Transitioning Across Systems: Head Start and Elementary School Coordination Efforts to Enhance Low-Income Children's Academic and Social Success in KindergartenCook, Kyle DeMeo January 2017 (has links)
Thesis advisor: Rebekah L. Coley / Children moving from early education programs into elementary schools face a critical transition, making it important for both systems to coordinate to better serve our youngest children. Yet, there is limited research on coordination around the transition to school. The objectives of this dissertation were to: 1) describe the coordination efforts used by Head Start programs to smooth children’s transitions to kindergarten, 2) examine the association between coordination and children’s outcomes in kindergarten, 3) test whether there is an interaction between Head Start coordination efforts and elementary school-based transition practices, 4) test interactions between coordination and child/family characteristics, and 5) understand the benefits and challenges to coordinating across systems. This study included two phases. Phase I examined coordination efforts between Head Start programs and elementary schools in a nationally representative sample of Head Start children (N=2,019). Findings suggest that Head Start programs are engaging in a variety of activities to coordinate with elementary schools. Results of regression analyses found that coordination was positively related to children’s language and mathematics skills in kindergarten for children enrolled in elementary schools engaging in limited activities to support the transition to school. Phase II involved interviews with sixteen Head Start directors. Results showed multiple ways they coordinate with elementary schools to share information about individual children and general program practices, as well as the ways they serve as a bridge between families and elementary schools. Findings suggest that coordination may benefit children through improved practices by Head Start and elementary schools, as well as increases in parental readiness and involvement.Overall this study shows that Head Start programs are engaging in multiple activities to coordinate with elementary schools. Although direct relationships between coordination practices and child outcomes were limited, interviews with Head Start directors pointed to indirect pathways by which coordination efforts may benefit children. These findings suggest the importance of coordination practices, and stress the need for additional research to explore these pathways. / Thesis (PhD) — Boston College, 2017. / Submitted to: Boston College.

O lugar do erro na educação infantil: a construção do conhecimento das professorasLigia Maria Motta Lima Leão de Aquino 05 January 2002 (has links)
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / A pesquisa qualitativa aqui apresentada focaliza o processo de elaboração do conhecimento de professoras de Educação Infantil, enfatizando o saber fazer e saber explicar porque faz. Identifica o erro como uma questão relevante para compreender o saber docente, uma vez que se trata de um conceito chave na teoria construtivista, indicada como referencial de muitas propostas pedagógicas da Educação Infantil. A análise das concepções das professoras e dos processos de elaboração de saberes práticos se fez com base no campo de pesquisa sobre saber docente. Para discussão e análise do que é
conhecimento e erro, assim como de que forma a educação tem participado do processo de
aquisição de conhecimento, a Educação em Ciências, numa perspectiva construtivista, é
reconhecida como campo de estudo privilegiado. A compreensão do lugar do erro na construção do conhecimento é fundamentada nos estudos piagetianos e ampliada com as discussões de Vygotsky sobre a formação dos conceitos. Na análise da Educação Infantil são identificados diferentes modelos educacionais presentes nas propostas formais como as Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais para a Educação Infantil e o Referencial Curricular Nacional para a Educação Infantil -, e também nas práticas cotidianas dos fazeres docentes. Os dados empíricos da pesquisa resultaram de material coletado através de questionário e registro em Diário de Bordo e Vídeo-Gravação de dez encontros com professores/as
durante um Curso de Extensão (Ciência e Educação Infantil, em 1999), organizado em forma de oficinas para que os participantes pudessem planejar e refletir sobre a sua própria prática docente junto às crianças. A relevância da presente pesquisa está no fato de fomentar o início do debate que aproxima a Educação Infantil a dois campos de pesquisa que têm muito a contribuir: a Educação em Ciências e Saber Docente. Por fim, o estudo
afirma a importância de formulação de propostas de formação continuada que proporcionem espaços para reflexão sobre a própria prática. / The qualitative study here reported focus on the process of knowledge development of Early Education teachers, emphasizing both dimensions of knowing-how-to-do and explaining-why. The study identifies the issue of error as relevant to understand teachersknowledge, since it is a crucial notion of constructivist approaches,which are often taken as theoretical basis of Early Education proposals. The analysis of teachers views and of the processes of developing practical knowledge was carried out on the basis of research on teachers knowledge.Constructivist science education was taken as a main reference to
discuss and analyse conceptions of knowledge and error, as well as the function of education in knowledge acquisition. The studies of Piaget, broadened by those of Vygotsky, helped to understand the role of errors in knowledge building. Analysis of Early Education formal curricular proposals (DCNEI, RCNEI), as well as teaching practices, point to different educational models. Empirical data was obtained through a questionnaire and by observation (recorded by video and hand-written notes) of a 10 sessions in-service course where early Education teachers were expected to plan and reflect on their teaching practices with young children. The study is especially relevant for relating early Education to two other research areas, namely, science education and teachers knowledge. Finally, the study confirms that continuing education proposals should aim at providing conditions for reflecting on ones own teaching practices.

FOSTERING IMAGINATIVE EXPRESSION IN ELEMENTARY ART STUDENTS: A DESCRIPTIVE STUDY OF TEACHER STRATEGIESBargo, Julia Robinson 01 January 2006 (has links)
The students in my elementary art classes did not seem to be creating for themselves. They seemed to have the understanding there was only one correct answer in art class, and the art teacher knew what that answer was. By way of research I have found ways to create an atmosphere in my art room that promotes imagination and self expression in children, thus fostering a free and creative reaction from my students. Through understanding how and why one uses their imagination, an art teacher can enhance a student's ability to build and use his or her knowledge base. I believe an art teacher can help students build artistic confidence by using strategies such as introducing new art materials to children in a play atmosphere, planning lessons that are open-ended, giving choices for materials used, and guiding students using mental imagery.
