Eng. 3029 - Moreno
Moreno's main focus seems to be expressing two highlights: 1. How social and pedagogical issues shape upper-class students who are of more than one culture, and 2. How these types of students use literacy in their everyday worlds to create their own individuality. Each of these points is reflected upon ways in which Moreno describes literacy as "In a University, a tool for control and colonization and... is also used for socializing students to the use of language and discourses in Educational Institutions..." This reflects on how every person uses writing to connect thoughts and ideas. In a shell, readers become informed that these two major theories above are learned thoughout this Article.
In addition, Moreno states how people of different races, ethnics, and cultures are all individuals who should be treated as fair human beings. Adding on, the Sermon explains how everyone learns how literacy is a primary focus in the world. No matter what language a person speaks, we can all communicate with one another, which is why language is such a demanding feature in our world today. Additionally, Moreno impacts how we are all team players in the world, who even though we are all from different cultures, we can still relate to one another.
The Methodological Approach that Moreno seems to be using is the "Social Constructivist Perspective", considering the Article seems to be based on various types of people who learn in different ways all surrounding the theory of Literary Analysis. In my opinion, it does not matter what type of race, gender, or ethicity you have...everyone is an equal person in our world and can be granted the gift of writing, reading, and use of language.
Moreover, methods which could be used based on this Article seem to be "Quantitative Studies" and "Oral History". First, Quantitative Studies are reflected in ways of having numbers of people be involved in the same process, being able to learn writing and reading. Several studies regarding this can be used in business and organizations with groups of people, such as with people in meetings, classrooms with students, etc. Also, regarding the "Oral History" perspective, readers could refer to different types of people and study how everyone learns differently, however we can all learn the same thing, even if it is presented in a different way. Our world is surrounded among various backgrounds and we should all be treated in a positive manner. These are just two of the ways how a researcher can use their skills to gather data and perform an experiement with given variables or be presented with certain variables and form hypotheses to present evidence.
Furthermore, by asking questions, listening, responding, conducting interviews, and even more skills, researchers can determine ways to find out more evidence from their given applicants. Such techniques as these can be used by any researcher to conduct an experiment. Overall, such "tools" can assist anyone in conducting an experiment or gain information about a particular subject.
In conclusion, I would use this "Social Constructivist Approach" in my own classroom to gain knowledge about my students. For instance, I might ask my second graders to create an "All About Me" book, which would consist of their name and two pages of what they like to do, as well as who is in their family. Additionally, they would draw pictures and write what each picture represented. This approach would reflect the interviewing concept, considering I will be asking/telling them the questions/topics of what to add in their books, which would then allow me to find out more about themselves.
