campos_db_me_rcla.pdf: 652819 bytes, checksum: 4a13a15a4856bd904040f0ca23266caa (MD5) / Secretaria de Educação do Estado de São Paulo / Professores são potencialmente educadores ambientais no ensino formal, mas para que atuem como tal é necessário que ocorra um processo de identificação pessoal e profissional com o ambiental durante a sua trajetória de vida. Segundo Carvalho (2004), professores que passam a cultivar idéias e sensibilidades ecológicas em sua prática educativa estão sendo portadores dos ideais do sujeito ecológico. O sujeito ecológico representa um tipo ideal, que possui um conjunto de atributos e valores ecológicos, constituindo um parâmetro orientador de escolhas e estilos de vida. Este trabalho buscou traçar o perfil do professor de Biologia enquanto sujeito ecológico, explorando a visão do professor em relação à Temática Ambiental e o seu relacionamento pessoal e profissional com ela. Nove professores da rede pública de ensino participaram da pesquisa, onde por meio do emprego de entrevistas semiestruturadas e análise documental, identificamos quais características do sujeito ecológico esses professores apresentam, as vias de acesso rumo à identificação com o ambiental, os aspectos da Temática Ambiental que consideram significativos e que dimensões desta temática os professores contemplam em seu trabalho. Nossos dados demonstraram que existe uma estreita relação entre o grau de aproximação do professor em relação às características que compõem o sujeito ecológico e o trabalho docente em relação à Temática Ambiental. A militância como característica preponderante seguida pelas características dela derivadas, como a motivação, o envolvimento pessoal, a persistência, a superação e a paixão identificadas nos professores colaboradores à medida que iam se aproximando em maior grau do tipo ideal, permitiu-nos construir um novo perfil de sujeito ecológico. Os dados apontaram que a opção pela Temática Ambiental e o processo de identificação... / Teachers are potentially environmental educators in the formal education, but for acting like that it is necessary that a personal identification and a professional process with the environment occur during their trajectory of life. According to Carvalho (2004), teachers who start to have ecological ideas and feelings in their practical performance carry on the ideals of the sujeito ecológico. The sujeito ecológico represents an ideal type, who has an ecological set of attributes and values, which are a position parameter of choices and styles of life. This paper aimed to draw the profile of the biology teacher as a sujeito ecológico, exploring the vision of the teacher regarding the Environmental Thematic and his personal and professional relationship with it. Nine teachers from the public schools had participated of the research, where through half-structuralized interviews and documental analysis, we could identify which characteristics of the sujeito ecológico these teachers present, the access ways to the their identification with the environment, which aspects from the Environmental Thematic they consider significant and which dimensions of this thematic the teachers contemplate in their work. Our data had demonstrated that there is a strict relation between the approach level of the teacher relative to the characteristics that compose the sujeito ecológico and the teaching work relative to the Environmental Thematic. The militancy as predominant characteristic followed by its own characteristics, like motivation, personal involvement, persistence, overcoming and passion identified in the teachers according to their approaching to the ideal subject, allowed us to get a new sujeito ecológico profile. The data had aimed that the option for the Environmental Thematic and the process of identification through the field had occurred in different moments...

O museu de ciÃncia como cenÃrio da formaÃÃo docente: saberes e concepÃÃes de licenciandos mediadores do Museu Seara da CiÃnciaMaria Cleidiane Barbosa da Silva 00 July 2018 (has links)
nÃo hà / A presente pesquisa surgiu da necessidade de compreender o museu de ciÃncia como instituiÃÃo de divulgaÃÃo cientÃfica que contribui para a formaÃÃo docente. O principal objetivo da pesquisa consistiu em identificar as contribuiÃÃes do museu Seara da CiÃncia para a formaÃÃo docente na Ãrea de CiÃncias da Natureza. O suporte teÃrico que fundamenta as discussÃes reporta à conceitos do campo da EducaÃÃo em museus de ciÃncias representados por Marandino (2001, 2003, 2008), Falk e Dierking (1992) e Queiroz et al., (2002) em diÃlogo com os Saberes Docentes proposto por Tardif (2014) e Carvalho e Gil-PÃrez (1995). A pesquisa foi realizada no museu Seara da CiÃncia, ÃrgÃo de divulgaÃÃo cientÃfica e tecnolÃgica da Universidade Federal do Cearà (UFC). Participaram da pesquisa seis bolsistas da Seara da CiÃncia â licenciandos dos cursos de QuÃmica, FÃsica e CiÃncias BiolÃgicas da UFC. Trata-se de uma pesquisa alicerÃada pela abordagem qualitativa do tipo descritiva e explicativa. O mÃtodo de pesquisa adotado foi o Estudo de Caso. As tÃcnicas de coleta de dados utilizadas foram anÃlise documental, observaÃÃo e entrevista semiestruturada. Os resultados mostram que a perspectiva de formaÃÃo docente identificada na Seara da CiÃncia tem como referÃncia os saberes mobilizados nas atividades de divulgaÃÃo cientÃfica mediada pelos bolsistas. à no papel de mediador que os licenciandos entram em contato com a cultura cientÃfica do museu e compartilham saberes com a escola e com a formaÃÃo em ciÃncia, experiÃncia importante para a construÃÃo de concepÃÃes que dÃo origem aos conceitos de EducaÃÃo, CiÃncia e DivulgaÃÃo CientÃfica. Observou-se que a perspectiva de formaÃÃo docente no museu em estudo sofre interferÃncias dos ÃrgÃos administradores das Bolsas de ExtensÃo e IniciaÃÃo AcadÃmica. Destaca-se como pontos conclusivos que o museu Seara da CiÃncia contribui para a formaÃÃo docente em CiÃncias ao ressignificar concepÃÃes sobre o ensino e aprendizagem de ciÃncias que ocorrem fora dos espaÃos de educaÃÃo formal. Entende-se que a formaÃÃo para a docÃncia na Ãrea de CiÃncias da Natureza nÃo se limita a formaÃÃo acadÃmica, no Ãmbito dos cursos de licenciaturas, mas experiÃncias relacionadas a esta, como aÃÃes de extensÃo universitÃria e estÃgio em espaÃos de educaÃÃo nÃo formal. / The current research was outlined from the need to understand science museum as an institution that promotes science and contributes with the formation of educators. The main goal of this research was to identify the general contribution of the science museum Seara da CiÃnca for the formation of educators of natural sciences. The theoretical rationale that supports the discussion connects concepts from the field of education on science museums, such as the contributions of Marandino (2001, 2003, 2008, 2009); Falk and Dierking (1992) and Queiroz et al., (2002) in dialogue with the teaching knowledge by Tardif (2014) and Carvalho and Gil-PÃrez (1995). The research was conducted in the science museum Seara da CiÃnca, a promoter of science and technology of the Federal University of Ceara (UFC). The subjects of the research were six scholarship holders who are undergraduate students of the programs of Chemical, Physics and Biological Sciences from the UFC. The research is based on the qualitative, descriptive and explanatory approaches. The adopted method of research is a Case of Study. The procedures of data collecting were: documental analyses, observation and semi-structured interviewing. The results show that the context of educatorsâ formation identified at the Seara da CiÃncia is based on the assembled knowledge in the activities of science promotion mediated by the scholarship holders. As mediators, the scholarship holders get in touch with the scientific culture of the science museum and share their knowledge with visiting schools and with the formation in science, which are important experiences to build-up perceptions that create the concepts of Education, Science and Scientific Promotion. It was observed that the framework of educatorsâ formation receives interference from sectors that manage the scholarships devoted to Extension and Academic Initiation. The main conclusions highlight that the science museum Seara da CiÃncia supports the formation of science educators through the reshaping of the meaning on teaching and learning of science that occurs outside the spaces of formal education. It is understood that the formation of educators in the field of natural sciences is not limited to the academia during the undergraduate programs, it should also include other relating experiences, such as actions in extension centers and internships in non-formal educational spaces.

Previous issue date: 2013 / Resumo: O presente estudo analisa a atuação dos professores de arte, em sala de aula, em relação ao corpo da criança, buscando compreender os espaços possíveis para que o corpo se manifeste e se expresse. Parte do princípio de que a arte é relevante para o desenvolvimento da corporeidade da criança e da constatação de que na prática escolar há um distanciamento do trabalho corporal. Apoio o estudo em referências como Vygotsky (2008), Gonçalves (1994), Le Breton (2007), Strazzacappa (2006), Barbosa (1997) e Duarte Jr. (2010). Como método para investigação foram utilizadas entrevistas com professores de arte da rede pública de Ensino Fundamental da cidade de Várzea Paulista/SP. Contrariando algumas hipóteses levantadas inicialmente, percebe-se que a distância entre a teoria e a prática dos professores de arte já não é tão acentuada quanto se supunha, apesar da existência de dificuldades, por parte dos mesmos, em estimular a expressão corporal dos alunos. Constata-se que a busca individual dos professores, unida ao trabalho de formação continuada, potencializam a criatividade e a construção de conhecimento, aproximando a visualidade e a corporeidade em sua atuação pedagógica, permitindo o desenvolvimento do ensino de arte que priorize a educação dos sentidos. / Abstract: This study analyzes the role of art teachers in the classroom, in relation to the child's body, trying to understand the possible spaces for the body to manifest and express yourself. Assumes that art is relevant to the development of the corporeality of the child and the realization that in practice there is a detachment of the body work in the school. Support for the study references as Vygotsky (2008), Gonçalves (1994), Le Breton (2007), Strazzacappa (2006), Barbosa (1997) and Duarte Jr. (2010). As a method for research interviews were used with art teachers in the public elementary school in the city of Várzea Paulista / SP. Contrary to some hypotheses initially realize that the gap between the theory and practice of art teachers is not as strong as previously thought, despite the difficulties, by the same, to stimulate the body language of the students. It appears that the pursuit of individual teachers, coupled with work continuing education, enhance creativity and knowledge building, approaching visuality and embodiment in their pedagogical performance, enabling the development of arts education that prioritizes the education of the senses. / Mestrado / Educação, Conhecimento, Linguagem e Arte / Mestra em Educação

Environmental education offered by Delta Environmental Centre : an evaluation case study of a programme in environmental educationShongwe, Doctor B. 10 September 2012 (has links)
D.Ed. / This research project lasting from 1994-1996 is a comprehensive description and evaluation of the environmental education programme offered at Delta Environmental Centre. It is an evaluative case study of a progamme in environmental education. The principal aim of the project was to evaluate the environmental education programme offered by Delta. This was achieved through a comprehensive description and documentation of the various features/aspects of the programme. Because the research is based upon the Fourth Generation Evaluation approach (Guba & Lincoln 1989:50/252), the views, claims, concerns of the Delta Environmental Education Officers and other significant stakeholders form the major part of the research. Through interviews, factors influencing the programme and some aspects of the Centre were elicited by the research process. Both the Environmental Education Officers and the other stakeholders (Sponsors, the Honorary President and founder of the Centre, the Chairman, the former Chief Executive of Delta and the former Chief Educationalist) made important and valid recommendations which, if taken serious by the management of the Centre, will influence the future direction of the Centre. From the available documents such as internal educational reports, newsletters, magazines and pamphlets, together with the interviews conducted, the history and development of the Centre and its environmental education activities was revealed. The Centre has changed over the years and the changes are reflected on the many mission statements the Centre has produced. These are reviewed on an ongoing basis to keep up with changes in environmental education. This has led to very successful educational activities reflected in the methods employed by the Officers and the content of the programme. The methodology is central to the teaching and learning at the Centre. It emerged from the interviews, that the instructional strategies are varied and geared to different age levels and backgrounds of the groups. Creative teaching methods such as dramatisation, games and role play (Shongwe 1992b:44) are used very effectively at the Centre. In addition to such methods is observation, self-discovery, hands-on activities and experiential learning where pupils are given the opportunity to experience and encounter natural features of Delta Park. The pupils visiting the Centre bring along certain experiences, needs and expectations that should be recognised by the Environmental Education Officers if effective teaching and learning is to be achieved. The pupils, through a questionnaire, articulate these and this is one area that needs further investigation and formal research. The role of the Centre was explained, priorities were set and recommendations for improvement were made by both the Environmental Education Officers and the other stakeholders. It is recommended that the Centre should go beyond the teaching foundations of ecology to issues that are more relevent to the day to day living of people. The programme should incorporate more problem solving skills that will assist the pupils to solve real problems back at home. Teachers should be exposed to environmental management techniques which might be translated into the promotion of environmental values and ethics as part of the day to day running of schools. Techniques such as how to draw and implement an Environmental Management System (EMS), an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) and to conducts environmental audits at school be promoted. The programme has changed over the years for the better. Among other factors, the working conditions, the personality of the Officers and their outonomy, are the main contributing factors influencing the effectiveness of the Centre and its environmental education programme. These are unique findings as there is no evidence from literature that this has ever been articulated. The research confirms the relevance of qualitative research and the use of the case study approach as most appropriate for research in environmental education. Fourth Generation Evaluation is also most suitable for an evaluation of an environmental education programme. Finally, the research recognises the contributions by the Centre towards the development of environmental education in this country on non-formal basis and argues for a balance between this approach and formal education. The research concludes that the environmental education programme at Delta is effective and based upon sound environmental and educational principles. High and strong commendations to the staff and the management of the Centre. The Centre is one of the most important and well suited establishment to facilitate the incorporation of environmental education in the formal curriculum.

Radio en uitsaaitelevisie in nie-formele opvoeding en voorligting in SWA/NamibiëPotgieter, André Johannes 05 November 2014 (has links)
M.Ed. (Media Studies) / The pertinent question which is asked in this study is what is intended by the word "education" in a broadcasting context ; especially if a broadcasting corporation such as the SWABC has explicitly declared its selfimposed task to be to en tertain, to inform and to educate. It is being investigated how such education should be provided ; how it should be organised and managed ; and whether it is at all the task of the SWABC to educate, or whether the corporation is not merely entertainment and information medium. It seems that since the development of radio in the twenties and of television in the fifties both radio and TV have been used for educational, instructional and guidance purposes. From the onset the formal component and the objectives were more clearly defined than the non-formal, which have only in recent years become better defined and have taken form as far as domain , methods, target, contents and purpose are concerned. Non-formal ER and ETV are specialised broadcasting disciplines which have developed a systematic and special methodology whereby programmes modelled on scientifically identified learning needs in the community are planned, produced, broadcast and utiIised. This is more than just education; it has to be instructional in the broadest sense of the word. Knowledge and expertise invaluable to the human existence have to be conveyed. It also includes values and norms. Non-formal ER and ETV are targeted at adults and non-adults outside a school and tertiary educational context. It moves on both the pedagogical and the andragogical terrains and as a broadcasting discipline will have to draw from both pedagogy and the andragogy. Non-formal ER and ETV cannot be planned and operated in isolation by the SWABC. It has to issue forth from a national educational and development strategy. Learning deficiencies and objectives have to be determined and formulated on a national level.

Integrated nonformal education in Zambia : the case of Chipata DistrictMumba, Elizabeth Cisece January 1987 (has links)
This research was concerned with integrated nonformal education programmes in Zambia. The purposes of the research were: (1) to identify factors thought by administrators to facilitate and hinder the implementation
of integrated nonformal education programmes; (2) to establish the relative influence of each factor; (3) to determine the perceived degree of integration from the perspective of four administrative levels; and (4) to determine skills and knowledge acquired from integrated nonformal education programmes through the perceptions of participants. Critical incident interviews and questionnaires were used to gather data from administrators, extension workers and programme participants in Chipata District of Eastern Zambia. Integrated Rural Development Programmes had been in operation since 1972.
The critical incident technique was used to interview seventy-seven administrators and extension workers at four administrative levels -national, provincial, district and local. Data from the interviews were used to identify a total of eight factors that were thought to facilitate implementation of integrated nonformal education programmes and nine factors that were thought to hinder implementation of integrated nonformal education programmes. Both facilitating and hindering factors were ranked for each administrative level. Data from questionnaires were used to determine the perceived degree of vertical and horizontal integration from the perspectives of four administrative levels as well as to determine outcomes of integration, through perceptions of programme participants.
A total of 106 administrators and extension workers responded to the Administrators' Questionnaire; 50 responded to the Local Level Questionnaire;
and 77 selected participants around three local sites answered the Participants' Questionnaire. Survey questionnaires were analyzed using descriptive statistics and one-way analysis of variance to determine whether there were any differences between administrative groups. The major findings that emerged from the study were these:
1. Factors perceived as facilitating and hindering implementation of integrated nonformal education programmes rank differently according to the administrative level of respondents. For administrators at three administrative levels (national, provincial and district) seminars/workshops and training facilities is a powerful facilitating factor. At local level, however, administrators ranked seminars/ workshops fourth as a factor facilitating successful implementation. In this research, inadequate skilled personnel ranked as the highest hindering factor at three administrative levels (national, provincial and district) but ranked fourth at local level.
2. Vertical integration is positively correlated with horizontal integration.
3. Administrators at the national level believe that a higher degree of vertical and horizontal integration exists in integrated programmes than do administrators of the other three administrative levels.
4. The small number of extension workers and their inability to adequately cover their constituency, seriously affect the impact of integrated nonformal education programmes.
Based on the results of the study, recommendations for theory, further research, and for practice are presented. / Education, Faculty of / Educational Studies (EDST), Department of / Graduate

Students in alternative public high schools: educational histories prior to alternative school entryMoilanen, Carolyn 01 January 1986 (has links)
The study was designed to describe an urban district's alternative high school population in terms of a conceptual framework drawn from three bodies of literature: dropout studies, supplementary/compensatory education, and alternative schools studies. Educational histories prior to alternative school entry were traced through district records and documents for 757 students and a focused interview was conducted with 81 students in order to obtain their perceptions of both regular and alternative educational experiences during their school careers. A qualitative data analysis was conducted to determine the study population fit with traditional descriptors for high-risk, to examine district responses in terms of educational program experiences in both regular and alternative schools, and to obtain insights into possible relationships between the two. Overall, the sample population most clearly matched traditional personal/social descriptors for potential dropout/high-risk in terms of sex representation, between-district mobility, and because they had experienced some period of dropout. Nearly half the sample had been suspended at least once during district enrollment. There was less fit in terms of grade-level representation, minority enrollment and school achievement. Larger numbers of eleventh and twelfth graders were enrolled than the literature would suggest. Minority students, traditionally over-represented among dropouts, are under-represented in the sample programs. As a group, the population is achieving in terms of basic skills competencies tests, but over half the sample has a history of participation in supplementary/compensatory and/or other alternative programs early in their careers. Students described teachers as the most critical component of their educational experience. While an instructional "helping" relationship and its consistent contribution to student success was often noted, a more personalized teacher-student relationship was mentioned even more frequently. Students identified early in their careers for supplementary/compensatory programs reported an affective as well as achievement-oriented dimension in those experiences, and described themselves as learners dependent upon the kind and level of individualized help and attention received in those settings and in the alternative setting as well.
