The purpose of the project was to develop a curriculum guide that would allow teachers to effectively and efficiently utilize a school garden to teach the required standards while promoting peace among the students. To develop this a thorough review of literature in the following areas was used: school gardening, peace curriculum, and curriculum design.

The purpose of this research was to learn more about the uses and benefits of educational robotics in an elementary school curriculum.

Designed to answer the overarching question: does the implementation of direct vocabulary instruction strategies improve the comprehension of fifth grade students during the social studies lessons? The study included three fifth grade classes in the Corona-Norco Unified School District. To answer the question seven areas were considered: lesson selection, word selection, developing a vocabulary note guide, developing the test with a rubric, making handouts with critical analysis questions, designing semantic maps and semantic feature analysis handouts of the lesson design. Results showed that students who received the direct instruction in vocabulary words benefited greatly and in most cases doubled their score from the pretest to the posttest. The control group showed minimal to no growth from the pretest to the posttest.

The purpose of this study was to compare the effects on student writing of two separate approaches to teaching grammar - one traditional, and one non-traditional. Over the course of four weeks, the writing abilities of two high school English classes, similar in composition and academic skill, were compared.

This project provides a convenient way to incorporate environmental education into the already exiting curriculum.

The aim of this dissertation was to identify the perception of some Accountig professors regarding the importance of interdiciplinarity for the professionals of this field, as such professors are to contribute for the future of Accounting professionals, who should be able to interact and compete in a dinamic market. Firstly, it was carried an experimental study through documentary and bibliographic research. The results disclosed that the interdisciplinarity is more a conceipt than a real application in the Brazilian Accounting universities. Secondly, it was carried a field research, through an interview with some Accounting professors in the of four universities, all of them located in S??o Paulo city. The results confirm the conclusions of the literature and highlight that there is still a gap between the conceipt of interdisciplinarity and its real application by the interviewed professors, even though they are aware of its importance. / A forma????o de profissionais de Ci??ncias Cont??beis no mundo globalizado traz ?? tona a discuss??o sobre a grade curricular dos cursos dessa ??rea, a respeito da legisla????o que direciona tais curr??culos e da necess??ria rela????o com o mercado de trabalho, traduzida em seu perfil profissiogr??fico. O objetivo desta pesquisa foi identificar a percep????o dos professores de Controladoria do curso de Ci??ncias Cont??beis sobre a import??ncia da Interdisciplinaridade na forma????o do Contador, j?? que cabe a eles contribuir para a forma????o de futuros profissionais, aptos ao mercado de trabalho din??mico e exigente de compet??ncias. Para atingir esse objetivo, utilizou-se, em uma primeira etapa, o estudo explorat??rio por meio de pesquisa documental e bibliogr??fica, resultando dessa ??ltima a constata????o de que o fen??meno da Interdisciplinaridade ?? mais pensado e falado que efetivamente realizado no ensino superior brasileiro de Ci??ncias Cont??beis. A segunda etapa da pesquisa consistiu de pesquisa de campo, por meio de entrevista realizada com professores de Controladoria de quatro IES - Institui????es de Ensino Superior situadas no munic??pio de S??o Paulo. As informa????es obtidas confirmaram as constata????es da revis??o bibliogr??fica e chamaram a aten????o para o fato de que, embora sensibilizados pela import??ncia da Interdisciplinaridade na forma????o dos futuros contadores e, em sua maioria, praticantes intuitivos da Interdisciplinaridade, ainda h?? uma dist??ncia entre o falado e pensado e o efetivamente colocado em pr??tica pelos professores de Controladoria entrevistados.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Ricardo José Rizkallah.pdf: 1362128 bytes, checksum: 6afb526360e76cfe7d652b4f5b2bb6c5 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2018-06-25 / The present work aims to analyze interdisciplinary practice of mediation as an alternative dispute resolution available to families. We work with an idea of mediation should not be positioned as a simple alternative to the traditional jurisdictional system, but to this trying to integrate itself. Therefore, the main issue of the study is the institution of family mediation in the field of Judiciary and the study of the historical evolution of families. It discusses the most relevant aspects of mediation: legal aspects, principles, mediator role and interdisciplinarity. It also presents the Brazilian legislative movement and the most controversial issues, also including civil proceedure code and its complementary methods of alternative dispute resolution methods. Although this research points out that family mediation is a privileged area for an interdisciplinary approach, the reality reveals countless challenges on a daily basis, demonstrating a need to think means of estimulating the interdisciplinary practice in the hypotheses in which mediation is effective and the solution in the resolution of family conflicts, besides the application of criteria of practical application of the alternative dispute resolution. This research is inserted in an important historical moment to mediation in Brazil, because since 2010 it has been implemented in the Brazilian Judiciary, through a public policy of proper handling of conflicts. Within this context, the research has analysed a Project named "Casa da Família" in the City of São Vicente and developed by the Court of Justice of the State of São Paulo and sought, from a quantitative and qualitative research, between 2016 and 2017, analyze the obtained results. The achievements and concerns by ways of implementating mediation were shown in this research by considering interdiciplinary mediation for its quality and predicates, and how to effectively benefit from this cultural change. It was tried to launch theoretical bases of the use of the mediation by the trait of the interdisciplinarity in the familiar conflicts / O presente trabalho tem por objetivo analisar a mediação interdisciplinar como forma de facilitar as alternativas autocompositivas colocadas à disposição das famílias. Trabalhamos com a ideia de que a mediação não deve se posicionar como simples alternativa ao sistema jurisdicional tradicional, mas a este tentando se integrar. Portanto, a questão central do estudo refere-se à institucionalização da mediação familiar no âmbito do Poder Judiciário. O estudo parte da evolução histórica das famílias. Discorre sobre os aspectos mais relevantes da mediação: natureza jurídica, papel do mediador e interdisciplinariedade. Apresenta-se, ainda, o movimento legislativo brasileiro e as principais questões controvertidas, inclusive no processo civil que introduziu métodos complementares de solução de conflitos. Embora a pesquisa mostre que a mediação familiar é um espaço privilegiado para a atuação interdisciplinar, a realidade revela inúmeros desafios no cotidiano, demonstrando a necessidade de se pensar meios de estimular a prática interdisciplinar nas hipóteses em que a mediação é efetiva e necessária na resolução de conflitos familiares, além da aplicação de critérios de aplicação prática desse mecanismo autocompositivo. Dentro desse contexto, a pesquisa tomou por base o projeto “Casa da Família” da Comarca de São Vicente desenvolvido pelo Tribunal de Justiça do Estado de São Paulo e buscou, a partir de pesquisa quantitativa e qualitativa, entre os anos de 2016 e 2017, analisar os resultados obtidos. Esta pesquisa se insere num importante momento histórico da mediação no Brasil, pois desde 2010 vem sendo implantada no Poder Judiciário brasileiro política pública de tratamento adequado dos conflitos. As conquistas até então alcançadas e as preocupações com a forma de implantação da mediação foram tratadas no trabalho pensando que a introdução efetiva da mediação familiar interdisciplinar se dê pela qualidade e seus predicados e que as famílias possam se beneficiar efetivamente com essa mudança cultural. Buscou-se, enfim, lançar as bases teóricas do uso da mediação pelo traço da interdisciplinariedade nos conflitos familiares
