Thesis (PhD)--Stellenbosch University, 2014. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to investigate and describe the current state of Afrikaans FAL teaching in selected Gr 4 – 6 classes in Western Cape urban schools. This was done by presenting an overview of the literature relevant to FAL teaching and FAL curricula as well as the results from questionnaires and semi-structured interviews with Gr 4 – 6 teachers. This study does not offer a quick-fix solution to the problems in the Afrikaans FAL classrooms, but the researcher believes that the findings will highlight the daily challenges Afrikaans FAL teachers have to face and that all role players will become actively involved in improving the state of Afrikaans FAL teaching in the Western Cape. The relevance of this study lies in the national drive towards the promotion of multilingualism among the general population and especially in education. Feedback from student teachers returning from practice teaching indicated that not enough time is allocated by schools for the instruction of Afrikaans FAL; greatly differing methodologies as well as teaching and learning materials are being used in Afrikaans FAL classes; and learner and teacher Afrikaans proficiency varies from class to class. A theoretical framework for language teaching and learning, a literature study pertaining to first additional language teaching nationally and internationally, and an analysis of South African FAL curricula support the research. Constructivism, social constructivism and teacher knowledge were identified as the underpinning theories for language teaching and learning. The literature study provides an overview of all the major methodologies relevant to FAL teaching and the researcher concluded that there is no single method or approach that will ensure effective FAL teaching, but that teachers should implement an eclectic approach to achieve the best results. This study used a mixed methods approach to generate empirical data; 125 questionnaires, completed by Grade 4 – 6 Afrikaans FAL teachers, provided the quantitative data. For the qualitative strand of the study, semi-structured interviews were conducted with 17 Afrikaans FAL teachers. The data of these interviews were used as triangulation, to confirm or disconfirm and elaborate on the results of the questionnaires. One of the major factors impacting negatively on the teaching and learning of Afrikaans FAL is the negative attitude towards Afrikaans among many learners and their parents. Teachers are not equipped with teaching strategies and techniques to manage these negative attitudes. The results show that many teachers still follow a teacher-centred approach to teaching, which is an indication that learners are not given enough opportunities to develop their communicative competence through interaction with others. Another factor affecting Afrikaans FAL teaching negatively is that not all schools implement the prescriptions of the various language policies and curricula as they should. The study also investigated the use of appropriate and relevant learning and teaching support materials (LTSM) in the FAL classroom. The results showed that most teachers still mainly use the textbook as teaching resource. There is a dire need for appropriate Afrikaans LTSM for FAL. The expectation is that, in the age of technology we find ourselves in today, learners’ interest will be stimulated through the use of technological teaching aids. Teachers should therefore have access to, and use, a variety of media and technological teaching aids and be able to integrate them effectively into their language teaching. The findings of the study revealed teachers are caught up in traditional language teaching methods and strategies which do not contribute to the enhancement of learners’ proficiency in the target language. The study also closely examined the different types of knowledge that a language teacher should have. The results showed that the teachers’ knowledge of the curriculum, language policies, language teaching and learning theories as well as methodologies is extremely limited. Therefore a new method or approach is needed, which is why this study recommends that the HEIs and the WCED ensure that initial teacher training programmes and in-service training workshops are upgraded and adapted in order to prepare the teachers adequately to implement the prescribed curriculum using appropriate methodologies and strategies. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die doel van hierdie studie was om die huidige stand van Afrikaans Eerste Addisionele Taal (EAT) onderrig in gekose Gr 4 – 6 klasse in Wes-Kaapse stedelike skole te ondersoek en beskryf. Dit is gedoen by wyse van die aanbieding van ’n oorsig van die betrokke literatuur oor EAT-onderrig en EAT-kurrikula, asook die resultate van vraelyste en semigestruktureerde onderhoude met Gr 4 – 6-onderwysers. Hierdie studie bied nie ’n kitsoplossing vir die probleme in die Afrikaans EAT klaskamers nie, maar die navorser glo dat die bevindinge die uitdagings wat Afrikaans EAT-onderwysers daagliks trotseer, sal beklemtoon en dat alle rolspelers aktief betrokke sal raak om die stand van Afrikaans EAT onderrig in die Wes-Kaap te verbeter. Die toepaslikheid van hierdie studie is gesetel in die nasionale klem op die bevordering van meertaligheid onder die algemene pupliek en veral in die onderwys. Studente terugvoer na die praktiese onderwys dui daarop dat nie genoeg tyd aan die onderrig van Afrkaans EAT in skole bewillig word nie en dat daar ‘n groot verskeidenheid onderrigmetodes en onderrig- en leerhulpmiddels in Afrikaans EAT-klasse aangewend word. Leerders en onderwysers se vaardigheid in Afrikaans wissel ook van klas tot klas. Die navorsing is ondersteun deur ‘n teoretiese raamwerk van taalonderrig en –leer, ‘n literatuurstudie van eerste addisionele taalonderrig, nasionaal sowel as internasionaal, asook ‘n analise van Suid-Afrikaanse EAT-kurrikula. Konstruktivisme. sosio-konstruktivisme en onderwyser kennis is geïdentifiseer as die teoretiese begronding vir taalonderrig en –leer. Die literatuurstudie gee ‘n oorsig van al die belangrike en relevante EAT-metodieke. Die navorser het tot die gevolgtrekking gekom dat nie een enkele metode of benadering effektiewe EAT-onderrig kan verseker nie, maar dat onderwysers ‘n eklektiese benadering behoort te volg om die beste resultate te verseker. Hierdie studie het ‘n gemengde navorsingsbenadering gevolg ten einde empiriese data te genereer. Die kwantatiewe data is ingesamel by wyse van talle vraelyste wat deur Gr 4 – 6 Afrikaans EAT-onderwysers voltooi is. Semi-gestruktureerde onderhoude is met 17 Afrikaans EAT-onderwysers gevoer ten einde die kwalitatiewe data in te samel. Die data van hierdie onderhoude is gebruik as tri-angulasie om die resultate van die vraelyste te bevestig of te weerspreek. Een van die belangrikste faktore wat die onderrig en leer van Afrikaans EAT negatief beïnvloed, is baie leerders en ouers se negatiewe houding teenoor Afrikaans. Onderwysers is nie toegerus met die nodige onderrigstrategieë en –tegnieke om hierdie negatiewe houdings aan te spreek nie. Die resultate wys daarop dat baie onderwysers steeds ’n onderwyser-gerigte benadering volg wat daartoe lei dat die leerders nie genoegsame geleentheide kry om hulle kommunikatiewe vaardighede by wyse van interaksie met ander te ontwikkel nie. ‘n Ander faktor wat Afrikaans EAT-onderrig negatief beïnvloed, is die feit dat nie alle skole die voorskrifte van die verskillende taalbeleide en kurrikula implementeer soos van hulle verwag word nie. Hierdie studie het ook die gebruik van gepaste en relevante onderrig- en leerondersteuningsmateriaal in die EAT-klaskamer ondersoek. Die resultate het daarop gedui dat die meeste onderwysers nog steeds die handboek as belangrikste onderrighulpmiddel gebruik. Daar bestaan ‘n geweldige behoefte na gepaste Afrikaanse onderrig- en leermateriaal vir EAT. In die tegnologiese era waarin ons ons bevind, bestaan die verwagting dat leerders se belangstelling gestimuleer sal word deur die gebruik van tegnologiese onderrigmateriaal. Onderwysers behoort dus toegang te hê tot en ‘n wye verskeidenheid media en tegnologiese onderrigmateriaal te kan gebruik en in staat wees om dit suksesvol te integreer in hulle taalonderrig. Die bevindinge van hierdie studie het gewys dat onderwysers vasgevang is in tradisionele taalonderrigmetodes en –strategieë wat nie bydra tot die ontwikkeling van die leerders se vaardigheid in die teikentaal nie. Die verskillende soorte kennis waaroor ‘n taalonderwyser behoort te beskik is ook onder die vergrootglas geplaas. Die resultate het getoon dat die onderwysers se kennis van die kurrikulum, taalbeleid, taalonderrig en –leerteorieë en metodieke uiters beperk is. Daar is dus ‘n behoefte aan ‘n nuwe metode of benadering en daarom beveel hierdie studie aan dat onderwyseropleidingsprogramme en indiensopleidingswerkswinkels opgegradeer en aangepas word deur die Hoëronderwysinstellings en die WKOD om te verseker dat onderwysers voldoende voorberei word om gepaste metodieke en strategieë toe te pas in die implementering van die voorgeskrewe kurrikula.

Meantime, there are conflicting aspects and HEI are to prepare the graduate with skills required. Having that said, this research objective to identify the perception of teachers of the Government Accounting about the teaching conditions and the need in Courses of Accounting in the Baixada Santista region. Was conducted exploratory and qualitative research; data collection techniques were interview and document analysis. Were taken sample, 7 teachers who teach the discipline in 7 courses in accounting sciences in HEI in the region in 2015. It requested the teaching plans to 7 teachers. The results showed that 42.85% are accountants, 42.85% has Masters, 71.42% have up to 6 years of experience. In teaching strategies and evaluation, expositive classes and exercises were the most mentioned. All use tests, practical exercises and assignments. Regarding workload, 71.42% have reported failure. As for literature, lack autonomy of teachers, most use outdated plans. As for NBCT16, 57.14% say they consider the program. About the last question, it was sought to go deeper concerning what??s taught, 100% do not address differences between MCASP and IPSAS, 42,85% use the current subsystems and property aspects. It got to the conclusion and, it??s recommended, changing plans after 6 months, sources?? inclusion teacher autonomy in preparing the plan, expansion of the workload and expansion of content regarding on MCASP / IFAC / NBCT16. Though there??s an affirmation from all teachers that applied content so far meets the demands of the contests for Accountant, the results demonstrate that there are need to expand the expertise to students. / Devido a Contabilidade Governamental Brasileira convergir ??s IPSAS, criaram-se diversas normas, impactando Demonstrativos e Subsistemas.

Este estudo trata das temáticas indígenas em espaços de formação docente a partir de uma perspectiva intercultural nos currículos de formação de professores na área da educação física. Tem por objetivo analisar como as temáticas indígenas são posicionadas no currículo de formação docente da Licenciatura em Educação Física da Universidade Pedagógica Nacional – UPN (Bogotá – Colômbia), bem como as condições de produção discursiva que possibilitaram o aparecimento destas temáticas neste programa de formação. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida partindo de um delineamento descritivo com uma abordagem teórico-metodológico qualitativa realizada em seis momentos: o primeiro constituído por uma descrição e contextualização do Sistema Nacional de Educação e da constituição histórica da formação docente na Colômbia. O segundo, uma descrição histórica do processo de consolidação da educação física no ensino superior colombiano, seguido de um mapeamento dos programas de formação docente na área ou afins ofertados atualmente no país, enfatizando específicamente no Projeto Curricular da Licenciatura em Educação Física (PCLEF) da UPN. O terceiro, um diálogo conceitual entre a teoria pós-colonial, a interculturalidade e a descolonialidade em relação com o campo das práticas corporais indígenas O quarto momento, realiza um mapeamento da produção acadêmica relacionada às práticas corporais indígenas tanto na Colômbia quanto no Brasil para, no quinto momento, abordar os fundamentos e percursos metodológicos desde a análise do discurso (AD), partindo de um conjunto diverso de arquivos que constituem as materialidades empíricas desta investigação. Na parte das análises e discussões resultantes do processo interpretativo argumento que as temáticas indígenas no PCLEF da UPN são posicionadas como socialmente relevantes dentro da concepção humanista que sustentou a reformulação do programa, mas no processo de concretização dos planos das disciplinas ainda é posicionado como um tema academicamente exótico. Nas considerações finais, destaco o quão importante é para o processo de formação dos estudantes a abordagem e o desenvolvimento das temáticas indígenas no programa de licenciatura da FEF da UPN, estruturada sobre uma concepção humanista, o que permitiria assimilar outras formas de conhecimentos e práticas culturais até o momento pouco tratadas pelo universo logicamente estabelecido, no qual se fundamenta a disciplina acadêmica e que fazem parte do campo de atuação profissional do licenciado no país. / This research approaches indigenous topics in teacher training environments. The objective of this research is to analyze how indigenous topics are introduced into the curricula of the teacher training environments at the Universidad Pedagógica Nacional in Bogotá. The objective of this research is to analyze the way indigenous topics get positions in the teacher training curricula at the Physical Education Faculty of the Colombian Pedagogical University and in the same way the discursive condition productions appearance. The research was developed setting off from a descriptive outlining with a qualitative methodological - theoretical approach developed in six stages: the first one is constituted by the description and the environment of the National Education System and the contextualization of the Educational System and Teacher Training in Colombia. The second one is a historic description of the process of consolidation of the Physical Education in Colombia's Higher Education, followed by the mapping in the programs by Teacher Training in the field of physed and related programs. The third one is a conceptual dialogue among the postcolonial theory, the intercultural chain, and decolonization and their relationship with the study of indigenous bodily practice In the fourth stage there is an increase in the academic output related to indigenous bodily practice in Colombia and Brazil, and the fifth stage approaches the fundamentals and methodological ways to discourse analysis setting off from a diverse number of archives that constitutes empirical knowledge. In the section of analysis and discussions resulting from the interpretative process of indigenous themes in the PCLEF at the UPN are socially important positioned within the humanistic concept that supported the remake of the programs, but in the process of making it true these theories are seen as something exotic. It is important for the teachers to be to have into account the indigenous topics structured in a humanistic point of view because these topics are important for the graduate professional. / Este estudio aborda las temáticas indígenas en espacios de formación docente a partir de una perspectiva intercultural en los currículos de formación de profesores en el área de la educación física.

El tercero, un diálogo conceptual entre la teoría poscolonial, la interculturalidad y la decolonialidad y su relación con el campo de estudio de las prácticas corporales indígenas. En el cuarto momento, se realiza un levantamiento de la producción académica relacionada con las prácticas corporales indígenas tanto en Colombia como en Brasil, para en el quinto momento, abordar los fundamentos y caminos metodológicos desde el análisis de discurso (AD) partiendo de un conjunto diverso de archivos que constituyen las materialidades empíricas En la parte de los análisis y discusiones resultantes del proceso interpretativo argumento que las temáticas indígenas en el PCLEF de la UPN son posicionadas como socialmente relevantes dentro de la concepción humanista que sustentó la reformulación del programa, pero en el proceso de concretización en la planeación de las disciplinas todavía estas temáticas son posicionadas como un tema académicamente exótico. En las consideraciónes finales destaco cuan importante es para el proceso de formación de los estudiantes el abordaje y desarrollo de las temáticas indígenas en el programa de la licenciatura de la FEF de la UPN estructurada sobre una concepción humanista, lo que permitiria entender otras formas de conocimiento y practicas culturales hasta el momento poco tratadas en el universo logicamente establecido en que se fundamenta la disciplina académica y que hacen parte del campo de acción profesional del licenciado en el país.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Saray Marques.pdf: 1769461 bytes, checksum: 17ede852a58edbe767d733efe12a8006 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2018-02-26 / Conselho Nacional de Pesquisa e Desenvolvimento Científico e Tecnológico - CNPq / This research examines the proposal, curricular structure and functioning of the Integral Education Program (IEP), formulated by the State Education-SP Secretariat, proposed and implemented in the administration of Governor Geraldo Alckmin (2011-2017), so as to to verify to what extent it promotes the integral formation of the student. In addition to the IEP guiding documents and legislation related to full-time education in Brazil, a theoretical reference was sought in the studies conducted by Teixeira (2000, 2004, 2007), Cavaliere (2006, 2010), Chizzotti and Ponce (2013), Dubet (2008), Delors (1996), Gadotti (2009), Gimeno Sacristán (1998, 2000), Guará (2006), Libaneo (2014), Paro (2009), Ponce (2014), Ponce e Rosa and Torres Santomé (2013b). The study was developed as a qualitative research and field research was carried out through interviews with managers and teachers, as well as the application of a questionnaire to 1st, 2nd and 12th grade students, and 3rd years of high school. The analysis of the results considered: the implementation of the Program, the curricular organization and the 360º evaluation, in order to establish a possible relationship between the one proposed by the IEP and its practice. It was observed in this study that, although it is possible to consider that extended school time allows the student to expand opportunities, on the other hand, the preparation of physical spaces, the availability of material and financial resources for the execution of the Program and the participation of school community in its planning and execution still do not correspond to what is proposed in the IEP / A presente pesquisa examina a proposta, a estrutura curricular e o funcionamento do Programa Ensino Integral (PEI), formulado pela Secretaria Estadual Educação-SP, proposto e implementado na gestão do Governador Geraldo Alckmin (2011-2017), de modo a verificar em que medida promove a formação integral do estudante. Além dos documentos norteadores do PEI e da legislação pertinente à educação em tempo integral no Brasil, buscou-se referencial teórico nos estudos realizados por Teixeira (2000, 2004, 2007), Cavaliere (2006, 2010), Chizzotti e Ponce (2013), Dubet (2008), Delors (1996), Gadotti (2009), Gimeno Sacristán (1998, 2000), Guará (2006), Libâneo (2014), Paro (2009), Ponce (2014), Ponce e Rosa (2014) e Torres Santomé (2013b). O estudo se desenvolveu como pesquisa qualitativa e a investigação de campo foi feita por meio da realização de entrevistas com gestores e professores, bem como da aplicação de questionário a estudantes do 1º., 2º. e 3º. anos do Ensino Médio. A análise dos resultados considerou: a implantação do Programa, a organização curricular e a avaliação 360º, de maneira a estabelecer possível relação entre o proposto pelo PEI e sua prática. Constatou-se neste estudo que, embora se possa considerar que o tempo escolar estendido possibilite a ampliação de oportunidades ao estudante, por outro lado, a preparação dos espaços físicos, a disponibilização de recursos materiais e financeiros para a execução do Programa e a participação da comunidade escolar em seu planejamento e execução ainda não correspondem ao que se encontra proposto no PEI
