Sabe-se que as discussões e pesquisas na área de formação de professores e gestores voltados à promoção da inclusão em escolas públicas evidenciam crescente desafio quanto aos estudantes público alvo da Educação Especial, assim como dificuldades formativas para a prática profissional da docência. Nesse cenário, a Universidade Estadual Paulista “Júlio de Mesquita Filho” (UNESP) em parceria com a Secretaria de Educação do Estado de São Paulo (SEE/SP), por meio da Escola de Formação e Aperfeiçoamento dos Professores do Estado de São Paulo “Paulo Renato Costa Souza” (EFAP), com a criação de um Programa “Formação Continuada em Educação Especial e Inclusiva na Rede São Paulo de Formação Docente” (REDEFOR), desenvolveram um processo de formação continuada, na forma de curso de especialização em sete áreas do conhecimento, a saber: Educação Especial na perspectiva da Educação Inclusiva, Deficiência Auditiva, Física, Intelectual e Visual, Transtorno Global do Desenvolvimento e Altas Habilidade ou Superdotação. Os cursos foram desenvolvidos na modalidade a distância, com encontros presenciais, e mediado por tecnologias digitais de informação e comunicação (TDIC). O presente trabalho procurou lançar o olhar para seis participantes (duas professoras especialistas - Português e Educação Física, uma professora especializada - Serviço de Apoio Pedagógico Especializado (SAPE) e três gestoras - diretora, vice-diretora e coordenadora pedagógica) de uma turma que realizou o curso de Educação Especial na perspectiva da Educação Inclusiva, com o principal objetivo de analisar se e de que forma a experiência de formação continuada vivenciada ao longo do processo foi traduzida por eles nas escolas públicas em que atuavam. Como eixo teórico norteador foi utilizado um referencial pautado na literatura sobre formação continuada de professores e gestores, educação especial, inclusão escolar e educação inclusiva. Trata-se de uma pesquisa de natureza qualitativa do tipo descritiva explicativa. Os dados foram obtidos durante a realização do curso, inicialmente do ambiente virtual de aprendizagem Moodle e, posteriormente, por meio dos trabalhos de conclusão do curso denominados Trabalhos Acadêmicos, considerados por nós como narrativas escritas. A análise dos dados foi orientada a partir da proposta de Miles e Huberman (1994) sistematizada por meio de uma proposta de análise de fluxo contínuo e simultâneo em três fases: redução, apresentação e conclusão/verificação. A análise consiste na seleção, delimitação a partir dos objetivos de pesquisa, condensação dos dados a serem utilizados, em seguida a apresentação com a organização e apresentação dos dados selecionados, e por último, a conclusão e verificação com a observação de regularidades e fluxos, a afim de identificar as descobertas propostas pela pesquisa. Os resultados apontam que com o desenvolver do curso de formação continuada houve o início da reflexão dos participantes quanto suas práticas nas unidades escolares, posições quanto ao que acreditam ser a base de uma educação na diversidade, práticas inovadoras e função das políticas públicas. Os participantes adquiriram um embasamento teórico no decorrer da experiência e a articularam com suas necessidades cotidianas, possibilitando intervenções pedagógicas com os EPAEE, bem como a constituição de diálogos crítico-reflexivos com seus pares por meio das diferentes ferramentas utilizadas no ambiente virtual de aprendizagem, com o apoio da mediação dos tutores. Resultou em uma evolução para um conhecimento mais elaborado e fundamentado na literatura. Identificou-se que algumas das necessidades iniciais foram supridas com a apresentação e articulação das disciplinas ao longo do curso, passaram a apresentar necessidades que envolvessem diferentes aspectos didáticos, formativos e políticos. Por fim a construção e reflexão de conhecimentos ocorreu de forma gradativa, com atividades desenvolvidas no ambiente virtual de aprendizagem, momentos de encontro presencial e às propostas de estágio de forma articulada oportunizou um amadurecimento de questões teórico-conceituais de construção de uma cultura inclusiva, do trabalho com a diversidade, de uma rede colaborativa e da compreensão da Gestão Democrática como ferramentas para a promoção da inclusão dos EPAEE. Acredita-se que participação no curso foi o início ou processo, e não o fim, de um caminhar para uma perspectiva inclusiva. / This paper was developed within “Formation of Education, Educational Politics and Public School Professionals” from Post-graduation Program in Education, at Faculty of Science and Technology of “Júlio de Mesquita Filho” São Paulo State University (FCT/UNESP). It is known that discussions and researches in field of teaching and management towards inclusion in public schools point the growing endeavour regarding public school students from Special Education, as well as the challenges around the professional practices of teaching. In this scenario UNESP, in partnership with São Paulo State Office of Education (SEE/SP), through “Paulo Renato Costa Souza” São Paulo State School of Training and Improvement of Teachers (EFAP), with the creation of a program called “Continued Training in Special and Inclusive Education in São Paulo Network of Teacher Training” (REDEFOR), developed a process of continued training in the nature of specialization course in seven areas of knowledge: Special Education in the perspective of Inclusive Education, Hearing, Physical, Intellectual and Visual Impairment, Global Developmental Disorder and High Abilities. The courses were developed as remote trainings, with face-to-face meetings and mediated by information and communication digital technologies (ICDT). This research focused on six participants (two specialist teachers – Portuguese and Physical Education, a specialized teacher – Specialized Educational Support Service – and three managers – principal, viceprincipal and educational coordinator) of a group which have completed the Special Education in Inclusive Education Perspective course, aiming to analyse how the experience regarding continued training throughout the process was translated by them in their institutions. As a theoretical guideline the bibliography about continued training of teachers and managers, special education, school inclusion and inclusive education was used. This is a qualitative and descriptive research. The data was obtained during the course, initially from the virtual learning environment Moodle , and later through course completion assignments named Academic Works, considered by us as written narratives. The data analysis were based on Miles and Huberman’s (1994) proposal and systematized as a three phased continued and simultaneous flow analysis: reduction, presentation and conclusion. The analysis consists in selection, delimitation considering the research objectives, to be used data condensing followed by a presentation of the selected and organized data. Lastly, the conclusion and verification of regularity and flow in order to identify the results of this research. The results show that, with the development of continued training course, there was a reflection by the participants upon their own practice in their institution, positions regarding what they believe to be the base of diversity education, innovating practices and public politics functions. The participants acquired a theoretical basis throughout the experiences and associated them with their daily needs, making educational interventions possible with the EPAEEs, as well as building critic-reflective dialogues with their peers through several tools used in the virtual learning environment, with the support of tutors. This resulted in a evolution to a more elaborated knowledge based on the bibliography. Some requirements which were initially achieved during the course later on demanded the involvement of different teaching, training and political aspects. Lastly, the construction and reflection of knowledge happened gradually, with activities developed in the virtual learning environment, face-to-face meetings which created the opportunity of growth for theoretical-conceptual topics of inclusive culture, for working with diversity, of a collaborative network and the understanding of Democratic Management as tools to promote inclusion of EPAEE. It is believed that participating in this course was the beginning or process, not the end, of a path to an inclusive perspective.

The purpose of this quantitative study was to explore a possible relationship between remote learning with 1:1 devices and reading performance for third graders in a school district in Tennessee by comparing differences between universal screener reading data from fall 2020 and universal screener reading data from both fall 2018 and fall 2019. Star Reading universal screener Normal Curve Equivalent (NCE) data from fall 2018, fall 2019, and fall 2020 from three elementary schools were used for the study. Results indicated that the third-grade students’ fall 2020 Star Reading universal screener NCEs were significantly lower than their fall 2018 first grade and fall 2019 second grade universal screener NCEs. The fall 2020 third-grade NCEs were not significantly different from the third-grade fall 2018 and fall 2019 NCEs. There were significant differences in reading performance by gender. The third-grade female students scored significantly lower on their fall 2020 Star Reading universal screener than on their first-grade fall 2018 and second-grade fall 2019 Star Reading universal screener. There were no significant differences in the Star Reading universal screener NCEs for the third-grade male students. Implications for practice and recommendations for further research are discussed.

I ett projektarbete i en ingenjörsutbildning används olika metoder och verktyg, för att planera och strukturera arbetet. En möjlighet är att använda fysiska projekttavlor. Det finns även interaktiva smartskärmar med uppkoppling till internet, som möjliggör arbete på distans. Detta arbete fokuserar på smartskärmen Samsung Flip 2, och undersöker om det går att använda den för projektarbeten i ingenjörsutbildningar. Projektet inleds med en förstudie, vars fokus är på whiteboardtavlor, planeringstavlor och interaktiva skärmar. Vidare utförs opinionsundersökningar med två olika studentgrupper. Med hjälp av de svar som erhållits, identifieras de funktioner som anses viktiga när projekttavlor används i utbildningen. Dessutom för- och nackdelar vägs för olika typer projekttavlor. En önskebild av en projekttavla, som är en samling av önskade egenskaper, tas fram baserad på förstudien och opinionsundersökningarna. Sedan testas mjukvaruverktygen Lucidchart, Notion, Trello och Jira i samband med smartskärmen Samsung Flip 2, för att se om det går att uppnå önskebilden. Resultaten av testningen används sedan för att utvärdera Samsung Flip 2. Det visar sig att den inte är en lämplig ersättning för en fysisk whiteboardtavla i projektarbeten. Utvärdering av andra smarskärmar och andra mjukvaruverktyg kan ge andra resultat. / In a project in an engineering education, different methods and tools are used, to plan and structure the work. One possibility is to use physical project boards. Another alternative is using an interactive smart-screen with access to the internet, which gives the opportunity to work remotely. This work focuses on the smart-screen Samsung Flip 2, and examines if it is possible to use it for projects in an engineering education. The project is initiated with a pre-study, where the focus is on whiteboards, project boards and interactive screens. Further on opinion polls are executed with two different student-groups. The answers help identify which functions that are important when project boards are used within the education, as well as pros and cons for different types of project boards. An ideal-picture of a project board, which is a collection of desired functionalities, is made based on the pre-study and opinion polls. After that the softwares Lucidchart, Notion, Trello and Jira are tested in combination with the smart-screen Samsung Flip 2, to see if it can fulfil the ideal-picture. The result from the tests is used to evaluate Samsung Flip 2. The evaluation shows that Samsung Flip 2 is not a suitable replacement for a physical whiteboard. Evaluations on other smart-boards and other softwares may yield a different result.

Within science education, and chemistry in particular, laboratory work is fundamental. The traditions of including laboratory work in chemistry education is a way to make the concepts of chemistry apprehensible, the aims and goals of laboratory work related to chemistry education are therefore well defined. With digital technology, Information Communication Technology, (ICT tools), the traditional hands-on laboratory experience can be transformed to a nontraditional, digital laboratory experience. The use of digital laboratory work in education is well debated, yet both positive and negative aspects can be identified. As a consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic, teachers around the globe faced new challenges as much of the teaching abruptly had to be converted to online teaching. Due to the nature of the chemistry subject, one major challenge chemistry teachers faced was how to coordinate practical laboratory work with the new regulations. The unexpected transition from classroom education to online education can thus be identified as in a way teaching habits were challenged. The purpose of this study is to investigate the adaptations chemistry teachers had to make to the laboratory education as the hands-on laboratory experience rapidly had to be translated to a digital laboratory experience. Data was collected by conducting interviews with 10 chemistry teachers in upper secondary education and a thematic analysis was used to identify how, and in what way, teachers used ICT tools to coordinate their current teaching with the new restrictions. Data was analyzed by applying a transactional approach inspired by John Dewey’s transactional perspective of habits as well as a didaktik perspective to study the complexity in actions and how decisions concerning the laboratory work were made. The findings suggest that ICT tools could be used in a variety of ways but were not necessarily easily translated between practices, thus choices regarding the aims, goals and methods used in the online classroom differed from the decisions teachers usually made. Many teachers were able to use ICT tools in a sufficiently productive way to keep the laboratory work functional, however this was not a smooth transition for everyone and the need to adapt the activity to make it useful was in many ways decisive. Their responses to the changes varied and the differences in basic skills in how to use ICT tools were prominent. Regarding the didactic relations, teachers also noticed a change in behavior and the students’ attitudes towards the laboratory work. The changes caused teachers to reevaluate their approach to a digital laboratory experience in order to make the teaching functional, hence both the habits of planning and teaching had to be reconsidered.

This dissertation used three independent studies to evaluate learning adaptations, techniques, and tools in response to COVID-19. Study 1 provides a personal narrative about COVID-10 and school closures. The first-hand reflection explores technologies used for remote education and how the technologies can improve learning experiences. Study 2 is a literature review identifying the challenges faced in providing engaging lessons and overcoming technology fatigue. Study 3 is an empirical study providing insight into the continued use of video instruction and virtual simulations. Collectively, the manuscripts in this dissertation provide the factors influencing the normalization of digital tools used during remote learning. The technology adoption cycle and the normalization process theory are used to discuss factors that influence the normalization of tools and techniques post-pandemic. The findings of this dissertation provide insight into future uses of digital tools and techniques, given the lessons learned from emergency remote learning due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
