Assim, tivemos como objetivo apontar os desafios e as possibilidades/potencialidades de um processo de construção metodológica para Programas de Educação Ambiental no licenciamento, a partir de um relato de experiência. As premissas teórico-metodológicas que embasaram a presente pesquisa pautam-se na perspectiva crítica, emancipatória de Educação Ambiental, atrelada ao seu desenvolvimento metodológico de forma participativa em Projetos e Programas executados no decorrer de um licenciamento ambiental. Ao utilizar como estratégia metodológica a pesquisa qualitativa do tipo etnográfica, ou seja, uma adaptação da etnografia quando o foco refere-se aos estudos dos processos educativos, pudemos observar, narrar e analisar alguns elementos os quais julgamos pertinentes na constituição da proposta metodológica que se pretende construir. Dentre os principais aspectos levantados, podemos apontar o tempo como principal desafio na implementação de um PEA. Apesar disso, inúmeras foram as possibilidades propiciadas como aprender, refletir, questionar, participar, conhecer a própria realidade, assim como descobrir potencialidades locais a relação que os sujeitos estabelecem com o lugar onde vivem e as lideranças locais organizadas e relacionadas a grupos religiosos. Tais aspectos se configuram como um forte aliado para compreender os motivos que levaram as pessoas a darem prosseguimento, ou não, ao movimento empreendido pelo PEA e comprovar em que medida as estratégias participativas são condizentes com a realidade dos sujeitos prioritários envolvidos e os objetivos de proposta emancipatória e crítica de Educação Ambiental implementada no decorrer de um licenciamento. / Immersed in a research project that provided education in environmental education processes, this research sought to understand how these educational activities have approached the subjects involved. So we had to point out the challenges and opportunities / potential of a methodological process of construction for Environmental Education Programs in licensing from an experience report. The theoretical and methodological premises that supported this research are guided in a critical perspective. Also, emancipatory Environmental Education is linked to its methodological development in a participatory manner in Projects and Programs implemented over an environmental license. By using the methodological strategy of ethnographic qualitative research style, it means an adaptation of ethnography when the focus refers to studies of educational processes. It was possible to observe and analyze some elements which is believed to be methodological relevant to this proposal. Among the main aspects pointed, it was identified at the time as the main challenge in implementing the EEP. However, many possibilities such as learning, reflecting, questioning, participating, and meeting reality itself were experienced. And even discovering local potential as the relationship that subjects have with the place where they live and organized local leaderships and related to religious groups. Such aspects are configured as a strong ally to understand the reasons which led people to continue or not the movement undertaken by the EEP. And also to demonstrate the extent to which a participatory approach is consistent with the reality of the people involved and the goals of emancipatory proposal and criticism of Environmental Education in implementing an EEP in licensing.

Dentre essas oportunidades não obrigatórias, existe, no Brasil, o Programa de Educação Tutorial (PET), vinculado à Secretaria de Educação Superior (SESu) do Ministério da Educação (MEC) e foco desta investigação. Criado em 1979, o PET é constituído por grupos de estudantes da graduação, acompanhados por um professor tutor, que desenvolvem projetos que contemplam a tríade pesquisa, ensino e extensão indissociavelmente. Esta pesquisa teve como objetivos identificar e analisar os motivos de decisão de ingresso do estudante no PET; bem como as mudanças positivas e negativas percebidas pelos estudantes decorrentes de sua participação no PET, referente às dimensões acadêmica, profissional, interpessoal e pessoal. Para isso, foi desenvolvida uma pesquisa de natureza qualitativa do tipo descritiva com coleta via web, com 30 estudantes concluintes participantes do PET, na instituição brasileira de ensino superior com maior número de grupos. Os dados foram tratados por meio da análise de conteúdo, permitindo observar que 76,6% dos participantes escolheram o PET como primeira opção dentre as outras atividades oferecidas pela Instituição de Ensino Superior. Os motivos de escolha pelo Programa foram agrupados em nove categorias: Oportunidade de desenvolvimento pessoal e interpessoal; Ampliação da formação acadêmica e profissional; Atividades desenvolvidas pelo grupo; Extensão; Apoio financeiro; Integração entre ensino, pesquisa e extensão; Características do grupo; Interesse pessoal ou motivado por terceiros; e Integração ao ensino superior. Ainda, ao analisar as mudanças apontadas pelos estudantes, foi possível perceber que os alunos intensificaram os pontos positivos em relação aos negativos, porém alguns aspectos tratados como positivos também apareceram como negativos. As mudanças relatadas foram organizadas de acordo com os domínios Acadêmico, Profissional, Interpessoal e Pessoal, sendo que para as positivas foram criadas sete, cinco, duas e quatro categorias, respectivamente. Para as negativas, criaram-se duas, uma, quatro e uma nos mesmos domínios, respectivamente. Dentro das mudanças positivas, a única categoria que apareceu nos quatro domínios foi desenvolvimento de Habilidades, capacidades e competências; a categoria Aquisição de conhecimentos foi encontrada em três domínios enquanto que a Composição de rede de contatos profissionais em dois. Dentre as mudanças negativas não houve repetição de categorias. Assim, analisando a necessidade de compreender o estudante do ensino superior durante seu processo de vivências e mudanças, este estudo possibilitou a percepção da importância do PET neste processo de desenvolvimento, além de contribuir para a análise qualitativa do próprio Programa. / Abstract: The educational experience involves not only mandatory activities required to complete a given course, as well as non-compulsory activities, which, provided by the institution, broaden the academic experience. Among these opportunities which are not mandatory, there is in Brazil, the so-called Programa de Educação Tutorial - PET (Tutorial Education Program), linked to the SESu (Department of Higher Education of the Ministry of Education - MEC) and focus of this investigation. Created in 1979, PET is made up of groups of graduate students, accompanied by a tutor, which develop projects that address the triad of research, teaching and extension inextricably. This research aims to identify and analyze the reasons for the student's decision to join PET, as well as the positive and negative changes perceived by the students due to their participation in the PET, referring to the academic, professional, interpersonal and personal dimensions. For this, a qualitative research of the descriptive type has been developed, with data collection via web, with 30 graduating students, participants of PET in the Brazilian institution of higher education which has the largest number of groups. The data were processed through content analysis, allowing the observation that 76.6% of participants chose PET as the first option among other activities offered by Institution of Higher Education. The reasons for choosing the program were grouped into nine categories: Opportunity for personal and interpersonal development; Expansion of academic and professional education; Activities developed by the group; Extension; Financial support; Integration of teaching, research and extension; Characteristics of the group; Personal interest or motivated by others, and Integration to higher education. Also, by analyzing the changes noted by the students, it was revealed that students intensified their strengths in relation to negative points, but some aspects treated as positive were also considered as being negative. The changes reported were organized according to Academic, Professional, Personal and Interpersonal domains, and for the positive changes seven, five, two and four categories, respectively, were created. For the negative ones, two, one, four and one categories were created in the same domains, respectively. Among the positive changes, the only category that appeared in the four areas was the development of Abilities, skills and competences; the category Knowledge Acquisition was found in three domains while the Composition of networking professionals was found in two of them. Among the negative changes there was no repetition of categories. Thus, analyzing the need to understand students during their higher education experiences and process changes, this study enabled the perception of the importance of PET in this development process, besides the contribution to the qualitative analysis of the program itself. / Mestrado / Psicologia Educacional / Mestre em Educação

Buscou estudar a intertextualidade da cultura contemporânea nas práticas pedagógicas dos docentes em aulas de História nos últimos anos do Ensino Fundamental; identificar como os professores compreendem a sedução exercida pelos artefatos da cultura contemporânea nos jovens em suas aulas e como agem em relação a eles; identificar a presença da cultura contemporânea nas aulas de História nos últimos anos do Ensino Fundamental; caracterizar o perfil socioeconômico e cultural do grupo de docentes pesquisados e contribuir para outras formas de pensar o ensino de História na escola atualmente. Utilizou, como instrumentos para coleta de dados, observações diretas das aulas e um questionário para levantamento do perfil econômico e sociocultural dos professores, com perguntas abertas, fechadas e semiabertas. O tratamento dos dados fez uso de análises de conteúdo e várias estratégias estatísticas. Os questionários revelaram inúmeras possibilidades para que a prática pedagógica aliada à cultura acontecesse, mas isso não foi detectado nas observações da prática pedagógica. Constatou-se também que os professores recriam formas de fazer dentro de suas salas a partir das produções culturais da sociedade, mas tais produções nem sempre estão efetivamente disponíveis para os professores. Os grupos de professores pesquisados apresentaram perfis semelhantes nos dados relativos à formação acadêmica e profissional; ao tempo de atuação no magistério; ao local de nascimento; aos saberes que valorizam, como leitura, programas televisivos e acesso à cultura. / Abstract: This qualitative and quantitative research took place in 2010 and involved 46 volunteer teachers, from Humanities area of study and students from eighth and ninth grades of elementary education in two local public schools of Itatiba, San Paulo. This research sought to study the intertextuality of contemporary culture in the pedagogical practices of teachers in History lessons in the last years of elementary school; identify how teachers understand the seduction exercised by the artifacts of contemporary culture in young people in their classes and how they act towards them; identify the presence of contemporary culture in History lessons in the last years of elementary school; characterize the socioeconomic and cultural group of teachers surveyed and contribute to other ways of thinking about the teaching of History in schools nowadays. Direct observation of classes were done for data collection and a questionnaire to survey the economic and socio-cultural profile of teachers with open, semi-open and closed items. Various strategies and content statistics have been used for the data analysis. The questionnaires revealed numerous opportunities for teaching practice joining culture, although it was not detected in teaching practice observations. It was also found that teachers recreate ways to teach within their classrooms from the cultural productions of society, but not always such productions are actually available for teachers. The groups of teachers surveyed had similar data on profiles from academic and professional training, the time of work in the teaching profession, place of birth, also knowledge worthy as reading, television programs and access to culture. / Doutorado / Educação, Conhecimento, Linguagem e Arte / Doutora em Educação

Millions of students with disabilities in the United States have access to educational programming to assist and provide special education support services. In existence for mere decades, special education as it currently stands was founded on groundbreaking legislation and refining law in the form of the Individual with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). The most recent revision of this law in 2004 significantly extended parents' rights to be decision-makers in the educational planning process for children with disabilities. A litany of research into parent experiences of the IEP and special education process reveals that parents consistently report feelings of being marginalized in the decision-making process. A systematic literature review conducted by the author revealed that parents and family members of children with ASD report broadly similar themes of dissatisfaction with the special education process and communicating with staff. The current research proposal seeks to investigate the interaction experiences with Licensed Specialist in School Psychology (LSSP) personnel of parents and family members of elementary-aged children with ASD. LSSPs, recognized as possessing expertise on autism spectrum disorder amongst special education evaluation personnel, often conduct evaluations for students with ASD.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of the teacher education program in the Department of Elementary Education at Utah State University. The program has been in effect for only a few years and the department desired that an evaluation b e conducted to determine its present strengths and weaknesses. The procedure used to collect data for this study involved several instruments. Letters were sent to 150 universities in the United States to determine what they had done to evaluate their teacher education programs. Questionnaires were sent to 399 graduates from 1974, 1975, and 1976 to ask their opinions of the program. Questionnaires were also sent to 101 principals of these graduates asking them to evaluate the graduates as products of the program. Visits were made to a random sample of 20 graduates and principals. Recommendations for the program were requested of the graduates and principals on the questionnaires and during visits. The results of this study showed strengths in the program in the subject areas of language arts, math, and social studies. Weaknesses were found in the areas of art, music, physical education, reading, and science. In the teaching competencies major strengths were found in the areas of positive personality traits, capturing interest and attention, encouraging creative activity, collecting and using media and materials, and gaining trust and building student self-concept. Major weaknesses were found in the areas of helping students of varied ethnic backgrounds, correlating curriculum with that in the grades preceeding and following, making interest centers and learning stations, caring for health, safety, and muscle coordination, helping students to use inductive and deductive thinking, and helping students develop visual and auditory perception. It was also found that the principals feel differently about graduates' performance than the graduates do. The principals rated the majority of the graduates slightly above average compared to other beginning teachers, while the graduates rated themselves above or below their principals' ratings. The correlations of individual pairs of graduates and principals were, therefore, very low. The overall ratings of graduates and principals, obtained through the questionnaires and interviews, were similar. The college supervisors and cooperating teachers also showed agreement. However, the graduates and principals did not agree with the college supervisors and cooperating teachers in their ratings.

This study attemts to compare, among other things, the non-affiliated Physical Education program with affiliated program in the Texas High Schools to determine the value of such affiliation as a sound educational requirement.
