Many poor and illiterate women in reproductive years in Pakistan live in underdeveloped areas and are solely dependent on free primary health services provided by the state through the Lady Health Worker (LHW) Programme. These women need higher health and social literacy to make informed health decisions and receive inferior services from overburdened LHWs. This project aims to deliver a health and social literacy intervention by integrating Community Social Workers (CSWs) at the primary level to promote maternal health in the country. A 24-month intervention with six health and social literacy modules will be delivered by trained CSWs. Multistage randomized sampling will be used to sample 6 BHUs across six cities from six districts of Punjab, Pakistan. A total of 360 women will be sampled and assigned randomly to the experiment and control groups. Pakistan needs to catch up on its sustainable development goals for maternal health, not just due to the limitations of the existing services, but also due to the low health and social literacy of women, which prevents effective uptake. Each LHW is expected to have an estimated 1,500 women clients for multiple services, which makes support for women's literacy and awareness difficult. Integrating a partner workforce or CSWs to support disadvantaged women for improved maternal health outcomes is critically needed. The results of this intervention will advise policymakers and stakeholders about long-term plans for literacy support of women and the integration of CSWs in the primary healthcare setup.

Scientific research in recent years has documented a violation of the mechanism for the inclusion of young citizens in adulthood and the dominance of consumer attitudes among modern youth. It is quite obvious that one of the indicators of civil society is the desire of people to be its full members, responsible and capable of socially useful activities. The ongoing change in the geopolitical situation in the world has particularly acutely actualized the problem of children and adolescents developing social literacy as a special criterion for the development of society. The need to solve this issue determined the research problem, which lies in the insufficient knowledge of the content of social literacy of children and adolescents in modern pedagogical discourse and the demand for a theoretical justification of this term from the standpoint of the modern sociocultural situation. Accordingly, the purpose of this research is to reveal the concept of “social literacy” in pedagogical theory and practice. The research methods used in the work are the following: analysis of teaching experience and theoretical approaches to the problem under study, synthesis, differentiation, methods of visual presentation of the data obtained. The results of the research. The content of social literacy in pedagogical scientific and scientific-methodological research has been revealed; components of social literacy have been proposed. Key conclusions: social literacy is understood as an individual’s readiness to socialize safely in the environment; possession of an interdependent set of knowledge, skills and abilities, as well as the necessary personal qualities that ensure the formation of this readiness; social literacy includes a set of interrelated components: personal, activity and reflexive, identified on the basis of systematization of axiological, environmental, competence and multi-subjective approaches.

The primary objective of this study was to investigate the impact of social literacy, religious involvement, and technology-equipped systems on the promotion of healthy lifestyle behaviors in community settings in Indonesia. The study utilized a mixed-method research approach and was carried out in three villages within an Indonesian province. Quantitative data was gathered from 235 respondents through face-to-face structured interviews using a simple random sampling procedure, while qualitative data was collected from 28 respondents through a semi-structured interview schedule using a purposive sampling procedure. Additionally, observations were conducted in the three selected communities. The study found that socio-cultural factors, including religious systems, social systems, and technology, significantly influenced healthy lifestyle behaviors in Indonesian communities. Strong associations were observed between these factors and various aspects of healthy living, such as physical activity, fruit and vegetable consumption, not smoking or drinking alcohol, routine health checkups, environmental hygiene, and latrine use. These findings underscored the significance of social support, religious involvement, and technology-equipped systems in promoting and improving healthy behaviors within community settings. Findings would be important guidelines for policymakers and health practitioners for designing and implementing effective health promotion strategies to enhance healthy lifestyle behaviors in community settings.

The need in high-quality education has always been and now is acute for learners and their parents all over the world. Only the most advanced methods, methodology and practices can enable teachers to cover completely the subject field and develop skills of analytical and critical thinking of the digital generation or generation Z, as we call people born after 2000. The situation formed by COVID-19 pandemic changes traditional foundations of life, business, education in the world. In March 2020 the majority of educational institutions were forced to change to distance learning. A lot of conventional forms of teaching underwent serious changes. Not only the process of teaching was altered, but the system of teacher – learner interaction was modified. Pandemic and restrictions imposed by it differ from country to country. Special attention is paid to distance forms using multimedia technologies. Today digital projects of distance learning integrated in the classic system of education are being developed. The author showed that difficulties arising with teaching high-school learners and university students point to the necessity to focus teachers’ attention on digital generation.

The technological developments associated with the modern era have led to dynamic social literacy changes in adolescents. This concept has led to studies on various theoretical perspectives, and its integration into the school curriculum has been encouraged by governments from several countries. However, social literacy is a complicated idea in practice because it comprises considerable theoretical, practical, and ethical challenges. Therefore, this study provides a better understanding of the social literacy complexity by summarizing the main perspectives or existing social literacy practices in the field. It also identifies key aspects in a particular concept of social literacy and explains the process associated with its formulation by several literacy educators. The results showed that educators can use an alternative approach, strategies, or learning models to develop new values, norms, and habits for adolescents in online learning situations, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Speaking to the need for decolonising the oppressed, Métis scholar and activist Howard Adams once questioned why many Métis became confused, puzzled, and lived in constant denial of their unique history and culture. His reflection speaks to the ways in which a colonial form of education strategically and effectively erased, subsumed, and demonised Métis realities and peoples through acts of symbolic violence so effective that even the oppressed were misled. This article explores how Métis community members have demonstrated agency in rectifying this situation via a historic review of community experiences, initiatives, and recommendations in education that reflect recent conceptions of lifelong learning as adaptations to significant life events. Across the Métis homeland, political leaders, activists, educators, and community members have collectively worked to respond to educational needs through a variety of initiatives with the restoration of cultural knowledge and pride as a primary undertaking. Reflecting social literacy aims, the Métis are sustaining a tradition of lifelong learning activities that seek decolonising and self-determining goals that help make sense of their lived experiences through a collective approach. Still, the ability to educate others on Métis topics is contingent on powerholders who privilege the current status quo. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

13. Reflexive Modernization Theory as Social Literacy: Deepening the Understanding of the Social Contexts of Information Ethics

reflexive modernization ,information ethics ,再帰的近代化 ,social literacy ,社会リテラシー ,情報倫理学 - Abstract
情報通信技術が普及した現代社会の諸特徴及び諸課題についての認識は、情報倫理学の教育と研究に不可欠な要素である。加えて、情報倫理学の規範や理論だけでなく、それらが機能する社会的文脈の理解が、研究者には必要である。このような理解が重要である事例として、本稿では不確実性の増大、道徳の機能不全、倫理の普遍性をめぐる問題という三つの論点を検討する。ただし、情報倫理学の視点のみに依拠して、これらの課題を深く論じることは困難である。社会リテラシーと呼ばれる、社会的文脈についての認識と理解もまた、重要である。継続的に発生する新たな情報の影響下で、社会と人々が絶えず自己言及的に変化することを、アンソニー・ギデンズは再帰的近代化と名づけた。再帰的近代化論は、現代社会の諸特徴及び諸課題を、その社会的文脈との関連で記述する。情報倫理学の教育と研究のための社会リテラシーとして、この理論を活用する可能性を示すことが、本稿の狙いである。, An awareness of the characters and issues of a contemporary society with widespread of information and communication technology are inevitable elements of education and research on information ethics. Besides, researchers not only need norms and theories but also an understanding of the social contexts where they function. This study considers three aspects, increased uncertainty, the malfunction of morals, and the problems of universality of ethics as case studies demonstrating the importance of this understanding. However, an in-depth discussion of these issues by only the lens of information ethics is difficult. The awareness and understanding of their social contexts, called social literacy, are also important. Society and people change constantly and self-referentially under the influence of constantly created new information, which Anthony Giddens named reflexive modernization. This study seeks to show the possibility of using reflexive modernization theory, which describes the characters and issues of a contemporary society in relation to its social contexts, as the social literacy for education and research on information ethics., 萩原優騎: 東京海洋大学学術研究院海洋政策文化学部門, Yuki HAGIWARA: Department of Marine Policy and Culture, Tokyo University of Marine Science and Technology (TUMSAT)

- Abstract
This article guides the importance of a queer literacy, using the mainstay of the social literacies of Street (2014). A more inclusive literacy, reaching non-hegemonic subjectivities within the traditional educational process that excludes and ignores them. We use here the ideas of Cosson (2006), Kleiman (2005), Lopes (2002) with the crossings of queer theory in Miskolci (2021) and Louro (2001, 2013, 2022), as well as Foucault (1999, 2013). Through the approaches of the mentioned works, subjects related to sexualities and gender were investigated through intertextuality and interdisciplinarity, in the critical power of literary texts by Trevisan (In te name of desire ,2001 and The Golden age od Brazil, 20219). The objective, then, is to find clues and answers for a queer literacy that is more committed to these issues that are as thorny as they are urgent in the classroom. In times of “school without a political party” and surveillance of the freedom of teaching,, and considering the reflections obtained from this analysis, it is stated that there is still much to be done for a change within the classroom. Finally, it is intended to raise questions and notes about the viability of a queer literacy to reduce prejudices in the learning of liberating practices., O presente artigo pauta a importância de um letramento queer, usando o esteio dos Letramentos sociais de Street (2014). Um letramento mais inclusivo, alcançando as subjetividades não hegemônicas dentro do processo educacional tradicional que as exclui e ignora. Usamos aqui as ideias de Cosson (2006), Kleiman (2005), Lopes (2002) com os atravessamentos da teoria queer em (2019), Miskolci (2021) e Louro (2001, 2013, 2022), bem como Foucault (1999, 2013). Por meio das abordagens das obras mencionadas, foram investigadas por meio das intertextualidades e interdisciplinaridades, na potência crítica dos textos literários de Trevisan (Em nome do desejo, 2001 e A era de ouro do Brasil, 20219) os assuntos relacionados às sexualidades e de gênero. O objetivo, então, é encontrar pistas e respostas para um letramento queer mais comprometido com essas questões tão espinhosas quanto urgentes na sala de aula. Em época de “escola sem partido” e vigilância da liberdade de cátedra docente, e considerando as reflexões obtidas a partir desta análise, afirma-se que ainda há muito a ser feito para uma mudança dentro da sala de aula. Por fim, pretende-se lançar questões e apontamentos sobre a viabilidade de um letramento queer para diminuir os preconceitos nas aprendizagens de práticas libertadoras.

The current paper presents data from a social literacy programme implemented in the prison school in Cyprus for 18 months. The programme was theoretically informed by critical literacy, genre pedagogy, multimodality and non-formal education and it aimed to opt away from skill-based, autonomous and corrective models of literacy education that are widespread in prison education. The current programme approached literacy from the ideological and social perspective. The methodology adopted was a combination of intervention (design and implementation) and ethnographic research (reflective diaries, field notes of the implementation process) along with texts produced by the prisoners. The main findings indicate that the prisoners were very responsive to this type of literacy education since it provided them space to reflect on their own experience, freedom to express themselves and produce texts, away from corrective educational models, and the programme as a whole was appropriate for prisoners of varied educational and social background.

As a result of globalisation, the boundaries that once limited the trade of ideas and culture have largely dissolved. In Australia, the fruits of intercultural exchange have largely been enjoyed, yet this expansion of Australian interaction with diverse Others has posed a perceived threat to some. This parallel expansion and contraction of cultural engagement demonstrates the need for Australia to represent diversity more adequately as a part of our society. A central point of tension in this discussion is religion. This paper reports on a study that explored the question: Why is it so hard to talk about religion in public classrooms? This narrative inquiry attempts to unpack some of the challenges facing Australian educators at present. This study brings out the conflicting priorities and pressures of the secular system against student needs and puts forward an argument for the development of social literacy education that addresses education about religion in Victorian public schools.

Introduction Literacy is a fundamental right and a springboard not only for achieving "education for all", but also for eradicating poverty and increasing participation in society. Political and social literacy is about understanding how politics and social behaviors shape our daily lives. In order to improve the political and social literacy process, it is highly important to recognize effective factors in shaping People's awareness. This study is performed to determine students' points of view concerning such factors. Responsible citizens respect others and participate in political, economic, social and cultural life. The present study aims at examining the level of political and social literacy of adult citizens participating in unofficial adults training centers in Isfahan city. Material & Methods According to the purpose of the research which was to measure the extent of social and political literacy of adults, the research method in this study is descriptive. Research population include 2572 adults (above 35 years old), who attended in instructional programs of the training centers of Isfahan's public agencies in 2011. The estimated number of sample size is 380 who were randomly selected through multistage cluster sampling method. The instrument was a researcher-made questionnaire comprising of 29 items which is designed in two political and social dimensions, with an acceptable level of reliability test (0.84), via Cronbach’s Alpha. The collected data were analyzed through one-sample T-test and ANOVA. Discussion of Results & Conclusions Findings showed that: 1) adults’ social literacy is higher than political literacy, 2) in a significant way, the political literacy of adults is not in good shape, 3) there is a significant difference between averages of political and social literacy in terms of education of adult citizens, 4) there is a significant difference between the averages of political and social literacy in terms of sex: level of political literacy among men is higher than women, whereas social literacy is not significantly different between the sexes, 5) there is a significant difference between the averages of political and social literacy in terms of age: people older than 30 years have more social and political literacy, 6) there is a significant difference between the average of political literacy in terms of place of living but not in social literacy. In general, training centers should be considered as social and political means of development for adult education. Higher levels of political and social literacy will result in better Citizens, whose behaviors lead to lower rates of social and political disorders. In fact, political and social literacy is one of the main components of today’s healthy communities. Political and social literacy are a vehicle to support the achievement of developmental goals and empowerment of the poor in particular. As a component of basic education and a foundation for life-long learning, political and social literacy are the key to enhancement of human capabilities and achieving citizenship rights. It carries wide-ranging benefits not only for individuals but also for families, communities and societies as a whole. Curriculum planners need to use effective approaches in political and social education in order to provide essential and required content for learners according to community needs. It is necessary for them to consider curriculum revisions and develop extra curriculum contents. Considering the effect of political and social literacy on the development of the country, it is recommended to apply these issues in teaching courses which requires deep learning and high levels of understanding.

22. Education in Emotional Intelligence: An Arts Therapies Based Method

- Abstract
By age 11, children are expected to have developed healthy, appropriate, and controlled emotional and social literacy. They should have learned basic social norms, the ability to regulate their emotions, and a strong sense of empathy. These lessons in emotional intelligence prepare children for the roles they will play in adolescence and adulthood. Unfortunately, due to the shift in social interactions from in-person to virtual, children’s emotional intelligence might be at a risk of decline. Fortunately, studies support that the expressive arts therapies can improve interpersonal and intrapersonal skills and behaviors. This thesis aims to develop and implement a method to facilitate emotional intelligence in school-age children. Specifically, it showcases the potential of the expressive arts therapies used in the method. To test the hypothesis that expressive arts therapy can facilitate emotional intelligence in school-age children, a 15-week online expressive arts therapy experiential was implemented to eight children from an outpatient mental health clinic. In the virtual setting, children participated in fifteen activities based on four expressive arts therapy modalities. Each child’s ability to perceive, understand, and regulate emotions in the self and in the other was assessed using the Mayer-Salovey-Caruso Emotional Intelligence Test (MSCEIT) before and after the 15-week long experiential. The results showed what was hypothesized: emotional intelligence in school-age children. These results suggest new ways to improve the facilitation of emotional intelligence in children. On this basis, the use of the expressive arts therapies should be considered when furthering and promoting emotional intelligence.

It is widely acknowledged that different communities, such as language groups and socio-economic status (SES) families, practice literacy in different ways. Certain language communities of low SES observe literacy interactions differently from the traditional 'schooled literacy', which may influence learners' reading literacy. However, the link between language communities, SES and reading literacy has not been extensively researched, especially in the South African context where there are 11 official languages and wide socio-economic disparities. This article examines students' social literacy in relation to their reading literacy levels, and reveals that the literacy gap between indigenous South African language (ISAL) speakers, a number of whom are from low SES families, and speakers of English and Afrikaans is further widened at the tertiary level due to the mismatch between the social literacy practices of the different language groups and the education system that operates in the country. Recommendations are made on how educators could employ strategies such as social relevance and culturally sensitive teaching to bridge the academic literacy gap among the language groups.

This study describes the use of literacy—including the written word—in the maintenance and practice of Lukumí, a Diasporic African spiritual tradition. While Lukumí is decidedly orally transmitted, the written word is still a critical part of its contemporary practice. Relying on data collected during participant observation of ceremonies and rituals, semistructured interviews and focus groups, the study reveals the ways in which orality, material culture, and the written word exist within a communicative continuum critical to Lukumí devotion and practice.

The present article discusses a literacy proposal developed in PIBID, Portuguese language degree, from an ethnographic perspective. The description and reflection of the scholarship holders' experiences stand out in a double process: the first concerns the formation of the reader-scholarship holder (re) constructed through the autobiographical narrative and the second refers to the construction of the teaching practice in the process of development of the literacy proposal at school. Educational Ethnography (ERICKSON, 1986; 1984), articulated to social approaches to working with literacies - New Literacy Studies (STREET, 2014), constitutes the theoretical and methodological support of this study; Pedagogy of Multiliteracies (LNG, 1996; ROJO, 2012) and Pedagogy of Transmedia (PEREIRA & GOMES, 2019). The results presented reveal the need to face the problems of (non) literacies without hiding the local reality of social inequality in many public schools in the country and confirm the theoretical and methodological approach of Educational Ethnography as a way to work with reading . They also reveal that the use of technologies, including digital, can be a solution to offer students access to literary works. O presente artigo discute uma proposta de letramento desenvolvida no PIBID, área de Letras/Português, a partir de um olhar etnográfico. Destacam-se a descrição e a reflexão das experiências dos bolsistas em um duplo processo: o primeiro diz respeito à formação do leitor-bolsista (re) construída por meio da narrativa autobiográfica e o segundo refere-se à construção da prática docente no processo de desenvolvimento da proposta de letramento na escola. Constituem-se como suporte teórico-metodológico deste estudo a Etnografia Educacional (ERICKSON, 1986; 1984) articulada a abordagens sociais para o trabalho com os letramentos – Novos Estudos do Letramento (STREET, 2014); Pedagogia dos Multiletramentos (GNL, 1996; ROJO, 2012) e Pedagogia Transmídia (PEREIRA & GOMES, 2019). Os resultados apresentados nos revelam a necessidade de enfrentamento dos problemas dos (não) letramentos sem ocultar a realidade local de desigualdade social de muitas das escolas públicas do país e confirmam a abordagem teórico-metodológica da Etnografia Educacional como um caminho para o trabalho com a leitura. Revelam ainda que o uso das tecnologias, incluindo a digital, pode ser uma solução para oferecer aos alunos acesso às obras literárias.

Capitulo 2 - MIL Cities and MIL Citizens: Informed, Engaged, Empowered by Media and Information Literacy (MIL). This study applies the new social change theory called Media and Information Literacy Expansion (MILx ), as developed by Grizzle and Hamada (2019), to the UNESCO Media and Information Literacy (MIL) Cities framework (UNESCO, 2019). MILx considers MIL competencies, acquisition, and application by individuals, groups, and institutions simultaneously. MILx also models the potential multiplier outcomes of this approach when MIL is integrated with other social competences. MILX proposes that we cannot reach optimal social value proposition, value enhancement, and value expansion if MIL interventions only focus on individuals. The study also explores the likely positive changes in outcomes when MILX is united with emotional competencies as another variable in the model. Specifically, this paper focuses on MILX incorporating “emotional literacy” (Singh & Duraiappah, 2020) and the interaction that occurs in the selected target group of children and youth, their peers, their families, and the institutions with which they engage. A practical design of MILX demonstrates how MIL can correspond with efforts to counter disinformation and misinformation with deeper changes in mindset (Cinzia et al., 2015). It theorizes how, with MILX, emotional communication through art creates a synergistic effect on individuals, groups, and institutions. Art is widely used for psychological therapy because it can identify relationships between physical and psychological states. We used an art-based research methodology to theorize communication from the individual to society based on empirical analysis. Data from youth and children’s responses to the 2011 tsunami catastrophe area in Ishinomaki, Japan, were analyzed in this context. Further research is required to strengthen the findings to actualize the strong emotional dimensions that exist in people’s engagement in the information ecology toward and beyond the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Goals

Literacy is a fundamental right and a springboard not only for achieving "education for all", but also for eradicating poverty and increasing participation in society. Political and social literacy is about understanding how politics and social behaviors shape our daily lives. In order to improve the political and social literacy process, it is highly important to recognize effective factors in shaping People's awareness. This study is performed to determine students' points of view concerning such factors. Responsible citizens respect others and participate in political, economic, social and cultural life. The present study aims at examining the level of political and social literacy of adult citizens participating in unofficial adults training centers in Isfahan city. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Professor Magda Soares discusses the concepts of reading acquisition and social literacy, stating that the learning of the writing system must occur simultaneously with the learning of the social uses of that system, what the researcher calls “alfaletrar”. In the same sense, Soares addresses the issue of theories and practices aimed at reading acquisition, she explains that there should not be a single method to be followed and criticizes the National Literacy Plan (PNA), which specifically recommends the phonic method. Magda Soares addresses the theory of Psychogenesis of written language, developed by Ferreiro and Teberosky (1986), presenting evidence of all stages that make up this theory through examples produced by students in the process of reading acquisition. The teacher evidences in her speech the attempt to articulate Linguistics and Education. A professora Magda Soares discute as concepções de alfabetização e letramento, afirmando que a aprendizagem do sistema de escrita deve ocorrer contemporaneamente à aprendizagem dos usos sociais desse sistema, o que a pesquisadora chama de “alfaletrar”. Nesse mesmo sentido, Soares aborda a questão das teorias e práticas voltadas à alfabetização, explica que não deve haver um único método a ser seguido e critica o Plano Nacional de Alfabetização (PNA), que recomenda, especificamente, o método fônico. Magda Soares aborda a teoria da Psicogênese da língua escrita, desenvolvida por Ferreiro e Teberosky (1986), apresentando evidências de todos os estágios que compõem essa teoria através de exemplos produzidos por alunos em processo de alfabetização. A professora evidencia em sua fala a tentativa de articulação entre a Linguística e a Educação.

All human activities are motivated by reasons linked to the needs of everyday life, this is, no individual performs actions that do not make sense for his/her existence, therefore, any teaching activity is inconsistent, among them, the teaching of writing, with no connection with the daily lives of students. An effective way to unite school practices with the student’s real world is to develop pedagogical actions capable of modifying the environment in which he/she resides. In this sense, it is advisable to think about initiatives linked to the social exercise of citizenship, similar to what was done in the present work, in which the main objective was to analyze the teaching-learning process of written production of the letter of denunciation, the object of the answer of 9th grade students from a school in the municipal system of João Pessoa-PB to a social problem that affects them. Our theoretical framework was, among others, the following authors: Bakhtin (1997) and Marcuschi (2008), in relation to discursive genres; Geraldi (2011) and Travaglia (2009), about language concepts; Antunes (2003) and Koch (2017b), about writing and its teaching; Kleiman (1995) and Street (2014), regarding social literacy; Motta (2013) and Nascimento (2007), concerning the letter genre; Lauria (2011) and Leite, Silva and Fonseca (2017), about the letter of denunciation; and Dolz et al. (2011), regarding Didactic Sequences. The research has an applied and interventional natures, therefore, it fits the category of action research. The corpus of the analysis is composed of 10 productions, initially written and later rewritten by students of the 9th grade of elementary school at a school located in the city of João Pessoa. Following the guidelines expressed in the Didactic Sequences, we first presented the situation, from which the students identified and chose a social disorder in the community to be reported to the competent body. After certain activities focused on discursive aspects of the textual genre, the first production was written, from which we elaborated the interventional work focused on the thematic content, the compositional structure and the linguistic style of the letter of denunciation. After carrying out the analytical process, comparing the initial and final productions, we found advances in students’ writing, from which we concluded that the teaching of writing, through the Didactic Sequences by Dolz et al. (2011), associated with social actions of citizenship, is capable of generating satisfactory results. Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES Todas as atividades humanas são motivadas por razões atreladas às necessidades da vida cotidiana, ou seja, nenhum indivíduo realiza ações que não façam sentido à sua existência, por isso, é incoerente qualquer atividade docente, entre elas, o ensino de escrita, sem vínculo com o dia a dia dos discentes. Um meio eficaz de unir as práticas escolares ao mundo real do aluno é desenvolver ações pedagógicas capazes de modificar o ambiente em que este reside. Nesse sentido, convém que se pensem em iniciativas atreladas ao exercício social de cidadania, a exemplo do que foi realizado no presente trabalho, no qual o principal objetivo foi analisar o processo de ensino-aprendizagem de produção escrita do gênero carta de denúncia, objeto da resposta dos alunos do 9° ano do Ensino Fundamental de uma escola da rede municipal de João Pessoa-PB a um problema social que os atinge. Nosso referencial teórico foram, entre outros, os seguintes autores: Bakhtin (1997) e Marcuschi (2008), em relação aos gêneros discursivos; Geraldi (2011) e Travaglia (2009), sobre as concepções de linguagem; Antunes (2003) e Koch (2017b), acerca da escrita e seu ensino; Kleiman (1995) e Street (2014), a respeito do letramento social; Motta (2013) e Nascimento (2007), concernente ao gênero carta; Lauria (2011) e Leite, Silva e Fonseca (2017), sobre a carta de denúncia; e Dolz et al. (2011), a respeito das Sequências Didáticas. A pesquisa é de natureza aplicada, de cunho interventivo, portanto, adequa-se à categoria de pesquisa-ação. O corpus da análise é composto por 10 produções, inicialmente escritas e posteriormente reescritas por alunos do 9° ano do Ensino Fundamental de uma escola localizada na cidade de João Pessoa. Seguindo as orientações expressas nas Sequências Didáticas, realizamos primeiramente a apresentação da situação, a partir da qual os discentes identificaram e escolheram um transtorno social da comunidade a ser denunciado a órgão competente. Após certas atividades voltadas para aspectos discursivos do gênero, foi escrita a primeira produção, a partir da qual elaboramos o trabalho interventivo voltado para o conteúdo temático, a estrutura composicional e o estilo linguístico do gênero carta de denúncia. Após realizarmos o processo analítico, comparando as produções inicial e final, constatamos avanços na escrita dos alunos, a partir dos quais concluímos que o ensino de escrita, por meio das Sequências Didáticas de Dolz et al. (2011), associadas a ações sociais de cidadania, é capaz de gerar resultados satisfatórios.

This article outlines spiritual care as the foundation for a child’s religious education. The elements of spiritual care are described by identifying how God concepts form in the young, by naming children’s inherent spiritual needs, by offering perspectives from human spirituality research over the last 60 years, particularly as it applies to children, by analyzing the way meaning forms through experience as it finds its way into worldviews each of us holds by early adolescence, and finally, by depicting four types of literacy (cognitive, emotional, imaginative and social) at the basis of spiritual care and as the groundwork for a child’s future development within various religious traditions. The purpose of spiritual care is to focus on the humanity of children and to situate their education within a framework built on their spiritual needs. This article is deeply embedded in assumptions associated with the Christian tradition. However, a fundamental assumption of spirituality research is that every person is spiritual. As a result, the intention to educate the human spirit as a first step to initiating children into a faith tradition is well founded, it also raises the possibility of spiritual care as undergirding secular education, but that question is beyond this article’s purview. The intention is to spark a conversation among religious traditions as one way to meet the deepest spiritual needs of children, which is an urgent dialogue to engage in at present. If French philosopher Jean Baudrillard was correct, the age we are living in is well described as a revolution of confusion. A response to confusion requires the spiritual needs of children and creating a broad theoretical and practical approach to how they think and act, as they move into a tradition that they take on board, along with their developed capacity to reflect on that tradition from personal and socially informed perspectives.

All Saints Catholic Girls College is situated in Liverpool, Sydney. Our students come from multicultural but somewhat disadvantaged backgrounds and, as young women, they are not often encouraged to demand their own freedoms, education or safety. In this context, and with added pressures from the media in the form of increasingly sexualised expectations, we have developed two programs which enhance students' critical thinking and enable them to deconstruct the way they have been positioned in today's society. The 'iWoman' project has successfully embedded an 'affirmative action' approach across the curriculum, requiring students to analyse, question and celebrate the role of women in each subject area. The project has also inspired extra-curricular and enrichment activities which have widened our students' career expectations. The CORE (Come on, Respect Everybody) program has been devised and resourced by the Pastoral Care team at the school. In order to tackle issues of self-worth, gender image and potential sexual assault, the program uses discussion and multimedia to challenge stereotypes and enable girls to keep themselves and their peers emotionally and physically safe. We will look at why and how these projects have come about and the resulting changes in student learning and welfare. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

For today´s children it is common to live in two places at once - in the off-line environment of the classroom and in the online world of social networks. The movement in both places requires an individual to abound with certain abilities and skills. At the same time, the individuals in both places - online and offline, encounter with some dangers - in the social media case it can be considered addictive behaviour. The question is whether the abilities and skills that the individual uses in the real world and which affect his position in the classroom may be somehow related to the emergence and development of addictive behaviour on social networks. The aim of the theoretical part is to inform readers about the problematic of addictive behaviour on social networks, to explain the importance of social contact and outline the connection between online and offline environments. The practical part contains the research, which is aimed to find out, if there are any correlations between addictive behaviour on social networks, social literacy and social status of pupils.

CITIZENSHIP education , *SOCIALIZATION , *SCHOOL children - Abstract
This article explores citizenship education's need to focus on both 'political' and 'social' literacy within a communitarian framework. The Crick Report (1998; see also Lahey, Crick and Porter, 1974), while recognizing that the social dimension of citizenship education was a precondition for both the civic and political dimensions, concentrated largely on 'political' literacy. This article examines the social dimension of citizenship education. Concern with the social dimension of the curriculum in schools is not a recent interest, but changes within society have accelerated the social demands made upon schools. At the very least, society expects schools to correct the behaviour of children and to teach them values which usually means insisting on 'good' behaviour. The social development of pupils has thus assumed a much greater place in the aspirations of schools. Programmes of personal and social education, together with citizenship education, invariably emphasize a range of social skills and these skills are introduced early and built upon throughout the years of schooling. An individual's sense and ability to make socially productive decisions do not develop by themselves; rather, they require knowledge, values and skills. Above all opportunities are required for children to experience social relations in such a way that they are able to operate critically within value-laden discourses and thereby to become informed and ethically empowered, active citizens.

36. Communicating Health Risks in the Pacific: Scientific Construct and Cultural Reality.

Finau, Sitaleki A.
- Abstract
Health workers often communicate to people from a position of power rather than focusing on the needs of the receivers. This is usually clouded with jargon and the so-called principles of scientific accuracy. Often the use of science is to justify the health worker's position rather than to precipitate actions to promote health and achieve people's control over their lives.Communication involves a tripartite reciprocal interaction between the sender, receiver and the medium. This involves both science and art specific to the message, language, values and participants. If the ultimate purpose of communication is healthful action and community control, then scientificness of the explanations must be secondary. Therefore the art of getting the message across must be the priority rather than it being scientifically sound. This conflict is discussed in relation to experiences in the Pacific Islands. The communication of health risks in the Pacific involves the multi-tiered translation of scientific concepts and language into those of the target populations.The scientific concepts are usually occidental and need to be translated into vernacular worldviews and languages. Experiences in and examples from the Pacific have challenged the primacy of scientific explanations over the need to minimise health risks and increase of community control. For health promotion to succeed in multicultural and multilingual Pacific, New Zealand and Australia, the art and science of communicating health risks must be titrated against scientific explanations to appropriately and primarily promote health.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES This report aims at the presentation of a pedagogical book for Portuguese teachers which aims to promote social literacy using texts that encourage reflection and debate about discourses of citizenship and the multiple violences present in the school space, as well as to assist the development of students' communicative competence through the association between language, text and social context. The theoretical conceptions discussed here are based on the concept of discourse as the moment of social practices, Fairclough (2008); in literacy studies that understand it as social practices involving reading and writing and its consequences for society, Street (2003,2014); Kleiman (2008); Rojo (2009), as well as in reading and writing studies as discursive practices inseparable from the contexts in which they are developed, Kleiman (2008). The elaboration of the product had as research field an educational unit that is part of the public schools of Sergipe/Brazil, located in a peripheral district of the capital, and as target group, the 6th year of elementary school. This research fits the universe of educational action research, Tripp (2005), and collaborative research, the results obtained led to self-reflection of the teacher and students about education, about the social practices of that community and led to the planning of actions, from the practices of reading and writing, which will influence the daily life in and out of school. Este relatório visa à apresentação de um caderno pedagógico para professores de língua portuguesa, o qual objetiva a promoção do letramento social utilizando-se de textos que propiciem a reflexão e o debate acerca dos discursos de cidadania e de violência presentes no espaço escolar, bem como auxiliar o desenvolvimento da competência comunicativa dos estudantes por meio da associação entre língua, texto e contexto social. As concepções teóricas aqui abordadas apoiam-se no conceito de discurso como o momento das práticas sociais, Fairclough (2008); nos estudos sobre letramento que o entendem como práticas sociais que envolvem leitura e escrita e a suas consequências para a sociedade, Street (2003,2014); Kleiman (2008); Rojo (2009), como também nos estudos de leitura e escrita como práticas discursivas inseparáveis dos contextos em que se desenvolvem, Kleiman (2008). A elaboração do produto teve como campo de pesquisa uma unidade educacional integrante da rede pública de Sergipe, situada em um bairro periférico da capital, e como turma-alvo, o 6º ano do ensino fundamental. Esta pesquisa enquadra-se no universo da pesquisa-ação educacional, Tripp (2005), e da pesquisa-colaborativa, os resultados obtidos conduziram à autorreflexão do professor e dos estudantes sobre a educação, sobre as práticas sociais daquela comunidade e acarretaram no planejamento de ações, a partir das práticas de leitura e escrita, que influenciarão o cotidiano dentro e fora da escola.

Inclusion of mobile phone devices as part of pedagogical actions in classroom, promoting digital inclusion in teaching/learning process, is the object of analysis of this study. This has been applied in six different classes of first cycle of Educação de Jovens e Adultos – EJA (Youth and Adult Education) of public school from Boa Vista – PB. Grounded on the pedagogical theory from Paulo Freire, this is a qualitative research, also based on applied linguistics beyond digital culture and teaching. The theory of this study is based on the liberating bases of popular education and it has been sought contributions in studies on both digital technologies and information, beyond multiliteracy, creating a dialogue between researchers from several fields of knowledge, such Freire (2011) Kleiman (2005), André (2008), Alves (1991), Gonsalves (2001), Gil (2002), Kenski (2012) Rojo (2012), aiming to compose a favorable scenario to the construction of writing and the inclusion of digital technologies in the EJA. The methodologies used the following procedures: Observation of participant members; Planning of pedagogical actions; Interventions in reading; Construction of both alphabetical writing and digital literacy in EJA classes. The data analysis was developed through class diaries, filming and photographs, beyond interviews and questionnaires, in which the teachers reflected on the teaching practice. Interactive processes were observed in the field of multiliteracies involved in using mobile device. In the interpretations of the first data were considered the implication factors of the practices of literacy beyond skills in using of mobile phone, converging towards the effective construction of writing and digital inclusion, in which it was found respect for the diversity present in EJA.The analysis allowed the perception of teaching action, directed to the writing construction, it is only limited to practices aimed at appropriation of alphabetic writing system and normativity, in which it often ends by dissociating itself from the social uses of writing. It has been common to move away from literacy and pedagogical practices of digital inclusion, verifying necessity for studies that, going beyond the scientific explanations, require practical actions, in a given context and thus contributes to both writing construction and social inclusion for young people and adults, which historically suffer exclusion in the educational process. From these conclusion emerges up a didactic sequence, including activities using mobile device, which was both built and executed in these classes, making possible the digital inclusion in experience in the first cycle of the EJA. Este estudo contempla a importância sobre o uso adequado do aparelho tecnológico celular, fazendo parte das ações pedagógicas em sala de aula para a promoção da inclusão digital como parte constituinte do processo de ensino/aprendizagem. O trabalho foi desenvolvido em seis turmas do primeiro ciclo da EJA das Escolas Municipais de Boa Vista- PB. Trata-se de uma pesquisa qualitativa, respaldada pela pedagogia freireana, nos referenciais da linguística aplicada e na cultura digital e ensino. A fundamentação teórica que se deu nas bases libertadoras da educação popular, buscou contribuições nos estudos sobre as tecnologias digitais e da informação e os multiletramentos, estabelecendo um diálogo entre estudiosos de várias áreas de conhecimento, a exemplo de: Freire (2011) Kleiman (2005), André (2008), Alves (1991), Gonsalves (2001), Gil (2002), Kenski (2012) e Rojo (2012), para compor um panorama favorável à construção da escrita e a inclusão das tecnologias digitais na EJA. Os procedimentos metodológicos utilizados envolveram a observação dos participantes, o planejamento das ações pedagógicas, intervenções no campo da leitura, construção da escrita alfabética e no letramento digital nas turmas da EJA. A análise dos registros se deram através dos diários de classe, de filmagens e fotografias, além de entrevistas e questionários, envolvendo as professoras e propiciando reflexões da prática docente. O foco das observações foram os processos interativos, no campo dos multiletramentos envolvidos no uso do aparelho celular. Consideramos nas interpretações dos dados iniciais, os implicadores das práticas de letramento e as habilidades no uso do aparelho tecnológico celular, que convergem para a construção efetiva da escrita e para a inclusão digital. Verificando-se o respeito pela diversidade presente na EJA. A análise permitiu a percepção de que a ação docente, quando está direcionada à construção da escrita, limita-se a práticas voltadas à apropriação do Sistema de Escrita Alfabética e à normatividade; desvinculando-se, muitas vezes, dos usos sociais da escrita. É comum um afastamento entre alfabetização e práticas pedagógicas de inclusão digital, comprovando a necessidade de estudos que, indo além das explicações científicas, requerem ações práticas, viáveis em determinado contexto e, portanto, contribuinte para a construção da escrita e inclusão social com jovens e adultos, que sofrem historicamente a exclusão no processo educacional. A partir de tais conclusões surgiu uma sequência didática, envolvendo atividades práticas com o aparelho celular, que fora construída e executada nessas turmas, enquanto produto final, que possibilitou a inclusão digital em uma experiência no primeiro ciclo da EJA.

The article, based on the interdisciplinary approach, consider a new paradigm of language development and reading instruction of the children of preschool and primary school. In this regard, we can speak about the pedagogical problem of spelling achievement and verbal literacy, which can be understood as literacy in the narrow sense. From this type of literacy the literacy in a broad sense, id est. social competence stems. The latter is interpreted as a person's ability to access information and to analyze it consciously, to understand and use various types of information that allows an individual to be involved in economic, cultural, and political practices of the society. This, in turn, expands the life opportunities of the person. It is concluded that a person's success in life depends on literacy, which is deteriorating, and one of the reasons for this trend is a phonematic opposition linguodidactics paradigm of contemporary school. Under such conditions the urgent need arises to build a holistic methodological system of teaching children to read based on effective methods and technologies (a global method, N. A. Zaitsev's method for early and intensive literacy, probabilistic technology education of A. M. Lobok, pedagogical system of P. V. Tulienev, the system-information approach to the organization of educational environment), which are built on psycho-physiological characteristics of child's development in the early stages of its evolution, who perceives the world holistically, at the level of right hemispheric mechanisms of cognition and understanding the reality., У статті на основі міждисциплінарного підходу висвітлена нова парадигма розвитку мовлення та навчання читання дітей дошкільної та початкової ланок. Зроблено висновки, що успіх людини у житті залежить від грамотності, що погіршується, і однією з причин цієї тенденції є фонематична лінгводидактична парадигма сучасної школи. За таких умов виявляється необхідність побудувати цілісну методичну систему навчання дітей грамоті на основі ефективних методів та технологій: глобальний метод, методика раннього навчання грамоті, технологія імовірнісної освіти, педагогічна система раннього розвитку, системно-інформаційний підхід до організації навчально-виховного середовища. Ці методи базуються на психофізіологічних особливостях розвитку дитини, яка на ранніх етапах своєї еволюції сприймає світ цілісно, на рівні правопівкульових механізмів пізнання та освоєння дійсності.

The aim of this dissertation project is to describe the ways people experience parenting a deaf child who uses a cochlear implant. Within a framework of social science studies of disability this is done by combining approaches using ethnographic and netnographic methods of participant observation with an interview study. Interpretations are based on the first-person perspective of 19 parents against the background of their related networks of social encounters of everyday life. The netnographic study is presented in composite conversations building on exchanges in 10 social media groups, which investigates the parents’ meaning-making in interaction with other parents with similar living conditions. Ideas about language, technology, deafness, disability, and activism are explored. Lived parenting refers to the analysis of accounts of orientation and what 'gets done' in respect to these ideas in situations where people utilize the senses differently. In the results, dilemmas surrounding language, communication and cochlear implantation are identified and explored. The dilemmas extend from if and when to implant, to decisions about communication modes, intervention approaches, and schools. An important finding concerns the parents’ orientations within the dilemmas, where most parents come up against antagonistic conflicts. There are also examples found of a development process in parenting based on lived, in-depth experiences of disability and uncertainty which enables parents to transcend the conflictive atmosphere. This process is analyzed in terms of a social literacy of dis/ability.

Nesta perspectiva, achamos necessário realizar um estudo sobre os gêneros música e conto, tendo em vista conhecer mais profundamente a estrutura desses textos, e também refletir sobre as regularidades linguísticas, textuais e discursivas encontradas nesses gêneros. Um fator relevante foi compreender a importância do trabalho com os gêneros textuais, no sentido de preparar os discentes para atuarem nas diversas circunstâncias que a sociedade demanda, ou seja, formar sujeitos pensantes e reflexivos no uso da língua oral e escrita. Nessa perspectiva, a escolha pela prática da retextualização se deu justamente por se tratar de algo que vai além da escrita, envolvendo mudanças relevantes na produção textual, com implicações no campo linguístico, discursivo e textual, com significação na reescrita e paráfrase, objetivando transformar o texto que envolve a mudança no discurso, no contexto de produção, no suporte de circulação e, sobretudo, na modificação do gênero textual. Para fundamentar o trabalho, a pesquisa está embasada nas teorias de Kleiman (1995), Marcuschi (2001), Tfouni (2004), Soares (2009), Manguel (1997), Scrbner e Cole (1981) e outros, com o objetivo de aprofundar os postulados que dizem respeito aos gêneros textuais, retextualização e prática de letramento. O método utilizado é o qualitativo, pois busca entender a relevância e a significação dos problemas abordados, ao oferecer uma aproximação essencial entre sujeito e objeto. A proposta de intervenção será apresentada aos professores do Centro de Educação de Jovens e Adultos Professora Eudes Veras (CEJA), como um material didático suplementar ao já existente no programa, com o escopo de oferecer uma nova prática didática, significativa para o ensino da escrita, dada às dificuldades que o aluno do CEJA apresenta na produção textual, principalmente por se tratar de um Curso que funciona na modalidade semipresencial e, portanto, com contatos limitados com o professor. Vale salientar que este trabalho não termina aqui, e sua intenção é dar continuidade ao projeto iniciado, enfatizando a importância de se trabalhar os gêneros textuais, nos diferentes contextos do cotidiano do aluno do CEJA. This thesis of the Professional Master in Letters aims to build an additional module, with retextualization activities with the genres music and short story, from the viewpoint of social literacy, in order to develop in students the use of reading and writing skills in social practices. In this perspective, it was necessary to conduct a study of the genres music and short story, in order to know more deeply about the structure of these texts, and also to reflect on the linguistic, textual and discursive regularities found in these genres. An important factor was to understand the importance of working with textual genres in order to prepare students to work in the various circumstances that society demands, ie, form thinking and reflective subjects in the use of oral and written language. In this perspective, the practice of retextualization was chosen because it is something that goes beyond writing, involving significant changes in textual production, with implications for the linguistic, discursive and textual field, with significance in rewriting and paraphrasing, aiming to transform the text that involves changing in the discourse, in the context of production, circulation and support, especially in the genre modification. To support the work, the research is grounded in theories of Kleiman (1995), Marcuschi (2001), Tfouni (2004), Soares (2009), Manguel (1997), Scrbner and Cole (1981) and others, with the objective of further understanding the postulates that relate to textual genres, retextualization and practice of literacy. The method used is the qualitative one, because it seeks to understand the relevance and significance of the issues addressed by offering an essential approach between subject and object. The proposal of intervention will be presented to the teachers of the Centro de Educação de Jovens e Adultos Professora Eudes Veras (CEJA) as a supplementary educational material to the ones existing in the program, with the aim of offering a new teaching practice, significant to the teaching of writing, given the difficulties that the student of the CEJA presents in textual production, mainly because it is a course that works in a semipresential mode and therefore with limited contacts with the teacher. It is worth noting that this work does not end here, and its intention is to continue the project started, emphasizing the importance of working the genres in different contexts of the CEJA student's daily life.
