A dissertação compreendeu dois estudos sobre jovens dos 16 aos 25 anos em situação de reclusão em Maputo, Moçambique. O Estudo 1 foi documental e descreveu as características biossociodemográficas dos jovens. O Estudo 2 integrou seis participantes e investigou as motivações do comportamento infractor e as perspectivas após o cumprimento da pena. No Estudo 1 foram analisadas informações de 172 “Certidões de Sentença e Liquidação da Pena” arquivadas entre 2009 a 2011 em três penitenciárias. Usou-se o delineamento quantitativo, com base em estatísticas descritivas e testes estatísticos. Constatou-se que maior parte dos jovens era do sexo masculino. Os jovens praticaram em grande escala crimes contra a propriedade, com destaque para os homens. A prevalência de mulheres verificou-se nos crimes contra a integridade física e a saúde das pessoas. Registou-se um aumento do número de jovens condenados à medida que se progredia nas faixas etárias. Parte significativa dos jovens cumpriu penas correccionais, era condenada pela primeira vez, não tinha ocupação ou trabalhava no sector informal, e provinha dos bairros suburbanos da cidade de Maputo. O Estudo 2 foi qualitativo e analisou o conteúdo das entrevistas de seis jovens reclusos. Destes, quatro eram do sexo masculino e duas do sexo feminino. Os resultados indicaram que o cometimento dos crimes esteve relacionado à satisfação de necessidades básicas de sobrevivência no contexto das limitações socioeconómicas e afectivas vividas no momento. Os jovens mostraram interesse em reintegrarem-se à sociedade e desenvolverem projectos pessoais. Estes resultados sugerem a necessidade de implementação de programas estruturados de acompanhamento psicossocial no período posterior ao cumprimento da pena. / The dissertation consisted of two studies on youth 16 to 25 years in reclusion situation in Maputo, Mozambique.The Study 1 was documentary and described the biosociodemographic characteristics of these youth. In the Study 2 participated six youth and it was investigated the reasons for their delinquent behavior and their prospects after serving the sentence. In the Study 1 were analyzed information from 172 "Certificates of Award and Liquidation of Penalty" filed between 2009 to 2011 in three prisons. It was utilized the quantitative design, based on descriptive statistics and statistical tests. It was found that most youth were male. The crimes against property were committed in large scale, especially by male. The prevalence of women was found in crimes against physical integrity and health of people. It was observed that the number of youth offenders increased as they progressed in the age. Furthermore, significant proportion of youth fulfilled correctional sentences, were convicted for the first time, had no occupation or worked in the informal sector, and came from the suburban neighborhoods of Maputo. The Study 2 was qualitative and analyzed the content of the interviews of six incarcerated youth. Of these, four were male and two female. The results indicated that the committing of the crimes was related to meeting basic survival needs in the context of socioeconomic and emotional limitations experienced in the moment . The youths showed an interest in reintegrate into society and to develop personal projects. These results suggest the need for implementation of structured psychosocial programs for those people after release from prison.

Interruptions to juvenile detainees' education often delay their progress toward high school completion. Implementing an individualized learning plan (ILP) has been suggested as a solution to this problem. The purpose of this case study was to explore how ILPs facilitate attainment of graduation among incarcerated youth. The study was guided by the Washington State legislative framework for individualized learning plans and the efforts of the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency to increase educational opportunities. Three research questions were formulated to explore perceptions of local juvenile detention center educators and administrators regarding their experiences in the development, implementation, and effectiveness of ILPs. Qualitative data were collected from interviews with 5 detention center educators, field observations, and document reviews. The examination of the data through the coding process using a matrix enabled descriptions and themes to emerge. Results indicated that ILPs are collaboratively developed and implemented in the detention center, there is a need for professional development related to ILPs, and ILPs have impacted students' education completion. Results from this study may influence social change by supporting development of ILPs which can result in a higher graduation rate and a reduction in recidivism among the incarcerated youth population.

nÃo hà / Todo prisioneiro deve ter a oportunidade de se beneficiar da EducaÃÃo. A educaÃÃo prisional pode prover acesso a oportunidades de aprendizagem mais amplas a fim de que o encarcerado aumente as chances de construir uma vida melhor depois de cumprir a sua pena. Por conseguinte, a reincidÃncia se torna menos provÃvel e encontrar um emprego se torna significativamente mais provÃvel. A EducaÃÃo à uma contribuiÃÃo imprescindÃvel para a ressocializaÃÃo (AGUIAR, 2012; ANDRIOLA, 2008, 2010, 2011; JULIÃO, 2009). ApÃs exaustivo levantamento do estado da arte, constatou-se a escassez de uma maior discussÃo no que concerne à avaliaÃÃo da aprendizagem na educaÃÃo prisional. Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo geral realizar uma investigaÃÃo da prÃtica de avaliaÃÃo da aprendizagem escolar de alunos privados de liberdade matriculados no Ensino MÃdio da EEFM AloÃsio Leo Arlindo Lorscheider, primeira escola de educaÃÃo em prisÃes do estado do CearÃ. Especificamente, tencionou-se: i) conhecer as concepÃÃes dos professores sobre a avaliaÃÃo da aprendizagem escolar no contexto da educaÃÃo em prisÃes; ii) descrever os procedimentos e instrumentos avaliativos utilizados pelos professores junto aos discentes encarcerados; iii) expor as dificuldades que se apresentam no cotidiano; iv) coletar sugestÃes do nÃcleo gestor, professores e alunos para a melhoria das prÃticas avaliativas no contexto do cÃrcere. Para esse propÃsito, foi realizada uma pesquisa de natureza qualitativa, realizada no Instituto Penal Feminino Desembargadora Auri Moura Costa (IPF), na forma de estudo de caso. Os instrumentos utilizados para a coleta de dados foram a entrevista semiestruturada, o questionÃrio e a anÃlise de documentos. Foi realizada uma anÃlise de conteÃdo dos dados coletados. As amostras foram intencionais e compostas por: i) 10 alunas privadas de liberdade matriculadas na modalidade EJA, na etapa do Ensino MÃdio; ii) 2 professoras que atuam no Ensino MÃdio da escola prisional; iii) 3 coordenadoras escolares e 1 diretor-geral do nÃcleo gestor, perfazendo um total de 16 sujeitos. Os resultados revelaram a necessidade de uma avaliaÃÃo com poder certificador e do uso das notas escolares para registrar a situaÃÃo da aprendizagem das alunas, bem como a formalizaÃÃo desses parÃmetros no Projeto PolÃtico-PedagÃgico da escola. AlÃm disso, urge planejar um modelo de avaliaÃÃo da aprendizagem direcionado ao contexto da sala de aula em espaÃos privativos de liberdade. As sugestÃes apontam para a importÃncia de investimento em recursos pedagÃgicos e humanos, bem como para uma formaÃÃo docente adequada. / Every prisoner has the opportunity to benefit from education. Education in prison can provide access to broader learning opportunities for prisoners to enhance their chances of building a better life after release. Therefore, they are far less likely to return to prison and significantly more likely to find employment after their release. Education is an indispensable contribution for their resocialization (AGUIAR, 2012; ANDRIOLA, 2008, 2010, 2011; JULIÃO, 2009). Nevertheless, an exhausting study of the state of the art revealed a lack of a larger discussion on the theme concerning to assessment in education in prison. The main purpose of the current research was to accomplish an investigation about the practice of assessment for incarcerated students registered in High School at EEFM AloÃsio Leo Arlindo Lorscheider, first school of education in prison in CearÃ-Brazil. Specifically, this study aimed: i) knowing the teacherâs conceptions about assessment in the context of education in prison; ii) describing the procedures and instruments of assessment used by teachers for captive students; iii) presenting the difficulties in the daily practice of assessment for imprisoned students; iv) gathering suggestions of school managers, teachers and students for the improvement of assessmentâs practice in the context of jail. Thus, a qualitative research was accomplished, as a case study, at Instituto Penal Feminino Desembargadora Auri Moura Costa (IPF). The instruments used for data collection were semi-structured interview, questionnaire and analysis of documents. A content analysis of the collected data was accomplished. The intentional samples were composed by: i) 10 incarcerated female students registered in adult education, at High School level; ii) 2 teachers of High School level at prison school; iii) 3 coordinators e 1 member of school management, 16 subjects altogether. The results revealed the need of an assessment able to certify and use grades to register the situation of students\' learning, as well as the need of development of a Political Pedagogical Project for the school. Besides, it is necessary to create a model of assessment specific for the context of classrooms in prison school. The suggestions point to the importance of investment in pedagogic and human resources as well as an appropriate teacherâs formation.

Contributions of lyric poetry to beyond the bars”: is a research that longs to contribute, through the reading and writing of lyric poetry, to the educational formation of incarcerated students These students study at a State Center of Basic Education for Young people and Adults (Centro Estadual de Educação Básica para Jovens e Adultos – CEEBJA), located in a penitentiary in Paraná. The development of this study is supported by three specific goals: i) to work the concept of literature, lyric poetry and language resources, encouraging the student to read and comprehend poetical texts; ii) to propose pedagogical practices that help the student to write and express himself through the writing of daily life poems; iii) to encourage the student to read and write poems, comprehending the writing activity as a possibility to express himself during the teaching-learning process behind the prison bars. The research was based on theoretical assumptions that point to the humanizing role that literature plays, accordingly to what is proposed by Antonio Candido (1995), giving to the student the opportunity of learning more. That will help him develop a wider perspective of the world. The theoretical support of this work was based on intellectuals such as Michel Foucault (2013), Paulo Freire (2003), Antonio Candido (1995), G. W. Friedrich Hegel (1980), Massaud Moisés (2003), Salvatore D’Onófrio (1995), Cesare Beccaria (2009). And, to support the elaboration of our Proposal of Pedagogical Expansion, we consulted the propositions of the Método Recepcional by Maria da Glória Bordini (1993) and Vera Teixeira Aguiar (1993), combined to the Reception Theory, by Hans Robert Jauss (1994) and Wolfgang Iser (1979). Therefore, this is a bibliographic qualitative research, in which the procedures were developed through a research and action method. As a result of this didactic-pedagogical process, it is possible to notice that the classroom work with lyric poetry can happen in an didactic and spontaneous way, being useful to the humanization and emancipation of the students reached by this practice. / “A escrita é livre? Contribuições da poesia lírica para além das grades”: trata-se de uma pesquisa que busca contribuir, por meio da leitura e escrita de poesia lírica, na formação educacional de alunos encarcerados. Esses alunos estudam em um Centro Estadual de Educação Básica para Jovens e Adultos – CEEBJA, localizado em uma penitenciária no Estado do Paraná. Esse estudo se propôs desenvolver três objetivos específicos: i) trabalhar a concepção de literatura, de poesia lírica e de recursos da linguagem, estimulando o aluno a ler e a compreender o texto poético; ii) propor práticas pedagógicas que auxiliem o aluno a escrever e a se expressar por meio da escrita de poemas do cotidiano; e iii) estimular o aluno a ler e a escrever poemas, compreendendo a escrita como uma forma de expressividade possível no processo de ensino-aprendizagem atrás das grades da prisão. A pesquisa se sustentou em pressupostos teóricos que apontam o papel potencializador e humanizador da literatura, segundo o entendimento de Antonio Candido (1995), trabalhado pelo viés da poesia lírica, que pode ser posta a serviço da educação, oportunizando ao aluno privado de liberdade aprender mais, tanto para si, quanto para a sua vida social. Isso o auxilia a ter uma visão mais ampla de mundo. A base teórica do trabalho foi buscada em pensadores como Michel Foucault (2013), Paulo Freire (2003), Antonio Candido (1995), G. W. Friedrich Hegel (1980), Massaud Moisés (2003), Salvatore D’Onófrio (1995), Cesare Beccaria (2009). E, para embasar a elaboração de nossa Proposta de Aplicação Didática, recorremos às proposições do Método Recepcional de Maria da Glória Bordini (1993) e Vera Teixeira Aguiar (1993), articuladas à Estética da Recepção, concebida por Hans Robert Jauss (1994) e Wolfgang Iser (1979). Trata-se, portanto, de uma pesquisa bibliográfico-qualitativa, cujos procedimentos foram desenvolvidos por meio da pesquisa-ação. Como resultado desse processo didático-pedagógico, percebemos que o trabalho em sala de aula com a poesia lírica pode ocorrer de forma didática e espontânea, servindo para a humanização e a emancipação dos alunos alcançados por essa prática.

abstract: The United States accounts for only 4% of the world’s female population, but it is home to more than 30% of the world’s incarcerated women, the majority of whom will eventually attempt a successful reentry into society. Almost half of the incarcerated women in the United States have not obtained a high school diploma or equivalency, and only 31% have attempted some college, compared to 58% among the general public (Ewert & Wildhagen, 2011). There is ample evidence of the impact of a post-secondary degree on reducing recidivism and increasing reentry success. However, the Arizona Department of Corrections reports that of the more than 40,000 people incarcerated in November of 2019, only 5,333, or 12.5%, were involved in any type of educational programming while incarcerated (2019). Few studies have looked closely at the barriers to higher education for formerly incarcerated individuals, and even fewer have focused on women. The purpose of this qualitative action research study was to examine the educational experiences of formerly incarcerated women through the lenses of critical social theory (Freeman & Vasconcelos, 2010; Freire, 1970) and possible selves theory (Markus & Nurius, 1986) in an effort to more fully understand low educational attainment in this population and use this knowledge to develop an effective, participant-informed intervention and provide recommendations for university outreach programs. Study participants were formerly incarcerated women and individuals who work with this population. Data were collected from in-depth semi-structured interviews and materials created during the College After Prison Workshop which was developed for this project. Interviews revealed that the women in this study crave a sense of belonging, feel regret over their lost possible selves, experience a fear of standing still or going backward, and have a strong desire to help others. Findings suggest that colleges and universities can support formerly incarcerated women in the post-secondary system by curating a community of scholars and demonstrating a clear path forward for formerly incarcerated women by reducing systemic barriers. / Dissertation/Thesis / Doctoral Dissertation Educational Leadership and Policy Studies 2020

Nielsen, E & Olander, S. Children visiting their incarcerated parent. Degree project in Social work 15 högskolepoäng. Malmö University: Faculty of Health and Society, Department of Social Work, 2019.The purpose of the study was to see how a children perspective looks like in the correctional institution and how it is applied when a child visit their incarcerated parent. The study was also aimed to investigate which possibilities and difficulties staff in correctional services experience in connection with visits. The purpose of the study was to get different perspectives by taking part of the staff's experiences. To answer the questions, a qualitative method was used with semi-structured interviews. The selection in the study was nine people working in the correctional institution in Sweden, with different positions of employment. The authors had personal meetings with three of the people and the remaining interviews were made by phone. As an analysis method, coding and thematization were used. The empirical data was analyzed using the Knowledge Situation and Theory. The theoretical starting points were Goffman's concept Front- and Backstage, Antonovsky’s KASAM and risk and protection factors. The results of the study showed that a children perspective exist in the correctional services, both in how the staff meets the children, but also in how the environment is adapted to children. The result also shows that the most central difficulties when children are visiting their incarcerated parent is the resignation between children and parent and that children are affected by the rules and limitations that exist in the correctional service. The opportunities that are mainly highlighted in the study are that children and incarcerated parents can have contact and that there is an opportunity to end a visit when it’s no longer for the best of the children. One conclusion is that children’s involvement is of great importance when visiting their incarcerated parent and that staff are asking for more education about meeting children in different situations. The study also highlights the benefits of sharing experiences with each other and learning from other institutions in order to reduce the difficulties that exist in the work within the correctional institution and to make children more involved.Keywords: children perspective, correctional services, difficulties, incarcerated parent, possibilities

Studies find consistently that survivors of childhood sexual abuse (CSA) are likely to suffer from depression, post-traumatic stress, and problematic substance use, and may experience also a variety of adjustment difficulties in several emotional, behavioral, and interpersonal domains. Involvement with the legal system is one such outcome to consider, especially given the increasing number of women serving time in correctional facilities with nearly two-thirds of these women being survivors of CSA (e.g., Browne, Miller, & Maguin, 1999). The current literature lacks comparisons between female survivors of CSA who have legal involvement and those who do not; hence, the current study addresses the need for a comprehensive investigation of early victimizations and later adjustment. Data were obtained from 169 female inmates and 420 female college students, a number of whom were survivors of CSA (66% and 35.5%, respectively), so that group differences could be examined and relationships among family environment, abuse disclosure history, coping, perceived social support, adjustment (i.e., trauma symptoms, substance abuse, depressive symptomatology, revictimization), and criminal history could be explored. Results suggested that inmate survivors experience poorer functioning overall relative to student survivors of CSA, including more depressive symptoms, trauma symptoms, and substance abuse. Further, avoidance coping by using substances mediated fully the relationship between trauma symptoms and substance abuse for both groups. Finally, severity of CSA, problematic substance use, and social support emerged as significant predictors of incarceration among survivors of CSA. Findings may aid in the refinement of interventions, prevention efforts, and educational programs regarding CSA, and shed light on pathways to incarceration.
