This comparison was made using the results obtained through the application of an instrument with a evaluation scale about the relationship between the knowledge of the basic education legislation and other aspects that involve this course in the Federal University of Ceará regarding apprenticeship. Two DLE classes from the Language Bachelor’s were followed in the cities of Ipueiras and Russas along with other two, based in Fortaleza, under pure classroom teaching in different semesters. With this purpose a review was made on subjects such as DLE in Brazil, Cyberculture and Technology, Education Legislation and Learning Evaluation, conducting to deeper thoughts on the undergraduate teaching from different areas taking into account the need of some knowledge from them in aspects related to Education legislation with the perspective of their future actions in basic education. The investigation is of both qualitative and quantitative nature, in view of the analysis and search for understanding measurable educational phenomena from the observation of subjects involved in the process of teaching and learning during the course. The selected sample according to the nature of this study comprises undergraduate students from various semesters enrolled in the SPEM course from both the Federal University of Ceará and the Brazil Open University System, for a total of 81 individuals. Data collected revealed the necessity of reading and studying subjects from the SPEM classroom course related to educational legislation and a crucial point. From the results, a brief discussion was made on the aspects that involve the SPEM course in the curriculum at the undergraduate level, considering limits and possibilities of the evaluation in the classroom courses and through virtual means of learning / O estudo teve como objetivo investigar o processo de ensino e aprendizagem na disciplina Estrutura, Política e Gestão Educacional (EPGE) buscando comparar o ensino semipresencial (que faz uso da modalidade de Educação a Distância – EAD) com o ensino presencial. Esta comparação foi feita a partir dos resultados obtidos através da aplicação de instrumento do tipo escala de avaliação sobre a relação entre o conhecimento da legislação para atuar com educação básica e outros aspectos que envolvem a disciplina de graduação nos cursos de Licenciatura da Universidade Federal do Ceará no tocante à aprendizagem. Foram observadas duas turmas de EAD do Curso de Letras com estudantes matriculados nos polos de apoio presencial nos municípios de Ipueiras e Russas, e outras duas turmas de semestres distintos matriculados no mesmo curso de graduação presencial em Fortaleza. Para esse propósito, foi realizada uma revisão de literatura referente a temas tais como: EAD no Brasil, Cibercultura e Tecnologia, Legislação Educacional, Avaliação da Aprendizagem, conduzindo o estudo a uma reflexão mais aprofundada com relação à formação de licenciandos de diferentes áreas tendo em vista a necessidade de algum domínio por parte dos mesmos em temas relacionados à legislação educacional visando perspectivas de suas atuações futuras na educação básica. A natureza da investigação é tanto qualitativa quanto quantitativa, tendo em vista análise e busca na compreensão de fenômenos educacionais mensuráveis decorrentes da observação com os sujeitos envolvidos no processo de ensino e aprendizagem durante a disciplina. A amostra selecionada de acordo com a natureza da investigação foi constituída por estudantes de variados semestres matriculados na disciplina de EPGE das licenciaturas oferecidas pela Universidade Federal do Ceará e também através do Sistema Universidade Aberta do Brasil, totalizando 81 sujeitos. Os dados coletados revelaram como ponto importante a necessidade de leitura e estudo por parte dos estudantes da modalidade semipresencial para conteúdos específicos do programa da disciplina EPGE quanto à legislação educacional. A partir dos resultados da investigação é realizada uma breve discussão sobre os aspectos que envolvem a oferta da disciplina EPGE no currículo de cursos de licenciaturas destinados à formação de professores em nível superior considerando os limites e as possibilidades da avaliação da aprendizagem na forma presencial e em meios virtuais de aprendizagem

By the side of possibilities, there is the need to critically reflect on the government decision to finance, and even to incite distance education, as a more economic way to achieve, within different time and space, the greatest quantity of the population, trying to fill the gaps of the Brazilian school education. The research was made in the Biology Bachelor Course offered by the Pernambuco University (UPE), in the context of the Presential Support Pole of the Paraiba State University, located in the city of Campina Grande. Along this study, we intend to analyze the evaluation practice and the instruments of valuation available in the virtual environment of learning (AVA), used by the former professors in the learning evaluation of the contents offered by the reference course. The relevance of the discussion is to reflect about the results of distance education in the initial of the professor training. To perceive the possibilities and limitations concerning the technological resources available at the educational process, especially to the evaluation practice, is primordial in order to comprehend the contents of learning that can be explored by the professors and which is the dialogical relation that is firmed between professor, preceptor and student, in favor of the learning development and an effective and meaningful education. The qualitative research had the symbolic interacionism as a methodological-theoretical approach. We gathered informations through institutional documents, documental records, questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. Treating and analyzing the data we used the content analysis method (Bardin, 1977). As a theoretical basis, we relied on authors such as Zabala (1998, 1999), Aretio (2002), Hoffmann (2003, 2005), Silva, M. (2003, 2006), Belloni (2006), Luckesi (2008), Silva, J. (2008), Vasconcelos (2008) and Domingos (2009). It was evident the need to reflect about the educational practice of the professors and preceptors responsible for the academic distance learning, concerning the evaluation of the learning contents in a autonomous and innovatory way, identifying its influence in the development of values which are considered vital to a complete professor upbringing. The evaluation in a mediator approach is necessary to the reality of an online classroom, because of its character to promote the improvement of the action of the one who is teaching and the one Who is learning in an interactive, collaborative and cooperative perspective, seeking a transformative praxis. Involved in this formation, the bachelors will be able to promote the development of capacities and skills necessary to the complete learning of theirs future students, certifying the education for life, which is a perspective that includes the knowing, the knowing how to do and how to be, a living being with sustainable relations with the others and with nature / A educa??o a dist?ncia na sociedade contempor?nea vem se expandido, sobretudo na oferta de cursos de forma??o inicial docente. Ao lado das possibilidades, h? necessidade de refletir criticamente sobre a decis?o governamental de financiar e at? incentivar o ensino a dist?ncia como uma maneira mais econ?mica de atingir o m?ximo da popula??o em tempo e espa?o diversos, almejando com isso o preenchimento de lacunas na educa??o escolar brasileira. A pesquisa foi realizada no curso de Licenciatura em Ci?ncias Biol?gicas oferecido pela Universidade de Pernambuco (UPE), a partir do contexto do P?lo de Apoio Presencial da Universidade Estadual da Para?ba (UEPB) na cidade de Campina Grande. Neste estudo nos propomos a analisar a pr?tica avaliativa e os instrumentos de avalia??o dispon?veis no ambiente virtual de aprendizagem (AVA), utilizados pelos professores formadores na avalia??o da aprendizagem dos conte?dos oferecidos pelo curso em refer?ncia. A import?ncia dessa discuss?o ? refletir sobre os resultados do ensino a dist?ncia na forma??o inicial docente. Perceber as possibilidades e limita??es dos recursos tecnol?gicos dispon?veis ao processo educativo, e em especial a pr?tica avaliativa, ? primordial para compreendermos quais os conte?dos de aprendizagem podem ser explorados pelos docentes e qual a rela??o dial?gica que se firma entre professor, tutor e aluno em prol do desenvolvimento da aprendizagem com vistas a uma a??o educativa eficaz e significativa. A pesquisa qualitativa teve a abordagem te?rico-metodol?gica voltada para o interacionismo simb?lico. Reunimos informa??es atrav?s de documentos institucionais, ficha documental, question?rio e entrevista semiestruturada. Para o tratamento e an?lise dos dados utilizamos o m?todo da an?lise de conte?do (Bardin, 1977). Como embasamento te?rico apoiamo-nos entre outros autores, em Zabala (1998, 1999), Aretio (2002), Hoffmann (2003, 2005), Silva, M. (2003, 2006), Belloni (2006), Luckesi (2008), Silva, J. (2008), Vasconcelos (2008) e Domingos (2009). Ficou evidente a necessidade de refletir sobre o redimensionamento da pr?tica educativa dos professores e tutores respons?veis pela forma??o acad?mica a dist?ncia, no que concerne ? avalia??o dos conte?dos de aprendizagem numa perspectiva aut?noma e inovadora, identificando sua influ?ncia no desenvolvimento de valores imprescind?veis ? consolida??o de uma forma??o docente de qualidade. A avalia??o numa abordagem mediadora ? necess?ria para a realidade da sala de aula online pelo seu car?ter de promover a melhoria da a??o de quem ensina e de quem aprende numa perspectiva interativa, colaborativa e cooperativa visando uma pr?xis transformadora. Inseridos nessa forma??o, os licenciandos de Ci?ncias Biol?gicas tornar-se-?o capazes de promover o desenvolvimento de capacidades, compet?ncias e habilidades necess?rias ? forma??o integral dos seus futuros alunos, garantindo o educar para a vida, perspectiva esta que inclui o conhecer, o saber fazer e o saber ser, um ser vivo com rela??es sustent?veis com todos os outros e com a natureza

For this research that is qualitative were used as data collection the following instruments: questionnaires with the students, with the intention of doing a survey about their previous background related to the concept of function, a diagnosis test consisting of four activities relating to functions, a daily classroom and participant observation in which was reported all class events, as well as documents produced by students in resolutions of problems. This study intended to analyze the contribution of the Methodology of Teaching and Learning Evaluation through the Resolution of Problems for the construction of the concept of afim function by the High School students, for the application and development of the activities were followed the steps suggested by Onuchic and Allevato regarding the methodology of Problem Solving. Thus it is considered relevant to analyze the experiences of teaching specifically in this study, the Methodology of Teaching and Learning Math Evaluation, through the Resolution of Problems, particularly the concept of afim function. After the implementation of the activities and the results analyzed, it was noticed that the students had mainly difficulties regarding the interpretation of the statements of the problems proposed. However the collective work had a definitive role for carrying out the proposed activities and showed an extreme importance, without that, the results would not be the same. Also it was possible to verify during the development of the activities that the students have some difficulty in making written records of activities as well as the procedures used in the resolution of problems proposed. / Tem-se nesta dissertação o resultado de uma pesquisa realizada com 32 alunos de uma turma de 1º ano do Ensino Médio noturno que é concomitante com o ensino profissionalizante no Colégio Evangélico Panambi, de Panambi RS. Para a realização desta pesquisa de caráter qualitativo foram utilizados na coleta de dados os seguintes instrumentos: questionários com os alunos, com o intuito de fazer um levantamento acerca dos conhecimentos prévios relacionados ao conceito de função, um teste diagnóstico composto de quatro atividades referentes a funções, observação participante e diário de aula no qual foram relatados todos os acontecimentos ocorridos em classe, bem como documentos produzidos pelos alunos nas resoluções dos problemas. Nesta pesquisa pretendeu-se analisar a contribuição da Metodologia de Ensino-Aprendizagem-Avaliação através da Resolução de Problemas para a construção do conceito de função afim pelos alunos do ensino médio; para a aplicação e desenvolvimento das atividades foram seguidos os passos sugeridos por Onuchic e Allevato a respeito da metodologia de Resolução de Problemas. Assim considera-se relevante analisar de modo mais fundamentado as experiências de ensino e, nesta pesquisa, específicamente a Metodologia de Ensino-Aprendizagem-Avaliação de Matemática através da Resolução de Problemas, particularmente o conceito de função afim. Após a aplicação das atividades, e os resultados analisados, constatou-se que os alunos tinham dificuldades principalmente quanto à interpretação dos enunciados dos problemas propostos. Porém o trabalho coletivo teve um papel definitivo para a realização das atividades propostas e, demonstrou-se de extrema importância, sem o qual os resultados não seriam os mesmos. Também foi possível verificar durante o desenvolvimento das atividades que os alunos apresentam certa dificuldade em fazer registros escritos das atividades desenvolvidas bem como dos procedimentos utilizados na resolução dos problemas propostos. Com base nos resultados alcançados e nos depoimento dos alunos quanto às atividades, conclui-se que essa metodologia aproxima a matemática ao cotidiano do aluno, o que desperta maior interesse na realização das tarefas e consequentemente mais êxito na resolução das atividades.

Theoretical-empirical work is focused on innovation education with using cooperative learning. The theme of labour is evaluation in cooperative learning and his specifics. The theoretical part is devoted to the description of cooperative learning, school rating and especially the evaluation of cooperative activities. The empirical part is a report from the action research of own lessons at the second level of elementary school, describes the transformation of teaching by introducing work in cooperative groups and monitors pupils' involvement in teaching in relation to the evaluation criteria. Part of the research is an analysis of pupils' self-image and a reflection of cooperative activities.

Musical timbre transfer is the task of re-rendering the musical content of a given source using the rendering style of a target sound. The source keeps its musical content, e.g., pitch, microtiming, orchestration, and syncopation. I specifically focus on the task of transferring the style of percussive patterns extracted from polyphonic audio using a MelGAN-VC model [57] by training acoustic properties for each genre. Evaluating audio style transfer is challenging and typically requires user studies. An analytical methodology based on supervised and unsupervised learning including visualization for evaluating musical timbre transfer is proposed. The proposed methodology is used to evaluate the MelGAN-VC model for musical timbre transfer of drum tracks. The method uses audio features to analyze results of the timbre transfer based on classification probability from Random Forest classifier. And K-means algorithm can classify unlabeled instances using audio features and style-transformed results are visualized by t-SNE dimensionality reduction technique, which is helpful for interpreting relations between musical genres and comparing results from the Random Forest classifier. / Graduate

In 2016 employers hiring four-year college graduates indicate that 27.8% have deficiencies in written communication. Postsecondary learning objectives should focus on improving specific writing skills like grammar, sentence structure, and vocabulary usage for individual students and monitoring text readability as an overall score to measure learning outcomes. Web-based applications and the tools integrated into them have the potential to serve as a diagnostic solution for analyzing the text readability and writing skills of students. Organization and structuring of Canvas data was required before adding text readability and other writing skills analytics as part of the process to develop diagnostic learning analytics that interprets student writing skills in the learning management system. Decision modeling was used to capture and describe the specifics of literacy improvement decisions for instructors and administrators in a graphical notation and structured format.

This paper deals with a measure theoretical model for evaluation of e-learning programs. Based on methods of general measure theory an evaluation model is developed which can be used for assessment of complex target structures in context of e-learning programs. With the presented rating function target structures can be evaluated by a scoring value which indicates how the targets in sense of a given logical target structure has been reached. A procedure is developed for the estimation of scoring values for target structures based on adapted assessment checklists.

Volume 14 of publication series EINGEBETTETE, SELBSTORGANISIERENDE SYSTEME is devoted to the structure oriented evaluation of e-learning. For future knowledge society, beside creation of intelligent technologies, adapted methods of knowledge transfer are required. In this context e-learning becomes a key technology for development of any education system. E-learning is a complex process into which many different groups with specific tasks and roles are included. The dynamics of an e-learning process requires adjusted quality management. For that corresponding evaluation methods are needed. In the present work, Dr.Tudevdagva develops a new evaluation approach for e-learning. The advantage of her method is that in contrast to linear evaluation methods no weight factors are needed and the logical goal structure of an elearning process can be involved into evaluation. Based on general measure theory structure oriented score calculation rules are derived. The so obtained score function satisfies the same calculation rules as they are known from normalised measures. In statistical generalisation, these rules allow the structure oriented calculation of empirical evaluation scores based on checklist data. By these scores the quality can be described by which an e-learning has reached its total goal. Moreover, a consistent evaluation of embedded partial processes of an e-learning becomes possibly. The presented score calculation rules are part of a eight step evaluation model which is illustrated by pilot samples. U. Tudevdagva’s structure oriented evaluation model (SURE model) is by its embedding into the general measure theory quite universal applicable. In similar manner, an evaluation of efficiency of administration or organisation processes becomes possible.

In this study, senior certificate (standard 10) pupils' attainment of the cognitive and affective aims and objectives of the senior certificate mathematics curriculum was investigated. With regard to the attainment of the cognitive objectives and aims, senior certificate pupils' performance in their mathematics examination, in terms of three broad categories of cognitive abilities (lower level, middle level and higher level mathematical abilities) was analysed and examined. As no norms (criteria) for mathematical attainment in respect of these three categories of cognitive abilities could be identified, these norms had to be firstly developed by the researcher. However, suitable standardised scales were identified and administered to determine senior certificate pupils' attainment of the affective aims and objectives (attitude towards and interest in mathematics). Besides the quantitative analysis, qualitative assessments of senior certificate pupils' attainment of the cognitive and affective aims and objectives were also made using information obtained, by way of a questionnaire, from teachers of senior certificate mathematics classes. The main findings that emerged from this investigation were: * The senior certificate pupils are attaining the desired proficiency levels in the cognitive objectives and aims of the senior certificate mathematics curriculum. However, these pupils are not adequately attaining the affective aims and objectives of the mathematics curriculum. * Qualitative information elicited from senior certificate teachers of mathematics tends to support the above findings which were obtained from the quantitative analysis. * There is a need for curriculum development in certain areas of the senior certificate mathematics curriculum, particularly in Euclidean geometry, for standard grade pupils. In terms of the general findings, certain recommendations were also formulated. In several ways, the present research is a pioneering effort in evaluating the efficacy of the cognitive and affective aims and objectives of the senior certificate mathematics curriculum. It is hoped that this study will serve as a catalyst for future research. / Curriculum and Instructional Studies / D. Ed. (Didactics)

It was carried out at the State University of Londrina, July 2006 through May 2007, and is chiefly linked up to a research type named as Studies on Education. Firstly, one presents both a historical approach on the city and on the State University of Londrina. Secondly, one salvages not only some important features about the history of learning evaluation, learning-based theories, background-related evaluation into university teaching, but also an analysis regarding Political/Pedagogical Projects and courses selected. Thirdly, one shows the results of questionnaires which were applied to the graduation-spanning faculty of the university and based upon the National Center for Researches. Through the institution s documents and the professors? research replies scrutinized, one could dwell upon hurdles over the research referred to as how close the university s and the faculty s points of view may be. One also aims to verify any possible changes between graduation background and professors? evaluation practice and what theories are the basis for such a practice. Thus, this research ends up being important due to its bethink-causing elements on learning evaluation into university teaching, ways to enrich the subject analyzed as well as other views that may arise in order to develop new researches on learning evaluation. / Este trabalho apresenta resultados de pesquisa sobre a avalia??o da aprendizagem em cursos de gradua??o, desenvolvida na Universidade Estadual de Londrina, entre julho de 2006 a maio de 2007 e inserida na linha de pesquisa denominada Estudos em Avalia??o.
