It also analyzed how the subjects of the research, who participate or participated in continuing education, perceive training in their professional performance. Continuing education is an important aspect of education, inserted in the pedagogical and administrative dimensions. Pedagogical, because we understand that continuing education is a process of continuous teaching and learning. It means a relationship in which the teachers are in the permanent condition of apprentices and the school as locus for the socialization of the knowledge hitherto produced. Administrative, because it is only effective through recognition of the need for such training for quality education. Understanding this need as a right to quality education, continuing education must be standardized and operationalized by the State, even if society has contributed to its planning. How is the Continuing Education Policy of High School Teachers in the state of Tocantins and what are the consequences of this policy in the appreciation of the teacher? The reflections were theoretically provided in official documents and researchers such as Brzezinski (2017), Frigotto; Ciavatta; Ramos (2005), Gatti (2008), Gentili (2001), Gil (2002), Gramsci (2006), Gruppi (1996), Ianni (1996), Konder (2002), Kuenzer (2002), Marx; Engels (2007) and Mesquita (2014), among others. The methodological path employed is anchored in dialectical historical materialism, so the study was carried out in qualitative and quantitative methodological research. The following procedures were defined: analysis of official documents, legislation, theoretical reference and questionnaires applied to the subjects of the research, which totaled 65 (sixty-five). These subjects work in 5 (five) municipalities of Tocantins, they are: Ananás, Araguanã, Babaçulândia, Barra do Ouro and Wanderlândia. It is observed in the teachers' statements that one of the characteristics that they find important in the continuous formations is the exchange of experiences and suggestions, reflecting on the contributions of the learning process experienced by each one. The data evidences the need for a renewal in the elaboration of the public policies of continuing education of teachers, especially of the High School, who need a better attention. The state of Tocantins is still focused on a process of formation for secondary education linked to the actions of the federal government. Professional appraisal policies also require an investment in a public tender for teachers, so that professionals can access the achievements of the Tocantins State's Position, Careers and Compensation Plan (PCCR), which until now is serving only to effective teachers, which in this research correspond to 31% of the subjects interviewed. / A presente dissertação tem por objetivo estudar a política de formação continuada no estado do Tocantins para os professores do Ensino Médio, no período compreendido entre os anos 2011 a 2015. Também analisou como os sujeitos da pesquisa, que participam ou participaram de formação continuada, percebem essa formação na sua atuação profissional. A formação continuada se constitui em um importante aspecto da educação, inserida nas dimensões pedagógica e administrativa. Pedagógica, porque entendemos que a formação continuada é um processo de ensino e aprendizagem contínuo. Significa uma relação em que os docentes estão na permanente condição de aprendizes e a escola como lócus para a socialização do conhecimento até então produzido. Administrativa, porque ela só se efetiva por meio de um reconhecimento da necessidade dessa formação para uma educação de qualidade. Compreendendo essa necessidade enquanto direito à educação de qualidade, a formação continuada deve ser normatizada e operacionalizada pelo Estado, mesmo que a sociedade tenha contribuído para a sua planificação. Como se dá a Política de Formação Continuada dos Professores do Ensino Médio no estado do Tocantins e quais os desdobramentos dessa política na valorização do professor? As reflexões realizadas foram aportadas, teoricamente, em documentos oficiais e pesquisadores como Brzezinski (2017), Frigotto; Ciavatta; Ramos (2005), Gatti (2008), Gentili (2001), Gil (2002), Gramsci (2006), Gruppi (1996), Ianni (1996), Konder (2002), Kuenzer (2002), Marx; Engels (2007) e Mesquita (2014), dentre outros. O caminho metodológico empregado se ancora no materialismo histórico dialético, assim, o estudo foi realizado na pesquisa metodológica qualitativa e quantitativa. Definiram-se os seguintes procedimentos: análise de documentos oficiais, legislação, referencial teórico e questionários aplicados aos sujeitos da pesquisa, que totalizaram 65 (sessenta e cinco). Esses sujeitos trabalham em 5 (cinco) municípios do Tocantins, são eles: Ananás, Araguanã, Babaçulândia, Barra do Ouro e Wanderlândia. Observa-se nas falas dos professores que uma das características que eles acham importante nas formações continuadas é a troca de experiências e sugestões, refletindo sobre as contribuições do processo de aprendizagem vivenciado por cada um. Os dados evidenciam a necessidade de uma renovação na elaboração das políticas públicas de formação continuada de professores, principalmente do Ensino Médio, que carecem de uma melhor atenção. O estado do Tocantins ainda está voltado a um processo de formação para o Ensino Médio atrelado às ações do governo federal. As políticas de valorização profissional precisam também de um investimento em concurso público para professores, pois assim os profissionais poderão ter acesso às conquistas existentes no Plano de Cargos, Carreiras e Remuneração (PCCR) do estado de Tocantins, que até o presente momento está atendendo apenas aos professores efetivos, que nesta pesquisa correspondem a 31% dos sujeitos entrevistados.

Research exists about secondary school Response to Intervention (RTI) models, but little is known about the concerns of middle and high school teachers who are working together to implement RTI practices as a shared responsibility. The extensive body of documentation on RTI at the elementary level has not helped educators develop systematic RTI implementation practices across all levels (Ehren, 2013). The purpose of this quantitative study was to determine whether there were differences in practice concerns, if any among middle school and high school teachers' RTI practice concerns when measured by the Impact Stage of the Stages of Concern Questionnaire (SoCQ). The theory of planned behavior informed the framework for this research. A Snowball Sampling strategy was used to recruit a total of 31 general education teachers from a Northeastern USA County. Data from teacher's SoCQ were analyzed using ANOVA to investigate the differences in concerns, if any between middle school teachers in Grades 6-8 and high school teachers in Grades 9-12 about RTI practices. The results indicated no differences between 6-8 and 9-12 grade teacher concerns for all questions. Findings from this research may reinforce the importance of discussions about sharing RTI practice concerns between middle and high school teachers. Such conversations may foster more collaborative teacher working relationships which may lead to better implementation of the RTI initiative across grade levels for improved student learning outcomes.

The study is finalized at purpose practical suggestions based on the findings and conclusions to educational administration authorities, junior high schools, teachers, for further study and reference.

Syftet med denna avhandling är att bidra till förståelsen av hur lärares professionella utveckling kan stödjas. Detta har gjorts genom att undersöka vilka konsekvenserna blir av att lärare ser sig själva på videoinspelningar från sin egen undervisning. Resultaten som presenteras bygger på en longitudinell undersökning. I den första studien deltog lärarstudenter som gick sista terminen på folkhögskollärarprogrammet. De spelade in sin undervisning under den verksamhetsförlagda delen av utbildningen, ”praktiken” på en folkhögskola. Det som eftersöktes var vilka situationer som överraskade lärarstudenterna när de sedan såg sig själva på film. De skrev ner sina reflektioner och resultatet visade att överraskningarna handlade om bristen på lyhördhet i relation till deltagarna. De formulerade också tankar om hur de skulle vilja agera i klassrummet. I den uppföljande studien spelade några av dessa personer, som nu varit verksamma folkhögskollärare i två år efter avslutad utbildning, återigen in en av sina lektioner. Denna gång beskrev lärarna att de på filmen såg att de hade förändrat eller utvecklat sina handlingsvanor till ett mer deltagarorienterat förhållningssätt. De beskrev också att de agerade på ett mer professionellt sätt. Den teori som legat till grund för analysen har sin grund i ett pragmatiskt synsätt på lärande. Från symbolisk interaktionism har begreppen ”I” och ”me” använts, och för att i det här fallet undersöka den professionella aspekten av ”me” har begreppet ”professionalme” prövats. / The aim of the thesis is to contribute to the understanding of how teacher’s professional development can be supported. What have been investigated are the consequences that result from teachers watching video recordings from their own teaching. The results presented are based on a longitudinal investigation. In the first study, student teachers from the last semester of the folk high school teacher program participated. They recorded their teaching during the school-based part of the program, the practicum at a folk high school. What were investigated were situations that surprised the student teachers when they saw themselves on the video recording. They wrote down their reflections and the result showed that the surprises were about their lack of responsiveness in relation to the participants. The student teachers also formulated ideas about how they would act in the classroom. In the follow-up study, some of these teachers, who now had been working as graduated folk high school teachers for two years, once again video recorded one of their lessons. This time the teachers described in interviews that they, on the video recording, could see that they had changed or developed their habits to a more participatory approach. They also described that they acted in a more professional manner. The theory underlying the analysis is based on a pragmatic theory of learning. From symbolic interactionism, the concepts of "I" and "me" have been used, and in this case, to examine the professional aspect of "me", the concept of "professional-me" has been used.

The purpose of this study was the design of a curricular model for the undergraduate preparation of Texas high school coaches. The model was based on the perceptions of Texas coaches concerning the adequacy of their professional preparation. The issue of a state certification for coaching was also examined.

Syftet med denna kvalitativa studie är att bidra med kunskaper om gymnasielärares subjektiva upplevelser av omställningen till distansarbete, i och med Coronakrisen, samt bringa kunskaper om omställningens påverkan på arbetslivsbalansen samt välbefinnandet. För att möjliggöra besvarande av studiens forskningsfrågor valde vi intervju som datainsamlingsmetod. Sju gymnasielärare med olika undervisningsämnen, olika kön och olika åldrar som arbetar på fyra olika gymnasieskolor i Sverige valde att delta i studien. De semistrukturerade intervjuerna tillhandahöll oss kunskaper om gymnasielärarnas upplevelser av omställningen till distansarbete samt hur det påverkar gymnasielärarnas arbetslivsbalans och välbefinnande. Det empiriska materialet som först analyserades med hjälp av en tematisk analysmetod analyserades sedan mot bakgrund av JD-R-modellen (Bakker & Demeroutis, 2017) samt Gränsteori (Clark, 2000). Resultaten visade på att de förändrade kraven vid distansundervisning upplevdes som både utmanande och hindrande. Vissa ansåg att omställningen fört med sig fördelar såsom en ökad kontroll och förbättrat välbefinnande medan andra upplevde att det fört med sig negativa aspekter gällande dess motivation och arbetsglädje. Gemensamt var upplevelsen av avsaknad av socialt stöd samt avsaknad av feedback från eleverna. Vidare, visade resultatet på att gränsdragning mellan arbetsliv och privatliv, anses av respondenterna, som mer eller mindre relevant. Resultatet visade förekomsten av en del konkreta strategier för att skapa balans, om än balansen ansågs uppstå naturligt på grund av familjeförhållanden i privatlivet såsom barn som kräver full uppmärksamhet. I syfte att utöka sina resurser samt öka arbetsglädjen och välbefinnandet använde sig många respondenter av så kallat job crafting, genom att omforma sitt arbete. En framgångsfaktor för ökat välbefinnande visade sig vara en balans mellan krav och resurser. / The aim of this qualitative study is to contribute with knowledge of high school teachers' subjective experiences of the transition to distance work, during the Corona crisis, and to bring knowledge about the impact of the transition on the teachers’ work-life balance and well-being. To enable answering the study's research questions, we chose interviews as data collection method. Seven high school teachers with different subjects, different sexes, and different ages who work at four different high schools in Sweden chose to participate in the study. The semi-structured interviews provided us with knowledge about the experiences of high school teachers regarding the transition to distance work and how it affects their work- life balance and well-being. The empirical material was analyzed using a thematic method of analysis and then analyzed in the light of the JD-R model (Bakker & Demeroutis, 2017) and Boundary Theory (Clark, 2000). The results showed that the changed requirements in distance education were perceived as both challenging and hindering. Some considered that the transition resulted in benefits such as increased control and improved well-being, while others felt that it resulted in negative aspects regarding motivation and job satisfaction. One common experience was a lack of social support and a lack of feedback from the students. Furthermore, the results regarding the boundary between work and private life, are considered by the respondents as more or less relevant. The result showed the existence of some concrete strategies for creating balance, although the balance was considered to occur naturally as a result of family relationships in private life, for example children who require full attention. In order to increase their resources as well as increase job satisfaction and well- being, many respondents used so-called job crafting, by reshaping their work. A success factor for increased well-being turned out to be balance between demands and resources.

Studiens syfte är att analysera hur tre bildlärare på högstadiet bedriver sin bildundervisning av nyanlända elever som ännu inte till fullo behärskar svenska språket. Frågeställningarna innefattar olika strategier i bildundervisningen samt vilka problem och möjligheter lärarna upplever i en undervisning utan gemensamt talat språk. Studien innefattar tre semistrukturerade intervjuer – två muntliga och en skriftlig. Resultatet visar att samtliga lärare hade utarbetat och var i färd att utveckla en mängd olika strategier. Bildämnets multimodala resurser och de nyanlända elevernas flerspråkighet var centrala strategier för att överbrygga språkbarriären och skapa förståelse i ämnet. Främst två av lärarna ville även vidareutveckla undervisningen genom utökat kollegialt samarbete. Problemen lärarna uppfattade handlade till stor del om tidsbrist.  För att främja de nyanlända elevernas lärandesituation behövde exempelvis en av lärarna mer tid tillsammans med dem innan de började i ordinarie bildundervisning. Lärarna nämnde många möjligheter angående bildämnets resurser som medel för förståelse, samt möjligheter med att använda elevernas starkaste språk vid bedömning av teoretiska delar. / The purpose of the study is to analyze how three high school art teachers educate newly arrived pupils who do not fully understand the Swedish language. The issues contain how the teachers work with certain strategies and what kind of problems and possibilities they perceive when teaching without a common spoken language. The study includes three semi structured interviews – two oral and one written. The results illustrate that all of the teachers had developed, and were in the process of developing, a variety of strategies. Central strategies in creating understanding were multimodal resources specific for the art subject, and the newly arrived pupils’ multilingualism. Mainly two of the teachers wanted to develop their education further through expanded collegiate corporation. The problems that the teachers perceived mainly had to do with lack of time. To better support the newly arrived pupils’ learning situation the teachers needed more time together with the pupils, before they entered the ordinary classes. The teachers mentioned several possibilities concerning the art subjects’ resources as tools in understanding each other. They also emphasized the possibilities of using the pupils’ strongest language in the matter of theoretical assessment.

The purpose of this qualitative study is to investigate how social science teachers perceive and express the concept of society in social studies. The study consists of focus group interviews with nine social science teachers at two upper secondary schools and its results are analyzed against the theoretical backdrop of Odenstad's orientation topics, analytical subjects and discussion topics and Sandahl’s first-order and second-order concepts. In short, the two different conceptual devices can be described as the skills and abilities that are most important for the students to master in order to develop advanced thinking skills in social science. Particular emphasis is put on critical thinking, that is, the ability to seek, structure and evaluate information from different sources and to draw conclusions from this process. The emerging results show a certain consensus on the concept of society among social science teachers as the potential subject of study and analysis that would simplify and clarify the analyses of the different levels in society which, in turn, would contribute to adding significance and bringing cohesion to the subject as a whole. As for the skills and abilities that stem from Odenstad's orientation topics and Sandahl’s first-order concepts, the interviewed teachers all emphasize conceptual ability as well as good external knowledge to have knowledge of how society is made up. With reference to Odenstad's analytical subject and discussion topics and Sandahl's second-order concepts, it would seem that it is not only important but a prerequisite that students develop an analytical ability and critical thinking as well as the ability to sift through and process large amounts of information and assume different perspectives on the topic or issue at hand.

Trots att kunskapsområdet EU har en större plats i både grundskolans och gymnasieskolans styrdokument idag har brister i EU- undervisningen uppdagats. Eleverna ges inte tillräckliga kunskaper och går ur gymnasiet med bristande förståelse för EU och sin egen roll som EU- medborgare. Detta väcker frågor kring hur undervisningen om EU ser ut på högstadiet och gymnasiet samt om en kunskapsprogression möjliggörs.Syftet med denna studie är att belysa högstadielärares och gymnasielärares tankar och beskrivning av sin undervisning om EU, för att analysera om deras undervisning möjliggör en progression för elevernas EU-kunskaper. För att möjliggöra en sådan studie har undersökningen genomförts genom kvalitativa intervjuer av fyra högstadielärare och fyra gymnasielärare som alla undervisar i ämnet Samhällskunskap.Studien har utgått från antagandet att undervisningen om EU och kunskapsprogressionen inte är tillräcklig, vilket till viss del bekräftas av studiens resultat. Resultatet visade aspekter som tyder på en likartad undervisning på bägge skolstadier och som därför inte anses leda till en progression. Samtidigt uppmärksammas delar i undervisningen på gymnasiet som tyder på en fördjupning av tidigare tillägnade kunskaper och som därför gynnar en kunskapsprogression, och även faktorer som kan vara anledningar till att kunskapsprogressionen försvåras; så som tidsbrist, stoffträngsel och ointresse hos elever och lärare. Studien visar att antagandet om brister i EU- undervisningen och ett visst missgynnande av kunskapsprogression stämmer men att det också finns möjliga förklaringar till detta. / Despite the fact that knowledge regarding EU plays a larger role today in both steering documents for secondary school and high school has imperfections been identified. The students are not given enough knowledge and finish high school with a lack of understanding of EU and their own role as citizens in EU. This raises questions regarding how the education of the subject is managed in secondary and high school and also if a knowledge progression is made possible.The purpose of this study is to put a light on the thoughts of teachers in secondary- and high schools about their EU education to be able to analyze if their teaching makes a progression of the students’ knowledge possible regarding their knowledge of EU. To make such a study possible the survey was conducted through qualitative interviews of four social science teachers in secondary school and four social science teachers in high school have been made.The study was been based on the assumption that education about EU is lacking and that knowledge progression is not adequate which to a part is proved by the result of the study. The result showed a similar education in both stages which therefore doesn’t point to a knowledge progression. At the same time parts of the education in high school indicates a deepened study of different knowledge areas studied in secondary school which therefore favors knowledge progression, but at the same time progression can be reduced by identified factors like lack of time, “overcrowded” subject areas and lack of interest from both students and teachers. The study shows that the assumption that imperfections exists in EU education and that a degree of limited knowledge progression is true, but it also shows that there are possible explanations to why this may be.
