Abstract

This guide, intended for secondary school teachers of French and Spanish, integrates the teaching of culture and literature with a focus on the child in the target culture. The readings and discussion notes are designed to focus student attention on the target culture through these topics. An introductory section discusses the teaching of culture through literature. The second section provides reading outlines for independent study on specific segments of Francophone and Spanish literature (e.g., African and Antillean, Mexican, etc.). The third section contains a series of short papers on children in literature, and the fourth consists of instructional plans for individual literary works. The fifth and final section lists supplementary instructional aids and materials for each language. An extensive list of references is contained in this section. Contents are in English, French, and Spanish. (MSE)

Abstract

Composed of two sections, this catalog lists 925 documents prepared for and produced by the 37th through the 40th sessions of the International Conference on Education (1979, 1981, 1984, and 1986). Included are reference and information papers contributed by the United Nations Educational, Scientific, and Cultural Organization (Unesco) headquarters units and other institutions; final reports and recommendations to the Ministries of Education on themes from each of the Conferences; and reports on the development of the education systems of individual member states. In the first section, the national reports and replies to questionnaires are listed by country in alphabetical order by the English name of the country. In the second section, the Conference documents--i.e., the working papers and the final report for each session--are listed in chronological order of the session. Entries include the authoring country, conference year, agency or organization from which the document originated, individual author, document title, place of publication, publisher, date of publication, number of pages, questionnaire reference number, and English keyword indexing terms for computer storage and retrieval from the 1984 edition of the "UNESCO: International Bureau of Educaton Thesaurus." The table of contents and introduction appear in English, French, and Spanish; the titles of many of the documents are in the language of the country of origin. (SD)
