Méthode syllabique de perfectionnement de la lecture
Author: Cécile Patry-MorelPublisher: De Boeck Supérieur
ISBN: 9782353270750
Category : Education
Languages : fr
Pages : 132
Book Description
Cette méthode a été créée pour tous ces parents inquiets de constater qu'amener un enfant à savoir lire et orthographier correctement, dans notre société d'aujourd'hui, constitue parfois une véritable gageure. Elle fait suite à la Méthode syllabique d'apprentissage de la lecture, du même auteur, mais peut aussi être utilisée en première intention. Elle a pour objectif de permettre à l'enfant de maîtriser la lecture courante et sa compréhension simultanée et d'acquérir une orthographe précise et sûre. Des exercices ciblés, qui anticipent les difficultés, précèdent la lecture de chaque histoire, plaçant ainsi le jeune lecteur en situation valorisante de réussite. La clarté des stratégies pédagogiques, l'intérêt du thème ("La forêt du bonheur" met en scène de charmants animaux unis par la fraternité) et la richesse de l'iconographie font de ce manuel une méthode à la fois pertinente et attractive, qui s'adresse aux parents et aidants autant qu'aux professionnels du langage écrit.
Norm and Ideology in Spoken French
Author: David HornsbyPublisher: Palgrave Macmillan
ISBN: 9783030493028
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 230
Book Description
This volume offers a diachronic sociolinguistic perspective on one of the most complex and fascinating variable speech phenomena in contemporary French. Liaison affects a number of word-final consonants which are realized before a vowel but not pre-pausally or before a consonant. Liaisons have traditionally been classified as obligatoire (obligatory), interdite (forbidden) and facultative (optional), the latter category subject to a highly complex prescriptive norm. This volume traces the evolution of this norm in prescriptive works published since the 16th Century, and sets it against actual practice as evidenced from linguists’ descriptions and recorded corpora. The author argues that optional (or variable) liaison in French offers a rich and well-documented example of language change driven by ideology in Kroch’s (1978) terms, in which an elite seeks to maintain a complex conservative norm in the face of generally simplifying changes led by lower socio-economic groups, who tend in this case to restrict liaison to a small set of traditionally obligatory environments.

Efficient Learning for the Poor
Author: Helen AbadziPublisher: World Bank Publications
ISBN: 0821366890
Category : Language Arts & Disciplines
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
"Large-scale efforts have been made since the 1990s to ensure that all children of the world go to school. But mere enrollment is not sufficient, students must become fluent in reading and calculation by the end of grade 2. Fluency is needed to process large amounts of text quickly and use the information for decisions that may ultimately reduce poverty. State-of-the-art brain imaging and cognitive psychology research can help formulate effective policies for improving the basic skills of low-income students. This book integrates research into applications that extend from preschool brain development to the memory of adult educators. In layman?'s terms, it provides explanations and answers to questions such as: Why do children have to read fast before they can understand what they read? How do health, nutrition, and stimulation influence brain development? Why should students learn basic skills in their maternal language? Is there such a thing as an untrained teacher? What signs in a classroom show whether students are getting a quality education? How must information be presented in class so that students can retain it and use it? What training techniques are most likely to help staff put their learning into use? This book would be useful to policymakers, donor agency staff, teacher trainers, supervisors, and inspectors, as well as university professors and students."
Smaller, Quicker, Cheaper

Category : Education

Pages : 196
Book Description
The effective use of educational assessments is fundamental to improving learning. However, effective use does not refer only to the technical parameters or statistical methodologies. Learning assessments in use todaywhether large-scale or household surveys or hybrid (smaller, quicker, cheaper or SQC)have varied uses and purposes. The present volume provides a review of learning assessments, their status in terms of the empirical knowledge base, and some new ideas for improving their effectiveness, particularly for those children most in need. It is argued here that SQC learning assessments have the potential to enhance educational accountability, increase transparency, and support a greater engagement of stakeholders with an interest in improving learning. In addition, countries need a sustained policy to guide assessment choices, including a focus on poor and marginalized populations.

World Development Report 2018

Languages : en
Pages : 482
Book Description
Every year, the World Bank’s World Development Report (WDR) features a topic of central importance to global development. The 2018 WDR—LEARNING to Realize Education’s Promise—is the first ever devoted entirely to education. And the time is right: education has long been critical to human welfare, but it is even more so in a time of rapid economic and social change. The best way to equip children and youth for the future is to make their learning the center of all efforts to promote education. The 2018 WDR explores four main themes: First, education’s promise: education is a powerful instrument for eradicating poverty and promoting shared prosperity, but fulfilling its potential requires better policies—both within and outside the education system. Second, the need to shine a light on learning: despite gains in access to education, recent learning assessments reveal that many young people around the world, especially those who are poor or marginalized, are leaving school unequipped with even the foundational skills they need for life. At the same time, internationally comparable learning assessments show that skills in many middle-income countries lag far behind what those countries aspire to. And too often these shortcomings are hidden—so as a first step to tackling this learning crisis, it is essential to shine a light on it by assessing student learning better. Third, how to make schools work for all learners: research on areas such as brain science, pedagogical innovations, and school management has identified interventions that promote learning by ensuring that learners are prepared, teachers are both skilled and motivated, and other inputs support the teacher-learner relationship. Fourth, how to make systems work for learning: achieving learning throughout an education system requires more than just scaling up effective interventions. Countries must also overcome technical and political barriers by deploying salient metrics for mobilizing actors and tracking progress, building coalitions for learning, and taking an adaptive approach to reform.
