This research study is an analysis of the intertwining concepts of collaboration, prosumption, and communication in the contemporary digital educational space. The major objective of this thesis is to understand the operationalisation of the collaborative production of free and open artefacts. For this purpose, a framework is established for investigating communication and interaction activities of the people involved and their usage of ICT supported communications. Three exemplary projects are then examined using this framework: Schulbuch-O-Mat, a pilot project in which an electronic OER schoolbook is created; Memrise, an online platform which offers a wide range of user-created learning courses in a variety of topics; and VroniPlag Wiki, a wiki in which dissertations are collaboratively examined in terms of plagiarism. Data for this study were collected in the form of a comparative multiple-case study using a mix of methods such as interviews, questionnaires, participant observation, and the analysis of documents. Using situational analysis, a comparative analysis was conducted in terms of the three main aspects of this study: prosumption, collaboration, and communications. The results show that a balanced mix of communication enabling tools and services facilitates high collaboration. It was also concluded that collaborative working procedures benefit from diverse ways to address participants. The obtained data support the view that less hierarchical structures simplify collaborations and prosumption. Further research should address the issue of digital labour and exploitation as well as the management of conflicts in prosumer orientated collaborations. As a further outcome, a system of categories was derived in the analysis part of this thesis. This categorisation system serves as a foundation towards an approach of analysing collaborative communication.

É com esse entendimento que a presente pesquisa aborda os desafios que a gestão escolar necessita enfrentar e superar para que efetivamente possa consolidar uma educação democrática e uma prática transformadora, cujo centro é a pessoa. Iniciando nosso estudo faz-se uma inserção pelo processo da gestão escolar entendendo-a como parte essencial para viabilizar um projeto emancipador à escola, aos educadores e ao educandos. Para tanto, investigamos a gênese da escola na modernidade e as implicações de sua organização no exercício cotidiano da elaboração do processo de produção do conhecimento escolar e das resistências que permeiam a escola, bem como, analisamos os paradoxos e conseqüências da modernidade que se estendem para a educação. Decorrente dessas análises é que vamos defender a construção de um projeto democrático e emancipador para a escola brasileira, tomando como referência a Escola da Ponte em Portugal. Esta, na construção de um projeto educativo consciente, coletivo e centrado conseguiu modificar os padrões vigentes na escola pública reconhecido por todos os atores sociais nela envolvidos e legalmente, pelos órgãos superiores de educação em Portugal / Abstract: The democratic management of the Brazilian education still shows itself as an inconclusive project, especially when it refers to the pedagogic work organization, which is the proper axis of the school. And using this understanding, the present research broaches the challenges that the school management needs to face and get it over so it can effectively strengthen a democratic education and a transforming practice, whose center is the person. Starting our study, an insertion through the school management process understanding it as an essential part to supply na emancipating project to the school, the educators and students is done. Then the origin of the school in the modernity and the implications of its organization in the daily exercise of the elaboration of the school knowledge production process and the difficulties that involve the school, also analyzing the paradoxes and the consequences of the modernity that extend to the education were investigated. From these analysis, a construction of a democratic and emancipating project to the Brazilian school takings reference the School of the Bridge in Portugal that in the construction of a conscious, collective, focused on the human being educational project, modified the current public school standards and those recognized by the involved people and the Superior Department of Education of Portugal is defended. / Doutorado / Politicas de Educação e Sistemas Educativos / Mestre em Educação

I denna studie undersöks förhållandet mellan dansundervisning och de platser där de äger rum, i huvudsak skolans danssalar. Genom att intervjua danslärare och elever på gymnasiets estetiska program, samt göra observationer i skolmiljöer, ställs frågor om hur dansundervisningen å ena sidan påverkas av den plats där den äger rum å andra sidan kan påverka eller utforska dessa platser. Danskurserna på gymnasiet är, enligt styrdokumenten, konstnärliga ämnen, och i de övergripande syftesbeskrivningarna nämns att kurserna ska ge eleverna ett ”konstnärligt förhållningssätt”. Med utgångspunkt från studiens resultat och från kursernas styrdokument kopplas de kursmoment och kunskapskrav som särskilt berör dansen och rummet till övergripandes frågor om konstnärlig process och om lärandeprocesser. När det gäller dansen och platsen som pedagogiskt rum kan då vara både och: att den fysiska miljön, till exempel danssalen i skolan, är både en påtaglig fysisk ”scen” och ett sätt att rita en karta över en plats i fantasin. / This study examines the relation between dance education and the sites where it takes place, primarily classrooms and dance studios in schools. By interviewing dance teachers and students in the aesthetic program at upper secondary school, as well as making observations in school environments, questions are asked about how dance teaching on the one hand is affected by the site where it takes place, on the other hand can influence or explore these sites. The dance courses at the upper secondary school are, according to the governing documents, artistic subjects, and in the overall purpose descriptions it is mentioned that the courses should give the students an "artistic approach". Based on the results of the study and from the course governing documents, the course elements and knowledge requirements that particularly affect dance and space are linked to overall questions about the artistic process and about overall learning processes. Questions about dance and its relation to place as an educational space can then be both the physical environment, for example the dance studio in school, a tangible physical "scene", and a way to draw a map of a place in the imagination.

As interior designers, we strive to design everything for our clients, from complex environments to the joinery of a chair. We rarely consider inviting our clients or the users to join us in finishing the space. Read-In workshop is not a school, but a kind of home, a home belonging to children, which provides the possibilities for children to play, to learn, to occupy, to personalize, and to share. An emotional space that will not limit the user, but keep inspiring them. It helps children notice, think, and grow. Half of the interior space will be a fixed design, designed and fabricated during the first construction phase. The other Half will be designed as a flexible and changeable “framework” space, which allow the users to reorganize, repaint, and refinish, depending on their evolving educational needs and aesthetic tastes. Therefore, this “incomplete” workshop will share control with children. The contents of the framework will be continuously updated by the children who participate in the Read-In arts programs.

There is a growing body of literature that recognizes the importance of outdoor learning spaces in educational practice with children. However, previous studies of the outdoor learning spaces have omitted to address the young children’s perspectives on the outdoor environments that they experience as a part of the Forest School’s educational approach. Research on the subject has been mostly restricted to an adult perspective. Furthermore, the previously published studies are limited to Scandinavian countries and available in Scandinavian languages and, therefore, not easily accessible to an international audience. The aim of the present dissertation project is to explore young children’s (aged 3-6 years) voices on their experience, sense-making, and understanding of the educational space of a forest. A qualitative research paradigm was employed to explore the components that characterize children’s perception of the outdoor educational space. Ethnographic research methods (participants observation, informal conversation and material collection) were used to investigate children’s outdoor activities performed in two Italian preschools: a kindergarten outdoor oriented school and a Forest School. The collected materials (fieldnotes, interviews, and children’s drawings) were processed using a six-steps Thematic Analysis with the aim to gain a complex account of the data. The results indicate that the way children use, interact and, confer a meaning to their experience in the woods are represented by the following themes: Type of Place Attended, Nature Engagement, Relationship with the Woods, Responsibility and Risk, Imagination, Emotional Responses, Affordances, Relationships with Others, Discovery and Experimentation, Nature Education, Concerns for Nature, and Learnings Connected to the Curriculum.These results have provided a deeper insight on the children’s experience of the outdoor learning space of a forest. Moreover, the empirical findings in this study contributed to provide a new understanding of how children bond with the natural world and how they behave and experience it. Taking into account the exploratory nature of the present thesis, future research should further address the children’s perspectives on the outdoor education space, the forest. Furthermore, it would be interesting to investigate if the cognitive, emotional, and social resources and environmental attitudes developed by children in the forest as outdoor educational space are strictly intertwined with this particular environment or if they can be realized in more a conventional school setting.
