No. of bitstreams: 1 Adriana Beatriz de Oliveira.pdf: 2129072 bytes, checksum: d4513c4cf21913260c22e8a89975062a (MD5) Previous issue date: 2017-07-06 / Ação Pedagógica e Avaliação, sob orientação da profa. dra. Laurizete Ferragut Passos The aim of this research was to analyze the possibilities and limits of a collaborative work developed in the implementation process of the Integrative Curriculum of the Childhood from the Municipal System of São Paulo, through narratives of an Early Childhood Education teachers group in partnership with one teacher of the Fundamental Education, from which we sought the articulation between the EMEI and the EMEF in order to give visibility to the Curricular proposal. The group movements during the reflection about their own practices and the local requests emerged as issues for the teaching work. The research had as formulated question: How the reflective movements derived from formative meetings with an Early Childhood Education teachers group contribute with their practices in the implementation process of the Integrative Curriculum of the Childhood from the Municipal System of São Paulo? The theoretical background was based on the National Curricular Guidelines for the Basic Education (MEC, 2013), the Integrative Curriculum of the Childhood of São Paulo (SÃO PAULO, 2015) and the teacher formation in the collaborative work perspective. To deal with this theme authors as Gatti and Barreto (2009), Imbernón (2009), Freire (1996 apud SAUL, 2015), Passos (2016), amog others, were used and allowed the reflection about possible ways which facilitated the understanding of the research problem. The research proposal focused on the Action Special Project (PEA) which takes place in the collective hours of the EMEI where the research was developed. The data were collected during the period of the year 2015 to 2016 using the prose analysis (ANDRÉ, 1983) and the inputs of authors such as Triviños (1987) and Creswell (2010) which helped to expand the scope of data interpretation. The analysis is organized in categories: Dialog between the EMEI and the EMEF and the Mathematics teaching; Articulation of the Integrative Curriculum, and The Collaborative Group composition and the new teaching and trainer apprenticeships. The results revealed the collaborative work as an efficient strategy for the reflection and improvement of the teacher practice since it contributes to the construction of a path that includes the main local requests, giving visibility to the prescribed and the performed Curriculum, through negotiations between the process participants who started to investigate their own actions, thus becoming a community of practice. This research contributes to a new culture of continuous training in the school context, bringing a new meaning for the teaching and the trainer work avoiding the centralization of the formation process and stimulates the valorization of the teacher knowledge, based on its doubts and incertainties, as the fundament of a transformation and reflection process. This process can only be changed if the subjects involved change their disposition in order to learn and to leave the discourse and adopt a thought practice, and also to change from an isolation culture to a collaborative work / O objetivo desta pesquisa foi analisar as possibilidades e os limites de um trabalho colaborativo que se desenvolveu no processo de implementação do Currículo Integrador da Infância Paulistana da Rede Municipal de São Paulo, por meio das narrativas de um grupo de professoras da Educação Infantil em parceria com uma professora do Ensino Fundamental e em que se buscou a articulação da EMEI com a EMEF para dar visibilidade à proposta Curricular. Os movimentos do grupo durante o processo de reflexão da própria prática e das demandas locais emergiram como problemáticas para o trabalho docente. A pesquisa teve como questão formulada: Como os movimentos reflexivos, decorrentes dos encontros formativos com um grupo de professoras da Educação Infantil, contribuem com a prática destas professoras no processo de implementação do Currículo Integrador da Infância Paulistana da Rede Municipal de Educação de São Paulo? O embasamento teórico utilizado baseou-se nas Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais da Educação Básica (MEC, 2013), o Currículo Integrador da Infância Paulistana (SÃO PAULO, 2015) e a formação do professor na perspectiva do trabalho colaborativo. Para essa temática, autores como Gatti e Barreto (2009), Imbernón (2009), Freire (1996 apud SAUL, 2015), Passos (2016) e outros, permitiram refletir sobre possíveis caminhos que viabilizaram a compreensão da problemática colocada nesta pesquisa. A proposta de pesquisa incidiu sobre o Projeto Especial de Ação (PEA) que ocorre nos horários coletivos da EMEI, contexto desta pesquisa. Os dados foram coletados nos anos de 2015 e 2016, utilizando a análise de prosa (ANDRÉ, 1983) e aportes de autores como Triviños (1987) e Creswell (2010) que permitiram ampliar o escopo de interpretação dos dados. A análise está organizada em três categorias: Diálogo da EMEI com a EMEF e o ensino da Matemática; Articulação do Currículo Integrador, e A constituição do grupo colaborativo e as novas aprendizagens da docência e do formador. Os resultados revelaram que o trabalho colaborativo se constitui em uma estratégia eficaz de reflexão e aprimoramento da prática docente ao contribuir com os sujeitos participantes na construção de um caminho que considere as principais demandas locais, dando maior visibilidade e compreensão entre o Currículo prescrito e o praticado, por meio das negociações entre as participantes do processo que passaram a investigar as próprias ações se constituindo em uma comunidade de prática. Esta pesquisa traz contribuições para uma nova cultura em formação continuada no contexto escolar, de modo a ressignificar a docência e o trabalho do formador por se comprometer com a superação de uma formação docente centralizada, mas que faz das dúvidas e incertezas a base para a investigação e valorização do conhecimento docente como fundamento para o processo de reflexão e transformação. Um processo que só poderá ser alterado se os sujeitos envolvidos alterarem sua disposição para aprender e movimentar-se na direção de sair do discurso para uma prática pensada e de uma cultura de isolamento para um trabalho colaborativo

A conciliação das ideias do cálculo com o currículo da educação básica: o raciocínio covariacional / The conciliation of Calculus ideas with the K-12 curriculum: the covariational reasoning

Orfali, Fabio 25 September 2017 (has links)
A ausência do Cálculo Diferencial e Integral no currículo do Ensino Médio no Brasil, diferentemente do que acontece em outros países, constituiu-se na motivação original para este trabalho. Considerando as finalidades mais gerais da escola básica apresentadas nos documentos oficiais, mostramos o aporte que o ensino de Cálculo pode conduzir à formação de nossos jovens, favorecendo uma visão mais integrada das disciplinas e o desenvolvimento da capacidade de compreender e interpretar fenômenos. Trazer o estudo do Cálculo para a escola básica, porém, não pode significar uma antecipação do que é feito nos cursos universitários, como acontecia no Brasil há algumas décadas. Pelo contrário, a abordagem deve se basear nas ideias fundamentais do Cálculo, como variação, aproximação e proporcionalidade, que já estão presentes no programa da escola básica. Para tanto, apresentamos o raciocínio covariacional, definido como o conjunto de atividades cognitivas envolvidas na análise coordenada das variações de duas grandezas interdependentes. Construindo uma trajetória que começa nas séries iniciais, chega às grandezas proporcionais, perpassa todo o estudo das funções e se estende até o final do Ensino Médio, mostramos que o modelo representado pelo raciocínio covariacional pode nortear o processo de fortalecimento das ideias do Cálculo no currículo da escola básica. Para ter uma noção do cenário atual, avaliamos o nível de raciocínio covariacional de 66 alunos recém-formados no Ensino Médio brasileiro, aprovados em um competitivo exame seletivo para ingresso na universidade. A enorme dispersão dos resultados indicou a pouca consistência do atual programa de nossa escola básica em relação ao desenvolvimento do raciocínio covariacional. Aproveitando o estudo realizado, extrapolamos o contexto da escola básica para avaliar a relação entre o nível inicial de raciocínio covariacional dos alunos e seu desempenho na disciplina de Cálculo na universidade. Os resultados sinalizam para o efeito positivo que um trabalho mais efetivo com o raciocínio covariacional pode ter no enfrentamento das dificuldades vividas por alunos e professores nas disciplinas de Cálculo do ensino superior. / The absence of Differential and Integral Calculus in Brazilian high school syllabus, differently from what happens in other countries, has been the main motivation to develop this thesis. Considering the most general objectives of the K-12 education presented in the official documents, we hereby demonstrate the robust contribution of teaching Calculus to the secondary school students, by offering an integrated discipline overview, and the development of the ability of understanding and interpreting phenomena. However, the introduction of the study of Calculus to secondary school should not be an anticipation of what is developed in the university courses, as it used to be some decades ago in Brazil. The approach, on the other hand, should be based on the Calculus fundamental ideas, such as: variation, approximation and proportionality, which are already present in the K-12 curriculum. Therefore, we described the covariational reasoning, which is defined as the cognitive activities involved in the coordinated analysis of two interdependent quantities variations. We have designed a track using a covariation framework, starting in elementary school, which then achieves the study of proportionality and functions, and extends up to the end of high school, resulting in the strengthening of the Calculus ideas in the curriculum. In order to have a general view of the current scenario, we evaluated the covariational reasoning level of 66 recent graduated high school students in Brazil, who were approved in a high competitive exam in order to enter university. As a result, we detected an impressive lack of consistency regarding the development of covariational reasoning in the secondary school curriculum. Moreover, we could evaluate the relation between the initial students covariational reasoning level and their understanding of Calculus in the university. Our results indicate that fostering covariational reasoning may effectively lead to a positive influence, when dealing with difficulties faced by students and faculty in Calculus courses at the university level.

No. of bitstreams: 1 PAULO SILVA MELO.pdf: 2917078 bytes, checksum: 1180ea71ef5bae3bc46f21e3444fd16d (MD5) Previous issue date: 2018-08-27 / The present thesis was aimed at Integrated High School. Studies on the integration between propaedeutic and vocational training (SOUZA, 2010, RAMOS, 2011, CHEPLUSKI, 2011, CORSO, 2015, GARCIA, 2017) show that the changes produced by Decree 5,154 / 2004 focused on the design of Vocational Education and, consequently, in their social and pedagogical functions. Since the legislation on this modality of education points to the integral, unitary and polytechnical formation of the students, the present research addresses possible impacts of these changes in both their social effectiveness and in the curricular and pedagogical practices. Taking into account the historical problematic of the dualism in secondary education, between human formation and technical training, with the intellectual formation destined to the preparatory formation to the sequence of studies in the university and the professional formation for the insertion in the process of capitalist production, the problem of The research was outlined in the following questions: Does the proposal of Higher Education integrated in a perspective of polytechnics aimed at overcoming the dualism between human formation and technical education have reached its objectives from a social and pedagogical point of view? What advances or obstacles can be identified in the course of its implementation and development, regarding the effective actions of curricular integration between Professional Education and High School? The objective of the research was to analyze the implementation and development process of Integrated High School in the Federal Goiano Institute, in order to evaluate the social and pedagogical effectiveness of this modality of education in relation to the purposes and objectives enunciated in the legislation and its curricular and pedagogical operationalization . Using theoretical-methodological foundations of dialectical historical materialism, a qualitative research was carried out employing documentary research and field research procedures. In the documentary research, we used official documents of the legislation and operational guidelines as well as institutional documents such as Pedagogical Projects of the Courses and Institutional Development Project of the Goiano Federal Institute (Goiano IF). The field research was attended by directors, course coordinators and technical-administrative servers. Data collection included questionnaires, interviews and observation of classes. The analysis considered the process of implantation and development of the High School Integrated to the Technical Professional Education of average level in the Goiano Federal Institute, identifying its contradictions with the integral, unitary and polytechnical formation of the students. The results point out that social effectiveness is being strongly challenged by the contradiction between educational purposes envisaged in the legislation and an operationalization based on the instrumental and utilitarian curriculum recommended by international organizations. The pedagogical effectiveness is faced with problems in the pedagogical training of teachers, in the real conditions of promotion of curricular integration, in the epistemological rigidity of a good part of the teachers in favor of the disciplinary curriculum. It was concluded that contradictory to what was proclaimed and sought, teaching remains fragmented, and the possibility of overcoming such contradiction requires, among other things, changes in curricular and pedagogical actions. For this, more investments in pedagogical management are required, since the pedagogical effectiveness and social effectiveness of the Integrated Higher Education form an interdependent unit. / A presente tese teve como objeto o Ensino Médio Integrado. Estudos sobre a integração entre a formação propedêutica e a formação profissional (SOUZA, 2010; RAMOS, 2011; CHEPLUSKI, 2011; CORSO, 2015; GARCIA, 2017) mostram que as mudanças produzidas pelo Decreto no 5.154/2004 incidiram na concepção da Educação Profissional e, em consequência, em suas funções sociais e pedagógicas. Uma vez que a legislação sobre essa modalidade de ensino aponta para a formação integral, unitária e politécnica dos estudantes, a presente pesquisa aborda possíveis impactos dessas alterações tanto em sua eficácia social como nas práticas curriculares e pedagógicas. Tendo em conta a reiterada problemática histórica do dualismo no ensino médio, entre formação humana e formação técnica, com a formação intelectual destinada à formação propedêutica à sequência de estudos na universidade e a formação profissional para a inserção no processo da produção capitalista, o problema de pesquisa se delineou nas seguintes questões: a proposta de Ensino Médio Integrado em uma perspectiva de politecnia visando à superação do dualismo entre formação humana e formação técnica vem atingindo seus objetivos do ponto de vista social e pedagógico? Quais avanços ou obstáculos podem ser identificados no percurso de sua implantação e desenvolvimento, no que diz respeito às ações efetivas de integração curricular entre a Educação Profissional e o Ensino Médio? O objetivo da pesquisa foi analisar o processo de implantação e desenvolvimento do Ensino Médio Integrado no Instituto Federal Goiano, a fim de avaliar a efetividade social e pedagógica dessa modalidade de educação em relação a finalidades e objetivos enunciados na legislação e à sua operacionalização curricular e pedagógica. Utilizando fundamentos teóricometodológicos do materialismo histórico dialético, realizou-se uma pesquisa qualitativa empregando os procedimentos de pesquisa documental e pesquisa de campo. Na pesquisa documental recorreu-se a documentos oficiais da legislação e a orientações operacionais bem como documentos institucionais como Projetos Pedagógicos dos Cursos e Projeto de Desenvolvimento Institucional do Instituto Federal Goiano (IF Goiano). A pesquisa de campo contou com a participação de diretores, coordenadores de curso e servidores técnicoadministrativos. Para a coleta de dados foram utilizados questionários, entrevistas e observação de aulas. A análise considerou o processo de implantação e desenvolvimento do Ensino Médio Integrado à Educação Profissional Técnica de nível médio no Instituto Federal Goiano, identificando suas contradições face à formação integral, unitária e politécnica dos estudantes. Os resultados apontam que a efetividade social está sendo fortemente interpelada pela contradição existente entre finalidades educativas previstas na legislação e uma operacionalização baseada no currículo instrumental e utilitarista recomendado por organismos internacionais. A efetividade pedagógica se defronta com problemas na formação pedagógica dos professores, nas condições reais de promoção da integração curricular, na rigidez epistemológica de boa parte dos professores em favor do currículo disciplinar. Concluiu-se que contraditoriamente ao proclamado e buscado, o ensino permanece fragmentado, sendo que a possibilidade de superar tal contradição requer, entre outras, mudanças nas ações curriculares e pedagógicas. Para tanto, são requeridos mais investimentos na gestão pedagógica, uma vez que a efetividade pedagógica e efetividade social do Ensino Médio Integrado formam uma unidade interdependente.

Exploring practices determining the effectiveness and improvement of secondary schools in the Free State Province

Makoelle, Tsediso Michael 11 1900 (has links)
Globally, there are numerous debates on what constitutes an effective school. Parents strive to choose what they regard as the best school for the education of their children. Historically, school effectiveness is a phenomenon associated with learner attainment. Yet, school effectiveness is measured and conceptualized differently throughout the world. The aim of this research was to determine and define the factors contributing to the effectiveness of secondary schools in the Free State Province of South Africa. A case study was conducted on six schools selected in the Free State Province. Data were collected qualitatively by means of semi-structured and focus-group interviews with principals, SMTs, teachers, SGBs, learning facilitators and school-management and -governance developers. A documentary analysis was carried out to triangulate data from interviews. The data collected were triangulated and supported by an extensive literature review on school effectiveness and improvement. In particular, the literature review encompassed the policy context of school effectiveness in South Africa, definitions of the concept of school effectiveness, models of school effectiveness, methods of evaluating school effectiveness, the relationship between school effectiveness and school improvement, change and school improvement, approaches to school improvement and the characteristics of effective schools. The legislative framework for both teacher and school evaluations is highlighted and their effectiveness critically reviewed with reference to current investigations in the field. These empirical investigations, which, form part of this larger qualitative research project, show that effective schools exhibited high learner attainment, effective teaching and learning, as well as a highly effective leadership and management. Management, leadership and administration, curriculum, school governance and VI school support structures were confirmed as very instrumental as far as school effectiveness and improvement are concerned. Furthermore the study indicates that the current policies are not enhancing school effectiveness and improvement, thus the study recommends the index of school effectiveness and improvement (ISE&I). The Index of School Effectiveness and Improvement, which is a document that schools can use to review and enhance their effectiveness, is a model developed in the course of this study to assist schools in improving their effectiveness. Unlike the WSE review, which takes place every five years, the index suggests a continuous and regular review process by schools carried out by all stakeholders. In conclusion, an overview of the challenges identified by this research project, as well as the aspects in need of further research, is highlighted. / Educational Leadership and Management / D. Ed.

四技二專統一入學測驗英文科對話題之研究 / A Study on the Dialogue Section of the Technological and Vocational Educational Examination

湯琦均, Tang, Ci Jyun Unknown Date (has links)
在臺灣的技職教育體系中,職業學校群科課程綱要是教材編撰及課程設計的參考基準;而四技二專統一入學測驗是高職學生升學的重要依據。其中,統測共同科目英文考科中的對話題,採用了間接測驗來評量學生的口語能力。本研究旨在討論統測英文科對話題與高職英文課綱之吻合程度,及統測對話題的內容效度。為了達成此研究目的,本研究分析統測英文考科對話題型以及高職英文課程綱要,同時參考與測驗口說能力之相關教學研究及論文,發展出課綱檢核表及口說能力檢核表做為研究工具。 研究結果顯示,統測對話題與高職課綱中口說能力相關指標大致符合,但主題分佈不甚平均,主要強調日常生活情境下的溝通能力。就內容效度而言,其檢驗之能力多為基礎口語技巧,並且偏重測驗考生如何傳遞訊息及維持互動,並沒有包含處理互動的技巧。根據本研究之發現,筆者針對未來研究方向及測驗實務提出了建議。 / In the vocational education system in Taiwan, the Vocational High School Curriculum Guideline (VHSCG) is the basis of teaching materials and curriculum design, and the Technological and Vocational Educational Examination (TVEE) is an important reference for students to enter college. In the English test of the TVEE, an indirect speaking test was applied in the dialogue section. This research aims to investigate: (1) the correspondence between goals of speaking ability in the VHSCG and the dialogue section of the TVEE; and (2) the construct validity of the dialogue section. To achieve the purpose, this research analyzed the current curriculum guideline and the English tests of the TVEE, and studied the previous literature about assessing speaking ability to develop two checklists as instruments to analyze the targeted test items. Results indicated that the dialogue section of the TVEE generally corresponded with the speaking ability index in the VHSCG, but the topic distribution was imbalanced. The test items primarily focused on the communicative ability in daily-life contexts and was lacked of items that examine descriptive ability. For the construct validity, the dialogue section of the TVEE mostly examined fundamental speaking skills. Informational and interactional skills were strongly emphasized, while the skills in managing interaction were completely absent. Based on the findings of this research, the researcher yielded suggestions for future research and implications for the test developers.

L’enseignement des langues romanes et de l’anglais dans un lycée roumain : analyse des manuels scolaires et pratiques pédagogiques / The teaching of Romance languages and of the English language in a Romanian High School : analysis of the school textbooks and of the pedagogical activity

Chollet-Mocanu, Carmen 21 January 2011 (has links)
Cette recherche trouve sa justification dans l’esprit d’ouverture vers les langues dans les pays de l’Union européenne. Comme, depuis janvier 2007, la Roumanie est entrée dans cette grande famille, l’enseignement des langues y est devenu, plus que jamais, une priorité. Notre questionnement porte sur : - la place des langues romanes et de l’anglais dans l’enseignement roumain actuel ; - la manière dont les documents officiels actuels (programmes scolaires, curriculum national, manuels scolaires) du ministère de l’Éducation et de la Recherche de Roumanie intègrent le nouveau dispositif du Conseil de l’Europe, le Cadre européen commun de référence pour les langues (CECR) ; - les manuels scolaires actuels pour les langues romanes (français, italien, espagnol) et l’anglais ; - les pratiques pédagogiques dans l’enseignement des différentes langues. Les façons d’apprendre et d’enseigner les langues à l’heure actuelle sont nombreuses, mais notre analyse reste dans le cadre théorique du CECR, dans l’objectif d’aider les enseignants, les élèves et les concepteurs de cours à coordonner leurs efforts pour augmenter la qualité de l’acte éducatif. Notre recherche ouvre la porte sur une réflexion plus approfondie concernant l’efficacité des méthodes utilisées aujourd’hui dans le domaine de l’enseignement des langues étrangères au lycée. La didactique moderne essaie de répondre aux demandes de la société, en proposant des stratégies multiples et adaptées pour former les élèves. L’expérience de la tradition associée à la capacité d’innovation sont les nouveaux repères de l’école pour une société multiculturelle. Si l’école roumaine veut s’inscrire dans la modernité, elle devra poursuivre le travail de fond engagé dans le respect et l’application du CECR, s’assurer que les professeurs y sont formés et leur donner les moyens d’intégrer cette modernité dans leurs pratiques scolaires / This research finds its justification in the spirit of the opening towards the modern foreign languages in the European Union. As, since January 2007, Romania has entered this big family, the teaching of modern foreign languages has become, more than ever, a priority. In this research we were interested in : - the place of the Romance languages and of the English language in the Romanian education system of today ; - the way in which the current official documents (school curricula, national curricula, school textbooks) of the Ministry of Education and Research of Romania integrates a new framework of the European Council, Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) ; - the current school textbooks of the Romance languages (French, Italian, Spanish) and of English ; - the pedagogical activity in the teaching of various foreign languages. Nowadays, the ways of learning and teaching are numerous, but our analysis followsthe theoretical framework of CEFR, with the purpose of helping teachers, students and the authors of courses coordinate their efforts to enhance the quality of the teaching process. Our research opens the way for a deeper reflection as to the efficiency of the methods used today in the field of teaching foreign languages in high school. The modern Didactics tries to answer the requests of the society, proposing multiple strategies and adapted to form the students. The experience of the tradition associated with the capacity of innovation sets the new landmarks of school for a multicultural society. If the Romanian educational system wants to keep pace with the modernity, will have to continue the steps already made observing and applying the CEFR rules, to secure that the teachers are formed and are given the means to integrate this modernity in the actual teaching and practice in schools

Electricity in Rural Areas of North Texas

Greathouse, Charles Simmons 01 1900 (has links)
"This study shows three things: (1) a precedent for the expenditure of public funds to teach electricity in our public high schools has already been established by the school system in the larger school systems of Texas, (2) the rural families living on electrified farms in the North Texas area want instruction of this type given to the boys and girls in their communities, and (3) both the rural people and the professional people of the North Texas area believe that instruction dealing with the use of electricity and electrical equipment had spread until by 1935 more than twenty-one million homes, about eighty percent of the total in America at that time, were electrified, only eleven American farms out of every 100 had central-station electricity. More than five million American farms lacked electric service. "--leaf 50.

Sportovní hry jako nepovinný předmět na střední škole / Sports games as an elective course in a secondary school

Hánková, Anna January 2017 (has links)
This thesis deals with interest of the students of the Secondary school of social services of Kavčí hory in an optional course in sports and games. The thesis is divided into two parts, the theoretical and the practical. The theoretical part briefly introduces the history of physical education in Czech schools, development of the subject physical education and its optional form of sports and games, and selected forms of extracurricular activities. The practical part demonstrates the results of a survey conducted at the Secondary school of social services of Kavčí hory and their analysis. It also makes concrete recommendations for the school and its teachers of physical education with reference to the elective course in sports and games.
