Reframing the Master Narratives of Dis/ability at my Intersections: An Outline of an Educational Equity Research Agenda

This article outlines a call for a renewed research agenda on the social and emotional dimensions of Learning Disabilities (LD). This research agenda reframes LD by interrogating the academic, social and emotional master narratives of LD through the talk of Latina/o students with LD using an interdisciplinary and socio-cultural historical developmental perspective. In particular, this reframing entails exploring the social and emotional construction of LD at the intersections of the Latina/o student population. Interweaving my own history with LD, I describe the overwhelming feelings of discomfort and anxiety from wrestling with the label. I came to see the label as an imposed identity from the educational system in response to my unique constellation of differences. Examining LD through the lens of emotion and from the perspectives of those living under the label helps us better recognize that it cannot be detached from the other socio-cultural identities that are part of being and becoming a whole person.KeywordsLearning disabilities; intersectionality; Disability Studies in Education; emotionality; race Redéfinir les principaux récits sur le handicap à mes intersections:  Un aperçu d'un programme de recherche sur l'équité en éducation RésuméCet article présente un appel pour un programme de recherche renouvelé sur les dimensions sociales et émotionnelles des troubles d’apprentissage (TA).   Ce programme de recherche redéfinit le TA en interrogeant le monde académiques, sociaux et émotionnels de TA à travers une discussion d'étudiant (e) latino avec TA en utilisant une perspective de développement socioculturel historique et interdisciplinaire. En particulier, ce recadrage implique l'exploration de la construction sociale et émotionnelle des TA aux intersections de la population étudiante latino. Entremêlant ma propre histoire avec TA, je décris les sentiments accablants d'inconfort et d'anxiété de la lutte contre l'étiquette.  Je suis venu à voir l'étiquette comme une identité imposée du système éducatif en réponse à ma constellation unique de différences. En examinant le TA à travers une lentille d’émotion et du point de vue de ceux qui vivent sous l’étiquette nous aide à mieux reconnaître qu'il ne peut être détaché des autres identités socioculturelles qui font partie de l'être et qui aident à devenir une personne entière.Mots clefs Troubles d'apprentissage; intersectionnalité; études sur le handicap dans l'éducation; émotivité; rac

2S1. Re-Framing Master Narratives of Dis/ability Through an Emotion Lens: Sophia Cruz’s LD Story at her Intersections

Learning disabilities (LD) researchers have produced a knowledge base about the academic side of LD. A gap exists concerning the experiences of individuals with LD, particularly their feeling-meaning-making about having LD. Based on a three-year qualitative study using critical ethnographic methods, I center Sophia Cruz\u27s experiences with LD and the label. Sophia experienced the hegemony of smartness and disability micro-aggressions and voiced the idea that LD is a complex multifaceted construct. I discuss implications for the LD field. In addition, I provide tools for participants to improve their ability to work with historically marginalized team members and populations such as students with dis/abilities at their intersections

A landscape of repair

This paper reports on EPSRC-funded research that explores the role of repair in creating new models of sustainable business. In the lifecycle stage of repair we explore what 'broken' means and uncover the nature of local and dispersed repair activities. This in turn allows us to better understand how the relationship between products and people can help shape new modes of consumption. Therefore, narratives of repair are collected to identify diverse people-product interactions and illustrate the different characteristics of, and motivations for, repair. The paper proposes that mapping the different product-people interactions across the product lifecycle, particularly at the stage of fragile-functionality (performance or function failure, emotional disengagement, superseded technology) is important in understanding the potential for enduring products and their repair. Building a landscape of repair creates new opportunities for manufacture and for slowing resource loops across product lifetimes, which together provide a framework for a sufficiency-based model of production and consumption

Examinando a narrativa-mestra do “grit”: Contra-narrativas com alunos negros e latino-americanos com deficiências durante uma era de testes “high-stakes”

In this study we trouble the notion of “grit” and “high-stakes” testing by focusing on the experiences and perspectives of Black and Latinx students labeled with dis/abilities with the California High School Exit Exam (CAHSEE). Through interviews, focus groups, and classroom observations with 15 Black and Latinx students labeled with dis/abilities, we utilize the power of student voice and counterstories to problematize the master narrative of a “grit”/no “grit” binary in education policy discourse. This binary has contributed to an educational culture that reinforces victim blaming, reifies inequities for Black and Latinx students with dis/abilities, and undermines students’ emotional wellbeing. Harnessing the power of the students’ experiences and perspectives, we conclude with recommendations for policy and practice.En este estudio, examinamos la noción de pruebas de “grit” y de “high-stakes” centrándonos en las experiencias y perspectivas de los estudiantes negros y latinx con discapacidades con el California High School Exit Exam (CAHSEE). A través de entrevistas, grupos focales y observaciones en el aula con 15 estudiantes negros y latinx con discapacidades, utilizamos el poder de las voces y las contra-narratives de los estudiantes para problematizar la narrativa magistral de un discurso binario “grit” / no “grit” dentro de política educativa. Este binario ha contribuido a una cultura educativa que refuerza el culpar a las víctimas, refuerza las inequidades para los estudiantes con discapacidades y socava el bienestar emocional de los estudiantes. Aprovechando el poder de las experiencias y perspectivas de los estudiantes, concluimos con recomendaciones para políticas y prácticas.Neste estudo, examinamos a noção de “grit” e “high-stakes” com foco nas experiências e perspectivas de alunos negros e latinos com deficiência, com o California High School Exit Exam (CAHSEE).

Relația interese publice - proces decizional administrativ local în țările spațiului comunitar european: studiu comparativ

Autorii scot în evidență importanța bunelor practici a țărilor spațiului comunitar pentru Republica Moldova. Administrația publică locală reprezintă unul dintre cele mai importante atribute ale societății democratice. Anume la nivelul dat se formează rădăcinile democrației, iar aceasta determină semnificația organelor locale, care ocupă o parte considerabilă în sistemul administrativ în ansambu. Tendința statelor spre modernizare creează premise de elaborare a unor standarde privind administrația publică locală, aplicarea unor principii comune de organizare și funcționare a acesteia, definite prin lege și aplicate în practică. Iar identificarea unui model potrivit și eficient de manifestare și realizare a relației respective reprezintă un prim obiectiv. În acest context, în articol se analizează structura administrației publice locale, accentul fiind pus pe manifestarea relației interese publice – proces decizional în diferite state ale spațiului comunitar. În funcție de particularitățile specifice, autorii constată că realizarea acestei relații diferă de la un stat la altul. Iar principiul descentralizării și autonomiei locale este acela care stă la bază fortificării administrațiilor publice locale din diferite țări
