No. of bitstreams: 1 Marina Borges Muriana.pdf: 2844381 bytes, checksum: 2df156221dac5863fc2a49141cdc385d (MD5) Previous issue date: 2018-08-23 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / In this research I investigate the phenomena traditional class, whose backbone is the coursebook, and complex class, based on the Complex Educational Design (CED), both from the students’ perspective. The phenomena emerge from experiences in English language classes for adults, at a language institute. The English proficiency level in Brazil is not satisfactory when compared to other countries and, associated to that, the contemporary world demands didactic alternatives which can be more inclusive, being able to embrace the interwoven network knowledge. Thus, I propose a reflection upon the contrasts between a traditional and a complex class, based on the essence arising from the description and interpretation processes of such classes. For this purpose, the methodological basis is the complex hermeneutic-phenomenological approach (FREIRE, 2010, 2012, 2017), which, for being a qualitative approach, enables the articulation of objectivity and subjectivity during the interpretation process, fostering the revelation of the essence of the human experiences’ phenomena studied. As theoretical support, I chose the complexity epistemology (MORIN, 1999, 2001, 2005, 2013, 2015) due to its articulation to the methodological approach used, which demonstrates its inter/transdisciplinarity from a teaching-learning point of view, according to Fazenda (2006, 2012) and Leffa (2006). To design the traditional classes, I used coursebooks by an international publisher and for its theoretical basis I found support in the studies of Paiva (2009), who brings a historical overview of the English language coursebook in Brazil, and Souza (1997-1998), who considers that a pedagogical weapon. To the complex classes, I chose a design based on the Complex Educational Design (FREIRE, 2013) proposing a course design based on complexity. Average forty-five-minute classes were taught to two different groups; each one had a traditional and a complex class and the teacher required the seven students to write a text describing the class they had just participated in. Fourteen texts were obtained, and they were interpreted based on the complex hermeneutic-phenomenological approach. From the texts describing the traditional classes, the following themes emerged: Grammar, Learning, Information, Transmission, Repetition and Dynamism. From the complex classes, the themes that emerged were Reflection, Discussion, Learning, Expression and Sharing. The contrasts between the themes of the two kinds of classes suggest that a complex design, for embracing traditional aspects, can be more inclusive, besides promoting reflections upon contemporary issues / Neste estudo, investigo os fenômenos aula tradicional, cuja espinha-dorsal é o livro didático, e aula complexa, baseada no design educacional complexo (DEC), ambos na perspectiva dos alunos. Os fenômenos descritos e interpretados são as vivências dos alunos, tendo como contexto aulas de língua inglesa para adultos, em um instituto de idiomas. O nível de proficiência em língua inglesa no Brasil não é considerado baixo se comparado a outros países e, associado a isso, o cenário contemporâneo demanda alternativas didáticas mais inclusivas, capazes de abarcar também um pensamento em rede. Proponho, por isso, a reflexão a respeito dos contrastes entre uma aula tradicional e uma aula complexa, por meio das essências que emergem do processo de descrição e interpretação de tais aulas. Para tanto, baseio-me metodologicamente na Abordagem Hermenêutico-Fenomenológica Complexa, ou AHFC (FREIRE, 2010, 2012, 2017), que, por ser uma abordagem qualitativa de estudo, permite que objetividade e subjetividade se articulem durante o processo interpretativo, auxiliando na descoberta das essências dos fenômenos da experiência humana estudados. Como aporte teórico, optei pela epistemologia da complexidade (MORIN, 1999, 2001, 2005, 2013, 2015), a qual está articulada à abordagem metodológica escolhida e que, no âmbito do ensino-aprendizagem, apresenta sua característica inter/transdisciplinar conforme Fazenda (2006, 2012) e Leffa (2006). Para a confecção das aulas tradicionais, utilizei livros didáticos voltados ao ensino de língua inglesa de uma editora internacional e, para a fundamentação teórica a respeito do mesmo, obtive respaldo nos estudos de Paiva (2009), que apresenta um panorama histórico do uso do livro didático de língua inglesa no Brasil, e de Souza (1997-1998), que o apresenta como uma arma pedagógica. Para o desenho das aulas complexas, utilizei uma proposta embasada no DEC (FREIRE, 2013), o qual propõe um desenho de curso fundamentado na complexidade. Foram ministradas aulas de quarenta e cinco minutos, em média, em dois grupos distintos; cada um dos grupos participou de uma aula tradicional e de uma aula complexa e, ao final de cada aula, a professora pediu que os sete alunos participantes escrevessem um texto descrevendo a aula da qual participaram; foram obtidos quatorze textos, que foram interpretados por meio da AHFC. Dos textos referentes às aulas tradicionais emergiram os temas Gramática, Aprendizagem, Informações, Transmissão, Repetição e Dinamismo, e, dos textos referentes às aulas complexas, os temas foram Reflexão, Discussão, Aprendizagem, Expressão e (o) Compartilhar. Os contrastes entre os temas advindos dos dois tipos de aulas sugerem que uma proposta complexa, por abarcar também o tradicional, pode ser mais inclusiva, além de promover reflexões pertinentes a questões contemporâneas

The problem of the investigation is worded as follows: educational concept that is present in the Institutional Scholarship Program Introduction to Teaching (Pibid) in consideration of pragmatism? Capes, from 2009, went on to create educational policies for the improvement of basic education, including Pibid. The philosophical perspective, interests investigate the assumptions of this educational concept in the plan, through official documents and, as a hypothesis, investigate whether the pragmatic education approach is present, or the need to prepare teachers for teaching, from the point of view of the organization of the curriculum, the practical nature of teacher education. It is not intended to discuss the issue of teacher training, as this work is allocated in line for Public Policy Research in Education: the purpose of, first, discuss and understand the educational concept present in Pibid by studying, therefore, its implementation process, from official data. The method relates to the literature review, with emphasis on the analysis of documents, comprising: reports, laws, edicts, decrees and documents of the Basic Education Board and CAPES, which documents are constituted as expedients to be analyzed. From the point of view of substance, it seeks to support and clarify the educational pragmatic conception of John Dewey and through this reference, program design analysis is made. As result achieved, we find that the educational concept present in the Institutional Program Initiation Scholarships to Teaching presents pragmatism of evidence developed by John Dewey, approved in Brazil by the writings of AnisioTeixeira. / O presente trabalho analisa a concep??o educacional de uma pol?tica p?blica da Diretoria de Educa??o B?sica (DEB) da Coordena??o de Aperfei?oamento de Pessoal de N?vel Superior (CAPES), do Programa Institucional de Bolsas de Inicia??o ?

Doc?ncia (Pibid) na considera??o do pragmatismo? A Capes, a partir de 2009, passou a criar pol?ticas educacionais para o aprimoramento da Educa??o B?sica, incluindo o Pibid. Na perspectiva filos?fica, interessa investigar os pressupostos da concep??o educacional presente no plano, por meio dos documentos oficiais e, como hip?tese, investigar se a perspectiva de educa??o pragm?tica est? presente, seja pela necessidade de preparar professores para a pr?tica docente, seja do ponto de vista da organiza??o da matriz curricular, pelo car?ter pr?tico da forma??o do professor. N?o se pretende discutir a quest?o da forma??o docente, dado que este trabalho est? alocado na linha de pesquisa de Pol?ticas P?blicas em Educa??o: busca-se, antes, discutir e compreender a concep??o educacional presente no Pibid, estudando-se, para tanto, seu processo de implementa??o, a partir dos dados oficiais. O m?todo diz respeito ? revis?o da literatura, com destaque para a an?lise documental, compreendendo: relat?rios, leis, editais, portarias e documentos da Diretoria de Educa??o B?sica e da CAPES, documentos estes que se constituem como expedientes a serem analisados. Do ponto de vista do m?rito, busca-se fundamentar e esclarecer a concep??o pragm?tica educacional de John Dewey e, por meio dessa refer?ncia, uma an?lise da concep??o do Programa ? feita.

As novas dinâmicas de interação possiblitadas pela Web 2.0 reformulam a aprendizagem como atividade que se estende a diversas áreas ligadas ao saber. Aprender à luz das novas tecnologias exige estratégias que se adequem às possibilidades de interação com a informação, conforme particularidades das mídias em que elas se fazem disponíveis, as particularidades de aprendizagem de cada indivíduo e o contexto que determina necessidades de acesso. Educadores, designers instrucionais / educacionais e estrategistas de conteúdo revisam, invariavelmente, processos para melhor compreender os mecanismos pelos quais informação é transformada em conhecimento. Esses estão aptos a interpretar os métodos pelos quais indivíduos processam informação e apropriam conteúdos de origens variadas em uma prática que podemos chamar aprendizagem ou meaning making. Nesse contexto, surge o conceito de narrativas transmidiáticas, capaz de abarcar as práticas de aprendizagem que, multifacetadas, são possibilitadas pelos recursos midiáticos que compõem nosso cotidiano. A construção de significado se dá na medida em que construímos narrativas, linhas mestras coerentes que nos permitem interagir de forma eficiente com os diferentes conteúdos aos quais temos acessos. Esse trabalho investigou o conceito de narrativa e o impacto da utilização de mídias na forma de interagir com os outros e, também, com o conhecimento; a aprendizagem no contexto das narrativas transmidiáticas; dois exemplos concretos e distintos em que aprende-se através de narrativas construídas a partir do uso combinado de mídias. Por fim, buscou-se apontar novos caminhos a serem explorados por pesquisadores interessados na forma como aprendizagem e comunicação se dão em um contexto caracterizado pelas mídias digitais. / The new dynamics empowered by web 2.0 reframes learning as an activity that permeates different areas of knowledge. In the light of new technologies, the goal of reaching a certain knowledge demands adequate strategies. These must be appropriate to the various possibilities of interaction with information, according to media\'s affordances, individual\'s learning particularities and the context that determined individual necessities of access. Educators, educational / instructional designers and content strategists invariably revise procedures to better understand the mechanics through which information is turned into knowledge. These professionals are able to understand the methods through which individuals process information and appropriate content from different resources in a practice that we can call learning or meaning making. In this context, appears the term transmedia narratives: a concept that encompasses plural learning practices enabled by media resources that compose our reality. Meaning making happens as we build narratives, coherent guidelines that empower ourselves to interact efficiently with the different types of content we have access to. This study investigated the concept of narrative and the impact of media in our ways to interact with others and with knowledge; learning in the context of transmedia narratives; two concrete and distinct examples in which one learn through narratives built with the use of various combined media. Finally, this study aimed to indicate new research pathways to be explored by researchers interested in the way learning and communication happen in a context determined by the digital media.

This study focuses on challenges and prospects of the teaching of the Doppler Effect to grade 12 learners. The challenges of teaching the Doppler Effect were established and these findings influenced the development of activities. These activities were tested, refined and re-tested in an iterative cycle and finally provided prospects on teaching the Doppler Effect. Educational Design Research (EDR) was used to bridge theory and practice in education. This study was done in the Vhembe district in the Limpopo province. In the first cycle, questionnaires and interviews with 32 teachers and a subject advisor were used to establish the baseline with regards to the challenges of teaching the Doppler Effect. After the analysis of the data which forms the first cycle of EDR, the content and methodological problems faced by teachers when teaching the Doppler Effect were revealed. In the second cycle of the EDR, learning activities were developed that was informed by the analysis and tried out in 2 schools by learners and their teachers. Completed activity sheets were marked and the results were used to determine if there were a correlation between the activity sheets and the written test. Problems were documented and changes to the activities were again made and tried out in 10 schools by 216 learners with the help of 10 teachers. The data collected from the learners` work sheets were analysed. Pearson`s product moment correlation has shown that there is a statistically significant relationship (r = 0.65; p < 0.01) that exists between these design-research activities and solving of problems on the Doppler Effect. An instructional manual was developed comprising of the final activities. This was distributed amongst the district officials and teachers to assist them in the teaching of the Doppler Effect in the Vhembe district. / Physics / M.Sc.

Fragmentation refers to the difficulties that students face when attempting to utilise substantive knowledge to make a useable big picture of the past. What possibilities are there to prevent fragmentation, within the framework of regular history teaching in school? In this thesis I tackle this question with interest in teaching methods proposed by history teachers. The research project is designed with the intention to provide the participating teachers with “reasonably good conditions” to be able to form an opinion about the problem of fragmentation. In the research project the participating teachers take part of litterature from the research field of history teaching, and processing the problem of fragmentation through discussion in focus groups and through planning of a history course. In this study I investigate how eight history teachers, given “reasonably good conditions”, imagine feasible teaching in order to prevent fragmentation within the frames of a History 1a1 course. Three research objects are being investigated. What are the teachers´ views regarding: 1) efficient teaching to prevent fragmentation? 2) the framework of teaching? 3) a History course that is including an action plan in order to prevent fragmentation? The study shows that the teachers experience limited possibilities to conduct efficient teaching to prevent fragmentation within the frames of a History 1a1-course. The teachers still, regardless of these limitations, find it possible to conduct strategically focused teaching to prevent fragmentation. The teaching strategies presented by the teachers can be more or less significant and the teachers are not necessarily prepared to allot time and resources to these strategies. Feasible teaching in order to prevent fragmentation is not necessarily associated with strategically aimed teaching. / Elevers svar på vad som har hänt i det förflutna består många gånger av lösryckt historisk stoffkunskap i form av årtal, anekdoter, händelser och historiska personer. Få elever kan använda historiska kunskaper för att konstruera stora och användbara bilder av det förflutna. I denna explorativa designstudie undersöks historielärares föreställningar om hur fragmentering kan motverkas i historieundervisningen.   Studien baseras på empiriskt material från "workshops" med åtta historielärare på gymnasiet. Lärarnas huvuduppgift bestod i att planera och presentera en planering av en Historia 1a1-kurs som innefattar en handlingsplan för att motverka fragmentering. Analysen visar bland annat att de medverkande lärarna upplever möjlighetsrummet att bedriva effektiv undervisning mot fragmentering inom ramarna för Historia 1a1-kursen som begränsat, dock inte obefintligt. Inom detta begränsade möjlighetsrum ser lärarna bland annat vissa möjligheter att bedriva strategiskt inriktad undervisning mot fragmentering.

Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Education in the Faculty of Education and Social Sciences at the Cape Peninsula University of Technology 2013 / Parental involvement in rural multigrade schools in South Africa is poor. This is mainly due to a lack of support for and insufficient knowledge regarding the development of a programme that would increase parental involvement at rural multigrade schools in South Africa. The context of multigrade education in South Africa reflects the reality of a lack of parental involvement. South African rural multigrade education is beset by a variety of internal and external challenges which have a detrimental effect on effective parental involvement. However, in the rural multigrade school context, parents have untapped potential that needs to be identified and acted upon in order to empower parents; this could provide the rural marginalised children with meaningful access to quality education. Research has proved that parental involvement has a positive effect on the quality of education. According to research, the six types of parental involvement are parenting, communicating, volunteering, learning at home, decision-making and collaborating with the community. In this study the focus was on involving parents in learning and allowing them to become active partners in education. To increase parental involvement in learning at rural multigrade schools in South Africa, an intervention was needed. This intervention came in the form of a school, community and family partnership programme. The core elements of a school, community and family partnership programme (SCAF partnership programme) were the creation of partnerships and communication channels between the school, community and family, as well as the utilisation of existing community resources. These core elements had a specific focus on learning. This study used Bourdieu's (1986) theory on capital and Epstein's (1995) theory of overlapping spheres of influence. The purpose of this study was to determine the characteristics of an effective school, community and family partnership programme that would increase parental involvement in learning at rural multigrade schools in South Africa. Design-based research was employed in order to design, develop and test the proposed programme. Research was conducted in two phases. During the preliminary phase, a needs and content analysis, review of literature, and the development of a conceptual or theoretical framework for the study were conducted. This was followed by a prototyping phase which is an iterative design phase consisting of iterations, each being a micro-cycle of research with formative evaluation as the most important research activity, and which is aimed at improving and refining the intervention. Summative evaluation was conducted during the prototype phase in order to determine whether the solution or intervention met the pre-determined specifications. Data gathered during this study indicated: 1. The SCAF partnership programme can increase parental involvement in learning at rural multigrade schools if certain product and process characteristics are active. 2. The SCAF partnership programme allows utilising school, home and community capital through interaction and collaboration to increase parental involvement in learning. 3. A SCAF partnership programme should focus on learning through creating partnerships and opportunities for communication, and utilising community resources. 4. A SCAF partnership programme should be employed through a specific process. 5. Design research offers an appropriate and powerful approach to design, develop and implement a SCAF partnership programme that increases parental involvement in learning at rural multigrade schools.

It also investigates how the use of the complex educational design as a guide to develop online English language teaching-learning activities can contribute to maintaining the participation of students, who usually show an interest in using digital technology tools to extend their classroom learning, but who often discontinue their use. Besides the complex educational design, this study is also theoretically grounded on complexity (MORIN, 2003, 2005, 2015a, 2015b, 2015c), which are the basis for the development of complex online workshops that reflect students’ reality, interests, needs, and expectations. The research is methodologically grounded on the complex hermeneutic-phenomenological approach (FREIRE, 2010, 2012, 2017), which articulates with the theoretical foundation used. The eight research participants were students from different face-to-face classrooms from the English language course of an educational institution in the city of São Paulo. Their English language proficiency level ranged from beginning of B1 to B1+ of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. The focal workshop was two weeks in length and was held asynchronously on the Google Classroom virtual environment. Three research instruments were used by students to textually record their perceptions of the phenomenon: a first week account, a final questionnaire, and a non-participation account. The texts generated by students’ responses to the instruments were interpreted following the complex hermeneutic-phenomenological approach procedures, which revealed the following themes: learning, development, time, difference, interaction, self-reflection, protagonism, and connection. Such themes depict the nature of the experience of the phenomenon under investigation / Esta é uma pesquisa qualitativa na área de Linguística Aplicada que tem por objetivo descrever e interpretar o fenômeno vivência em oficina on-line complexa, desenvolvida com base no design educacional complexo (FREIRE, 2013), como extensão da sala de aula de inglês, na perspectiva dos alunos. Também investiga de que forma a utilização do design educacional complexo como linha norteadora para o desenvolvimento de atividades on-line para o ensino-aprendizagem da língua inglesa pode contribuir para a manutenção da participação dos alunos, que, muitas vezes, demonstram interesse em utilizar ferramentas de tecnologia digital como extensão de sua aprendizagem presencial, mas que geralmente descontinuam seu uso. Além do design educacional complexo, este estudo também se embasa teoricamente na complexidade (MORIN, 2003, 2005, 2015a, 2015b, 2015c), que fundamentam o desenvolvimento de oficinas on-line complexas que refletem a realidade, interesses, necessidades e expectativas dos alunos. A pesquisa tem o embasamento metodológico da abordagem hermenêutico-fenomenológica complexa (FREIRE, 2010, 2012, 2017), que se articula à fundamentação teórica utilizada. Os oito participantes da pesquisa eram alunos de turmas presenciais diferentes do curso de inglês de uma instituição de ensino na cidade de São Paulo. Seu nível de proficiência na língua inglesa variava de início de B1 a B1+ do Quadro Europeu Comum de Referência para Línguas. A oficina focal teve a duração de duas semanas e foi realizada de forma assíncrona no ambiente virtual Google Classroom. Foram utilizados três instrumentos para o registro textual pelos alunos de suas percepções a respeito do fenômeno: um relato da primeira semana, um questionário final e um relato de não participação. Os textos gerados pelas respostas aos instrumentos foram interpretados segundo os procedimentos da abordagem hermenêutico-fenomenológica complexa, revelando os seguintes temas: aprendizagem, desenvolvimento, tempo, diferença, interação, autorreflexão, protagonismo e conexão. Tais temas caracterizam a natureza da vivência do fenômeno investigado
