The focus of this study is teachers' receptivity to new teaching models. Traditionally, research has been conducted to assess teachers' implementation of innovations. The stage prior to learning and implementing the model generally has been generally ignored. In this study, the researcher assumed that the level of teachers' receptivity could influence upon whether and to what extent the new teaching model is implemented. This study was designed to identify personal characteristics and environmental variables that affect the degree of teacher receptivity to a teaching model. Four teacher-participants were selected according to their level of receptivity to one of the models included in the study, Madeline Hunter's Essential Elements of Instruction or Hilda Taba's Teaching Strategies. The data collected through interviews were analyzed in two directions. First, participants' beliefs, experiences, and workplace conditions were identified using qualitative case study methodology. Second, participants' perceptions of the teaching models were analyzed using Rogers' (1962) framework for determining characteristics of an innovation. Several themes related to participants' receptivity to new teaching models, and their beliefs, experiences, and workplace conditions were revealed. These comprise differences in teachers' pedagogical orientations and in their perceptions of teaching models' characteristics, including the way the model was introduced, changes in levels receptivity, teaching models in relation to the student population served, satisfaction with workplace conditions, level of familiarity with the new teaching model, teachers' independence, and behavioral changes required by the teaching model. The study may be of particular interest to staff developers and educators of students teachers because of the importance of considering teachers' individual needs and characteristics when introducing new teaching models.

Além disso, pretende-se elucidar aos educadores que tanto o currículo, como os livros didáticos, não são recursos pedagógicos neutros e podem carregar em si uma ideologia e contribuir para a reprodução de valores dos grupos dominantes. Considerando que o Caderno do Aluno, destinado ao Ensino Médio nas escolas do estado de São Paulo, é o principal instrumento de ensino e aprendizagem utilizados pelos docentes, até pela dificuldade para aquisição de diferentes materiais, propomos a análise destes Cadernos, coadunada à Proposta Curricular para a disciplina de História, a Lei 10.639/2003 e as possibilidades de intervenção. Nessa perspectiva, propomos um conjunto de atividades - sequência didática - na qual são considerados os valores culturais africanos para a formação do Brasil, como forma de reconhecer a diversidade cultural e, ainda refletir sobre as manifestações preconceituosas tanto no ambiente escolar como também na sociedade como um todo. / Abstract: The research intends to investigate how the history of Africa and Afro-Brazilian culture is presented and developed in the curriculum proposal of the secondary education of the schools of the SEE/SP. In addition, it is intended to elucidate to educators that both the curriculum and the textbooks are not neutral pedagogical resources and can carry withih themselves and ideology and contribute to the reproduction of values of the dominant groups. Considering that the Student Booklet, destined to the High School in the schools of the state of São Paulo, is the main teaching and learning instrument used by the teachers, even for the difficulty to acquire different materials, we propose the analysis of these booklet, linked of the curriculum proposal for the discipline of History. Law 10.639/2003 and the possibilities of intervention. From this perspective, we proposal a set of activities - a didactic sequence - in which African cultural values are considered for the formation of Brazil as a way of recognizing cultural diversity and also reflect on prejudiced manifestations both in the school environment and in society as a one all / Mestre

A pesquisa tem por objetivo discutir o princípio de flexibilidade no contexto dos currículos da EPTNM, considerando aspectos teóricos e metodológicos, vislumbrando reconhecer possibilidades para elaboração dos currículos moldados. Trata-se de investigação qualitativa em educação com as seguintes ações: revisão bibliográfica em duas bases de dados nacionais - Biblioteca Digital de Teses e Dissertações e Scientific Electronic Library Online, análises documentais dos currículos prescritos - LDB de 1996; Parecer CNE/CEB n.º 11/2012; Resolução CNE/CEB n.º 6/2012 - e os currículos moldados de uma escola técnica estadual paulista - Plano Plurianual de Gestão e Projeto Político Pedagógico (2016-2020) e Plano do curso Técnico em Informática para a Internet Integrado ao Ensino Médio. Constata-se que nos currículos prescritos e moldados existe uma prescrição de flexibilidade curricular que fragmenta a formação e possibilita a especialização a partir das demandas do mercado de trabalho. Portanto, no projeto educacional para a classe trabalhadora, a ênfase do discurso de flexibilidade curricular não deve prescindir a defesa de uma formação integral, a partir da qual será possível superar a dualidade estrutural em currículos de cursos propalados como integrad...

The aim of the research is to discuss the principle of flexibility in the context of PTESL curricula, based on theoretical and methodological aspects, with a view to recognizing possibilities for the elaboration of molded curricula. This is qualitative research in education with the following actions: bibliographic review in two national databases - Digital Thesis and Dissertation Library and Scientific Electronic Library Online - documentary analyzes of the prescribed curricula - LDB of 1996; CNE/CEB Opinion n.º. 11/2012; Resolution CNE/CEB n.º 6/2012 - and the molded curricula of a state technical school in São Paulo - Multiyear Plan of Management and Political Pedagogical Project (2016-2020) and Plan of the Technical Course in Informatics for Internet Integrated to High School. It is observed that in the prescribed curricula there is a prescription of curricular flexibility that fragments the training and makes possible the specialization from the demands of the job market. Therefore, in the educational project for the working class, the emphasis of the discourse of curricular flexibility should not dispense with the defense of an integral formation, from which it will be possible to overcome the structural duality in curricula ...

The defensibility of special classes and programs for gifted students is an issue with academic, social, and political ramifications. Critical components of programs for the gifted include the curriculum and service delivery model. This author examined the effect of two teaching/learning models, the Parnes Creative Problem Solving model and the Hilda Taba Teaching Strategies on the higher cognitive processes of gifted students in grades 5 through 8. Three service delivery models were included. The design of the study was the 3 x 3 x 2 analysis of variance with repeated measures on the last factor. The between subjects factors were experimental condition--Parnes, Taba, and Control--and service delivery model--Daily, One Day per Week, and Self-Contained. The within factor was the time of testing, the pre and posttest scores. Fourteen classes of gifted students in grades 5 through 8 were included: a total of 213 students took both the pretest and the posttest. The analysis of variance with repeated measures revealed two significant between subjects effects: interaction of treatment with service delivery model (p < .0001) and treatment effect (p < .02). The analysis of variance within factors indicated no significant effects (p < .05) except difference between the pretest and the posttest scores. Since the period of time between the pre and posttest was about seven months, this growth is expected and is not informative. Post hoc tests, using the Scheffe formula, showed significant (p < .10) differences in favor of both the Parnes and the Taba Daily groups when compared to the Control group, and a significant (p < .10) difference favoring the Taba Self-Contained when compared to the Taba One Day per Week group. The supporting data gathered indicated that three teachers did not implement their teaching/learning model effectively and two additional teachers used the model infrequently. The posttest cell means appear to be related not only to correct model implementation, but to frequency as well. Those cells with the highest frequencies of correct model use had the highest posttest mean scores. Therefore, it was concluded that process models offer a powerful method of teaching the higher cognitive processes to gifted students, but that such models must be used correctly and frequently.
