The purpose of this study is to describe children’s life issues. What kind ofquestions they have aboutlife, their thoughts about life. Another purpose of this study is to see the differences in how children’s thoughts about life have changed through the years. I have used a book called Barns tankar om livetwritten by Sven G Hartman which I used to make a comparison. This study will alsodiscusswhat the policy documents for Swedish schools say about the subject “life issues” or the questions of life.The method used for this study is a qualitative researchmethod. Eight children got interviewed and the results have been represented in a dialogue together with Hartman (1986) and Hartman (2007) result. For any further research of this study it would be interesting to do a studythat shows whetherSwedish schools follow the policy documents in the case of the “life issues”. To see how much the schools discuss such things.

Bakalauro darbe analizuojamas mokytojo padėjėjo vaidmuo, tenkinant mokinių specialiuosius ugdymosi poreikius. Tyrime dalyvavo 41 mokytojo padėjėjas ir 60 mokytojų, dirbančių su specialiųjų ugdymosi poreikių turinčiais mokiniais. Remiantis moksline literatūra ir teisiniais dokumentais, atskleistas mokytojo padėjėjo vaidmuo pamokinės ir nepamokinės veiklos metu. Anketinės apklausos būdu nustatyta, kokį vaidmenį atlieka mokytojų padėjėjai ir kokios pagalbos mokytojams paprastai reikia iš jų padėjėjų. Atliktas empirinis tyrimas atskleidė mokytojų padėjėjų vaidmenis: ugdo, konsultuoja, pataria, tarpininkauja, organizuoja įvairias veiklas, informuoja, globoja, užtaria mokinius, padeda susitvarkyti daiktus ar aplinką, padeda susitvarkyti higieną, slaugo bei prižiūri. Be to, empirinio tyrimo metu, išryškėjo mokytojų lūkesčiai: mokytojo padėjėjas turi padėti atlikti SUP turintiems mokiniams užduotis, mokėti paruošti metodines priemones, gebėti ugdyti socialinius įgūdžius bei patarti, padėti, globoti, padėti apsitarnauti. Beveik visi respondentai teigia, jog pagrindinis mokytojo padėjėjo vaidmuo – pagalbininkas. Išanalizuota ir atskleista mokytojų ir mokytojų padėjėjų nuomonė dėl mokytojo padėjėjo rengimo ir galimo jo vaidmens. Tiek mokytojų padėjėjai, tiek mokytojai teigia, kad norint kokybiškai tenkinti SUP mokinių ugdymosi poreikius, mokytojų padėjėjams būtinos papildomos specialiosios pedagogikos ir psichologijos žinios. Mokytojų padėjėjai pasigenda komandinio darbo, jiems...

According to the scientific literature and legal documents revealed the role of the classroom teacher assistant, and extracurricular activities. The questionnaire has showed what kind of help teachers usually need from their assistants and what they get in the reality. Teachers and assistants opinion has been disclosed on the matter of education which is needed for their roles. The empirical study revealed the role of teacher assistants: most assistants educates students, consults, advises, mediates and organizes various activities, patronages, intercedes, helps managing things, environment, helps with hygiene, nursing and supervision. In addition to above mentioned, the empirical study revealed teachers expectations: teacher assistants at school helps pupils with tasks during lessons, needs to have skills to prepare methodological tools, ability to develop their social skills and help looking after themselves. Almost all respondents said that the main role of the assistant - is being a helper. Both assistants and teachers said that in order to satisfy the needs of the quality of such pupils, assistant needs special additional education and background in psychology. Teacher assistants experiences lack of teamwork skills and knowledge, they feel undervalued and... [to full text]

The problem in this thesis was originally motivated by problems presented with documents of Early England Data Set (DEEDS). The central problem with these medieval documents is the lack of methods to assign accurate dates to those documents which bear no date. With the problems of the DEEDS documents in mind, we present two methods to impute missing features of texts. In the first method, we suggest a new class of metrics for measuring distances between texts. We then show how to combine the distances between the texts using statistical smoothing. This method can be adapted to settings where the features of the texts are ordered or unordered categoricals (as in the case of, for example, authorship assignment problems). In the second method, we estimate the probability of occurrences of words in texts using nonparametric regression techniques of local polynomial fitting with kernel weight to generalized linear models. We combine the estimated probability of occurrences of words of a text to estimate the probability of occurrence of a text as a function of its feature -- the feature in this case being the date in which the text is written. The application and results of our methods to the DEEDS documents are presented.

'The Artist Will Be Present' explores objects as traces that stem from performed actions, and my body in performance. Part-sculptural objects, video and sound act as performance documents that expand on notions of the ‘live’ encounter. Interest lies in how we get to objects: process in variance to product or closure. And the question of how the body/s of the audience becomes participatory is at the forefront of these operations. From this viewpoint the exegesis aims to broaden existing scholarship on performativity, liveness and the part-sculptural object, exploring the manners in which various cultural practices act to animate objects. I reconsider the Euro-American genealogies of performance/body art (Bruce Nauman, Lygia Clark, Ann Hamilton et al.) in relationship to contemporary art practices in Australia and New Zealand (Alicia Frankvich, Carolyn Eskdale et al.) through the lens of late 19th-and early 20th-century writing on sympathetic magical action. A legacy of cultural anthropology dealing with magic (that was privileged in establishing grounding aspects of structural linguistics) circulates around the British anthropologist Stanley J. Tambiah whose thinking on persuasive analogy in ritual performance draws a crucial link between J. L. Austin’s performative utterance and James George Frazer’s notion of sympathetic magic. From such a perspective the operations of sympathetic mimesis—involving ambivalent similitude and contagion—are discussed in terms of performative and persuasive illocutionary force. This offers another model for articulating an authentic performative document as an encounter with the ‘live.’ A phenomenological method of enquiry, including Maurice Merleau-Ponty’s concept of the chiasm,—along with notions of mimetic incongruence—crucially tease out relationships between the live and the performance document and aim at resisting subject/object dichotomies whereby concepts of embodiment and indeterminate play between artist, objects and audiences are activated. Applied to contemporary debates on performance and ‘objects out of action,’ part objects and images are transformed as partial ‘subjects’: metonymically part of larger wholes as trace (substitution) and contagious contact (liveness). What is lacking in the operations of sympathetic mimesis is precisely what ‘draws out’ the body/s of the audience as they desire closure in object and duration. As these questions turn on the body of the artist/self and the audience/participant in performative installation practice, I offer an analysis of bodies in ritual exchange (donor/donee); subjects and objects as transformers: relations of force over form—liminal, reversible and redolent of lack—that emphasise encounter in difference to recognition. This is to speak of, in the words of Lygia Clark: “Tactile shocks to liberate the body.”

O presente estudo tem como tema a digitalização de acervos arquivísticos. O ambiente digital, largamente utilizado para a criação de novos documentos, pode servir também aos acervos em suporte papel, considerando que a migração para o meio digital seja capaz de contribuir em aspectos como a preservação, a difusão e o acesso aos documentos. Nesse sentido, o problema apresentado é: como tratar os acervos documentais em suporte papel custodiados pela Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul? Objetivando investigar uma forma de preservação e difusão dos documentos do Arquivo Central, realizou-se uma pesquisa exploratória em duas instituições dedicadas ao tratamento de acervos através da digitalização. Por meio da observação sistemática e com a aplicação de entrevistas semi-estruturadas, foi possível estabelecer um contato mais direto com os ambientes investigados. O referencial teórico aborda temas como memória, patrimônio e cibercultura, a partir de suas relações com os documentos arquivísticos, fundamentando-se em autores como Halbwachs, Dodebei e Lévy. Assim, a memória é apresentada com base em sua ligação com os documentos, desenvolvendo então a noção de memória documental. O conceito de patrimônio é apresentado a partir da perspectiva dos documentos serem reconhecidos como patrimônio cultural da Universidade, através do trabalho de avaliação documental. O ciberespaço, por sua vez, é abordado como um espaço para difusão e preservação digital da memória documental. Sendo esta uma pesquisa qualitativa de natureza aplicada, o produto final apresentado é um projeto para a implantação de um laboratório de digitalização no Arquivo Central da UFRGS. Como resultado, a conjectura de que os acervos documentais da UFRGS poderão se valer do Laboratório de Digitalização como uma nova perspectiva para preservação e difusão de seus conteúdos. / The present study has as a theme the scanning of documents holdings. The digital environment, largely use for the creation of new documents, could be use also to the holdings on paper support, considering that the migration for the digital media be able to contribute on aspects as preservation, diffusion and access to the documents. Such conjuncture could be use as well for the documents collections on paper support, considering that the migration for the digital environment be capable to contribute on aspects such as preservation, the diffusion and the access to documents. In this sense, the problem presented is how to treat the documental collections on paper support guard by the Federal University of Rio Grande do Sul? Aiming investigate the form of preservation of Central Archive’s documents, has been done a exploratory research on two institutions dedicated to the treatment of the documents collections through the scanning or the papers. Trough the systematic observation and with the application of semi-structured interviews, was possible to make a direct contact with the object of this study. The theoretical reference approach theme such as memory, patrimony and cyber culture, from the relation with these documents, has been based on authors like Halbwaches, Dodebei and Lévy. Thus, memory is showed with base on its connection with the documents, developing then the notion of documental memory. The concept of patrimony is presented from the perspective of the documents to be acknowledge as University’s heritage patrimony, through the work of documental evaluation. The cyberspace, for its turn, is approach as a qualitative research of apply nature, the final product is showed as a project for the implantation of a scanning laboratory on the UFRGS’ Central Archive. As result, the conjuncture of that documental collection could use of the scanning laboratory as a new perspective for preservation and diff

The aim of the Diploma Thesis is to present a German teacher profile and upcoming teacher profile in the Czech Republic, to specify basic elements of German language teacher and to analyze current profiles of College of Education graduates ? German language specializations, which are introduced by College of Education Departments of German language at universities in the Czech Republic. The theoretical part deals with current situation in Czech educational system, curriculum documents and competence issues. In reference to a presentation of standard´s proposal of the Czech Republic and standard´s proposal of Germany in the practical part, the German educational system state is also described. With regard to a conception of standard, the Thesis also deals with competence issues. The profiles of College of Education graduates are compared in the practical part, from several departments with each other and also with a German standard. Based on the PAneCZ project realized by international cooperation of Passau University and University of South Bohemia in České Budějovice, which the author of this Diploma Thesis took part in, a questionnaire analysis is made public in the practical part. This questionnaire was focused on imaginations and opinions of secondary schools´students about teaching profession. The analysis sums up what competences a primary school teacher should hold.
