This research stems from the problems that may be encountered in an attempt to accompany the non-adult towards proper adulthood in the absence of both communication and educative intervention in the educative occurrence. The educator may fail to render his educative task adequately without communieating with the child and intervening educati vely in his life; and the child may be deprived of his opportunity of becoming a responsible adult. A human child, particularly in the industrialised societies, is confronted by various phenomena with which he often fails to communicate normatively. This investigation is an endeavour to reveal the essentiality of communication during the educative intervention, that is, in guiding the child to refrain from immoral, non-normative and unacceptable activities and all that violates cultural adulthood according to the norms, values and standards prevailing in that particular community. It further aims at disclosing that communication in the educative sense implies educative intervention, failing which communication becomes meaningless. Educative intervention and communication are, in truth, inseparable during the educative occurrence and they should supplement and enhance each other, because their separation may imply the nullification of the educative guidance on the part of the educator and the denial of the child's opportunity of attaining acceptable adulthood. In order to assist the child to gradually actualise his adulthood, the educator who intervenes in his life should be a devoted communicator who strives to communicate (verbally and non-verbally) his knowledge, feelings, beliefs and attitudes to the child while upholding his status of adulthood. It is not expected of the true educator to communicate well about normative adulthood verbally and simultaneously violate this through his nonverbal communication which includes all unacceptable physical activities which erode the dignity of adulthood. It implies, therefore, that in his attempt to guide the child to comply and respect the aspects, conditions and criteria of adulthood the educator should respect and comply with them verbally and non-verbally. A responsible person is expected to maintain and promote adulthood through both verbal and non-verbal forms of communication. / Educational Studies / D. Ed. (Fundamental Pedagogics)

This study was designed to determine the relationships between three variables in fifth- and sixth-grade classroom verbal interactions. These variables include sex of teacher, sex of pupil, and approval/disapproval interactions between teacher and pupil.

The purpose of this study was to examine the presence of Schön's concept of reflective conversation as a defining component in the applied studio music lesson. The research problems were (1) to determine the presence of complete and incomplete reflective conversations; (2) to determine the verbally exhibited knowledge base within complete conversations in relationship to conversation length; and (3) to establish an instructional profile of stable behaviors based on reflective conversation as a distinguishing characteristic among selected teachers. Videotapes of twenty-six applied studio music lessons of thirteen university teachers were analyzed according to problem solving, on-the-spot experimentation, and evaluation. An observation form was developed and was a reliable tool to collect information concerning number and type of reflective conversations, conversation length, and the teachers' verbally demonstrated knowledge base. Knowledge base was obtained by using the procedural model of Flanagan's critical incident technique. Reflective conversations existed and were a distinguishing characteristic of the teachers. With the exception of two teachers, a stable use of both number and length of reflective conversations, and knowledge base areas, was found. A discernible difference in the teachers' knowledge base within conversation length existed, and thus established instructional profiles for the teachers. Complete reflective conversations ranged from one-sixth to over half of total lesson time. Within instrument categories, teachers generally revealed a dissimilar knowledge usage. Some teachers exhibited fast-paced problem solving, in one minute or less, and named one or two knowledge areas. Others had longer conversations, up to five minutes, with more deliberate problem solving, and as many as twelve knowledge areas named. Results indicated that a practically significant situation can be examined by establishing teacher instructional profiles based upon reflective conversation. Methods employed in this study could be used to document teacher problem-solving and teacher knowledge in a variety of settings.

The purpose of this descriptive study was to create a read-aloud instructional program which could be used in teaching caregivers to promote quality verbal interaction among participants during story time. Prior to and subsequent to instruction, selected high-school students participating in a vocational-technical child development program were audio- and videotaped as they read stories aloud to children. All tapes were transcribed in full. Using the storybook Reading Analysis System (Teale, Martinez, & Glass, in press), dialogue was categorized into form, type of information, focus, instructional intent, and importance categories.

A interação, que ocorre desde os primórdios atrelada ao compartilhamento de um mesmo espaço físico e temporal, ganha a possibilidade de transpor essa premissa, possibilitando um modo revolucionário de interação, que pode ocorrer dissociado de espaços físicos e tempo cronológico, em um contexto virtual. A interação do tipo face a face deixa de ser exclusiva de um contexto presencial e passa a dividir espaço com novos tipos de comunicação. Nesse sentido, este trabalho tem por objetivo apresentar os eixos interacionais que emergem durante o uso do aplicativo Quizlet - o Quizlet Live, em sala de aula de língua inglesa no Ensino Técnico integrado ao Ensino Médio de um dos câmpus do Instituto Federal de São Paulo. Para seu desenvolvimento, apoiaremo-nos teoricamente em estudos acerca da relevância das TDICs e da aprendizagem móvel como suporte para o ensino realizado em sala de aula (PAIVA, 2015; ALDA, LEFFA, 2014, UNESCO, 2014, entre outros) e dos diferentes tipos de interação presentes no processo de ensino-aprendizagem de língua inglesa (MOORE, 1989, ANDERSON & GARISSON, 1998; LEFFA, 2005; THOMPSON,1995). O corpus desta pesquisa resulta de questionários, diário reflexivo e gravações em áudio realizados durante o uso do Quizlet Live, após discussões baseadas no primeiro episódio da terceira temporada da série Black Mi...

Interaction, which occurs from the earliest times linked to the sharing of the same place and the same time, gains the possibility of transposing this premise, enables a revolutionary mode of interaction to happen, which can occur dissociated from space and chronological time, in a virtual context. The face-to-face interaction is no longer exclusively a face-to-face context and starts to share space with new types of communication. In this sense, this research aims to present the interactional axes that emerge when using the app Quizlet - more specifically Quizlet Live, in English language classroom teaching in the Technical Education integrated to the High School of one of the campuses of the Federal Institute of São Paulo. For its development, we rely on studies in theories about the relevance of DICT and mobile learning as a support for teaching held in the classroom (PAIVA, 2015, ALDA, LEFFA, 2014, UNESCO, 2014 and others) and the different types of interaction in the English language teaching-learning process (MOORE, 1989, ANDERSON & GARISSON, 1998; LEFFA, 2005; THOMPSON,1995,2011)The corpus of this research results from questionnaires, reflective diaries and audio recordings made during the use of Quizlet Live that was used after the activities based on the first episode of the third season of the serie...
