A Different Approach To Family Involvement, Leslie Patterson, Shelia Baldwin, Rubén Gonzales, Irma Guadarrama, Liz Keith
Networks: An Online Journal for Teacher Research
The Houston Chronicle recently quoted a school counselor who blamed low student achievement on parents, whom he called "a bunch of seventh-grade dropouts who can't add 2 plus 2" (Houston Chronicle, 1998, p. 21A). As educators, we see too many of our colleagues play that blame game as we try to respond to increasing public pressure to make schools "work." The logic goes something like this: "We are doing everything we know how, and these children still are not succeeding. If only their parents would (fill in the blank), everything would be just fine."
The Dialogic Self: Language And Identity In Annie Ernaux , Warren Johnson
The Dialogic Self: Language And Identity In Annie Ernaux , Warren Johnson
Studies in 20th & 21st Century Literature
The nine largely autobiographical texts that Annie Ernaux (1940- ) has published to date, which range stylistically from early strident outpourings to the willed transparency of an "écriture plate," all reveal the narrator as a patchwork subjectivity comprised of the discourses surrounding the child, adolescent, and adult against which she reacts, frequently without comprehending her own motivations. I try to unravel the strands that make up Ernaux's language and explore how the self that emerges is an aggregate of the discursive spaces she has inhabited. I trace as well how her gender identity impacts her capacity and willingness to struggle …

For Adults Only: Queer Theory Meets The Self And Identity In Adult Education, A. Brooks, K. Edwards
For Adults Only: Queer Theory Meets The Self And Identity In Adult Education, A. Brooks, K. Edwards
Adult Education Research Conference
This article brings the perspective of "Queer theory" to the field of Adult Education as a way of examining critically the notions of self, identity, and sexuality as they have been taken for granted within the field. Adult Education, like most fields of practice and research, assumes the Western ideals of the monadic self, clear and undisputed identities, and heterosexuality. However, the intersection of a strong postmodern voice in both academia and the popular culture, the increasing exploration of other-than-hetero-sexualities in the media, and the foregrounding of sexuality in the work of adult education researchers (Brooks & Edwards,1997; Edwards, 1997; …
