O texto está organizado em três capítulos. No primeiro capítulo descrevemos o caso de gestão estudado, subsidiando a escrita com textos que abordam contextos sócio-políticos e expressam a forma de organização atual do Ensino Médio, como um todo, e do Ensino Médio Noturno, em particular. Evidenciamos também, no capítulo 1, através dos dados do rendimento escolar, os resultados de aprendizagem das Escolas de Ensino Médio da CDE02. No segundo capítulo expomos os quatro eixos que integraram a pesquisa, gestão escolar, docência, organização curricular, fluxo e distorção idade/série, dialogando com os autores do ramo educacional que trouxeram fundamento teórico tais como: Luck (2009) e Machado (2011). Togni e Carvalho (2007) e Hagemeyer (2004). Tavares ( 2014). Por meio do estudo dos eixos foi possível identificar a importância de um gerenciamento participativo para a integração do aluno, a influência da docência na motivação e aprendizagem do educando, a necessidade de uma organização curricular mais próxima da realidade do educando e os percalços de um fluxo escolar interrompido. A metodologia de natureza qualitativa e o instrumento de coleta de dados, entrevista semiestruturada, realizado com a equipe gestora, a análise de dados secundários e documental integram o capítulo 2. No terceiro e último capítulo propomos ações de melhoria descritas no Plano de Ação Educacional parametrizadas pelos resultados encontrados na pesquisa. Os resultados apontam que, é preciso saber lidar com as diferenças e lacunas de aprendizagem do educando para a permanência do mesmo. O docente ainda é referência para o estudante do Ensino Médio, a relação entre educando e professor interfere no seu aprendizado e desempenho. A escola precisa proporcionar um espaço educativo que amplie a aprendizagem por meio da articulação do ensino dos componentes curriculares das áreas afins em prol de garantir não somente o acesso, mas o sucesso e permanência do educando. A expansão das matrículas não garante a permanência nem a conclusão dos estudos por parte do estudante apesar da igualdade de condições de acesso, para que haja equidade de permanência é necessário que o estudante do Ensino Médio Noturno tenha oportunidade igual para concluir seus estudos no tempo certo. / This dissertation, developed within Professional Master in Management and Education Assessment (PPGP) of the Public Policy Center and Education Assessment of the Juiz de Fora Federal University (CAEd/UFJF), presents in its content an analysis of the High School income indicators for the night shift of the State school of Coodenadoria Distrital da Educação 02 (CDE02) in Manaus. The text is organized in three chapters. In the first chapter we describe the case of studied management, subdisizing the writing with texts that approach contexts politicalpartner and express the way of current organization of the High School, as a whole, and the High School night shift, in private. We also evidence, in the chapter 1, through the school performances data, the results of the learning in High School levels of CDE02. In the chapter 2 we expose four axis that integrate the research, school management, teaching, curricular organization, flow and age distortion/grade, dialoguing with the writes of the education career who brought theorical foundation such as: Luck (2009) and Machado (2011). Togni and Carvalho (2007) and Hagemeyer (2004). Tavares (2014). By means of study it was possible to identify the importance of the participatory management for the integration for the student´s integration, the influence of teaching in the motivation and the student´s learning process, the need of a curricular organization closer to the reality of the student and the mishaps of a school flow interrupted. In the third chapter we suggest improvement actions described in the educational action plan parameterized by the results achieved in the research. The results aim that, it´s necessary to know how to deal with diferences and gaps of the student´s learning himself. The teacher is still a reference for the high school student, the relation between the studnet and the teacher.The school needs to provide an educational environment that enlarges the learning by means of articulation of the curricular componentes of the related area so that it can guarantee not only access, but the succeess and permanence of the student. The expansion of registrations does not guarantee the permanence neither the conclusion of the studies by the students, although the iguality of access conditions, so that there is equity of permanence is necessary that the night high school student has the same opportunity to accomplish his or her studies in time.

A pesquisa serviu-se de indivíduos de ambos os gêneros, oriundos de todas as séries do Ensino Fundamental de uma escola pública da periferia de Pelotas-RS. Detectou-se que a aprovação, reprovação, transferências e evasão escolar podem estar relacionadas ao uso de marcadores linguísticos entre os gêneros, determinados pela linguagem, cultura e identidade. Estes são fatores sociolinguísticos apontados como possíveis causas de que o desempenho escolar de meninos seja pior do que o de meninas. O procedimento metodológico utilizado foi o método quantitativo correlacionado com os estudos sociolinguísticos labovianos. Os dados foram colhidos através de um Banco de Dados de Demografia Escolar – BDDE e por um estudo complementar da língua escrita, baseado em redações de alunos em sala de aula. A análise tomou como parâmetro as contribuições de especialistas sociolinguistas, como Labov (2008), entre outros. Os principais resultados auferidos destacam que a escola desenvolve um modelo pedagógico que privilegia uma língua padrão que favorece o gênero feminino, isto está demonstrado pelo baixo desempenho escolar dos adolescentes do gênero masculino; as meninas têm melhor índice de desempenho escolar na faixa etária entre dez e onze anos e os meninos pré-adolescentes nesta mesma faixa etária têm seu desempenho escolar prejudicado, porque não se adaptam ao ambiente escolar; a linguagem, cultura e identidade, podem influenciar nas altas taxas de reprovação; os meninos e pré adolescentes perdem o interesse pelo estudo, têm dificuldade de acompanhar os conteúdos do currículo escolar, têm baixa estima. / It examines critically the academic performance of teenagers occurred in a predefined chronological space. Research poured individuals of both genders, coming from all elementary school grades of a public school in the outskirts of Pelotas-RS. Detector if that approval, disapproval, transfers and truancy can is related to the use of linguistic markers between genders, determined by language, culture and identity. These are sociolinguistic factors mentioned as possible causes that academic performance of boys is worse than that of girls. The methodological procedure used was the quantitative method correlated with the studies sociolinguistic Labovianos. Data were collected through a School Demographics Database - BDDE and a complementary study of the written language, based on essays of students in the classroom. The analysis took as a parameter the contributions of Sociolinguists experts, as Labov (2008), among others. The main earned results highlight that the school develops an educational model that favors a standard language that favors females, this is demonstrated by the low academic performance of male adolescents; girls have better school performance index in the age group between ten and eleven and pre-teen boys in this age group have their poor school performance, why not adapt to the school environment; language, culture and identity, can influence the high failure rates; boys and pre teens lose interest in the study, have difficulty in following the school curriculum content, have low esteem.

Na realidade brasileira, existem poucos instrumentos específicos e com evidências de validade para medir o engajamento escolar. O presente estudo teve como objetivos adaptar e obter evidências de validade da escala EAE-4DE para o contexto brasileiro, bem como relacionar os tipos de engajamento com o desempenho acadêmico e a compreensão de leitura. Participaram da pesquisa 258 estudantes do 6º ano do ensino fundamental, de escolas públicas e privadas. A adaptação da escala EAE-4DE foi satisfatória com base na análise de juízes, em que o índice Kappa de concordância foi de 0,956, e, também foram obtidas evidências de validade com base na análise fatorial. As medidas de engajamento escolar consideradas em conjunto não apresentaram relação significativa com a compreensão de leitura, porém apresentaram uma relação próxima à moderada com a média escolar. / The term school engagement is understood as the level of student’s involvement in school activities, consisting in four dimensions: behavioral, cognitive, emotional and agent. In Brazilian reality, there are few specific tools and evidence of validity to measure school engagement. This study aimed to adapt and bring evidence of validity of EAE - 4DE scale for the Brazilian context as well as relate the types of engagement with the academic performance and reading comprehension. 258 students from the 6th grade of private and public elementary schools took part in the study. The adaptation of EAE - 4DE scale was satisfactory based on the judges’ analysis, in which Kappa index of concordance was 0,956, also obtained evidence of validity based on factor analysis. The school engagement measures taken together showed no significant relationship with reading comprehension, despite they showed a close to moderate relationship with the school average.

Globally, a wealth of educational data has been collected on learner performance in a bid to improve and monitor the quality of education. Unfortunately, the data seem to have had only limited influence on learning and teaching in classrooms. This thesis aimed to bridge this gap between the availability of learner performance data and their use in informing planning and action in schools. A design research approach was used to optimise the feedback system for the South African Monitoring system for Primary schools (SAMP). Design research aims to produce both an intervention to address a complex real-world challenge and to develop design guidelines to support other designers faced with similar challenges in their own context. In this research, the process of developing and improving the feedback system was also used to examine ways of facilitating the use of the feedback. Multiple cycles of design, implementation and evaluation of four different prototypes of the feedback system were conducted, employing evaluations from both experts (e.g. Dutch and South African academics, research and educational psychologists, instrument designers and teacher trainers) as well as school users (teachers, principals and HoDs). Mixed methods were employed throughout the study, with different sub-samples of school users sampled from the population of 22 schools (English, Afrikaans and Sepedi) in the Tshwane region participating in SAMP. The various research cycles incorporated interviews, observations, journals, questionnaires, the Delphi technique and expert evaluations to examine not only data-use, but also aspects such as problem-solving, planning, data-literacy and attitudes towards evidence-based practice in the schools. Data was analysed using Rasch Modelling, descriptive statistics and computer-aided qualitative data analysis. The study showed that an effective feedback system facilitates appropriate use through a gradual process of enlightenment, is flexible and responsive to user inputs, values collaboration and includes instrument, reporting and support components in its design. An optimum feedback system also positively influences school feedback and monitoring culture by providing opportunities for positive experiences with feedback and increasing data-literacy. This improves the chances of feedback being used for planning, decision-making and action in the schools. An effective feedback system must also offer a comprehensive package to accommodate different users, with various levels of data sophistication, functioning in diverse contexts. The research also showed that an effective feedback system mediates thinking about educational instruction and curriculum and can therefore be a potent change agent. Use of clear, simple, intuitive data presentation in the feedback system allows for experiential learning to increase user data-literacy. The design research approach employed in this study offers an appropriate and powerful approach to adapting, developing and optimising a feedback system. User involvement in design research ensures greater contextualisation and familiarity with the system, while engendering trust and a greater sense of ownership, all of which increase the receptiveness and responsiveness of users to feedback. Finally, the research also contributed design guidelines for other developers of feedback systems, an integrated conceptual framework for use of monitoring feedback and a functioning feedback system employed by 22 schools in the Tshwane region. / Thesis (PhD)--University of Pretoria, 2010. / Science, Mathematics and Technology Education / unrestricted

Det övergripande syftet med denna studie är att undersöka vikten av förälders engagemang i skolan samt att utforska om samarbete mellan hem och skola har en positiv påverkan på barns skolprestation. Vi har ställt upp följande frågeställningar: 1) Vad innebär föräldraengagemang i skolan? 2) Vilka hinder och utmaningar kan vi hitta i föräldrars engagemang i sitt barns skolgång? 3) Vilken betydelse har föräldrars engagemang för elevens prestation i skolan? 4) Vilken betydelse har föräldrars och lärares interaktion för elevens prestation i skolan? Vi har använt en kvalitativ metod, där semistrukturerade intervjuer har genomförts med ett antal lärare och föräldrar. Analys har gjorts med hjälp av fenomenografisk metod.  Resultatet av vår studie visar tydligt att de elever vars förälder aktivt deltar i och stödjer deras skolgång har lättare att tillgodogöra sig utbildningen. I stort sett alla informanter är överens om att interaktion mellan hem och skola gör ett barns inlärningsprocess både enklare och roligare. Det vill säga, om både förälder och skola interagerar och effektivt deltar i barnets skolgång ser vi som resultat inte bara en ökad inlärningseffekt utan även en god social utveckling hos eleven. Många skolor i Sverige har insett detta och arbetar numera aktivt för att involvera föräldern mer aktivt i sitt barns skolgång. / The overall purpose of this study is to investigate the importance of parents' involvement in school and to explore whether cooperation between home and school has a positive impact on children's school performance. We have posed the following questions: 1) What does parental involvement in school mean? 2) What obstacles and challenges can we find in parents' involvement in their child's schooling? 3) What is the significance of parents' commitment to the student's performance in school? 4) What significance does the interaction of parents and teachers have for the student's performance in school? We have used a qualitative method, where semi-structured interviews have been conducted with a number of teachers and parents. Analysis has been done using a phenomenographic method. The results of our study clearly show that the students whose parents actively participate in and support their schooling have an easier time assimilating the education. Virtually all informants agree that interaction between home and school makes a child's learning process both easier and more fun. That is, if both parent and school interact and effectively participate in the child's schooling, we see as a result not only an increased learning effect but also a good social development in the student. Many schools in Sweden have realized this and are now working actively to involve the parent more actively in their child's schooling.

America is in the midst of a high school dropout crisis that will cost $3 trillion in lost wages over the lifetime of the 12 million students who are predicted to drop out. Each year, in an America's northern states, approximately 10,000 students drop out of high school; the majority of these students are Hispanic. Guided by Ogbu's cultural-ecological theory of academic disengagement, the purpose of this phenomenological study was to understand the experiences of Hispanics who dropped out of high school and their rationales for dropping out.. Eight Hispanic dropouts in a local community were interviewed. The interviews were transcribed and interrogated via inductive analysis. Findings in this study show that the system and community forces that impeded academic achievement were in similar to those of Ogbu's findings. However, contrary to this theory, the participants in this study did not report any discrimination. The participants dropped out due to academic difficulties, early parenthood, and a lack of parental support. Hispanics' perspectives are needed if administrators and other stakeholders are to develop and apply ethnically skilled policies and performances that could be effective in accommodating Hispanics' educational needs. Reducing Hispanics' high school dropout rates will benefit taxpayers by providing substantial economic return. Guided by these findings, the school board will be equipped to support their educators, which in return could produce quality academic performance among Hispanic students.

La relation élève-enseignant (REE) est reconnue comme étant optimale lorsqu’elle est fortement chaleureuse et faiblement conflictuelle. Sur le plan empirique, plusieurs évidences montrent que la qualité de la REE est liée significativement à divers indicateurs de la réussite scolaire. De façon générale, celles-ci affirment que plus un élève entretient une relation optimale avec son enseignant, plus ses résultats scolaires sont élevés, plus il adopte des comportements prosociaux, et plus il présente des affects et des comportements positifs envers l’école. Des études précisent également que l’influence de la qualité de la REE est particulièrement importante chez les élèves à risque. Si les effets positifs d’une REE optimale sont bien connus, les facteurs favorisant son émergence sont quant à eux moins bien compris. En fait, bien que certains attributs personnels de l’élève ou de l’enseignant aient été identifiés comme participant significativement à la qualité de la REE, peu d’études ont investigué l’importance des facteurs psychologiques et contextuels dans l’explication de ce phénomène. Souhaitant pallier cette lacune, la présente étude poursuit trois objectifs qui sont: 1) d’examiner les liens entre les stresseurs, le soutien social, la santé psychologique au travail (SPT) et la qualité de la REE; 2) de vérifier l’effet médiateur de la SPT dans la relation entre les stresseurs, le soutien social et la qualité de la REE, et; 3) d’examiner les différences quant aux liens répertoriés auprès d’élèves réguliers et à risque. Afin d’atteindre ces objectifs, 231 enseignants québécois de niveau préscolaire et primaire ont été investigués. Les résultats des analyses montrent que les comportements perturbateurs des élèves en classe prédisent positivement le conflit entre l’enseignant et les élèves à risque. Ils montrent également que le soutien des parents et le soutien du supérieur prédisent respectivement la présence de REE chaleureuses chez les élèves réguliers et à risque. La SPT de l’enseignant prédit quant à elle positivement la présence de REE chaleureuses et négativement la présence de REE conflictuelles. Les résultats de cette recherche montrent aussi que le soutien social affecte indirectement la présence de REE chaleureuses par le biais de la SPT de l’enseignant. / An optimal student-teacher relationship (STR) is generally recognized as being closer and less conflictual. In the scientific documentation, many studies show that the quality of the STR is significantly associated with several indicators of school performance. More precisely, the results of these investigations demonstrate that the more a student share an optimal relationship with his teacher, the higher are his results at tests and exams, the more he adopts prosocial behaviors, and the more he presents positive affects and behaviors towards school and learning. Many studies also show that the influence of the quality of the STR is more important for students at-risk. However, even if the positive effects of an optimal STR on school performance are known, the knowledge about the factors that facilitate its emergence is still very limited. Although some predictors related to personal attributes of students or teachers have been highlighted, few studies have investigated the importance of psychological and contextual predictors of this phenomena. In an attempt to alleviate this deficiency, this research pursues three objectives that are : 1) to verify the relationship between stressors, social support, psychological health at work (PHW) and the quality of the STR; 2) to examine the moderating effect of PHW in the relationship between stressors, social support and the quality of the STR, and; 3) to verify the differences highlighted in the results for regular and at-risk students. In order to verify these three objectives, 231 teachers from the province of Quebec teaching in kindergarten and elementary school have been studied. The results from the analyses show that the disruptive behaviors of students in class predict positively the conflict between teachers and students at-risk. The results also show that social support from parents is positivelly related to closeness for regular students, whereas social support from the director is positivelly related to closeness for students at-risk. Teacher’s PHW also predicts positively closeness and negatively conflict for both regular and at-risk students. The results of the analyses also demonstrate that social support is indirectly related to closeness for regular and at-risk students, through PHW.

In order to achieve the proposed objectives, we carried out a bibliographic research and established the state of the art in the academic-scientific literature regarding the categorization or ranking of schools by color, empirical research in order to understand the operation, implementation and extinction of this initiative in the light of perceptions of the school directors and regional directorates of education managers and, finally, documentary research, to study the repercussion of the implementation from the news reports published in the mainstream press, in the trade union press and in data on legal proceedings instituted against the Education of the State of S?o Paulo. The research pointed out that in the academic-scientific literature, in the mainstream press and in the legal media, there is a tendency to value the awards received by schools that obtained high performance in SARESP, with predominantly negative-biased speeches on schools ranking by color, focusing on the resistance of the teachers' union and teachers' dissatisfaction with the neoliberal logic that would be present in the government policies of the PSDB, with a reduced emphasis on positive aspects related to the actions of the State Department of Education. School principals and regional directories of education managers pointed out several positive points related to the categorization or ranking of schools by color, such as the motivation of the school teams that wanted to improve their results, the reflection of the pedagogical practice regarding the results obtained, the secretariat's investments in training courses, funds for underperforming schools, the simplicity of the quality indicator, and the fact that the results of ranking schools took teachers out of a comfort zone. However, the negative points, such as the stigmatization of poor-performing school-based school teams, motivated parents to transfer their children to better-performing schools, as well as the lack of clarity regarding the criteria used in schools ranking, accentuated the dissatisfaction and discomfort of many teachers with the actions that subsidized the categorization or ranking of color schools and raised the level of tension between teachers and the state secretariat of education, pressing the state government to extinguish the initiative in 2002, soon after its implementation. / Por meio da presente disserta??o apresentamos os resultados da pesquisa sobre a iniciativa da Secretaria de Educa??o do Estado de S?o Paulo que, utilizando-se dos resultados do desempenho escolar no SARESP e dados da evas?o escolar, categorizava ou classificava as escolas nas cores azul, verde, amarelo, laranja ou vermelho, com vistas a compreender a trajet?ria, o funcionamento e as rea??es desencadeadas por essa iniciativa governamental no cen?rio educacional. Para atingir os objetivos propostos, realizamos pesquisa bibliogr?fica e estabelecemos o estado da quest?o na literatura acad?mico-cient?fica referente a categoriza??o ou classifica??o das escolas por cores, pesquisa emp?rica com vistas a compreender o funcionamento, a implementa??o e a extin??o dessa iniciativa ? luz das percep??es dos diretores de escola e de gestores das diretorias regionais de ensino e, por fim, pesquisa documental, para estudar a repercuss?o da implementa??o a partir das not?cias veiculadas na grande imprensa, na imprensa sindical e em informa??es constantes de processos judiciais instaurados contra a Secretaria de Educa??o do Estado de S?o Paulo. A pesquisa apontou que na literatura acad?mico-cient?fica, na grande imprensa e nos meios legais h? uma tend?ncia de se valorizar as premia??es recebidas pelas escolas que obtiveram alto desempenho no SARESP, com predomin?ncia de discursos com vi?s negativo sobre a classifica??o das escolas por cores, focados na resist?ncia do sindicato dos professores e na insatisfa??o de professores com a l?gica neoliberal que estaria presente nas pol?ticas governamentais do PSDB, havendo reduzida ?nfase em aspectos positivos relacionados ?s a??es da secretaria estadual de educa??o. Os diretores de escola e gestores das diretorias regionais de ensino apontaram diversos pontos positivos relacionados ? categoriza??o ou classifica??o das escolas por cores, como por exemplo, a motiva??o das equipes escolares que desejavam melhorar seus resultados, a reflex?o da pr?tica pedag?gica diante dos resultados obtidos, os investimentos da secretaria em cursos de capacita??o, as verbas para as escolas com baixo desempenho, a simplicidade do indicador de qualidade e o fato de que os resultados da classifica??o das escolas tiraram os professores de uma zona de conforto. Entretanto, os pontos negativos, como por exemplo a estigmatiza??o das equipes escolares com o r?tulo de ruins que as escolas de baixo desempenho ficaram motivavam pais a transferir seus filhos para escolas com melhor desempenho, e, ainda, a falta de clareza quanto aos crit?rios utilizados na classifica??o das escolas, acentuaram a insatisfa??o e o desconforto de muitos professores com as a??es que subsidiavam a categoriza??o ou classifica??o das escolas por cores e elevaram o n?vel de tens?o entre os professores e a secretaria estadual de educa??o, pressionando o governo estadual a extinguir a iniciativa no ano de 2002, logo ap?s a sua implementa??o.
