Im Rahmen eines Dissertationsvorhabens am Albrecht Daniel Thaer-Institut für Agrar- und Gartenbauwissenschaften der Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin wurde die „Entwicklung beruflicher Handlungskompetenz in der gärtnerischen Berufsausbildung durch die Anwendung des Lernfeldkonzepts“ untersucht und in einem pädagogischen Unterrichtsexperiment an gartenbaulichen Berufsschulen in sechs Bundesländern durchgeführt. Damit eine durchgängige Kompetenz- und Outcome-Orientierung Berücksichtigung finden kann, erweiterte der Autor die Untersuchung zur Kompetenzentwicklung um die Aspekte Kompetenzmessung und Kompetenzbewertung. Basierend auf einer Arbeitsprozessanalyse zum Ausbildungsberuf Gärtner der Fachrichtung Garten- und Landschaftsbau wurden im Dialog mit dem Berufsstand Kriterien und Indikatoren beruflicher Handlungskompetenz von Landschaftsgärtnern definiert sowie berufliche Handlungsfelder (Tätigkeitsfelder) gebildet, aus denen Lernfelder abgeleitet und ein lernfeldstrukturierten Rahmenlehrplan für den berufsbezogenen Unterricht der Berufsschule konzipiert werden konnte. So war es möglich, handlungs- und kompetenzorientierte Lernaufgaben für den Berufsschulunterricht zu entwickeln, die sich an berufstypischen Arbeitssituationen orientieren. Durch die Bearbeitung dieser Lernaufgaben wurden bei den Versuchspersonen didaktisch begründete Lernhandlungen ausgelöst und angestrebte Kompetenzen entwickelt, die mittels eines standardisierten Bewertungsbogens durch Beobachtung (Fremdeinschätzung) und Befragung (Selbsteinschätzung) gemessen werden konnten. Die Bewertung ausgeprägter Kompetenzen erfolgte durch den Einsatz eines outcome-orientierten Abschlusstests „Virtuelle Kleinbaustelle“. Diese schriftliche Mehrfach-Situations-Aufgabe wurde nach Maßgabe eines systematischen Bewertungsrahmens unter Berücksichtigung der Anschlussfähigkeit an DQR und EQR ausgewertet, sodass auf den Erwerb beruflicher Handlungskompetenz in der Ausbildung zum Landschaftsgärtner geschlossen werden kann. / Within a PhD project at the Albrecht Daniel Thaer-Institute for Agricultural and Horticultural Sciences at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin the “development of vocational action competencies regarding the training of gardeners based on the application of the concept of domains of learning” was studied in a teaching experiment at six horticultural vocational schools in six German states. To allow for a consistent focus on competencies and outcome, aspects of competencies measurement and competencies evaluation were included in the study of competency development. Based on an analysis of work processes in occupational training of landscape gardeners, criteria and indicators of vocational action competencies in this field were defined in collaboration with the gardening profession; furthermore, vocational fields of activities were developed. On their basis “domains of learning” (“Lernfelder”) could be derived and accordingly a framework curriculum could be developed for vocational lessons at vocational schools. In this manner it was possible to develop activity- and competence oriented learning tasks for lessons at vocational schools. These learning tasks focus on typical work situations in landscape gardening. When the test persons performed these learning tasks, didactically meaningful learning activities were initiated and the test persons developed the desired competencies. These competencies were measured by means of a standardized evaluation form by observation (external evaluation) and questioning (self-evaluation). The evaluation of profound competencies was carried out using an outcome-oriented final examination tool “small virtual building site”. This written multi-situation task was evaluated according to a systematic evaluation frame under consideration of compatibility with GQF and EQF, so that conclusions can be drawn regarding the acquisition of vocational action competencies during the training for landscape gardener.

Starting trom lhe point that students work less in Physics classes, and afiar they've read some authors concerned with lhe students role in lhe teaching and learning process, such as FREIRE (1987), HERNÁNDEZ (1998), ALMEIDA & JÚNIOR (2004), BORDENAVE & PEREIRA (1997), COLL etal (2001) among others, I led a research in arder to observe, record and analyze lhe students activities in lhe Physics lessons in lhe schools above mentioned.

Therefore, in lhe context of this research, performance of alllevels teachers and education managers is recommended, in lhe research, identification and implementation of all-embracing teaching methodologies which give privilege to lhe activity of lhe learning person in ali processo / Muitas vezes conversando com alunos senti algum desencanto destes em relação à disciplina curricular de Física. A presente dissertação, ao debruçar-se sobre o papel do aluno no processo de ensino-aprendizagem de Física na escola moçambicana tomando como referência duas escolas públicas da cidade da Beira, a saber, Escola Secundária "Samora Moisés Machel" e Escola Secundária "Mateus Sansão Mutemba", pretende compreender as causas do "desencontro" entre os alunos e a Física por um lado, e propor algumas acções a serem realizadas no sentido de tornar o ensino de Física mais relevante e cada vez mais interessante e atractivo para os alunos, por outro. Partindo da hipótese de que os alunos trabalham pouco nas aulas de Física e depois de ler alguns autores preocupados com a questão do papel do aluno no processo de ensino e aprendizagem, tais como FREIRE (1987), HERNÁNDEZ(1998), ALMEIDA & JÚNIOR (2004), BORDENAVE & PEREIRA (1997), COLL et. aI. (2001) entre outros, orientei a pesquisa no sentido de observar, registar e analisar as actividades dos alunos nas aulas de Física naquelas escolas. Em seguida realizei algumas aulas nestas escolas através do método de aprendizagem por projectos com o objectivo de aferir a contribuição deste método no incremento do desempenho dos alunos nas aulas. As conclusões tiradas nesta pesquisa apontam para a predominância do verbo, da retórica nas aulas de Física em detrimento das outras formas recomendadas para o ensino de Ciências Naturais. Os projectos de trabalho realizados na escola, pese embora a sua baixa quantidade e qualidade, representam um indicativo do caminho a seguir no sentido de aumentar o nível do desempenho dos alunos nas aulas de Física Por isso, no contexto da presente pesquisa, recomenda-se o empenho de todos, professores e gestores da Educação em todos os níveis, na pesquisa, identificação e implementação de metodologias de ensino participativos que privilegiem a actividade do sujeito aprendente em todo o processo.

This thesis offers an assessment design for collaborative learning, utilisation of blended learning support through current communication technologies and highlights the crucial role of the tutor. The thesis designed and tested a theoretical framework which encompassed an active learning environment and resulted in the development of the shamrock conceptual framework. To test the theoretical framework, clarify the role of the tutor and the impact on the learner experience two studies were undertaken using pedagogical models that combined the concepts of learner-centric, sociocultural and dialogic perspectives on collaborative learning and technology in meeting the needs of learners in the 21st Century. In the first study, the role of the tutor was found to be crucial in setting, implementing and guiding learners using the assessment design as part of a social constructivist pedagogical practice. The pedagogical approach adopted was to blend face-to-face and Wiki learning experiences and was found to promote learner ownership, engagement and the fostering of a learning community. The second study validated the first and provided additional asynchronous technology experiences in addition to the Wiki blend in the assessment design. Study 2 examined the role of the tutor and the learner whilst using current technologies comprising podcasts and video and a Wiki in the collaborative experience. Findings showed that the Wiki supported community and collaborative aspects of a sociocultural practice whilst learners were engaged in authentic learning activities and led to a well supported learning environment. The importance of technology design and use to accommodate collaborative and community aspects was found to be an essential component. It was found that technology is not simply an add-on but rather needs to be planned and considered purposefully by both tutors and learners when used in a blend to supplement learning on campus as part of an assessment design in higher education. This study has shown that, for this to happen, academics need to be provided with the appropriate support, knowledge and skills required in developing a blended learning experience using a Wiki supplemented by class contact on campus as part of an assessment design.
