Orientador: Jefferson de Lima Picanço / Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Instituto de Geociências / Made available in DSpace on 2018-08-25T17:21:30Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 Goto_EricaAkemi_M.pdf: 2434424 bytes, checksum: d71a89d1c7e0e21eb6d76e865565159a (MD5) Previous issue date: 2014 / Resumo: As grandes cidades brasileiras, como é o caso do município de São Paulo, passaram por uma urbanização acelerada e desorganizada a partir dos anos 60, levando a ocupação de várzeas e morros, e consequente formação de diversas áreas de risco. Uma forma de contribuir para prevenção e mitigação de acidentes e desastres nesses locais é através de trabalhos educacionais, como as capacitações de educação não formal voltadas para moradores e técnicos que nesses locais atuam. Com o intuito de entender o papel dessas capacitações e propor diretrizes básicas, foi realizado um estudo dos cursos de educação não formal voltados para prevenção e mitigação de acidentes e desastres em áreas de risco a movimentos de massa oferecidos pela Prefeitura do Município de São Paulo (PMSP) nos anos de 2012 e 2013. Para este estudo, acompanharam-se três capacitações: "Percepção de risco", "Capacitação para Mapeamento e Gerenciamento de Áreas de Risco" e "Riscos Ambientais Urbanos: uma Abordagem Preventiva". Para melhor compreendê-las, foram escolhidos alguns indicadores a serem observados, como o público-alvo ao qual foram destinadas e qual atingiram, distribuição geográfica dentro do município, conteúdo e linguagem, uso ou não da pedagogia crítica do lugar, papel didático das saídas de campo e relação com o gerenciamento participativo de riscos proposto pela PMSP. Como metodologia de análise, elaborou-se e aplicou-se questionário, realizou-se entrevista com técnicos da PMSP, analisou-se o material didático e outros matérias cedidos pela PMSP e acompanharam-se as capacitações. Entende-se que essas capacitações são de suma importância, contribuindo para melhorar a percepção de risco dos moradores e técnicos da PMSP. Entretanto, para que elas consigam contribuir a longo prazo para prevenção e mitigação de acidentes e desastres é interessante que não sejam entendidas como atividades pontuais, e pelo contrário, que estejam integradas ao gerenciamento participativo de risco das comunidades em áreas de risco / Abstract: The Brazilian big cities, such as São Paulo, went through an accelerated and disorganized urbanization process after the 1960s. This urbanization process resulted in the construction of low-income housing units in valleys and on slopes, which lead to the formation of many hydrological risk areas. One way of mitigate and prevent accidents and disasters on those areas is with educational activities, like the non-formal courses developed to local inhabitants and municipality technicians who work on those at risk areas. With the goal of a better understanding of the role of those non-formal courses, the author developed a research on those types of courses given by Sao Paulo city municipality during 2012 and 2013. For this research, there were three types of courses studied: "Risk Perception", "Capacity for Risk Area Mapping and Management" and "Environmental Urban Risks: a Prevention Approach". During the research, there were some characteristics observed, such as proposal course target and final course target, geographic distribution of those courses, language and content of the courses, use or not of place conscious education, didactic role of the field activities and relationship with the risk management proposed by Sao Paulo city municipality. With this methodology, there was survey elaboration and application, interview with municipality technicians, didactical material and others materials related with the courses analysis and courses observation. Those types of courses are important to develop risk perception on local inhabitants and municipality technicians. Although, those courses can't be just punctual actions. They have to be put together with community risk management / Mestrado / Ensino e Historia de Ciencias da Terra / Mestra em Ensino e História de Ciências da Terra

D'une confrontation traumatisante à une rencontre libératrice : éducation non formelle et conditions d'une réciprocité relationnelle sourds-entendants / From a traumatic confrontation to a liberating meeting : non-formal education and reciprocity conditions in deaf and hearing people relations

Sargsyan-Sablong, Anna 06 November 2014 (has links)
Cette thèse s’intéresse des relations interpersonnelles entre les sourds et les entendants, qui partagent de multiples frontières : spatiales, sociales, ou intersubjectives. L’incompatibilité communicationnelle entre eux envoie aux barrières relationnelles et interactionnelles, générant des rapports déséquilibrés entre la société dominante entendante et la minorité sourde. D’une part dans son espace social le sourd est confronté aux incapacités d’expression authentique freinant son affirmation identitaire et affectent son image sociale. D’autre part l’entendant est heurté à des blocages communicationnels qui rendent son parcours émotionnellement éprouvant. Questionnant cet éternel processus d’échec communicationnel, l’objectif de ce travail est de mieux réfléchir à un rapprochement possible des sujets sourds et entendants au-delà du partage des connaissances linguistiques, et cela par le biais de transformation de l’espace social en celui d’apprentissage. La recherche a été réalisée dans le cadre de l’éducation non formelle, en mettant en place une rencontre multiculturelle, qui a réuni en 2011 des jeunes sourds et entendants de 18 à 30 ans, provenant de France, d’Arménie, d’Allemagne et de Biélorussie. Utilisant des outils pédagogiques adaptés, les participants ont été invités à créer leurs propres modes de communication, essayant de dépasser les barrières linguistiques, mais aussi celles représentationnelles et personnelles pour surmonter les obstacles qui les différencient. La recherche a été focalisée particulièrement sur le parcours du sujet entendant. Les analyses ont permis de modéliser le parcours observé de l’entendant dans un espace d’apprentissage, avec une possible évolution du sens projetée vers une tri-dimension spatiale et temporelle, c’est-à-dire Eros (sensitif-affectif), Logos (socio-cognitif), et Muthos (ouverture vers une dynamique de questionnement. / The purpose of this thesis is to focus on interpersonal relationships between deaf and hearing people who share multiple borders - spatial, social and intersubjective. The communicative incompatibility leads to relational and interactional barriers, generating an unbalanced relationship between the dominant hearing society and deaf minority. From one side, a deaf person constantly faces a social space where they’re not able to express themselves authentically, which hinders their identity affirmation and affects their social image. From the other side the hearing person encounters communicational obstacles that make their emotional experience difficult.Questioning the abovementioned eternal communicative failure process, the objective of this research study is to think about a possible deaf and hearing rapprochement beyond of sharing of language skills through the transformation of social spaces into learning ones. The current study was conducted in the context of non-formal education, by establishing a multicultural meeting of among, young deaf and hearing people from 18 to 30 years in France, Armenia, Germany and Belarus in 2011. Developing appropriate pedagogical tools, participants have been invited to create their own forms of communication, trying to overcome language barriers, but also the representational and personal ones, in order to overcome relational distances. This study particularly focused on the hearing participant’s personal experience. The analyses lead the researcher to model the observed hearing participant’s experiences of the learning space, in a possible evolution of sense, projected along spatial and temporal tri-dimension – Eros (sensory -emotional) , Logos (socio- cognitive) and Muthos (openness to new self-questioning capacities) .

Hlavní vedoucí dětského tábora - pedagog a manažer / Main camp leader - a pedagogue and manager

Nová, Iveta January 2016 (has links)
The Master's Thesis focuses on pedagogical and managerial tasks of children camps' main leader. The aim is to define these tasks and to analyse the position's official formal characteristics - professional qualification and experience - for camps organized by bodies that are not leisure time educational centres. The assumption here is that mostly the head chiefs do not hold professional qualification as there is no legal obligation. The Theory uses comparative method to classify camps as leisure time educative activity. Further, the history and legal and practical conditions of the camps are described. Pedagogical and managerial tasks of the head chiefs are explained together with desirable competences. Possible ways of gaining the professional qualification are presented. In the Research part the above stated assumption was supposed to be confirmed or rejected through a questionnaire and additional guided interviews. 103 respondents of the research were head chiefs of children camps organized in 2016 in South Bohemian Region, Czech Republic. Results' analysis rejected the stated assumption. It was proved that a greater-than-expected number of the camps' head chiefs are professionally qualified. At least 50 % of the respondents have the necessary pedagogical qualification together with suitable...

The VAE, or the need for ordering : an impossible quest? : an analysis of representation and translation processes in the Validation des Acquis de l'Expérience in a French University

Pouget, Mireille January 2011 (has links)
This study presents an analysis of the processes of representation and translation involved in the practice of the Validation des Acquis de l’Expérience (VAE), or Recognition of Prior Experiential Learning, in a French University. This analysis is based on a qualitative research using semi-structured interviews with VAE candidates, advisers and academic staff, and recorded interactions between candidates and their advisers, and the validation juries. The research was at first influenced by the life history and educational biographies perspective (Josso 2001; Dominicé 2002; Pineau 2002), which privileged a dialogic approach. This has led to the decision to let the candidates tell their story of ordering struggle, where the resistance, dissidence and controversies circulate within and around the VAE ‘object’. This study is interested in the ordering modes enacted through the VAE and their relational effects with subjectivities. The analysis draws on Callon’s (1986) four moments of translation, as a way to give an initial frame of reference for the research. It presents the actors’ voices in a sequence of accounts, disrupted by the researcher’s running commentaries. It also focusses on the role the portfolio plays in ‘ordering’ the heterogeneous elements of the candidates’ lives, subjecting them to a form of ‘disciplinary writing’ through ‘technologies of the self’, whereby subjectivities are mobilised into specific modes of ordering. It analyses how the VAE becomes a stabilized network (Star 1991), insisting on speaking with a unitary voice, erasing the multiplicity of selves and the messy realities of the candidates’ lives, until the heterogeneous elements of the network escape again. Finally the study seeks to investigate further the recognition of heterogeneity, the possibility of multiplicity of cultures and agencies, multiple identities.

Behandling och bemötande av barn och ungdomar diagnostiserade med ADHD : Med placering på HVB-hem / Behaviour towards and treatment of children and adolescents diagnosed with ADHD : In residential care

Sandqvist, Sandra, Bengtsson, Emmelie January 2021 (has links)
Title: Behaviour towards and treatment of children and adolescents diagnosed with ADHD: In residential care. This bachelor thesis studies the tension between an institution focused on a form of residential care of children and adolescents, which is called HVB- home and the opportunity to individualize the treatment and behaviour towards the child or adolescent. The study has especially targeted children and adolescents with Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) living in HVB- homes in Sweden. The thesis has a qualitative study design and uses semi structured interviews. Six employees from HVB- homes working directly with the children answered questions and spoke freely to the authors of the study. Five themes were used to analyse the results. The authors explain the results with Michel Foucault power theories and Erving Goffman's "On the Characteristics of Total Institutions". It was found that the education level of the employees affected the care, treatment and behaviour towards children with ADHD. A majority of the interviewees lack a college degree. Employees with lower formal education expressed those colleagues with informal competence were prone to easier fit in the HVB- home environment. Most of the interviewees expressed frustration over Swedish laws, guidelines and rules which only allow treatment of socially unacceptable behaviour and prohibit care and treatment of diagnoses like ADHD. The majority of the interviewees favoured what's best for the group instead of adapting treatment and behaviour towards the individual.

Understanding adult education: Case-studies of three University-based adult education certificate programmes.

Thaver, Beverley Martha January 2000 (has links)
Philosophiae Doctor - PhD / By the mid 1980s the Nationalist Party had sought to salvage almost four decades of apartheid policies that were based on white supremacy. In this regard it engaged in dual strategies of repression and reform. The state's strategies were challenged by organisations and movements within civil society. In this regard a number of community-based organisation mushroomed both nationally and regionally. These organisations were co-ordinated by adult political activists most of whom were perceived to lack the necessary skills to manage organisation more effectively. In this conjuncture, the Adult Education Departments at five South African universities developed certificate-level programmes to address this gap. This study focuses on three such programmes, the Community Adult Education Programme, based at the University of Cape Town, the Certificate for Educators of Adults at the University of the Western Cape, and the Community Adult Educators Training Course based at the University of Natal- Pietermaritzburg. This study investigates the social and political conditions that gave rise to the three certificate programmes. It also investigates the relationship between the external social and political conditions and the internal curriculum practices of the certificates. In this process it analyses the nature of the relationship and identifies shifts in the programmes and the curriculum practices between 1986 and 1996. The study uses a qualitative approach and draws on elements of critical theory and social constructionism to understand the data gleaned from interviews and documents. This study argues that all three certificate programmes have directly been tied into the social political context in South Africa between 1986 and 1996. In this decade the study argues, there are three distinct political periods, namely repression/reform, negotiations and fragile democracy. It argues that distinct features from each period have shaped the certificates in different ways. Along with the national political conditions as manifest at the level of the state, the private sector and civil society there are local and institutional dynamics that contribute to the different forms assumed by these certificates. The study further argues that the external social - political conditions from each period have demarcated and fixed the boundaries for the certificates as a social practice. In this process the curriculum practices for each period permitted certain words and practices in preference to others. Consequently, it argues that the external and internal social and political dimensions together construct the certificates as a discourse. This study is based on a belief that the role of a certificate practitioner is to creatively locate the day to day practices within different theoretical frameworks in order to advance studies into sites of adult education practices. This study represents a step in such a direction.
