Four hundred and eight casual relief teachers (CRTs) and 670 permanent teachers from government, independent, and Catholic primary schools and secondary schools in and around metropolitan Melbourne were surveyed using the researcher-developed Issues in Teaching Questionnaire (ITQ) in order to assess their attitudes, perceptions, and experiences in relation to 10 areas of concern including: job security, provisions and facilities, information and communication, lesson management, status, relationships with the school community, relationships with students, student management, job satisfaction, and job stress. These 10 areas of concern were derived from the literature regarding casual relief teaching, which comprised of various anecdotal, published, and unpublished sources. Classical test theory methods (e.g., Cronbach¡¦s ƒÑ and exploratory factor analysis) were used to determine the psychometric properties of the survey instrument, which indicated that the ITQ pos sessed excellent internal reliability and construct validity, and confirmed the existence of an ¡§in-class¡¨ factor and an ¡§out-of-class¡¨ factor. Using descriptive and multivariate inferential statistics, the responses of the CRTs and the permanent teachers were analysed. By comparison with the other group characteristics, employment status (i.e., CRT or permanent teacher) was the best predictor of scores on the ITQ. The CRTs reported significantly more positive attitudes, perceptions, and experiences regarding job stress (i.e., less job stress) compared with the permanent teachers, whereas the permanent teachers reported significantly more positive attitudes, perceptions, and experiences across all other areas of concern compared with the CRTs. When the responses of the CRTs and the permanent teachers were compared on a scale of magnitude (i.e., effect size), much larger effects were observed for the ¡§out-of-class¡¨ concerns (e.g., Information and Communication, Provisions and Facilities, Lesson Manageme nt, Relationships with the School Community, Status, Job Security, and Job Satisfaction subscales) compared with the ¡§in-class¡¨ concerns (e.g., Relationships with Students, Student Management, and Job Stress subscales). Although many parallels were found between the CRTs and the permanent teachers in terms of their general classroom concerns, substantial differences existed between the two groups in relation to their concerns in the wider school context. Of particular importance were the considerable differences between the CRTs and the permanent teachers in terms of their employment conditions, and how they are currently being accommodated in schools and integrated into school communities. In these regards, CRTs are not receiving professional parity with their permanent counterparts. Overall, the results of this study (a) provide evidence of a psychometrically sound instrument for assessing the attitudes, perceptions, and experiences of CRTs and permanent teachers across a range of school settings, (b) hi ghlight the importance of employment status (i.e., CRT or permanent teacher) as a predictor of the ITQ subscales compared with the other group characteristics, and (c) present comprehensive and convincing evidence on the similarities and differences between the teaching experiences of CRTs and permanent teachers.

Para tanto, foram coletados no Currículo Lattes dos docentes permanentes dos 47 programas de pós-graduação que compuseram a amostra, informações sobre a produção de artigos completos publicados em periódicos de cada um para o período analisado. Após tabuladas, essas informações serviram de base, não somente para analisar a produção científica dos docentes permanentes, através de indicadores como pontuação total, pontuação média por docente, desvio-padrão da pontuação média, porcentual de professores produtivos e nível de inserção internacional, a partir do Estrato Qualis juntamente com a pontuação estabelecida pela Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) para a área de Economia no ano de 2012, mas também observar como se deu a formação das redes de produção científica entre esses professores permanentes e a interação entre os seus atores, por meio de alguns dos principais indicadores de centralidade, tais como Grau de Centralidade, Índice de Centralização, Grau de Intermediação e Grau de Proximidade. Cabe ressaltar que para a análise das redes sociais e co-autorias das publicações foi utilizado neste trabalho o software Ucinet 6 for Windows versão 6.445 (BORGATTI; EVERETT; FREEMAN, 2002), em concomitância com o NetDraw versão 2.123 (BORGATTI, 2002), programa responsável por ilustrar essas redes através de gráficos. Os resultados apontaram que, apesar da diminuição progressiva no número de atores para cada período analisado, ou seja, 2004-2006, 2007-2009 e 2010-2011, a formatação das redes de produção dos docentes permanentes dos programas de pós-graduação stricto sensu em Economia no Brasil não se alterou de forma significativa, ressaltando-se a incidência de diversos grupos atuando de forma isolada, predominantemente em trios ou duplas, e lotados no mesmo programa de pós-graduação, e algumas redes formadas ao redor de um único ator que, por sua posição estratégica, apresentou boa quantidade de interligações com outros atores. / It was proposed in this study to analyze the scientific production of permanent teachers of stricto sensu graduate programs in Economics in Brazil, as well as to observe the formation of existing production networks among these teachers in the period from 2004 to 2011. For both, were collected at permanent teachers Lattes of 47 postgraduate programs that composed the sample, information on production of full papers published in journal seach one for the period under examination. After scheduled, this information formed the basis, not only to analyze the scientific production of permanent teachers, through indicators such as total score, average score for teaching staff, standard deviation of the mean score, percentage of productive teachers and international insertion level, from Qualis Stratum along with the score established by the Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) to the Economy in the year 2012but also look at how the formation of scientific production networks among these permanent teachers and interaction among its actors, through some of the main indicators of centrality, such as degree of Centrality index of centralization, degree of Proximity and degree of Intermediation. It is noteworthy that for the analysis of social networks and authorship of publications was used in this work the software Ucinet 6,445 for Windows version 6 (BORGATTI; EVERETT; FREEMAN, 2002), in concomitance with the NetDraw 2,123 version (BORGATTI, 2002) program responsible for illustrating these networks through graphs. The results showed that, despite the progressive decline in the number of actors for each analyzed period, that is, 2004-2006, 2007-2009 and 2010-2011, the formatting of the production networks of permanent teachers of stricto sensu graduate programs in economics in Brazil has not changed significantly, underscoring the incidence of various groups working in isolation, predominantly in trios or pairs, and crowded in the same graduate program, and some networks formed around a single actor who, by its strategic position, showed good amount of interconnections with other actors.

As general purpose attempts to identify the knowledge and practices of those teachers proposal for small children in Art. As specific purposes, to analyze possibilities in Visual Art knowledge construction in permanent and inservice teachers training and to understand how the knowledge built in this space unfolds in the practices with children from 4 -5 years of age. Carried out with 7 teachers and the Pedagogical Assistant (AP) the research took place in a Municipal Early Childhood Education and Elementary School (EMEIEF), in Santo André, named by us: EMEIEF Kaleidoscope. A data collection, as methodological procedure, from characterization forms; questionnaires; formative meetings; recorded and transcribed meetings; photographic records of teachers and children production; reading and analysis of the Pedagogical Political Project and plannings. The Content Analysis proposed by Bardin (2016) was used to analyze the data. The theoretical reference was organized as follows: for the historical rescue of the Teaching of Art in Brazil and its foundations we hold ourselves in Ana Mae Barbosa (2002, 2008, 2012) and other scholars of the History of Education. In relation to Art in the interface with the culture of childhood we count on Ana Lúcia Goulart de Faria (2002, 2013, 2015) and the Brazilian legislation; Vygotsky (1998, 1999, 2001) brings contributions to the understanding of children's development and Art; Paulo Freire (1982, 1987, 1992, 1996, 1997, 2001, 2005) and Tardif (2002, 2006) refer us to important reflections on the conscience of the teacher profession, viewing to highlight essential basis of teaching, training and its challenges. As a result we find that the practices and discourses of teachers are reflections of their personal and professional paths. The consciousness of the fragility in their formations is signaled by them, especially when they demand permanent formation. / Pesquisa-intervenção de natureza qualitativa tem por objeto os saberes e fazeres de um grupo de professoras de Educação Infantil em relação à Arte Visual. Como objetivo geral busca identificar os conhecimentos e as práticas dessas professoras em suas propostas em Arte com crianças pequenas. Como objetivos específicos visa analisar possibilidades de construção de conhecimento em Arte Visual na formação permanente e em serviço das professoras e compreender como o conhecimento construído nesse espaço se desdobra nas práticas com crianças de 4 e 5 anos. A pesquisa realizada com 7 professoras e a Assistente Pedagógica (AP) efetivou-se em uma Escola Municipal de Educação Infantil e Ensino Fundamental (EMEIEF), da rede de Santo André, denominada por nós: EMEIEF Caleidoscópio. Teve como procedimento metodológico a coleta de dados mediante: ficha de caracterização; questionários; Encontros Formativos, audiogravados e transcritos; registros fotográficos das produções das professoras e das crianças e leitura e análise do Projeto Político Pedagógico e planejamentos. A Análise de Conteúdo proposta por Bardin (2016) foi utilizada para análise dos dados. O referencial teórico foi organizado da seguinte forma: para o resgate histórico do Ensino da Arte no Brasil e seus fundamentos nos sustentamos em Ana Mae Barbosa (2002, 2008, 2012) e outros estudiosos da História da Educação. Em relação à Arte na interface com a cultura da infância contamos com Ana Lúcia Goulart de Faria (2002, 2013, 2015) e a legislação brasileira; Vigotski (1998, 1999, 2001) traz contribuições para a compreensão do desenvolvimento infantil e a Arte; Paulo Freire (1982, 1987, 1992, 1996, 1997, 2001, 2005) e Tardif (2002, 2006) nos remetem a importantes reflexões sobre a consciência da profissão professor, visando ressaltar fundamentos essenciais da docência, formação e seus desafios. Como resultados, constatamos que as práticas e discursos das professoras são reflexos de seus percursos pessoais e profissionais. A consciência da fragilidade em suas formações é sinalizada por elas, sobretudo quando requisitam formação permanente.
