In the theoretical part of the thesis I introduce the current education legislation related to the subject of religious education. Religion is a part of the educational process and has a fixed position in the curriculum. This subject must be taught by a specialist with a pedagogical and theological training who has the double role of an instructor and a person providing value orientation for his/her pupils. The role of the teacher is not making children "swot" the most important themes, but introducing them to the essential principles and ideas of Christianity. The educational process is thus superior to the actual contents, i.e. instructing children in a Christian way is the concrete objective of every catechist. Orienting children towards a moral life is a very difficult challenge. A number of motivational elements and educational tools can facilitate the process of instruction. Arguably, the single most important tool since the introduction of comprehensive educational systems has been the textbook. Textbooks have been the subject of research and this research has by now become an established scholarly discipline. The theoretical part informs about the structure of textbooks, their functions and practical use. An essential chapter of the thesis is the didactic analysis of selected textbooks, in...

Instituição católica confessional, alicerçada em princípios humanistas e relacionada à Província Marista do Rio Grande do Sul (PMRS), uma das associadas da União Marista do Brasil (UMBRASIL), pertencente ao Instituto Marista. Rede de Ensino privada com referência no cenário educacional gaúcho, traçou metas no Planejamento Estratégico (PE) 2012-2022 estabelecidas a partir dos apelos do 21º Capítulo Geral do Instituto Marista com vistas ao objetivo de sustentabilidade social e financeira. Como um dos meios para alcançar esse objetivo, implementam-se Documentos Norteadores como o Projeto Educativo Marista (PEM) e as Matrizes Curriculares do Brasil Marista se utilizando de instrumentos de avaliação em larga escala para avaliar a aprendizagem e a gestão da Rede e das Unidades. Este estudo se fundamenta em metodologia de Pesquisa quanti-qualitativa, no campo da Educação. Os dados do estudo empírico foram levantados por meio de documentos da PMRS, dados de relatórios e boletins das avaliações em larga escala Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio (Enem), Sistema Marista de Avaliação (SIMA) 2010 a 2014 e questionários aplicados aos gestores da RCMRS. A partir da análise de dados, demonstramos que a Rede de Colégios, mesmo servindo-se de estratégias de avaliação da aprendizagem e de gestão que apresentem também perspectiva de lógica mercantilista educacional, vem conseguindo trabalhar os resultados das avaliações em larga escala na dimensão diagnóstica, por meio de Planos de Ação Locais com vistas à melhoria da qualidade educacional das Unidades e, em consequência, da Rede. Na lógica das matrizes de referência das avaliações em larga escala, os resultados que estão sendo obtidos pela maioria dos Colégios da Rede Marista RS ainda não expressam melhoria na qualidade da educação que está sendo promovida e que está no horizonte estratégico da instituição. Por outro lado, constata-se que a Instituição vem crescendo nos últimos anos em número de estudantes, principalmente nos níveis iniciais, e que indicadores da identidade da Instituição também estão agregados na construção cultural das famílias, como indicadores de qualidade da educação. As lógicas humanista e neoliberal presentes no atual cenário das instituições católicas confessionais privadas, em especial da Instituição Marista, apontam que há uma problematização, no mínimo, inadiável de ser promovida. / This study had the aim to discuss about the evaluation in large-scale of Rede de Colégios Maristas - RS (RCMRS), a Catholic Confessional Institution that is grounded in human principles and that is related to the Província Marista do Rio Grande do Sul (PMRS), associated to the União Marista do Brasil (UMBRASIL), belonging to the Instituto Marista. This private school system with great reference in Rio Grande do Sul State (RS) educational scenery, traced goals in the Strategic Planning (PE) 2012-2022 established from the appeals of the 21st General Chapter of the Instituto Marista with views to the aim of social and financial sustainability. As a form to reach this goal, Guiding Documents as the Projeto Educativo Marista (PEM) and the Matrizes Curriculares do Brasil Marista are implemented by using the evaluation instrument in large-scale to evaluate the learning and the management of the network and its units.The study is based on the methodology of a quantitative and qualitative research. The data of the empiric study were collected through documents from PMRS, data of reports and bulletins of large-scale assessments like National High School Exam (Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio - Enem) and Marist Evaluation System (Sistema Marista de Avaliação - SIMA) 2010 to 2014 and questionnaires answered by managers of RCMRS. From the data analysis we demonstrate that this school system, even taking advantages from evaluations strategies of learning and management that also presents a logical and mercantilist educational perspective, has been able to work the results of the evaluations in a large-scale of diagnostic dimension, by the action local plans with the aim to improve the educational quality of the units and by this, to improve the network educational quality. In the line of the reference arrays of the assessments in large-scale, the results that are been obtained by the majority of the Rede de Colégios Marista in RS haven’t show the improvement on educational quality that has been promoted and that is the strategic horizon of the institution yet. In the other side, we note that the institution has been growing in recent years in the number of students, especially in the early levels and that the quality indicators of the institution also are aggregated in the family’s cultural construction, as indicators of quality education. The Humanist and Neoliberal logics present in the current scenario of private confessional catholic institutions, especially in Instituição Marista, show that, at least, there is an urgent problematic to be promoted.

Gli sviluppi tecnologici vissuti nell'ultimo quarto di secolo hanno determinato forti mutamenti non solo nella materialità dell'esistere, ma anche nella dimensione spirituale della persona. L'avvento della cittadinanza digitale ha obbligato ad un ripensamento del catalogo dei diritti e delle forme di esercizio degli stessi. La libertà religiosa, tanto nella sua dimensione individuale quanto in quella associata non solo ha subito l'influenza di tali cambiamenti, ma si è dimostrata in molti casi settore privilegiato per verificare la validità delle nuove forme di governo derivanti dallo sviluppo sempre più massiccio delle tecnologie informatiche. A partire, dunque, da un ripensamento dei rapporti tra diritto e religione sono stati individuati alcuni settori specifici di analisi al cui interno saggiare le nuove forme di governo elettronico, per comprendere le nuove declinazioni del diritto di libertà religiosa nella società digitale. Tali settori sono: la presenza delle confessioni nel sistema della stampa nazionale; il nuovo mondo di Internet e le problematiche connesse alla tutela dei marchi e del sentimento religioso; la presenza delle confessioni religiose nel sistema radio televisivo; la tutela dei dati sensibili religiosi nel nuovo Codice sulla privacy. / Last 25 years, technological developments have determined very important changes both on the material side and on the spiritual one of the people. The introduction of digital citizenship has obliged to rethink the bunch of rights and the way to apply them. The religious freedom, both individually and in association, has suffered the effects of these changes, but moreover has been a preferred sector where testing new governance rules needed to manage the innovations due to constantly increasing presence of information technologies in day by day life. Therefore, starting from a deep rethinking of the relationships between law and religion, some sectors of analysis, where testing new electronic governance rules, has been identified, in order to understand new evolutions of religious freedom rights in the digital society. These sectors are: presence of religious denominations in the national press; Internet world and issues related both to the trademark management and to religious sentiments; presence of religious denominations in radio-TV system; protection of religious sensitive personal data in agreement with the new privacy Code.

The genre of comics has had a tumultuous career throughout the twentieth century: it has careened from wildly popular to being perceived as the source of society’s ills. Despite having been relegated to the lowest rung of the artistic ladder for the better part of the twentieth century, comics has been gaining in quality and respectability over the last couple of decades. My introductory chapter provides a broad, basic introduction to the genre of comics––its historical development, its different forms, and a survey of comics criticism over the last thirty years. In chapter two I clarify the nature of comics by comparing it to literature, film, and pictorial art, thereby highlighting its hybrid nature. It has elements in common with all of these, and yet it is a distinct genre. My primary focus is on Chris Ware, whom I introduce in chapter three, a brilliant creator who has garnered widespread recognition and respect. His magnum opus is Jimmy Corrigan: The Smartest Kid on Earth, the story of four generations of Corrigan men, most of whom have been negligent in raising their children. Jimmy Corrigan, as a result, is an introverted, insecure thirty–something–year–old man. Among comics creators Ware is unusual in that his story does not address socio–political issues, like most of his peers, which I discuss in chapter four. Jimmy Corrigan is an isolated tale with a very specific focus. Ware’s narrative is somewhat like those of William Faulkner, whose stories have a narrow focus, revolving around the lives of the inhabitants of Yoknapatawpha county, rather than encompassing the vast landscape of national socio–political concerns. Also, in chapter five I explore the intriguing combination of realist and Gothic elements––normally at opposite ends of the generic continuum––that Ware merges in Jimmy Corrigan. This feature is especially interesting because it is another way that his work explores aspects of hybridity. Finally, in my conclusion I examine the current state of comics in American culture and its future prospects for development and success, as well as the potential for future comics criticism.

The diploma thesis is divided into two basic topics, in which it deals in a brief outline with the origin and development of confessional and ecclesiastical law in general and with development and mutual relation between confessional and ecclesiastical law in the territory of Czech lands since the arrival of the Cyril and Methodius until the establishment of the Czechoslovak Church. Further on it presents the timeline of sources of the "First" Constitution of the Czechoslovak Church (Ústava Církve československé). These sources are divided into the periods before and after the establishment of the Czechoslovak Church. The first period started with the Reform Program of František Náhlovský (Reformní program Františka Náhlovského) of 1848 followed by The Přerov Reform Program (Přerovský reformní program) of 1906, The Proposition of the Union of the Czech Catholic Clergy on the Renewal of the Catholic Church in the Czechoslovak Republic (Návrh Jednoty čsl. katolického duchovenstva na obnovu církve katolické v Republice československé) of 1919, Memorandum of the Delegation to Rome (Memorandum delegace do Říma) of 1919, Program of Platform Focus (Program Ohniska) of 1919 and Program of Reforms (Program reforem) in the Right of the Nation of 1920. The second period after the establishment of the...

Text in Afrikaans / I wanted to investigate the way people experienced confessional pastoral therapy by conducting a qualitative research study. The role of the pastor were examined as well as the effect of discourses of power and ethics in pastoral counseling. I interviewed clients who were counseled by pastors of the AFM Church (Apostolic Faith Mission). The research supposes that knowledge and power discourses have a major influence in pastoral counseling which is often not accounted for. I wanted to see how clients experienced the effects of these discourses of power and ethics. I furthermore wanted to see how these power discourses could result in clients feeling subordinate to the pastor and his knowledge and the effect that these feelings might have on them. The purpose of this study was not to generalize the experiences of the participants, but rather to set a contextual background of the experiences of power in confessional pastoral counseling. / Philosophy, Practical and Systematic Theology / M.

Studiens syfte är att undersöka hur nyanlända elever ser på religion utifrån två teman. Det första behandlar hur dessa elever positionerar sig till religiösa traditioner, samt på vilka sätt dessa positioner kan ha förändrats i diaspora. Det andra temat behandlar hur de nyanlända eleverna upplever religionskunskapsundervisningen i Sverige. Studiens resultat är baserat på kvalitativa intervjuer med sex nyanlända elever och deras lärare i religionskunskap. Intervjuerna har analyserats utifrån kritisk diskursanalys och ett postkolonialt perspektiv. Studiens resultat på det första temat visar hur de flesta av eleverna inte ser sig som religiösa, utan benämner sig som troende, och deras religionsutövning präglas av en stor variation. Av de sex eleverna kommer fem från en muslimsk bakgrund, och hos flera av de fem finns ett språk som tyder på stereotypisering av muslimer. Samtliga muslimska elever beskriver en förändring av tro och minskad praktik som ett led av att befinna sig i diaspora. Resultatet av det andra temat visar hur elevernas upplevelser av religionskunskapsundervisningen i Sverige generellt sett är positiv, men en elev har en negativ bild av undervisningen och menar att undervisningen leder till ateism. Undervisningen och läromedel upplevs som bra eller neutrala på att skildra islam, vilket inte stämmer överens med tidigare forskning, samtidigt som några av de muslimska eleverna anmärker på felaktigheter. / The aim of this study is to explore how recently immigrated pupils perceive religion based on two themes. The first theme deals with how these students position themselves in regard to religious traditions, and how these positions might have changed in the diaspora. The second theme deals with how the pupils experience Religious Education (RE) in Sweden. The results are based on semi-structured interviews with six recently immigrated pupils and their RE teacher. Critical discourse analysis and postcolonialism are used as theoretical and analytical approaches. The findings on the first theme indicate that most of the pupils do not see themselves as religious, and instead refer to themselves as believers, and their religious practice is characterised by a large variation. Five of the six pupils come from a muslim background, and the language these pupils use show signs of stereotyping muslims. All the muslim pupils describe a change in belief and a decrease in practice as a result of being in diaspora. The findings on the second theme indicate that the pupils generally have a positive experience of their RE in Sweden. One pupil had a negative view of the education, which was seen as a leading factor in becoming an atheist. The teaching and study materials used in the classroom were perceived as good or neutral in their depiction of islam, which does not match the findings of previous research, although some of the muslim pupils remarked on a few inaccuracies.

O estudo procura fazer uma análise dos pressupostos que fundamentam o Projeto de Restauração Católica na Diocese de Caxias do Sul, no período de 1934 a 1952. Os dados sobre as linhas norteadoras e os princípios cristãos e filosóficos, seguidos pelos colégios confessionais pioneiros em Caxias do Sul, foram levantados junto aos arquivos das instituições: Colégio São José, Escola Nossa Senhora do Carmo e Seminário Nossa Senhora Aparecida, e também consulta aos arquivos do Círculo Operário Caxiense, instituição que procurou, por meio da educação informal, ministrar cursos aos trabalhadores. As bases desses pressupostos, que vêm explícitos nesta pesquisa do mestrado em Educação da Universidade de Caxias do Sul, na linha de História e Filosofia da Educação, remontam ao Concílio de Trento, que unificou a doutrina, a disciplina e a prática da Igreja Católica. O fim do regime do Padroado no Brasil, mais a vinda de imigrantes e de congregações religiosas européias para o Brasil, no fim do século XIX, permitiram que esse Projeto se consolidasse no Rio Grande do Sul. Os mecanismos adotados por essas instituições favoreceram a coexistência colaborativa com o Estado laico e difundiram a importância de relações harmoniosas entre capital e trabalho para alcançar o desenvolvimento e combater o comunismo. As conclusões a que este estudo chegou é que a construção da proposta educativa desenvolvida pelas instituições religiosas, baseada na qualidade de ensino, no ambiente e disciplina escolar, nas atividades educativas complementares e na participação em atividades religiosas e sociais, contribuiu, de um lado, para o desenvolvimento político, social e cultural do município de Caxias do Sul e dos municípios da região da Serra Gaúcha; e, de outro lado, para o desenvolvimento do espírito comunitário, humano e fraterno, próprios do catolicismo, marcados nas populações dessas regiões. / Submitted by Marcelo Teixeira (mvteixeira@ucs.br) on 2014-06-02T16:24:45Z No. of bitstreams: 1 Dissertacao Roque Grazziotin.pdf: 5729155 bytes, checksum: 8831e09bda2a13b177fd7bc848bf51a7 (MD5) / Made available in DSpace on 2014-06-02T16:24:45Z (GMT).

The data about guidelines and Christian and philosophical principles followed by pioneer confessional schools in the city of Caxias do Sul were collected at the archives of the following institutions: Colégio São José, Escola Nossa Senhora do Carmo and Seminário Nossa Senhora Aparecida. Data were also collected from the archives of Círculo Operário Caxiense, an institution that, through informal education, tried to provide some courses to workers. The basis for these assumptions, which are explicit in this research for the Master´s in Education at the University of Caxias do Sul, in the research line for Education History and Philosophy, go farther back to the Council of Trent, which unified the doctrine, discipline and practice of the Catholic Church. The end of the regime of Ecclesiastical Patronage in Brazil, along with the arrival of immigrant and religious congregations to the country in the end of the XIX century, allowed this Project to consolidate in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. The mechanisms adopted by these institutions favored the collaborative coexistence with the lay State and helped spread the importance of harmonious relations between capital and work to reach development and fight communism. The conclusions reached by this study show that the construction of the educational proposal developed by the religious institutions, based on teaching quality, school environment and discipline, supplementary educational activities, and participation in social and religious activities contributed, on the one hand, for the political, social and cultural development of the city of Caxias do Sul and other cities and towns in the surrounding region known as Serra Gaúcha; and, on the other hand, contributed for the development of a communitarian, humane and fraternal spirit, which are peculiarities of Catholicism, and noticed in the populations in these regions.
