Para tanto, foi realizado um estudo de caso, apoiando-se na análise documental e nas entrevistas focadas como as fontes de evidência, perpassando por uma reconstituição histórica do processo de implantação e implementação do sistema de ensino de Jequié-BA, bem como por uma reflexão sobre a municipalização do ensino neste município. O estudo realizado teve como referencial metodológico a hermenêutica de profundidade (HP), cujos enfoques se deram através da análise social-histórica e da análise formal discursiva, com vistas a uma reinterpretação da realidade, isso porque, para a HP, o mundo social-histórico é uma realidade pré-interpretada pelos sujeitos socais (THOMPSON, 1995). Assim, as formas simbólicas - entendidas como um amplo espectro de ações e falas, imagens e textos produzidos pelos sujeitos e reconhecidos por eles próprios e por outros como constructos significativo - constituídas e constituintes, não podem ser desveladas, no sentido de mostrar a verdade, mas podem ser reinterpretadas. Sob essa perspectiva foi possível perceber que o regime de colaboração entre o sistema municipal de ensino de Jequié-BA, o sistema estadual de ensino da Bahia e o sistema federal de ensino têm se apresentado com alguns desafios a serem superados, tais como: os programas e projetos entre os sistemas têm mais se configurado em políticas de governo e menos em políticas de Estado; não há uma discussão ampliada e qualificada sobre a questão do regime de colaboração; diferentes concepções de educação e de regime de colaboração entre os gestores dos sistemas de ensino, ocasionando um desencontro das ações; a vaidade pela visibilidade das ações articuladas pelos sistemas de ensino, caracterizada pelo personalismo, inviabilizando uma ação de co-responsabilidades e de gestão compartilhada. Diante dos desafios postos, cabe uma rediscussão sobre o regime de colaboração, no significado etimológico do termo – labor, que traz seu sentido de trabalho. Portanto, espera-se que o regime de colaboração se efetive pelo trabalho conjunto, articulado, o que, fatalmente, implica numa gestão democrática, em que os seus atores não objetivam a sua visibilidade individual, mas que se comprometam – independente da fonte mantenedora - com a garantia de uma educação de qualidade para os cidadãos de direitos. Só assim é que se torna possível pensar na construção de um sistema nacional articulado de educação. / Salvador

CoordenaÃÃo de AperfeiÃoamento de Pessoal de NÃvel Superior / Esse estudo relata a geraÃÃo e sistematizaÃÃo de conhecimentos, levando a reflexÃes conceituais, teÃricas e aplicadas sobre sistemas de educaÃÃo corporativa. Parte do pressuposto de que inexistem processos de autoavaliaÃÃo institucional para sistemas de educaÃÃo corporativa, aplicados de forma intencional e sistemÃtica, em bancos de desenvolvimento brasileiros com abrangÃncia regional ou nacional que possuem universidade corporativa. Apresenta como objetivos a verificaÃÃo de diagnÃstico das prÃticas, das dimensÃes e fatores de educaÃÃo corporativa nessas instituiÃÃes, possibilitando a proposiÃÃo de modelo de autoavaliaÃÃo institucional. Vale-se de metodologia quadripolar, expressa nos polos epistemolÃgico, teÃrico, morfolÃgico e tÃcnico. Considera, ainda, a adoÃÃo de abordagens multirreferenciais â mÃtodos analÃtico e comparativo, e anÃlises sistÃmica e crÃtica. O estudo das categorias educaÃÃo, desenvolvimento e avaliaÃÃo possibilita delimitar suposiÃÃes e marcos epistemolÃgicos e teÃricos que fundamentam a proposiÃÃo de modelo de autoavaliaÃÃo. Em sua elaboraÃÃo à considerada a anÃlise de oito modelos de avaliaÃÃo, incluindo visÃes nacionais, europeias e norte-americanas, valendo-se de uma perspectiva multirreferencial, que incorpora as dimensÃes econÃmica, sociopolÃtica, ambiental e de gestÃo, dialeticamente articuladas, tendo como pano de fundo o desenvolvimento sustentÃvel. Esse modelo procura conciliar as perspectivas humanista e construtivista, com seus focos no aprendiz, na autorrealizaÃÃo, com a abordagem crÃtica, que se norteia pelos resultados da aprendizagem, notadamente com a mudanÃa social, e com uma vida melhor, a partir da autocrÃtica e da consciÃncia reflexiva dos atores envolvidos no processo de educaÃÃo corporativa. O modelo proposto serve de insumo para a composiÃÃo dos instrumentos de pesquisa, sendo analisados em prÃ-teste e utilizados na pesquisa de campo. Utiliza tÃcnicas qualitativas (entrevista, grupo focal e pesquisa documental), e quantitativas (aplicaÃÃo de questionÃrio) sendo os dados analisados mediante anÃlise de conteÃdo e anÃlise estatÃstica descritiva e inferencial. A amostra envolveu dois bancos de desenvolvimento, com aplicaÃÃo dos instrumentos junto a 184 sujeitos. O pressuposto foi validado junto aos participantes do grupo de prÃ-teste, dos dois gestores dos sistemas de educaÃÃo corporativa entrevistados, dos quatro grupos focais dos dois bancos pesquisados, bem como a partir da anÃlise documental. O instrumento (ApÃndice 2) demonstrou alto nÃvel de consistÃncia interna, com coeficiente Alfa de Cronbach superior a 0,900 para os critÃrios considerados na avaliaÃÃo do questionÃrio (relevÃncia 0,946, utilidade 0,940 e viabilidade 0,938). A aplicaÃÃo do instrumento (ApÃndice 2) com os grupos focais e treinandos aponta que a mÃdia geral das dimensÃes do questionÃrio foi relevante, Ãtil e viÃvel. Os resultados apresentados permitem elaborar um conjunto de evidÃncias sobre a situaÃÃo dos sistemas de educaÃÃo corporativa nos bancos de desenvolvimento brasileiros estudados, identificando as principais caracterÃsticas (dimensÃes, fatores e variÃveis) necessÃrias à proposiÃÃo de modelo de autoavaliaÃÃo institucional para sistemas de educaÃÃo corporativa em bancos de desenvolvimento brasileiros.

No bojo das conflituosas transformações decorrentes de políticas neoliberais-privatistas estão as universidades e o Sistema de Educação Superior (SES). Ao longo da década de 2000, apesar de as políticas neoliberais-privatistas terem ganho repúdio de amplos setores da sociedade, o que contrastou com a defesa mais explícita desse modelo político em década anterior, subsistiram não poucas permanências e traços do privatismo, sobretudo na Educação Superior (ES). Tal como países em desenvolvimento, Brasil e Argentina vivem, em ritmos, formas e intensidades específicas, o paradoxo de ter o respectivo SES pressionado por políticas privatistas, ao mesmo tempo em que a esses sistemas se impõem desafios de expansão da cobertura de vagas e melhoria na qualidade da educação que permitam a efetiva democratização das oportunidades no nível superior do ensino. Em meio a complexos problemas, um dos direcionamentos que podem ser identificados é a articulação da expansão do ensino superior com o privatismo. Nessa linha, a presente pesquisa analisou os processos de expansão e privatismo da ES no Brasil e na Argentina, buscando investigar, do ponto de vista do desenvolvimento da esfera pública e privada, o progresso do ensino superior ocorrido entre 1989 e 2009. O período abordado na análise se justifica por contemplar o vigor do neoliberalismo nos dois países a partir do final dos anos 1980, bem como permanências e mudanças consumadas nos referidos SES, particularmente até a metade do mandato de Cristina Kirchner e o segundo Governo de Lula, no ano de 2009. Partindo de peculiaridades do ponto de vista original da universidade em cada país analisado, buscaram-se semelhanças e diferenças na evolução dos SES. O foco do acompanhamento do ensino superior brasileiro e argentino, em análise comparativa, centrou os eixos de abordagem nas categorias ES pública e ES privada. Tendo como unidade de análise o SES dos dois países, a metodologia utilizada recaiu sobre a educação comparada. Na análise dos processos de expansão e privatismo na ES, as variáveis observadas foram as seguintes: crescimento quantitativo das IES; matrícula e acesso nos estabelecimentos públicos e privados; terminalidade nos SES; financiamento público e alguns programas para a ES nos dois países. A pesquisa verificou, dentre os sistemas do Brasil e da Argentina, o ensino superior no âmbito de diferenças de formação histórica de cada SES e os respectivos ajustes, as mudanças na legislação e o potencial reordenamento dos estabelecimentos da ES em direção a uma lógica induzida pelo capital. A comparação da configuração histórica da universidade em ambos os países evidenciou a presença original da iniciativa privada na ES no Brasil muito mais dominante do que na Argentina, sinalizando o protagonismo de uma e outra natureza jurídica a pública e a privada , além de características mais elitistas ou massificadas nos respectivos SES. Na análise das variáveis comparadas, aferiu-se, em especial nos anos 1990, maior voracidade do privatismo na ES de ambos os países. Na década de 2000, apesar de alguns traços não suprimidos de permanências da situação anterior, evidenciou-se, na Argentina, maior ruptura com as políticas privatistas dos anos 1990. No Brasil, em que pese o incremento de políticas públicas quanto à expansão do acesso, observa-se, simultaneamente ao aumento numérico de IES públicas, a continuidade e intensificação do privatismo sob outras formas de estímulos. / In the midst of the conflicting arising changes given the neo-liberal privatist political model, stands the University and Higher Education Systems (HES). Throughout the 2000s, despite neo-liberal privatist policies won repudiation of broad sectors of society, which contrasted with the more explicit defense of this political model in the previous decade, more than a few traces of privatism and permanencies survived mainly in Higher Education (HE). Amid these complex problems, one of the directions that can be identified is the articulation between HE expansion and privatism. In this way, the present study examined the processes of expansion and privatism of HE in Brazil and Argentina in order to investigate, in view of the development of public and private spheres, the progress of higher education that occurred between 1989 and 2009. The period covered in this analysis is justified by contemplating the effect of neo-liberalism in both countries from the late 1980s, as well as continuities and changes in those consummated SES, particularly until the mid-term of Cristina Kirchner and the second government of Lula, in 2009. Assuming the peculiarities of the original point of view of the university in each country, similarities and differences were searched in the evolution of HES. The focus of HE tracking in Brazil and Argentina, in a comparative analysis, centered the approach axes in HE private and public categories. Having as analysis unit the HES of both countries, the methodology focused in comparative education. In the analysis of the expansion and privatism processes in HE, the observed variables were the quantitative growth of IES; the enrollment and access to public and private education establishments; the completion in the HES; the public funding and some programs for the HE in both countries. The research verified, in the systems of Brazil and Argentina, HE from the perspective of comparison in the framework of differences in each HES historical formation and their respective adjustments, changes in legislation and the potential redevelopment of HE establishments towards a logic induced by capital. The comparison of the historical configuration of the university in both countries showed the original presence of private enterprise in Brazils HE much more prevalent than in Argentina, signaling the role of one and another legal nature the public and the private , besides more elitist or massify characteristics in each HES. In the analysis of compared variables, it was measured up, particularly in the 1990s, most voracious privatism in the HE of both countries. In the 2000s, although some traits not suppressed of previous situation stays, there was, in Argentina, a greater rupture from the 1990s privatist policies. In Brazil, in spite of public policies growth regarding access expansion, it is observed, simultaneously to the increased number of public HES, the carrying and intensification of other privatism forms of stimuli.

In 2008, Indiana launched a statewide child care quality rating and improvement system, called the Paths to Quality. To assist providers in improving the quality of their programs, professional development, coaching, and teacher support are provided. Yet the approach, format, and quality of coaching vary. This represents a potential disconnect between high-quality coaching, high-quality child care services, and positive child outcomes. The purpose of this study was to investigate stakeholder views on the strengths and needs of the early childhood coaches with respect to the current coaching system. To meet this goal, the focus group and dyadic interview data were collected with technical assistance administrators, early childhood coaches, and early childhood providers. Data were collected through audio recording and transcription of each data collection session. Results were analyzed by thematic analysis using the long-table approach. Five steps of familiarization, identifying, categorizing, labeling, and summarizing were used for interpretation of the results. The results showed that coaches have a passion for their profession and are very dedicated to helping support early childhood providers and teachers in their growth. On the other hand, the results also show the serious need for change in the coaching approaches and coaching model that is offered across the agency. There is a need for new complex formal training on coaching practices for both early childhood coaches and specialists and technical assistance administrators. Support for coaches needs to be established with an emphasis on an ongoing system of supports and follow up. Additionally, more specific areas of supports and its structure are presented in this study.

Cette recherche porte sur les inégalités sociales dans les systèmes éducatifs français et chilien. À la différence de l’abondante littérature sur ce sujet dans la sociologie de l’éducation et dans d’autres disciplines, ce travail ne vise ni à expliquer les inégalités ni à comparer leur ampleur. À partir d’une approche compréhensive basée sur la sociologie de l’expérience, nous étudions le lien entre les modes de production des inégalités au sein de chaque système éducatif et les expériences des élèves. Cette question est appréhendée à partir d’une comparaison qualitative consistant en un examen de la législation, des études empiriques et des statistiques décrivant chaque modèle d’une part, et en une enquête de terrain auprès des enseignants et des élèves d’autre part. Des entretiens semi-directifs ont été effectués dans quatre lycées de chaque pays incluant 119 personnes (79 élèves et 40 professeurs). Ces deux systèmes se rapprochent de deux figures idéal-typiques de production des inégalités : le mode socio-économique au Chili et le mode scolaire-culturel en France. Ces modes de production façonnent les expériences scolaires en termes de leur contenu et de leur distribution. Au Chili, les expériences des lycéens reflètent les inégalités socio-économiques, se traduisant par des sentiments de macro-injustice ; en France les expériences se configurent autour des inégalités proprement scolaires avec une prééminence des sentiments de micro-injustice. Enfin, la culture scolaire nationale agit sur ce rapport entre les modes de production et les expériences ; au Chili elle atténue la critique de l’injustice de l’École alors qu’en France, elle l’exacerbe. / The present research examines social inequalities in French and Chilean education systems. Diverging from the abundant literature on this subject in the sociology of education and other disciplines, the goal of this research was to neither explain the inequalities nor compare their extent. Instead, we took a comprehensive approach based on the sociology of experience, to study the relation between the forms of inequality production in each education system and students’ experience of it. This issue was investigated through a qualitative comparison of the two education systems, in which we examined on the one hand, the legislation, the empirical studies and the statistics of each national model and on the other hand, a field study with teachers and students. The latter consisted of 119 semi-directive interviews (79 students and 40 teachers) in four high schools in each country. The two systems approximate two ideal-types of inequality production: the social-economic mode in Chile and the educational-cultural mode in France. These modes of production shape both the content and the distribution of the schooling experience. In Chile, the students’ experience reflects social-economic inequalities translated into feelings of macro-injustice; in France, experiences are formed by inequalities in the schooling process with a preeminence of feelings of micro-injustice. Finally, national schooling cultures act upon the relationship between the forms of inequality production and the experiences: In Chile, it attenuates the criticism of injustice toward school, while in France it is exacerbated.

The following three articles in this dissertation challenge the current rationale of internationalization and makes the case for anew approach to internationalization within U.S. higher education. My first article delves deep into the rationale of internationalization in U.S. higher education over the years by way of U.S. study abroad. This analysis identifies and evaluates the multiple cause-and –effect relationships in a historical context in order to understand the origins that led to the expansion of internationalization efforts within U.S. higher education. My second article explores Mansilla and Gardner’s global consciousness framework as a viable solution to the issues that are currently plaguing internationalization efforts in U.S. higher education. I contend that the global consciousness framework provides an alternative approach to internationalization that is rooted in mindfulness rather than competiveness. Finally, my third article evaluates the impact of this proposed solution by examining how Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine students within the Purdue University College of Veterinary Medicine view their roles and careers in society after engaging with the global consciousness framework. Overall, these articles take a critical lens to our approach in preparing students for the global era.

The study investigated the perceptions of student nurses and supervisors with regard to the block system used in the general nurse diploma programme in Zimbabwe. Their perceptions were elicited so that the researcher could identify the positive and negative aspects of the blook system which respectively promote and inhibit or obstruct the teaching and learning of student nurses. The study was conducted at the Harare, Parirenyatwa, Mpilo and United Bulawayo Schools of Nursing and in Mashonaland East province. A cross·sectional descriptive survey research design was used to obtain accurate information about the block system. Data was collected from nurse teachers, clinical teachers and sisters in charge of wards/units by means of structured interviews and from community health nurses and student nurses by means of self-administered questionnaires. The following positive aspects of study blocks were identified: the availability of time for student nurses to acquire knowledge, skills and attitudes without fear of hurting patients, the availability and willingness of nurse teachers to teach, the attendance of study blocks as groups and straight off duties. During clinical area placements, the integration of theory and practice took place, and there were opportunities for student nurses to apply the knowledge and skills they learnt during study blocks and to work as members of health teams. The negative aspects of the study blocks that were identified included too much theory content taught in each study block, inadequate demonstrations, a shortage of nurse teachers, no periods for individual study, a theory-practice gap and the too-frequent use of the formal lecture teaching method. The negative aspects of the clinical area placements included the inadequate teaching/supervision of student nurses, excessive night duties for student nurses, a shortage of qualified staff: clinical allocation of student nurses not based on study block content, inadequate clinical teaching by nurse teachers, and unplanned clinical teaching. Most clinical teaching was performed by peers and the most junior professional nurses. / Health Studies / D.Litt. et Phil. (Advanced Nursing Sciences)
