands out for his fame as an author himself as well as a translator. This paper investigates whether and how his poetic activity influences this translation. Instead of concentrating on the difficulties of the source text, i.e. on the obstacles to overcome to make it accessible to a non-German-speaking public, the paper will highlight the creativity inherent to the target text, which is very strictly connected with Caproni’s other production, as it is proved by his writing style. Therefore, of particular interest are those points in which Caproni takes liberties by adapting the original to the target culture and, above all, to his poetic sensitivity, so that he becomes the co-author of a work which is known to lots of readers through his words
Constructing Methodology for Qualitative Research [electronic resource] : Researching Education and Social Practices /
No full textThis book explores the webs of vulnerability in methodological decision-making that illustrate the deceptive strength of qualitative research. Each chapter will resonate with readers differently as they read themselves into the tensions and tangles of qualitative research when confronted with the challenges of estabilishing methodological frameworks for educational and social enquiry. The authors are postgraduate, early career researchers and supervisors who analyse their methodological encounters with the nimble, fluid, messy and iterative processes of qualitative research. The book flows structurally from positioning the researcher within these processes to the manoeuvring of self across necessarily selective social science disciplines in education, arts and humanities. It rejuvenates the pioneering spirit, the sense of mission and innovativeness of qualitative research.
