    Refiguring Prose Style (2023)
    University Press of Colorado | Utah State University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: For about two decades, say Johnson and Pace, the discussion of how to address prose style in teaching college writing has been stuck, with style standing in as a proxy for other stakes in the theory wars. The traditional argument is evidently still quite persuasive to some-that teaching style is mostly a matter of teaching generic conventions through repetition and practice. Such a position usually presumes the traditional view of composition as essentially a service course, one without content of its own. On the other side, the shortcomings of this argument have been much discussed-that it neglects invention, revision, context, meaning, even truth; that it is not congruent with research; that it ignores 100 years of scholarship establishing composition's intellectual territory beyond "service." The discussion is stuck there, and all sides have been giving it a rest in recent scholarship. Yet style remains of vital practical interest to the field, because everyone has to teach it one way or another. A consequence of the impasse is that a theory of style itself has not been well articulated. Johnson and Pace suggest that moving the field toward a better consensus will require establishing style as a clearer subject of inquiry. Accordingly, this collection takes up a comprehensive study of the subject. Part I explores the recent history of composition studies, the ways it has figured and all but effaced the whole question of prose style. Part II takes to heart Elbow's suggestion that composition and literature, particularly as conceptualized in the context of creative writing courses, have something to learn from each other. Part III sketches practical classroom procedures for heightening students' abilities to engage style, and part IV explores new theoretical frameworks for defining this vital and much neglected territory. The hope of the essays here-focusing as they do on historical, aesthetic, practical, and theoretical issues-is to awaken composition studies to the possibilities of style, and, in turn, to rejuvenate a great many classrooms.

    L’entreprise rend-elle compétent·e ? (2023)
    Céreq
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-12-06
    Description: Les compétences sont aujourd’hui la clé d’enjeux aussi essentiels que la compétitivité économique et la sécurisation des parcours professionnels. La loi pour la liberté de choisir son avenir professionnel propose même d’en faire la « protection sociale active du XXIe siècle ». Quelle place les entreprises occupent-elles dans ce processus ? Quels sont les outils dont elles disposent ? En quoi sont-elles parties prenantes de la politique publique en matière de développement et de reconnaissance des compétences des salariés ? Trois parties structurent les analyses : les deux premières interrogent l’implication de l’entreprise dans la formation initiale, puis dans la formation continue et le travail. La troisième met la focale sur deux secteurs confrontés aux transitions numérique et énergétique, la logistique et la production électrique. Le Céreq pose ici la question de la responsabilité sociale des entreprises en matière de compétences, en partie renouvelée par le contexte de la crise sanitaire et de la crise économique d’ampleur qui lui est liée. L’ouvrage regroupe 10 interventions d’expert·es du Céreq, présentées lors de sa 6e Biennale organisée sous forme de webinaire en septembre 2020. Elles mobilisent les enquêtes conduites par l’établissement, notamment le Dispositif d’enquêtes sur les formations et itinéraires des salariés (Defis) et l’enquête Génération.

    Discord And Direction (2023)
    University Press of Colorado | Utah State University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: The argument of this collection is that the cultural and intellectual legacies of postmodernism impinge, significantly and daily, on the practice of the Writing Program Administrator. WPAs work in spaces where they must assume responsibility for a multifaceted program, a diverse curriculum, instructors with varying pedagogies and technological expertise-and where they must position their program in relation to a university with its own conflicted mission, and a state with its unpredictable views of accountability and assessment. The collection further argues that postmodernism offers a useful lens through which to understand the work of WPAs and to examine the discordant cultural and institutional issues that shape their work. Each chapter tackles a problem local to its author's writing program or experience as a WPA, and each responds to existing discord in creative ways that move toward rebuilding and redirection. It is a given that accepting the role of WPA will land you squarely in the bind between modernism and postmodernism: while composition studies as a field arguably still reflects a modernist ethos, the WPA must grapple daily with postmodern habits of thought and ways of being. The effort to live in this role may or may not mean that a WPA will adopt a postmodern stance; it does mean, however, that being a WPA requires dealing with the postmodern.

    Les femmes dans l’enseignement supérieur : une (r)évolution inachevée (2023)
    Céreq
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-12-06
    Description: Le groupe de travail sur l’enseignement supérieur (GTES) est un réseau d’échanges et de production sur les parcours de formation et d’insertion des inscrits dans l’enseignement supérieur. Il réunit des chargé·es d’études du Céreq, des chercheur·es et enseignant·es-chercheur·es, des représentant·es de l’Observatoire national de la vie étudiante (OVE), des observatoires universitaires et régionaux et des membres de services du MESRI (DGESIP et SIES). Le thème Enseignement supérieur et insertion, nouvelles répartitions des publics a guidé les réflexions et travaux du groupe, dont les résultats sont restitués dans trois ouvrages. Cet ouvrage rassemble des travaux relatifs à la place des femmes dans l’enseignement supérieur. Alors qu’elles sont désormais plus diplômées que les hommes, des ségrégations perdurent dans certaines formations et diplômes où la mixité semble à la peine. À partir de données d’enquêtes de terrain ou administratives, les contributions s’attardent sur les parcours des bachelières scientifiques, d’étudiantes en STAPS, de doctorantes et de femmes en reprises d’études. Les résultats et analyses révèlent que la conciliation des temps sociaux (privés et professionnels), l’accès aux métiers et carrières afférents aux diplômes, les conditions d’études dans des filières où les hommes sont majoritaires conditionnent encore fortement les cursus post-baccalauréat des femmes.

    Formation continue et parcours professionnels : entre aspirations des salariés et contexte de l’entreprise (2022)
    Céreq
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-09-06
    Description: « Levier déterminant de la compétitivité des entreprises », « élément structurant de la sécurisation des parcours des personnes », instrument de « liberté de choisir son avenir professionnel », la formation continue est érigée en solution privilégiée pour le marché du travail. Les enjeux de la crise ouverte par la pandémie du Covid 19 pourraient bien aussi se décliner en termes de formation continue, notamment autour des besoins de reconversion. Pourtant, concilier les besoins des entreprises avec les aspirations professionnelles des personnes ne va pas de soi. Les travaux présentés dans cet ouvrage collectif, réalisés dans le cadre du premier groupe d’exploitation du Dispositif d’enquêtes couplées sur les formations et les itinéraires des salariés (Defis), éclairent, chacun à sa façon et sous des angles variés, les multiples enjeux de la formation continue. Ils questionnent la formation des salariés en lien avec leurs aspirations et les parcours professionnels. Ils tentent également de mieux comprendre la manière dont les différentes configurations productives et le contexte des entreprises peuvent influencer leurs pratiques de formation, de recrutement et autres modes d’acquisition des compétences. Conçu comme un lieu d’échanges et de dialogue pluridisciplinaire autour des données Defis, le groupe d’exploitation a réuni des chercheurs issus du Céreq, des universités ou laboratoires CNRS et autres organismes publics. Leurs appartenances disciplinaires sont variées (économie, sociologie, gestion, sciences de l’éducation) et les méthodologies mobilisées associent parfois une approche qualitative à l’analyse des données quantitatives.

    Machine Scoring of Student Essays (2023)
    University Press of Colorado | Utah State University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: The current trend toward machine-scoring of student work, Ericsson and Haswell argue, has created an emerging issue with implications for higher education across the disciplines, but with particular importance for those in English departments and in administration. The academic community has been silent on the issue-some would say excluded from it-while the commercial entities who develop essay-scoring software have been very active. Machine Scoring of Student Essays is the first volume to seriously consider the educational mechanisms and consequences of this trend, and it offers important discussions from some of the leading scholars in writing assessment. Reading and evaluating student writing is a time-consuming process, yet it is a vital part of both student placement and coursework at post-secondary institutions. In recent years, commercial computer-evaluation programs have been developed to score student essays in both of these contexts. Two-year colleges have been especially drawn to these programs, but four-year institutions are moving to them as well, because of the cost-savings they promise. Unfortunately, to a large extent, the programs have been written, and institutions are installing them, without attention to their instructional validity or adequacy. Since the education software companies are moving so rapidly into what they perceive as a promising new market, a wider discussion of machine-scoring is vital if scholars hope to influence development and/or implementation of the programs being created. What is needed, then, is a critical resource to help teachers and administrators evaluate programs they might be considering, and to more fully envision the instructional consequences of adopting them. And this is the resource that Ericsson and Haswell are providing here.

    Animals and Inequality in the Ancient World (2021)
    University Press of Colorado | University Press of Colorado
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-04-02
    Description: Animals and Inequality in the Ancient World explores the current trends in the social archaeology of human-animal relationships, focusing on the ways in which animals are used to structure, create, support, and even deconstruct social inequalities. The authors provide a global range of case studies from both New and Old World archaeology—royal Aztec dog burial, the monumental horse tombs of Central Asia, and the ceremonial macaw cages of ancient Mexico among them. They explore the complex relationships between people and animals in social, economic, political, and ritual contexts, incorporating animal remains from archaeological sites with artifacts, texts, and iconography to develop their interpretations. Animals and Inequality in the Ancient World presents new data and interpretations that reveal the role of animals, their products, and their symbolism in structuring social inequalities in the ancient world. The volume will be of interest to archaeologists, especially zooarchaeologists, and classical scholars of pre-modern civilizations and societies.  Contributors: Alejandra Aguirre Molina, Benjamin S.

    Facing the Center (2023)
    University Press of Colorado | Utah State University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: In the diversity of their clients as well as their professional and student staff, writing centers present a complicated set of relationships that inevitably affect the instruction they offer. In Facing the Center, Harry Denny unpacks the identity matrices that enrich teachable moments, and he explores the pedagogical dynamics and implications of identity within the writing center. The face of the writing center, be it mainstream or marginal, majority or miority, orthodox or subversive, always has implications for teaching and learning. Facing the Center will extend current research in writing center theory to bring it in touch with theories now common in cultural studies curricula. Denny takes up issues of power, agency, language, and meaning, and pushes his readers to ask how they themselves, or the centers in which they work, might be perpetuating cultures that undermine inclusive, progressive education.

    What We Really Value (2023)
    University Press of Colorado | Utah State University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-03-29
    Description: What We Really Value traces the origins of traditional rubrics within the theoretical and historical circumstances out of which they emerged, then holds rubrics up for critical scrutiny in the context of contemporary developments in the field. As an alternative to the generic character and decontextualized function of scoring guides, he offers dynamic criteria mapping, a form of qualitative inquiry by which writing programs (as well as individual instructors) can portray their rhetorical values with more ethical integrity and more pedagogical utility than rubrics allow. To illustrate the complex and indispensable insights this method can provide, Broad details findings from his study of eighty-nine distinct and substantial criteria for evaluation at work in the introductory composition program at "City University." These chapters are filled with the voices of composition instructors debating and reflecting on the nature, interplay, and relative importance of the many criteria by which they judged students' texts. Broad concludes his book with specific strategies that can help writing instructors and programs to discover, negotiate, map, and express a more robust truth about what they value in their students' rhetorical performances.

    Sélections, du système éducatif au marché du travail (2022)
    Céreq
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-09-06
    Description: Les enjeux des 26èmes journées du longitudinal (JDL) étaient d’examiner les formes de la sélection, ainsi que leurs évolutions et leurs articulations, d’interroger l’expérience de celles et de ceux qui sont sélectionnés et de celles et de ceux qui sélectionnent et de distinguer les ressemblances et les dissemblances entre les deux univers scolaire et professionnel. L’approche longitudinale requise pour ces journées a permis d’analyser les sélections successives au fil des parcours, dans le système éducatif puis vers et sur le marché du travail, ceci notamment en examinant les déterminants qui conduisent à accéder ou non à telle ou telle position dans le système éducatif (niveau, filière, spécialité, etc.) ou sur le marché du travail (qualification, secteur, etc.). À cette fin, les contributions se sont appuyées sur des méthodes quantitatives, via des enquêtes nationales ou locales, ou qualitatives, par des entretiens biographiques et/ou des interrogations répétées. Ces journées ont été organisées par le centre associé au Céreq de Toulouse du Laboratoire CERTOP (UMR-CNRS et Université Jean-Jaurès), avec la participation des laboratoires EFTS (UMR Université Jean-Jaurès et ENSFEA) et LPS-DT (EA Université Jean-Jaurès). Elles se sont déroulées en visioconférences, les 12 et 13 novembre 2020, et ont bénéficié du soutien financier de l’Université Jean-Jaurès Toulouse 2, de l’Institut national de la jeunesse et de l’éducation populaire (INJEP), du Céreq et des trois laboratoires organisateurs. Depuis plus de 20 ans, les JDL sont organisées par le Céreq ou un de ses centres régionaux associés. Elles regroupent une centaine de chercheur·e·s autour d’une thématique inscrite dans une approche longitudinale de l’analyse de la relation formation-emploi. Les actes des rencontres sont édités tous les ans par le Céreq.
