    Professionals vs. Role professionals: Conceptualising Professionalism Among Teachers of Adults

    No full text
    Similarly to other occupational fields, professionalism in adult education is being affected by rapidsocio-political changes; dissimilarly, however, unfolding the concept of professionalism in adulteducation is more complex due to the vastness of the field itself and its pecualiar features.This contribution revisits traditional models of professionalism through the glasses of a ‘roleprofessionalism’perspective. In doing so, the authors’ main argument is that it is not appropriate toconceptualise adult education as one profession or as one professional field tout court. There existseveral occupations in the field of adult education that position themselves along a continuum.Consequently the authors suggest that professionalization among adult education practitionersshould be assessed in light of the knowledge about adult learning theories practitioners possess, theethical epistemology that guides their behaviour and the degree of trust by the adult learners, ratherthan a restrictive view on the specific occupation they hold

    Em período pós-colonial, Vimala Devi desenha a vida no interior de Goa. Tendo em vista a hegemonia da escrita anglofônica em relação à hindi na Índia, o presente texto busca realizar uma leitura de Monção, obra escrita em língua situada, como define Domingues (2008), na “margem da margem”, em um “espaço cultural aberto a discussões e interpretações”,com enfoque no performático, na realização híbrida da imagem dogoês e do estrangeiro.Pousar na projeção de uma autora que se encontra para além do cânone, portanto, compõe a motivação do presente texto.Do diálogo da presente leitura da obra com outras leituras, delineiam-se traços de modernoe de oposição a uma figura romântica de ambos os planos de performance aqui analisados. Palavras-chave: Literatura Indiana. Performance. Marginalidade.  ABSTRACT In a post-colonial period, Vimala Devi paints a life in Goa’s countryside. Taking into account the Anglophonic writing in relation to the Hindi India, the present text seeks a way of reading Monção, written in a language situated, as defined by Domingues (2008), in the “margin of the margin”, in a “cultural space open for discussions and interpretations”,while focusing on the performative, on the realization of the hybrid image from both the Goan and the foreigner. Hence, landing in the projection of an author located beyond the canon composes the motivation of the present text. From the dialogue of the present reading of the work of artwith other readings, traces of modern (art) and of opposition to a romantic figure from both performance planes analyzed here were highlighted. Keywords: Indian Literature. Performance. Marginality
