The author starts from the observation that, at times, the curriculum based on the disciplinary matrix encounters difficulties to cater for the frequent movements of curriculum integration in schools, especially in elementary school courses, an example of which being the field trip itself. The author then reflects on these difficulties, assuming the dual assumption that they can provide clues about the effectiveness of the formative potential which is thought to occur in the promotion of curricular integration and that can also reveal something about the school and the fulfillment of the role that society expects of it today. Besides his own experience with field trips, the author brings to his study tales and impressions obtained from conversations with teachers and students. In terms of theory, he uses the concepts of hybridism and recontextualization of discourses that make up the curriculum. He also brings different views on interdisciplinarity, brief fundamentals of classical modalities of curriculum integration, as well as some aspects of recent thinking regarding the school curriculum. In addition, due to the proximity to the school practice that the work seeks to maintain, it has as axis the idea of formative experience, an experience capable of providing meaning to the subject: student, teacher and even school. It is intended, therefore, to describe how the specific design of the studied curriculum integration and its implementation imply a game of identity construction, and how this game may be useful for the pedagogical and educational practice. It is hoped that the work would serve the school manager as a reflection about the daily dilemmas experienced in the construction of the curriculum as it happens on the real everyday practice of the school / A presente dissertação traz o relato de uma experiência de estudo do meio realizada em uma escola da rede particular de São Paulo e procura refletir sobre as condições de realização da integração curricular. O autor parte da constatação de que a organização curricular com base na matriz disciplinar não convive sem dificuldades com os movimentos de integração curricular frequentes nas escolas, mormente nos cursos de Ensino Fundamental, e dos quais o estudo do meio é um exemplo. Reflete sobre tais dificuldades, assumindo a dupla hipótese de que elas podem fornecer pistas sobre a efetivação do potencial formativo que se pensa haver na promoção da integração curricular e de que podem também revelar algo sobre a escola e o cumprimento do papel que hoje a sociedade espera dela. Além de sua própria experiência com estudos do meio, o autor traz para o seu relato falas e impressões obtidas em conversas com professores e alunos. No plano da teoria, utiliza-se das concepções de recontextualização e hibridismo dos discursos que compõem o currículo. Traz também diferentes visões sobre a interdisciplinaridade, breves fundamentos das modalidades clássicas de integração curricular, bem como alguns aspectos do pensamento recente sobre a organização curricular. Além disso, em função da proximidade com a prática escolar que o trabalho procura sempre manter, ele tem como eixo a ideia de experiência formativa, como vivência capaz de imprimir sentido no sujeito aluno, professor e até mesmo escola. Trata-se, pois, de descrever de que modo o projeto específico de integração curricular estudado e sua implementação implicam um jogo de construção de identidades e o que esse jogo pode ter de promissor para a prática pedagógica e educacional. Espera-se que o trabalho possa servir ao gestor escolar como reflexão a respeito dos impasses vividos na construção cotidiana do currículo tal como se dá na prática, no nível do assim chamado chão da escola

(IFPA-CRMB) of the Federal Institute of Science and Technology of the State of Par? (IFPA) offers the Technical Course in Agropecu?ria Integrated to High School, based on the pedagogy of alternation, via generator theme. The students of this course are inserted in a regional context of agrarian conflicts and the evident incentive to livestock as a model of production, having as consequence the deforestation of Areas of Permanent Preservation (APP). This context is expressed in the significant speeches that subsidized the theme of this course, for example: (I hope that this course can empower me for the job market.) I believe that students will solve the lack of infrastructure, mechanization and technical assistance That we have in the area). Due to the need for a field education that is contextualized and compatible with the realities of the field, there is a need to develop teaching practices that value students' research, reasoning and way of life. In this way, this research aimed to develop, apply and evaluate the use of schematic maps (sketches) as pedagogical method, to understand the situation and relevance of protected territorial spaces defined in Law 12.651, particularly APP, within the perspective of Field Education and pedagogic alternation, via the generating theme. These procedures were carried out with a view to stimulating the production of theoretical and practical knowledge for a more concrete productive planning of the rural properties. Seventy students participated in this study, divided into two groups, participants and non-participants. The methodology used was action research, applying and evaluating the use of sketches as a teaching tool. The results show that, through the use of the sketches, the students visualized more clearly the main forms of use and occupation of the spaces of family property, identified the APP areas, applied knowledge of ecological processes and environmental legislation to the different situations. / O Campus Rural de Marab? (IFPA-CRMB) do Instituo Federal de Ci?ncias e Tecnologia do Par? (IFPA) oferece o Curso T?cnico em Agropecu?ria Integrado ao Ensino M?dio, baseado na pedagogia da altern?ncia, via tema gerador. Os estudantes deste curso est?o inseridos em um contexto regional de conflitos agr?rios e ao evidente incentivo ? pecu?ria como modelo de produ??o, tendo como consequ?ncias o desmatamento de ?reas de Preserva??o Permanente (APP). Este contexto apresenta-se expresso nas falas significativas que subsidiaram o tema gerador deste curso, a exemplo: (Espero que esse curso possa me capacitar para o mercado de trabalho. Acredito que os alunos v?o resolver a falta de infraestrutura, mecaniza??o e de assist?ncia t?cnica que temos na regi?o). Devido a necessidade de uma Educa??o do Campo contextualizada e compat?vel com realidades do campo, surge a necessidade de se desenvolver pr?ticas de ensino que valorizem a investiga??o, o racioc?nio e o modo de vida dos estudantes. Desta forma, esta pesquisa teve como objetivo desenvolver, aplicar e avaliar o uso de mapas esquem?ticos (croquis) como m?todo pedag?gico, para compreens?o da situa??o e relev?ncia de espa?os territoriais protegidos definidos na Lei 12.651, particularmente, APP, dentro da perspectiva da Educa??o do Campo e da altern?ncia pedag?gica, via tema gerador. Tais procedimentos foram realizados numa perspectiva de estimular a produ??o de conhecimentos te?ricos e pr?ticos para um planejamento produtivo mais concreto das propriedades rurais. Participaram desta pesquisa 70 estudantes, divididos em dois grupos, participantes e n?o participantes. A metodologia utilizada foi a pesquisa-a??o, aplicando e avaliando o uso dos croquis como instrumento de ensino. Os resultados apontam que atrav?s do uso dos croquis os estudantes visualizaram com mais clareza as principais formas de uso e ocupa??o dos espa?os da propriedade familiar, identificaram as ?reas de APP, aplicaram conhecimentos de processos ecol?gicos e de legisla??o ambiental ?s diversas situa??es.

It is understood, therefore, that the course syllabus is based on the principles of interdisciplinarity. It is known, however, that the implementation of an interdisciplinary practice requires planning, time and willingness of teachers and the management team. In addition, this process can show resistance by teachers who supporters of traditional teaching practices, unaware, or do not accept not value interdisciplinary procedures. From this perspective, the proposed research aimed to answer the following question: pedagogical practice developed in the technical course in agriculture campus Amajari complies with the purposes of interdisciplinarity, as prescribed plan your course? Sought to know how the actors involved in the teaching-learning process (teachers, course coordinators, pedagogical coordinators and director of education) have organized to put in practice the pedagogical methodology recommended in the course. To do so, we aim to identify and analyze the conceptions of teachers and educational managers about interdisciplinarity in teaching and meet the pedagogical practices developed in the technical course in agriculture campus Amajari. In the first stage of the research, analyzed the course plan, identifying the mission, vision and values that support the insertion of IFRR in the region. This research is supported by the theoretical works of Hilton Japiass?, Edgar Morin, Ivani Farm, Guiomar Mello, Heloise L?ck, and other authors who discuss the interdisciplinary perspective in education. Based on the concepts and theoretical foundations presented by these authors, was held the second phase of the research, a qualitative analysis of the statements of the management team and teachers Campus Amajari / IFRR obtained through semi-structured interviews, in order to search the coherence between the proposed methodology and pedagogical practice developed in the course defined in this study. It was evident the commitment of a group of teachers in implementing the proposed methodology of the course focus with the use of the design methodology. The practice of these teachers favors the integration of theory and practice, from the perspective that teaching activities can be planned and executed in order to give the student the starring role in the process of building their knowledge and their professional training. It was noticed, however, the gaps between the curriculum and the reality of students, belonging mostly to the ethnics groups Macuxi and Wapichana. / Com o objetivo de atender ? necessidade de educa??o profissional no munic?pio de Amajari, o Instituto Federal de Roraima (IFRR) construiu o C?mpus Amajari, o qual oferta o Curso T?cnico em Agricultura, visando a garantir a constru??o de um conhecimento globalizante e superar os limites das disciplinas.Entende-se, pois, que o plano de curso se sustenta nos princ?pios da interdisciplinaridade. Sabe-se, no entanto, que a implementa??o de uma pr?tica interdisciplinar requer planejamento, tempo e disposi??o dos professores e da equipe gestora Al?m disso, esse processo pode apresentar resist?ncia por professores que, adeptos a pr?ticas tradicionais de ensino, desconhecem, n?o aceitam ou n?o valorizam procedimentos interdisciplinares. A partir dessa perspectiva, a pesquisa aqui proposta pretendeu responder ao seguinte questionamento:a pr?tica pedag?gica desenvolvida no Curso T?cnico em Agricultura do C?mpus Amajari cumpre com os prop?sitos da interdisciplinaridade, conforme preceitua seu plano de curso? Buscou-se conhecer de que modo os atores envolvidos no processo ensino-aprendizagem (professores, diretor de ensino, coordenador de curso e pedag?gico) t?m se organizado para p?r em pr?tica a metodologia recomendada na proposta pedag?gica do curso. Para tanto, visamos identificar e analisar as concep??es dos professores e gestores pedag?gicos acerca da interdisciplinaridade no ensino e conhecer as pr?ticas pedag?gicas desenvolvidas no Curso T?cnico em Agricultura do C?mpus Amajari. Na primeira etapa da pesquisa, analisou-se o Plano de Curso, identificando a miss?o, vis?o e valores que amparam a inser??o do IFRR na regi?o. Esta pesquisa tem como suporte te?rico obras de Hilton Japiass?, Edgar Morin, Ivani Fazenda, Guiomar Mello, Helo?sa L?ck, al?m de outros autores que discutem a perspectiva interdisciplinar na educa??o. Com base nos conceitos e fundamentos te?ricos apresentados por esses autores, foi realizada a segunda fase da pesquisa, numa an?lise qualitativa das falas da equipe gestora e dos professores do C?mpus Amajari/IFRR, obtidas por meio de entrevistas semiestruturadas, com o intuito de pesquisar a coer?ncia entre a proposta metodol?gica e a pr?tica pedag?gica desenvolvida no curso delimitado neste estudo. Evidenciou-se o empenho de um grupo de professores em executar a proposta metodol?gica do curso em foco com a utiliza??o da metodologia de projetos. A pr?tica desses professores privilegia a articula??o teoria-pr?tica, na perspectiva de que as atividades de ensino possam ser planejadas e executadas de forma a garantir ao educando o papel de protagonista no processo de constru??o de seu conhecimento e de sua forma??o profissional. Percebeu-se, no entanto, a exist?ncia de lacunas entre o curr?culo escolar e a realidade dos alunos, pertencentes, em sua maioria, ?s etnias Macuxi e Wapichana.

Considerando os processos de mudança na sociedade e a demanda por novas formas de trabalhar com o conhecimento no ensino, discute-se um novo caminho metodológico inovador: a Aprendizagem Baseada em Problemas (ABP). Descrevendo suas raízes teóricas, procurou-se identificar os seus princípios orientadores a fim de formar cidadãos críticos e conscientes do mundo em que vivem. Os currículos escolares encontrados na maioria das escolas são multidisciplinares, formados por uma soma de disciplinas isoladas. Isso pode dificultar que os alunos dêem sentido aos conhecimentos adquiridos na escola, separando-os dos conhecimentos da \"vida\". A ABP, por ser um método de ensino que tem como ponto de partida um problema que pode ser relacionado à realidade dos alunos, pode ajudar a conferir sentido aos conhecimentos escolares. Aliada à interdisciplinaridade, a ABP torna-se uma ferramenta importante para tratar de problemas complexos da sociedade na escola. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi verificar se a ABP pode promover a interdisciplinaridade nas aulas de Química no Ensino Médio, utilizando as Ilhas de Racionalidade (IR) como modelo de trabalho interdisciplinar. A partir dos princípios da ABP e das etapas das IR, elaborou-se uma situação de aprendizagem (SApr) explorando o tema \"Tratamento e Gerenciamento de Recursos Hídricos em Grandes Cidades\". Os dados de pesquisa foram coletados em duas turmas do segundo ano do Ensino Médio em uma escola estadual localizada na região metropolitana de São Paulo. Os mapas conceituais elaborados pelos alunos no início e no final da SApr foram o principal instrumento de coleta de dados. Verificou-se que inicialmente os estudantes faziam relações superficiais sobre o assunto abordado na SApr havendo uma maior especialização nessas relações no final do processo, envolvendo conceitos de biologia, geografia e química. Pôde-se observar que problemas que se aproximam da realidade dos alunos, tratados de maneira interdisciplinar, motivam os alunos a aprender de forma mais significativa. / The curricula found in most schools are multidisciplinary, consisting of a sum of isolated disciplines. This can make it difficult for students to give meaning to the knowledge acquired in school, separating them from the knowledge of \"life\". The Problem-based Learning (PBL) is a teaching method that has as its starting point a problem related to the reality of students, increasing the meaning to the contents of scholar disciplines. Allied with interdisciplinary, PBL becomes an important tool to address complex problems of society. The purpose of this study was to determine whether PBL can promote interdisciplinarity during chemistry classes in high school, using the Rationality Islands (RI) as a model for the interdisciplinary work. Based on the PBL principles and the RI stages, a 14- class sequence was set up for discussing \"Treatment and Water Resources Management in Big Cities\". Empirical data were collected in two 2nd-year classrooms of a public high school, located in São Paulo. The concept maps produced by students at the beginning and end of the 14-class sequence were the main option for collecting data. It was found that students made superficial relations about the concepts involved with the subject at the beggining, focusing only on chemistry and facts. On the other hand, the final concept maps showed interdisciplinary relationships involving concepts from biology, geography and chemistry. It was observed that problems that approach the reality of children treated in an interdisciplinary way motivate students to learn more significantly.

The United Nations declared 2005 to 2014 to be the Decade of Education for Sustainable Development. This agenda is being implemented enthusiastically in university facilities management and operations, and while research in sustainability is increasingly common, tertiary curriculum has not experienced a similar push. This thesis undertakes to explore the expressions of sustainability in the academic activities of universities, and to determine what sort of change (if any) is appropriate. It also seeks to mediate what has become a polarised debate between idealists and pragmatists around the implementation of EFS. Two key features of the work are: 1) the investigation of sustainability in the aggregate student experience, rather than individual subjects; and 2) returning to first principles to avoid a normative stance a priori.¶ A range of methods is employed adaptively through the process of this alternately broad and deep exploratory study, including: participant observation, interviews, content analysis, questionnaires, social network analysis, bibliometrics, and data clustering. A systemic approach to Canadian and Australian case work captures the diversity of institutional roles and academic motivations at play in adaptation to the EFS agenda.¶ A stasis exists between the literature around higher education curriculum for sustainability and its implementation. The problem is exacerbated by the lack of pedagogical training in most university academics. A long-standing utilitarian sectoral culture and an increasingly job-focused student market further challenge such public-good concepts as sustainability in the academy. Four simple ideas sit at the heart of 35 years of environmental and sustainability education literature, despite changes in jargon: liberal education and broad foundations; interdisciplinarity in problem-solving; cosmopolitan philosophies; and civic action. Relevant disciplinary content includes biology, environmental science, policy, philosophy, human society, economics, and culture. Most of these elements are rare in the Australian sector, which instead offers science and technology-focused environmental programs with flexible requirements. A transition to the human realm is evident in programs targeting sustainability.¶ Curriculum cannot be viewed in isolation, however, as it concerns only one of a university’s many constituencies, and one facet of academic staff scholarship. For example, even in higher education sectors more sympathetic to a diversity of university niches and curricular models, like Canada’s, sustainability offerings operate at a tension from low-cost and low-effort teaching models. So-called ‘umbrella’ networking structures on cross-cutting topics must walk a careful line to be comprehensive yet non-competitive. They present great opportunities for sustainability teaching but are almost uniformly research-focused. A distinct sense emerges that the erosion of the collective identity and activities of academe has weakened the ability of universities to respond to new information and challenges in anything but corporate, isomorphic ways.¶ Two detailed Australian cases of research, research training and curriculum development activities around sustainability paint a rich picture of the agenda. The intractability of fragmentation between disciplines is evident, even in so-called interdisciplinary units. Problem-based topics often do not have an established social network or committee structure, and priorities can differ by budget unit. Disciplines provide identity, peers and cohesive research directions that can be compelling for individual academics. The most fascinating pattern that arises during the mapping of research co-authorship and co-supervisory relationships around sustainability is the bi-directional orientation: academics collaborate outside their departmental home on papers, but within that home to mentor research students. This combination unifies two contrasting theories of social capital transmission – those preferring dense and sparse networks, respectively – and may be ideal. Students then receive consistent messages while gaining access to the largest (non-redundant) set of human and technical resources via their supervisors’ personal networks. This hypothesis should be explored further: if supported, it would have major impacts on the rhetoric around collaboration in interdisciplinary units in particular.¶ Curriculum design processes in utilitarian universities are subject to the same fallibilities in adapting to sustainability as other institutions and the wider society. Change is motivated and moderated by financial imperatives and the scale of thought is often coincident with budgets. Engagement processes are often incomplete or undemocratic, hampered by inadequate leadership and shifting membership. Group learning via research, experimentation or vigorous debate is surprisingly rare. Finally, ad-hoc or project-based academic teams are rarely mandated to tackle the causes of problems, some of which can be intractable, and are limited to treating the symptoms. Incremental pragmatism may be a necessary element to university adaptation for EFS.¶ A number of recommendations are offered to improve interdisciplinarity and university values more generally. Individual academics should: offer additive alternatives to metrics and incentive schemes that maintain existing functions; act on common ground to rebuild a community of scholars; wield to the fullest the freedom in the classroom, and the opportunity to reflect, that university teaching allows; and, continue to debate ideas with passion and rigour, avoiding ‘academic correctness’. University management can contribute by: establishing a clear academic identity for the university beyond ‘excellence’, and supporting firm foundations for students based on that particular vision; taking a proactive view of course review and development and facilitating experimentation in those settings; intentionally fostering interdisciplinary units differently to disciplinary ones; and, establishing and recognising equivalence across a range of successful academic career archetypes.¶ This methodologically innovative work also suggests opportunities for extending the research, including: refining and testing the sustainability canon developed here; better understanding collaborative behaviour and the impact of various models of supervisory teams on student career paths; and, finding better ways of defining, modelling and evaluating interdisciplinary scholarship. Sustainability is likeliest to emerge from a healthy and independent tertiary sector, than one operating as an overt policy instrument.

L’apprendimento della leadership invoca un’attenzione pedagogica perché implica un insieme complesso di attività di formazione, sviluppo ed educazione del leader che necessitano di essere adeguatamente problematizzate, validate e integrate mediante le categorie pedagogiche dell’intenzionalità, della progettualità, della riflessività, della relazionalità e dell'esperienza personale. La curvatura umanistica delle recenti teorie della leadership e le analogie esistenti tra l’agire del leader e l’agire educativo pongono l’interrogativo su una possibile pedagogia della leadership e ispirano l’impiego delle arti nella formazione del leader. Formare la leadership si riduce spesso all’apprendimento strumentale di competenze comportamentali ritenute funzionali al ruolo, indipendentemente dal contesto organizzativo e dalle dimensioni personali del leader. Seppure comportamenti, capacità e tratti personali di leader efficaci possano essere facilmente identificati, gli individui non possono assimilarli senza cambiare disposizioni soggettive e visioni del mondo. La formazione arts-based facilita il leader nei processi di conoscenza e sviluppo delle dimensioni identitarie (fini, valori, credenze, emozioni, concetti di sé, intelligenze e sensibilità) che sottendono ai suoi comportamenti, integrandone efficacemente gli aspetti cognitivi, affettivi e motivazionali. Sebbene le arti possano contribuire in vario modo all’apprendimento della leadership, le questioni di pertinenza, validità ed affidabilità degli interventi arts-based richiedono un urgente processo di inquadramento epistemologico e metodologico. / Leadership learning requires a pedagogical care because it implies a set of complex instructional, developmental and educative activities, which need to be opportunely problematized, validated, integrated by pedagogical categories of personal intentionality, projectuality, reflexivity, relationality, and subjective experience. The humanistic curvature of recent leadership theories and existing analogies between leader’s action and educative action put a question mark over a possible pedagogy of leadership, inspiring the deployment of the arts in leader development process. Developing leadership often is reduced to the instrumental learning of behavioral competencies assumed to be functional to role interpretation and field-independent, prescinding from organizational context and leader’s personal characteristics. Though behaviours, skills and personal traits of effective leaders can be easily identified, they cannot be learned without changing individual dispositions and world vision. Arts-based learning facilitates leaders in the process of self-knowing and development of identity (ends, values, assumptions, emotions, self-concepts, intelligences, sensitivities) underlying their behaviours and helping them integrate cognitive, affective and motivational aspects. Even though arts can contribute differently to leadership learning, questions of pertinence, validity, and reliability affect arts-based interventions and demand an urgent process of epistemological and methodological frameworking.

Σκοπός της παρούσας διατριβής είναι η μελέτη και αποτίμηση του βαθμού καλλιέργειας και κατάκτησης της δημιουργικότητας των φοιτητών/τριων στο πλαίσιο των σπουδών τους στα διαφορετικά Τμήματα των ιδρυμάτων Ανώτατης Εκπαίδευσης. Προς αυτή την κατεύθυνση διερευνούνται οι παράγοντες/χαρακτηριστικά που επηρεάζουν την δημιουργικότητα των φοιτητών/τριων (λ.χ. προσωπικά/ κοινωνικοοικονομικά και άλλα χαρακτηριστικά των υποκειμένων της έρευνας) και μελετούνται οι απόψεις των φοιτητών/τριων για τους τρόπους καλλιέργειας και κατάκτησης της δημιουργικότητάς τους μέσα από τη διαδικασία διδασκαλίας-μάθησης-αξιολόγησης στο Τμήμα όπου φοιτούν. Η έννοια της δημιουργικότητας αποσαφηνίζεται και συνδέεται με τις δραστηριότητες, τις επιδόσεις, το Ανθρώπινο και Κοινωνικό Κεφάλαιο που οι φοιτητές/τριες αποκομίζουν μέσω των σπουδών τους. Επίσης, αναδεικνύεται η ιδιαίτερη σημασία που προσλαμβάνουν σήμερα οι δημιουργικές δραστηριότητες, οι οποίες προεκτείνουν τις τυπικές εκπαιδευτικές λειτουργίες και χρησιμεύουν ως «γέφυρα» για τη μετάβαση στην αγορά εργασίας. Ενδεικτικό ως προς αυτά, είναι το παράδειγμα της μύησης στην Κοινωνική Επιχειρηματικότητα και της ανάληψης πρωτοβουλιών που προάγουν τη θεσμική καινοτομία διευκολύνοντας παράλληλα τη σύνδεση ομαδοσυνεργατικών παιδαγωγικών αντιλήψεων με αυτοδιαχειριστικού τύπου γόνιμους και δημιουργικούς «κοινωνικούς πειραματισμούς» εντάξιμους στο ευρύ πεδίο της Κοινωνικής και Αλληλέγγυας Οικονομίας. Πέραν τούτου, συσχετίζεται και με παιδαγωγικο-εκπαιδευτικά συστήματα και μεθοδολογίες, όπως της διαθεματικότητας. Όπως αποδείχθηκε από την έρευνά μας, υψηλότερες επιδόσεις/τιμές δημιουργικότητας παρουσιάζουν οι φοιτητές/τριες που είχαν εκπαιδευθεί ως μαθητές/τριες στο πλαίσιο της διαθεματικότητας. Για την έρευνα: α) αναλύθηκε το περιεχόμενο των προγραμμάτων σπουδών των υπό διερεύνηση Τμημάτων, έχοντας ως οδηγούς τα επιμέρους ερευνητικά ερωτήματα και β) διαμορφώθηκε και ελέγχθηκε ως προς την αξιοπιστία και εγκυρότητα κατάλληλο ερωτηματολόγιο, με ερωτήσεις κλειστού τύπου (επιλογής, διαβάθμισης τύπου Likert), καθώς και με ερωτήσεις ανοικτού τύπου, το οποίο συμπληρώθηκε από τους φοιτητές/τριες του 2ου και 4ου έτους Τμημάτων του Πανεπιστημίου Πατρών (Βιολογίας, Ηλεκτρολόγων Μηχανικών και Τεχνολογίας 8 Υπολογιστών, Ιατρικής, Παιδαγωγικό Τμήμα Δημοτικής Εκπαίδευσης (ΠΤΔΕ), καθώς και των ανεξάρτητων, κατά την περίοδο διεξαγωγής της έρευνας, Τμημάτων Οικονομικών Επιστημών και Διοίκησης Επιχειρήσεων. (Τα Τμήματα Οικονομικών Επιστημών και Διοίκησης Επιχειρήσεων υπάγονται πλέον στη Σχολή Οργάνωσης και Διοίκησης Επιχειρήσεων). Η ανάλυση των δεδομένων της έρευνας δείχνει ότι οι περισσότεροι φοιτητές/τριες αν και δηλώνουν ότι έχουν έντονο ενδιαφέρον για την καλλιέργεια της δημιουργικότητάς τους μέσω των σπουδών τους, υποστηρίζουν ότι αυτό δεν αποτελεί προτεραιότητα των προγραμμάτων σπουδών ή των καθηγητών/τριών τους. Προτείνουν δε να δοθεί έμφαση σε συγκεκριμένες δραστηριότητες που συνάδουν με το Πρόγραμμα Σπουδών τους και διευρύνουν το φάσμα των ενδιαφερόντων τους (πρακτική άσκηση, εργαστήρια, εισηγήσεις με συζήτηση, επισκέψεις επαγγελματιών του χώρου στο Τμήμα φοίτησής τους, μαθήματα καλλιτεχνικού/αισθητικού κύκλου) και με τις οποίες θεωρούν ότι θα μπορούσε να αναπτυχθεί η δημιουργικότητά τους στο πλαίσιο των σπουδών τους∙ ευρήματα που συνδέονται με τις σύγχρονες τάσεις της αποτελεσματικής εκπαίδευσης σε ευρωπαϊκό και διεθνές επίπεδο. / The aim of the present study is to investigate and assess the degree of cultivation of students’ creativity throughout their studies in departments of Higher Education Institutions. The study took place in the case of six different departments in Patras University (Department of Biology, Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, Faculty of Medicine, Department of Primary Education, Department of Economics, Department of Business Administration). The content of creativity is both clarified and interconnected with the activities, the achievements and the Human and Social Capital that students gain through their studies. It is also prominent that creative activities can be utilized as bridges for young people to pass successively from Higher Education Departments to social enterprises. 9 Moreover, creative activities are correlated with pedagogic-educational systems and methodologies like cross-cullaricularity. It is shown through our research that students' creativity is promoted by an innovative instruction as aforementioned. In conjunction with our analyzing the content of the curricula in student's programs of study, we conducted a survey research. A specially formulated questionnaire was used to investigate any possible statistical relationship with the participants’ personal/socio-economic and other characteristics (collected by open-ended questions) as well as their attitudes towards creativity (derived from the analysis of their answers to the Likert type questions of the questionnaire). A supplementary goal was to study the students' opinion regarding the ways of improving creativity during the teaching-learning-assessment process. Findings indicate that although most of the students express a great interest in improving their creativity, their opinion is that it is not a high-rated priority in the departments that they attend, despite the fact that this is the case in education in Europe and globally.

In this paper, we develop a decision-theoretic framework for evaluating data mining systems, which employ classification methods, in terms of their utility in decision-making. The decision-theoretic model provides an economic perspective on the value of â extracted knowledge,â in terms of its payoff to the organization, and suggests a wide range of decision problems that arise from this point of view. The relation between the quality of a data mining system and the amount of investment that the decision maker is willing to make is formalized. We propose two ways by which independent data mining systems can be combined and show that the combined data mining system can be used in the decision-making process of the organization to increase payoff. Examples are provided to illustrate the various concepts, and several ways by which the proposed framework can be extended are discussed.

Problématique : Dans un contexte de vieillissement de la population et de complexification des besoins de santé, travailler en interdisciplinarité est devenu une nécessité pour prodiguer des soins de qualité aux personnes âgées vulnérables. Les avantages de l’interdisciplinarité sont connus mais son intégration dans la pratique des professionnels de la santé se vit parfois difficilement. La compréhension de la perception de l’interdisciplinarité de la part des infirmières est un élément majeur d’une pratique de collaboration interprofessionnelle réussie, mais ce sujet a été peu étudié, encore moins en milieu gériatrique. Méthodologie : Le but de cette étude était d’explorer la perception de l’interdisciplinarité des infirmières dans le cadre d’une étude qualitative exploratoire. Les données ont été collectées grâce à sept entrevues semi-dirigées et une discussion de groupe. La méthode de Tesch (1990) fut utilisée pour l’analyse des données et une représentation de la perception fut élaborée. Résultats : Pour les participantes, l’interdisciplinarité est perçue comme un processus d’équilibre parfois difficile entre leur désir d’affirmer leur identité professionnelle et leur désir de collaborer et de travailler en synergie avec les autres intervenants, et ce pour le bien-être de la personne âgée. Elles trouvent que l’apport de l’infirmière à l’équipe interdisciplinaire est indispensable et que sa disponibilité et sa proximité du patient lui donne un statut privilégié pour être le pivot au sein de l’équipe interdisciplinaire. Elles soulignent aussi que la vulnérabilité de la clientèle et l’absence du proche-aidant lors des réunions interdisciplinaires poussent les infirmières à jouer le rôle de porte-parole de la personne âgée. Elles identifient unanimement la communication comme l’élément déterminant d’une collaboration réussie. Elles ajoutent que le leadership, la compétence et l’expérience de l’infirmière sont des déterminants importants pour une interdisciplinarité réussie, alors que la présence du désir de collaborer et le respect mutuel doivent être présents chez tous les intervenants de l’équipe pour collaborer harmonieusement. Par ailleurs, parmi tous les facteurs structurels et organisationnels, seule la pénurie des ressources professionnelles a été identifiée comme un déterminant ayant une incidence sur le travail interdisciplinaire. / Problem: In the context of an ageing population and of the complexification of health needs, working in interdisciplinarity became a necessity to give quality care to the vulnerable older people. Advantages of working in interdisciplinarity are known but its integration in the practice of healthcare professionals is sometimes difficult. The understanding of the perception of interdisciplinarity by nurses is an important element for successful interprofessional collaboration, however this subject was little studied in general, even less in a geriatric context. Methodology: The purpose of this exploratory qualitative study was to explore the perception of interdisciplinarity by nurses. Data were collected with seven semi-structured interviews and one group discussion. Tesch’s method (1990) was used to analyze the data and a representation of nurses’s perception was elaborated. Results: Interdisciplinarity is perceived as a fragile balance process between participants’desire to assert their professional identity and their wish to collaborate and to work in synergy with the other professionnals in the interest of older person’s wellbeing. Participants consider nurses’ contribution to the interdisciplinary team indispensable and that their availability and nearness to patients give them a privileged status making them the pivot of the team. They also underline that the vulnerability of older people and the absence of family caregivers during interdisciplinary meetings urge nurses to act as the older person’s spokesman. They unanimously identify communication as the major element of a successful collaboration. They add that the leadership, the competence and the experience of nurses are important determinants of a successful interdisciplinarity, while the desire to collaborate and mutual respect have to be shown by all the team members to work harmoniously. Moreover, among all potential structural and organizational factors, only shortage of professional resources was identified as having an incidence on interdisciplinarity.
