Previous issue date: 2012-09-11 / The inclusion paradigm has been a widely debated topic due to the intense
movements promoting the democratization of education. The human diversity has
become an object of study of several educators looking for teaching strategies
aligned with the needs of each student. Therefore, the goal of this research is to
analyse teachers formation policies on inclusion and diversity considering past
dissertations and theses linked with the outbreak in the 1990s of inclusive education
proposals for children with special needs. The following key points will guide this text:
a) international declarations on this subject; b) the Brazilian legislation and specific
legal documents; c) dissertations and thesis produced on master s and doctoral
degrees of the PPGE PUC Goiás between 2005 and 2011; d) theories sources which
aim at revealing the current inclusion and teachers formation policies. This
investigation will raise questions over education inclusion policies and what is
actually practiced. It is also an object of study of this research to discuss eventual
contradictions of the current inclusion speech socially constructed in an opposition to
social-education exclusion. Considering these goals, this text will ponder the
continuing professional education policies and their application throughout the
Municipal Education Network of Goiânia between 2005 and 2011 and its outcomes in
the teaching practice. Therefore, this paper aims at investigating teachers formation
policies considering the inclusion and diversity perspectives, and at analysing the
continuous teachers formation as a way of building new possibilities for inclusive
education opportunities. / O paradigma da "inclusão" tem sido um tema amplamente discutido devido aos
movimentos de intensas lutas a favor da democratização da educação. A
diversidade humana tornou-se objeto de estudo de vários educadores na busca de
estratégias de ensino adequadas às necessidades de cada aluno. Sendo assim,
esta pesquisa tem como objetivo analisar as políticas de formação de professores
para a inclusão, com foco na diversidade, levando-se em conta as dissertações e
teses, articulando com o advento da proposta da inclusão de crianças com
necessidades educacionais específicas na década de 90 do século XX. No
desenvolvimento dessa proposta serão analisadas: a) as declarações internacionais
que tratam do assunto; b) a legislação brasileira e documentos específicos; c) as
dissertações e teses defendidas por mestrandos (as) e doutorandos (as) no PPGE
PUC Goiás no período de 2005 a 2011; d) fontes teóricas que tratam do assunto
com intuito de descortinar as políticas vigentes de inclusão e de formação de
professores. Nessa investigação são levantadas questões para reflexão sobre a
inclusão educacional que se tem e a inclusão que realmente acontece. Constitui
objeto deste, discutir também, as possíveis contradições entre o discurso de
inclusão vigente construído socialmente como forma de se contrapor à exclusão
sócio-educacional. Com esses objetivos, pretende-se refletir acerca da formação
continuada do profissional de educação defendida e implementada através da Rede
Municipal de Educação de Goiânia no período analisado e suas repercussões na
prática do professor. Espera-se com esta investigação conhecer as políticas de
formação docente para inclusão na perspectiva da diversidade e de analisar a
formação continuada de professores como forma de se construir possibilidades para
práticas inclusivas.

Previous issue date: 2012 / Resumo: Esta pesquisa lança um olhar sobre os espaços abertos de uso coletivo como articuladores da forma, uso e apropriação da cidade contemporânea, dando continuidade à linha de investigação iniciada na dissertação de mestrado, na qual o conceito da Arquitetura da Fronteira envolveu o redesenho dos espaços que fazem a mediação entre os territórios de domínio público e os de domínio privado. A hipótese da pesquisa é a existência de um potencial inerente aos espaços abertos de uso coletivo para a qualificação socioambiental dos lugares urbanos. O objetivo do trabalho é identificar os potenciais de qualificação socioambiental de partes consolidadas da cidade contemporânea pelo redesenho dos seus espaços abertos, à medida que se desenvolve uma maior sensibilidade na percepção da fronteira público-privada, conjugada à aplicação de estratégias processuais de projeto participativo. A pesquisa teve caráter exploratório e valeu-se de uma pesquisa-ação que se iniciou com um estudo de caso de natureza instrumental. O campo experimental selecionado foi a área central de um espaço universitário - a Cidade Universitária Zeferino Vaz, campus da Universidade Estadual de Campinas - por ter as características de um fragmento urbano que incorpora uma gama de interesses e conflitos ricos para investigação e estudo do tema proposto. A partir da investigação da área da Praça do Ciclo Básico, espaço aberto de grande representatividade para o campus e ponto referencial do seu traçado urbanístico, foi realizada uma experiência piloto, que teve início no projeto para requalificação desta praça. As diretrizes estabelecidas para aquele projeto se expandiram e foram aplicadas em outros projetos nos campi da Unicamp. A fundamentação teórico-conceitual do trabalho baseou-se no estado da arte das teorias e conceitos do Desenho Urbano e, para a análise ambiental, nos conceitos do Modelo Ecológico do Ambiente Urbano. Na experiência projetual piloto, a abordagem dos espaços abertos como protagonistas do espaço do campus representou uma inversão na cultura da universidade brasileira e da cidade contemporânea, que prioriza as edificações implantadas como objetos autônomos do seu contexto local, relegando o tratamento dos espaços abertos de uso coletivo a planos secundários e residuais. A valorização dos espaços abertos de uso coletivo foi incorporada de forma inédita como uma das prioridades da universidade para melhoria da qualidade de vida da sua comunidade. A metodologia de pesquisa-ação mostrou-se adequada ao processo de projeto urbano, na medida em que viabilizou a interação com a comunidade envolvida e possibilitou também a aproximação da dimensão de pesquisa teórica com a práxis da produção arquitetônica e urbanística. Os resultados obtidos incentivam a realização de outras análises críticas e diagnósticos que embasem propostas projetuais que criem cenários que qualifiquem os espaços abertos de uso coletivo do meio urbano / Abstract: The present work focuses on open spaces for collective use as articulators of the shape, use and appropriation of the contemporary city. It is the continuity of a research that started in the master thesis, where the concept of the Architecture of the Boundary involved the redesign of the territories that mediate the public and the private realms. The hypothesis of this research is the existence of a potential inherent to the collective use open spaces for the social and environmental qualification of the urban places, in the viewpoint of Urban Design. Its aim is to identify the potentials for socioenvironmental qualification of contemporary city's consolidated parts, through the redesign of its open spaces, to the extent that develops greater sensitivity in the perception of public-private boundary, in conjunction to the application of procedural strategies for participatory design. The research took an exploratory character, developing an action research that began with a case study of instrumental nature. It was selected a university space, as an experimental field: the campus of Universidade Estadual de Campinas, in São Paulo State, Brazil, called Cidade Universitária Zeferino Vaz. The reason for selecting this objet of study is due to its characteristics of an urban fragment that incorporates a range of interests and conflicts rich for the investigation of the proposed subject. Starting from the analysis of the open spaces of that campus, it was held an experiment for the requalification of its central square - Praça do Ciclo Básico, focal point of the campus' urban fabric and social life. The theoretical and conceptual foundation of the work was structured on the state of the art of the theories of Urban Design and the environmental analysis was based on the concepts of the Ecological Model of the Urban Environment. The valuation of open spaces for collective use was incorporated as one priority of the university to improve the quality of life of its community, through the process of participatory design. The action research methodology proved to be suitable for the urban design process, insofar as it enabled the interaction with the community involved. It also brought together the theoretical research dimension and the praxis of urban and architectural production. The results that were reached encourage other critical analysis that may result in design proposals that generate urban scenarios conceptually consistent and that qualify the open spaces of collective use of the urban environment / Doutorado / Arquitetura, Tecnologia e Cidade / Doutora em Arquitetura, Tecnologia e Cidade

“We Educate, they Indoctrinate” Religion and the Politics of Togetherness in Ontario Public EducationVan Arragon, Leo January 2015 (has links)
Religion has had an ambiguous role in Ontario public education, having provided both the common language for social cohesion and for resistance by religious groups to what they have perceived to be a dominant, exclusive and coercive ethos. In similar ways, religious freedom and diversity have been highly prized and protected in Ontario while at the same time being sources of anxiety and social disruption. Using critical discourse analysis and critical genealogical analysis I examine the conflicted role of religion in Ontario public education through competing discourses in political rhetoric, selected government documents formulating ways of conceptualizing the role of religion in public education from 1950 to 2003 and case law between 1985 and 1997. More precisely, I examine ways in which educational, social and political goals of education have been intertwined throughout the history of Ontario public education. I show that the public school system has been a state instrument privileged to deliver public education as a way to resolve the tension between social cohesion and social diversity by delivering common civic values. One result is that challenges to the public school system are often interpreted as attacks on public education and on Ontario society, particularly when those challenges are launched by religious groups. This has meant that debates about the role of religion in public education tend to be volatile making serious dialogue about this important social issue difficult to achieve while restricting the space for religious diversity in public education.

THE INFLUENCE OF FEMALE REPRESENTATION ON THE PERFORMANCE OF PARLIAMENT: KEY LESSONS FROM RWANDAMirembe, Joseline, Njie, Hujie January 2019 (has links)
Title: The influence of female representation on the performance of parliament: Key lessons from Rwanda. Level: Final assignment for Master’s Degree in Business Administration. Authors: Mirembe Joseline & Hujie Njie Supervisor: Dr. Maria Fregidou-Malama Examiner: Dr. Ehsanul Huda Chowdhury Date: 2018–June Aim: The aim of this research is to investigate how the presence of female representation in the parliament influences its performance. The focus is to understand the stereotyping of female in the parliament and how it affects its performance. In this regard, the focus is on the innovation, social diversity and leadership styles of women and their influence on performance. Method: To achieve the aim, qualitative method has been adapted through having 10 interviews with both female and male parliamentarians from Rwandan Parliament, Secondary data extracted from books and articles was also used. In this study to combine different theories to provide external knowledge about the topic. The data obtained from primary and secondary were used to analyze and discuss the findings. Result & Conclusions: This study confirms that female participation in the parliament influences its performance especially in gender policy bills and issues to developing poor people in the society. Given their number, they developed confidence in decision making. Also the study reveals that social diversity, innovation as well as leadership styles of women in the parliament boosted the performance. This later helped in collaborating with other institutions and provided capacity-building activities to the public. However, there is still a gap in childcare agenda and working hours as female members of the parliament work beyond working hours. Contribution: This study contributes to existing literature as it examines the ways gender equality can be used as a tool to increase and stimulate discussions before making important decisions. It also shows how organizations can use gender equality as a strategic advantage. Our work gives other parliaments, organizations and countries an insight on how to improve their performance through gender balancing. This study can be used by organizations to gain insight on the way women in general operate when they are in high positions and how it can be used as an advantage. Suggestions for future research: Further research can be conducted to analyze how women can be motivated to progress their career development. Other researchers could research strategies for female to be appointed in high positions.

Assimetrias socioeconÃmicas e acesso ao ensino superior â um estudo da (des)elitizaÃÃo discente na Universidade Federal do Cearà (UFC) / Socioeconomic disparities and access to higher education - a study of student de(gentrificational) in Universidade Federal do Cearà (UFC)Raimundo Luidi Santos de Abreu 14 November 2013 (has links)
nÃo hà / Desde sua gÃnese, a educaÃÃo superior brasileira vem sendo referenciada como palco das elites. Nas Ãltimas dÃcadas, todavia, polÃticas democratizantes de acesso universitÃrio, ao sugerirem ingresso de discentes menos abastados, anteveem reversÃo desse cenÃrio. Entre as alicerÃadas nos processos seletivos, destacam-se a substituiÃÃo do tradicional vestibular pelo ENEM/SISU e seu ajuste à compulsÃria polÃtica de cotas, que atuam no sentido de diminuir a influÃncia das posiÃÃes de classe nas possibilidades de acesso Ãs IFES, das quais a UFC à parte integrante. Sob uma perspectiva social da educaÃÃo, o presente trabalho teve como objetivo identificar os efeitos que tais mudanÃas nos certames de admissÃo de calouros exerceram sobre os nÃveis de elitizaÃÃo em Ãmbito institucional e dos cursos superiores da UFC. De natureza descritiva e abordagem quantitativa longitudinal, a pesquisa baseou-se na Teoria das Elites de Pareto para estabelecer indicadores numÃricos, denominados Ãndices de elitizaÃÃo, Ãteis à verificaÃÃo de tendÃncias des(elitizantes) no campo acadÃmico. As variÃveis socioeconÃmicas que subsidiaram a obtenÃÃo dos Ãndices disseram respeito à renda familiar; ao tipo de escola de ensino fundamental e mÃdio; e à instruÃÃo paterna e materna do alunado ingressante na universidade nos anos de 2010, 2012 e 2013. Do ponto de vista institucional, os resultados das anÃlises apontaram que a adesÃo ao ENEM/SISU nÃo ocasionou mudanÃa considerÃvel no nÃvel de elitizaÃÃo da UFC. Em momento posterior, o advento das cotas sujeitou-a a uma leve deselitizaÃÃo. PÃde-se deduzir, conquanto, que a deselitizaÃÃo ocorreria de forma mais acentuada se o quesito renda familiar, em vez do tipo de escola de ensino mÃdio, aparecesse como critÃrio principal na seleÃÃo dos cotistas. No que se refere ao primeiro grupo de cursos investigados, os imperiais (Direito, Medicina e Engenharia), verificou-se que tanto o ENEM/SISU quanto o sistema de cotas deselitizou-os quase que na Ãntegra. Jà com relaÃÃo ao outro ajuntamento de cursos, os de licenciatura, observou-se que o ENEM/SISU repercutiu de forma contrÃria à esperada, pois os sujeitou à elitizaÃÃo; Ãs cotas, por sua vez, coube reverter essa tendÃncia elitizante consubstanciada no perÃodo anterior. Neste tÃpico tambÃm foi possÃvel atinar para um efeito acessÃrio advindo da aplicaÃÃo da polÃtica de cotas: o abrandamento da autoexclusÃo; fenÃmeno que distancia indivÃduos mais humildes dos certames de acesso Ãs IES. / Since its genesis, the Brazilian higher education has been referred to as the stage of the elites. In recent decades, however, democratizing policies of academic access, suggesting the inflow of less affluent students, anticipate a reversal of this scenario. Among the policies grounded in the selection process, stands out the replacement of the traditional selection examination for the ENEM/SISU and its adjustment to the compulsory quota policy , which act to reduce the influence of class position in the possibilities of access to the IFES , of which the UFC is an integral part. From a social perspective of education, this study aimed to identify the effects that such changes in the freshmen\\\'s contests of admission had on the levels of gentrification at the institutional scope and of the higher courses of the UFC From descriptive nature and quantitative-longitudinal approach, the research was based on the Pareto\\\'s Theory of Elites to stablish numeric indicators, called rates of gentrification, useful for checking the de(gentrificational) trends in the academic field. The socioeconomic variables that supported the achievement of indexes concerned the family income. type of school of middle and high education; and maternal and paternal education from the entrant student body at the university in 2010, 2012 and 2013. From the institutional point of view, the results of the analysis showed that adherence to ENEM/SISU caused no change in the level of gentrification of the UFC. Thereafter, the advent of quotas subjected to a mild degentification. These results suggest, however, that such process would occur more sharply if the requisite household income, rather than the type of high school, appeared as the main criterion in the selection of the shareholders. With regard to the first group of courses studied, the imperial (Law, Medicine and Engineering), it was found that both ENEM/SISU as the quota system degentificate them almost in their entirety. In relation to the assembly of other courses, degree courses, it was observed that the ENEM / SISU reverberated in a manner contrary to the expected, since subjected them to gentrification; the quotas, on the other hand, reversed this degentificate trend embodied in the previous period. In this topic was also possible to fathom for incidental effect arising from the implementation of quotas: the slowdown of self-exclusion; phenomenon that distance humblest individuals of contests for access to the IES.

Les mesures du regroupement spatial des populations : aspects méthodologiques et applications aux grandes aires urbaines françaises / Measurement of population spatial clustering : theory aspect and application to the French urban areaDasré, Aurélien 04 December 2012 (has links)
L’étude des phénomènes de regroupement spatial des individus en milieu urbain se focalisesouvent sur les espaces les plus fortement polarisés, qu’il s’agisse des « ghettos » de « riches » ou de« pauvres ». Pourtant, ces quartiers ne représentent qu’une partie très congrue de l’espace urbainfrançais. Sans occulter l’existence de ces zones, ce travail se propose d’étudier les phénomènes deregroupement spatial sous un angle exhaustif. Ceci a nécessité le développement d’une méthodologiepermettant de rendre compte de la complexité de la spécialisation socioéconomique etsociodémographique des territoires. L’impact de l’échelle géographique retenue dans les analyses surles résultats aussi bien en terme d’intensité que d’évolution est ainsi apparu comme une donnéecentrale de la problématique. En se basant sur cette analyse comparative des échelles géographiquesde regroupement, ce travail dresse un panorama des profils de regroupements des individus dans 18aires urbaines françaises. Il est ainsi apparu qu’il existe une grande similarité de ces phénomènes entreles grandes villes. Les individus s’y distribuent selon un modèle sectoriel d’un point de vuesocioéconomique quand ils suivent un schéma concentrique d’un point de vue sociodémographique.La combinaison de ces deux logiques a ainsi permis une analyse globale des phénomènes deregroupement socio-spatial. / The study of spatial clustering’s phenomena of people in zones often focuses on the moststrongly polarized spaces, it can be about "ghettos" of "rich" or "poor people". Nevertheless, theseareas represent a small part of the French urban space. Without denying the existence of these zones,this work will study the phenomena of spatial clustering from an exhaustive point of view. Thisrequired the development of a methodology allowing to take into account the complexity of thesocioeconomic and sociodemographic specialization of territories. The impact of the geographicalscale selected in analyses, on the results both in term of intensity and evolution is turned to be acentral topic of the problematic. By basing itself on this comparative analysis of the geographicalscales of clustering, this work gives an overview of the clustering profiles in 18 French urban areas. Itappeared that there is a similarity of these phenomena between big cities. Human distributions followa sectorial model on a socioeconomic point of view when they follow a concentric model bysociodemographic variables. The combination of these two paradigms of grouping so allowed a globalanalysis of the phenomena of socio-spatial clustering.

Väljer vi ett polariserat samhälle? : En studie om individers sociala preferenser och hur de påverkar segregationens utformningFoureaux, Charlotte, Liang, Stephanie January 2017 (has links)
I denna uppsats har vi ämnat att öka förståelsen för hur människor påverkar segregationen genom sina egna preferenser. Vi har undersökt hur halmstadsbor resonerar kring segregationen i Halmstad och kring sina egna och andra bostadsområden i staden. Eftersom social blandning är ett ledande begrepp inom svensk stadsplanering har vi även haft som syfte att förstå hur halmstadsbor ser på detta i ett bostadsområde och om det är önskvärt eller inte. För att ta reda på det har vi genom en kombination av enkäter och intervjuer med halmstadinvånare samlat in empiri. Bearbetningen av empirin har utgått från en hermeneutisk metodologi och analysen har genomförts med hjälp av följande sociologiska teorier: Jenkins identitetsteori, Mays teori om tillhörighet, Goffmans stigmatiseringsteori, Wilkinson och Picketts definition av det sociala värderingshotet samt Lidskogs teori om det offentliga rummet och det mångkulturella samhället.Resultaten visar att segregationen i Halmstad till stor del är sammankopplad med strukturella faktorer såsom ekonomi och arbets- och bostadsmarknaden. Samtidigt är det också tydligt att sociala frågor som rör bland annat trygghet och social identitet är avgörande för en individs val av bostadsområde. Även bostadsområdenas rykten och vilken grad av tillhörighet individen har till området är faktorer som väger tungt. Resultatet visar även att en självvald segregation finns i staden, där människor aktivt väljer bostadsområden med likasinnade invånare. Den självvalda segregationen grundar sig i hur olika grupper på olika sätt skapar identiteter och känslor av platstillhörighet och trygghet. Trots att våra intervjupersoner och respondenter såg social blandning som något önskvärt uppmärksammades problem med att implementera det i praktiken av såväl ekonomiska som sociala anledningar. Det handlade bland annat om höga bostadspriser och konflikter mellan och rädsla hos olika sociokulturella grupper. / There is a big gap in knowledge when it comes to how segregation is influenced by people’s own preferences, which is what we aim to shed light on in this study. Since social mix is a leading concept amongst policy makers in Sweden we also wanted to study whether residents of Halmstad want to live in socially diverse neighbourhoods or not.This study investigates how residents of Halmstad reason about the city’s segregation and the city planners’ use of social and housing mix to combat the residential segregation. Through 106 surveys we determined the main themes of segregation and social mix, which we then where able to explore by using 6 interviews with locals. Our empirical findings were analysed with the help of the following sociological theories: Jenkin's identity theory, May’s theory of belonging, Goffman's stigma theory, Wilkinson and Pickett's definition of the social evaluative threats and Lidskog's theory of public space and the multicultural society.Our findings show that the segregation in Halmstad is largely linked to structural factors such as the economy and the labor and housing market. It is however clear that social and cultural issues related to the feeling of safety, rumors, social identity and different senses of belonging are crucial for the choice of one's residential area. Furthermore, it also shows that a self-chosen segregation exists in the city, where people actively choose residential areas where like-minded residents live. The self-chosen segregation is based on how different groups create their identities and a sense of belonging and safety in different ways. Although our interviewees and respondents saw opportunities in social mix they also problematised the implementation of social mix in a neighbourhood. They argued that economical aspects, such as the housing prices, and social aspects, such as conflicts and fear among different socio-cultural groups, hindered the process of creating social mix.
