O objeto de investigaÃÃo desta pesquisa està organicamente vinculado Ãs atuais configuraÃÃes sociais e culturais do Brasil contemporÃneo marcado por transformaÃÃes decorrentes da busca de uma educaÃÃo pÃblica melhor. Aponta como ponto chave de anÃlise do fenÃmeno investigativo, o contexto histÃrico de efervescÃncia de polÃticas que superem a educaÃÃo bancÃria criticada por Paulo freire, marcado fortemente por uma confluÃncia entre o projeto participativo e o projeto de ajuste estrutural. Tem o propÃsito de compartilhar com as instituiÃÃes escolares, algumas reflexÃes e conclusÃes sobre os mecanismos de implantaÃÃo da horta escolar, enquanto espaÃo de aprendizagem, nas escolas pÃblicas, bem como identificar os avanÃos, limites e possibilidades dessa caminhada que contaram com a efetiva participaÃÃo de representantes dos segmentos envolvidos pais, alunos, professores, funcionÃrios e nÃcleo gestor da escola, proporcionando o desenvolvimento de uma pedagogia de participaÃÃo com prÃticas inovadoras nas relaÃÃes intra-escola e, desta com a comunidade. O procedimento metodolÃgico compreendeu estudos bibliogrÃficos, documentais e pesquisa de campo de natureza qualitativa no sentido do conhecimento da experiÃncia social dos diversos sujeitos inseridos na implementaÃÃo da horta escolar na escola pÃblica. O resultado da investigaÃÃo empÃrica realizada em duas hortas escolares de escolas pÃblicas no municÃpio de Fortaleza revela que a aprendizagem mediada pela interdisciplinaridade, pela motivaÃÃo, pela contextualizaÃÃo, pela problematizaÃÃo e pelo diÃlogo se faz com participaÃÃo de todos e muita dedicaÃÃo. As hortas escolares por sua vez, sÃo espaÃos hÃbridos e dinÃmicos, promovendo uma aprendizagem significativa e capaz de superar a lÃgica da educaÃÃo bancÃria, formando cidadÃo crÃticos e reflexivos, dentro de um contexto freiriano. A partir das experiÃncias vividas no espaÃo didÃtico da horta escolar, organizamos um blog, o produto educativo de nossa pesquisa, disponibilizando relatos vividos por professores, alunos, coordenadores, monitores e diretor da escola Y. Tal ferramenta auxiliarà na conduÃÃo e implantaÃÃo de hortas escolares em outras instituiÃÃes de ensino. / This work has as focus to analizes vegetables gardens in school like some tool to learn in the public school, having as bases interdisciplinarity, in context, in dialog, in motivation and in the problematization. The subject of investigation of this search is organically linked to the social and cultural actual configurations in contemporany Brazil marked by transformations come from the seek of a better public education. It shows as key point of analisys from investigative fenomenum, the historic context of efervecency of politics that overcomes the bank education critisized by Paulo Freire, strongly marked by a confluency between the participative project and the project of estructural adjust. It has the propose of share with institutions school, some reflexions and conclusions about mechanisms of implementation of the school vegetables gardens while place to learn, in public schools, as well as identify the overcomes, limities, possibilities from this purpose that was helped by the efective participation of representants from envolved people. Segments, parents, students, teachers, employees and nÃcleus manager from school, promoting the development of a participation pedagogy using innovative practical in relations intra-school and, from this with community. The methodologic procedure compreenhended bibliographic studies, documments and searches of fields in qualitative nature in the meaning of knowledge of social experience from several subjecties into the garden vegetables implementation in public school. The result of empiric investigation realized in two garden vegetables schools in public schools in Fortaleza city shows that the learning leaded by the interdisciplinarity, by motivation, by contextualization, by problematization and by dialog can be made with the participation of everybody and dedication. The school vegetables gardens by their turn, are hibrid dynamic places, promoting the significative knowledge and capable of overcome the logic of bank education , forming critics citizen and reflexives, into a freiriano context. From experiences lived in didatic space of the vegetable garden, we organized a blog, the learning product o four research, we show lived situations by teachers, students, coordenators, monitors and by manager of Y school . This tool will improve us to lead the process of implementation of vegetable gardens in another learning institutions.

Neste projeto pretendo realizar séries de desenhos, gravuras e pinturas tendo o jardim como tema central. Para realizá-lo, buscarei referências em minhas memórias pessoais, particularmente as relacionadas com o pequeno jardim da casa de subúrbio de minha infância, e nos jardins concebidos por poetas e artistas, no que possam ter de pequenos, modestos, delicados e instáveis. Esta impermanência ou efemeridade inerente a este tema será refletida durante a invenção e feitura das obras, através da exploração da instabilidade, dos possíveis limites e fronteiras, passagens e caminhos, afastamentos e aproximações entre a pintura, o desenho e a gravura. / In this project, I intend to perform series of drawings, prints and paintings with the garden as the central theme. To accomplish it, I will look for references in my personal memories, particularly those related to the small garden of the suburban house of my childhood, and in the gardens designed by poets and artists, in what they may have of small, modest, delicate and unstable. This impermanence or ephemerality inherent at this theme will be reflected during the invention and production of the works, through the exploration of the instability and of the possible limits and borders, passages and paths, separations and approximations between painting, drawing and printmaking.

ABSTRACT Botanic Garden User Outcomes: A Means-End Investigation Christopher Lee Wassenberg This study explored the outcomes that Leaning Pine Arboretum users experience from visiting the botanic garden. Understanding visitor motivations and benefits has been a focus in the field of outdoor recreation, and the subject of a number of botanic garden and green space visitor studies. Previous studies have found that visiting a botanic garden can serve as a coping strategy for dealing with and reducing life stress (Holbrook, 2010; Kohlleppel, Bradley, & Jacob, 2002; Maller, Townsend, Pryor, Brown, & St Leger, 2005) and that visiting public outdoor green spaces led visitors to experience greater exposure to natural spaces and to have meaningful experiences with others (Burgess, Harrison, & Limb, 1988). This study employed means-end theory (Gutman, 1982) to investigate the link between garden attributes and user outcomes. In-person interviews were conducted with 83 garden visitors during the summer of 2011. Researchers coded the interview data to identify participants’ reported attributes, consequences, and values. Intercoder reliability was conducted to ensure validity of the results. Coded data were entered into the Laddermap (Gengler & Reynolds, 1995) computer software program to be analyzed. Implication matrixes were created to determine the number of times concepts were linked. From the implication matrixes, hierarchical value maps (HVMs) were developed to display the results graphically. HVMs show the strength of links between attributes, consequences, and values, and were used to compare results from different visitor groups within the study. These groups included males and females, students and non-students, and first time and return visitors. The findings revealed that participants felt that the botanic garden and plants were the most meaningful garden attributes. These garden attributes led participants to experience the consequences new experiences and learning stress and relief and relaxation. Having experienced these meaningful consequences allowed participants to reach the most frequently mentioned values: transference and improved quality of life. The study found important links between attributes, consequences, and values, including the consequences escape and stress relief and relaxation, and the consequence new experiences and learning, and the value transference. Important differences were also found between the attribute, consequence, and value chains of multiple visitor groups. Botanical garden and arboretum mangers may use this study to improve visitor experiences and outcomes. A better understanding of visitor benefits and outcomes can help managers understand the needs of current visitors, potential visitors, and potential garden supporters. In turn, garden visitors who have better experiences may be more inclined to provide funding or other support to conserve and preserve their local gardens. Based on the results garden managers should maintain a broad range of healthy, well-displayed plants; exert high-levels of detail to all aspects of garden operations; continue to provide opportunities for full visitor immersion; and offer unified, accessible interpretation of garden spaces and plants. Additionally, these results may be used to validate funding requests and guide allocation of funding. Keywords: Botanic garden users, outcomes, means-end theory, Leaning Pine Arboretum

This dissertation expands upon previous analyses of the social functions of Pompeian domestic architecture by articulating the essential role of the peristyle garden in communicating the status of the homeowner while structuring the interactions of residents and visitors with the art and architecture both of the peristyle itself and with the house as a whole. Peristyles provided light, air, and circulation space for the home, but their aesthetic function was just as significant; embellished with painting, sculpture, fountains, and plants, peristyles were important centers of display. Although typically the largest and most lavishly decorated architectural space in a Pompeian house, the peristyle is often treated summarily in studies of Pompeian domestic architecture. This study fills a lacuna in scholarship, examining the architecture of peristyles in conjunction with the paintings, sculptural ensembles, and other features that adorned them. This synthetic approach to the material remains allows for an examination of peristyles as lived spaces rather than as collections of disparate decorative elements. The dissertation is divided into four chapters, each focusing on a specific problem related to the design and function of peristyles. The first chapter presents the characteristic architectural and decorative features of true, or fully colonnaded, peristyles in Pompeian houses. The second chapter consists of two case studies of true peristyles that demonstrate the role and function of the true peristyle within the Pompeian house. These case studies articulate the function of the peristyle relating to issues of status, access, and display in the House of the Vettii (VI.15.I) and the House of the Lovers (I.10.11). The third chapter addresses the architectural and decorative features of truncated peristyles, or those that are not fully colonnaded. This chapter also addresses differences in size, architecture, and decoration between true and truncated peristyles. The fourth chapter uses the truncated peristyles of the House of Marcus Lucretius (IX.3.5) and House of the Vettii (VI.15.1) as case studies to assess the various roles of truncated peristyles within the domestic setting. Together, these chapters bring about a more complete understanding of the social and aesthetic function of Pompeian residences and how domestic art and architecture shaped the experience of the viewer, enhanced the prestige of the owner, and affirmed social hierarchy.

Botanic gardens worldwide are asked to be centers of conservation. However, little is written about conservation-specific planning and design forms botanic gardens should use to fulfill this assignment. After looking at the history of botanic gardens, with a focus on the purpose/design relationship, examining design guidelines suggested in and inferred from the literature, and presenting habitat conservation principles and sustainable construction guidelines from other areas of practice, the author developed conservation design guidelines for botanic gardens focused on conservation. The guidelines address the following five categories: (1) Mission Statement and Site Character, (2) Presentation of Native Habitats, (3) Presentation of Native Plants in Man-made Landscapes, (4) Sustainable Practices in Daily Operations, and (5) Educational Components. To illustrate the guidelines, they were applied in a hypothetical, conceptual redesign of the Belize Botanic Gardens, located near San Ignacio, Belize.

Text in Afrikaans, with abstracts in Afrikaans, English and Xhosa / Dissipline in skole en leerders se uitslae het sedert 1994 baie verswak. Aanranding op opvoeders haal daagliks die nuus wat 'n swak beeld van die stand van onderwys in Suid-Afrika die wêreld instuur. Hierdie studie het die rol wat die skoolbestuurspanne kan doen om 'n effektiewe dissiplinebeleid in plek kan stel ten einde die gedrag van die leerders te verbeter, ondersoek. Die studie het bevind dat die skole dissiplinebeleide aangekoop het wat deur 'n eksterne maatskappy saamgestel is. Die opvoeders, ouers en leerders het geen aandeel in hierdie beleid nie en daarom neem hulle nie eienaarskap daarvan nie. Dit het ook aan die lig gekom dat die opvoeders verskillende metodes, sommige selfs onwettig, gebruik om leerders te straf. Hulle fokus op straf in plaas daarvan om die gedrag van die leerders te herstel. Die studie doen aanbevelings oor wat die skoolbestuurspan kan doen en gee riglyne vir die opstel van 'n effektiewe dissiplinebeleid. / The systemic test results shows that since 1994, discipline in schools and amongst learners has drastically deteriorated. Assaults on educators on a daily basis reach the news, which leaves a bad image to the world on the state of education in South Africa. This study investigates the role that school management teams can play to put an effective discipline policy in place to improve the behaviour of learners. The study found that schools have acquired policies on school discipline that were developed by an external company. Educators, learners and parents were not involved in the development thereof and for this reason they do not take ownership of it. It has come to light that educators use different methods, sometimes even unethical and illegal, to discipline learners. They focus on discipline (punitive) instead of trying to correct the behaviour of the learner (remedial). The study gives recommendations on what school management teams can do with guidelines on how to develop an effective discipline policy. / Iziphumo zibonisa ukuba ukususela ngo-1994 ukuqeqeshwa ezikolweni kwaye abafundi baye bahlaselwa kakhulu. Ukuhlaselwa kootitshala kwimihla ngemihla kufikelela kwiindaba ezishiya umfanekiso ombi kwihlabathi kwimfundo eMzantsi Afrika.Olu pho nonongo luphanda iqela lokulawula isikolo lingalidlala ukubeka umgaqo-nkqubo osebenzayo wokuphucula ukuziphatha kwabafundi. Olu pho nonongo luye lwabonisa ukuba izikolo zifumene imigaqo-nkqubo yokuqeqeshwa kwesikolo eyenziwe yinkampani yangaphandle. Ootitshala, abafundi nabazali abazange bathathe inxaxheba ekuphuhlisweni kwayo ngenxa yeso sizathu abakhange bawuthathe ubunini bayo. Kwaye kwacaca ukuba ootitshala basebenzisa iindlela ezihlukeneyo, ngamanye amaxesha nangona zingekho mthethweni, ekuqeqeshweni labafundi. Zijolise ekuqeqesheni (isigwebo) endaweni yokuzama ukulungisa ukuziphatha komfundi (ukulungiswa).Uphononongo unikeza iingcomo malunga naziphi iikomiti zolawulo lwesikolo ezinokukwenza nezikhokelo malunga nokuphuhlisa umgaqo-nkqubo osebenzayo. / Educational Management and Leadership / M.

安德魯˙馬維爾的詩中經常出現花園，這一特殊的藝術形式為自然與工藝的結合。關於園藝對自然的影響，馬維爾的看法一直以來被視為相當矛盾的。為了釐清馬維爾以何標準去判定園丁是破壞自然，還是修復自然，本論文擬以十七世紀關於園藝的文章，去探究馬維爾在《花園》、《鋤草者對上花園》和《論艾波頓莊園》詩中對於園藝對自然的影響的看法。 本論文共分為四章，第一章回顧評論，以及整理十七世紀關於園藝的文章中所呈現的議題。第二章討論《鋤草者對上花園》詩中鋤草者如何批評園藝，並闡明鋤草者在批評園藝時，是否反對工藝家改變自然和扮演上帝的角色。第三章討論《花園》和《論艾波頓莊園》詩中馬維爾如何讚美園藝，並闡明馬維爾在讚美園藝時，是否提倡工藝家應整理自然並重建樂園。最後，第四章總結全文，結合鋤草者和馬維爾對園藝的看法，並加以衍伸評論馬維爾對於工藝對自然的影響的整體看法。本文希望藉由探討馬維爾在《花園》、《鋤草者對上花園》和《論艾波頓莊園》詩中對於園藝對自然的影響的看法，能夠證明馬維爾對於工藝對自然的影響的看法並不矛盾。 / The garden, as a distinctive type of architectural art based upon nature, recurs in Andrew Marvell’s poetry and Marvell’s attitude toward the influence of art on nature in the garden has been considered quite ambivalent. To clarify how Marvell decides whether the gardener is impairing or repairing nature, this thesis proposes to study the influences of gardening on nature in “The Garden,” “The Mower Against Gardens,” and “Upon Appleton House” by examining how the gardener’s tasks in the poems are interpreted in the seventeenth-century treatises on horticulture. This thesis consists of four chapters. Chapter One reviews critical opinions and introduces the seventeenth-century treatises on horticulture that we will consult. Chapter Two concentrates on the Mower’s criticism of gardening in “The Mower Against Gardens.” In this chapter, we will examine the gardener’s tasks and explore whether artists should change nature and imitate God in the Mower’s view. Chapter Three concentrates on Marvell’s admiration for gardening in “The Garden” and “Upon Appleton House.” In this chapter, we will examine the gardener’s tasks and explore whether artists should organize nature and recreate paradise in Marvell’s view. Finally, the last chapter will conclude by showing how the Mower’s opinions and Marvell’s opinions about gardening complement each other, and commenting on Marvell’s attitude toward the influence of art on nature in general. It is hoped that an exploration of the influences of gardening on nature in “The Garden,” “The Mower Against Gardens,” and “Upon Appleton House” will clarify Marvell’s attitude toward gardening as well as his attitude toward art and nature and show that Marvell’s attitude is not as ambivalent as it appears.
