As questoes que orientaram a pesquisa sao: de que forma os saberes matematicos constituiram as praticas de ensino de matematica de nivel medio (Normal/Magisterio) do Curso de Formacao analisado? Que praticas de ensino de matematica operaram na formacao de professores de anos iniciais no periodo analisado? Para dar conta de tais questoes, as ferramentas analiticas ?\praticas discursivas de formacao., ?\regimes de verdade. e ?\jogos de verdade. foram se constituindo juntamente com as analises do material, que consistiu de: um livro de atas de estagio, oito entrevistas com professores que trabalharam no Curso, quatro questionarios com supervisoras de estagio, um caderno de planejamentos, um Programa Experimental de Matematica, duas apostilas de planejamentos e duas propostas de estagio. Do exercicio de analise empreendido, resultaram dois movimentos, nomeados como regimes e jogos de verdade. No primeiro, sao apresentados os regimes de verdade constituidos na producao do desenvolvimento do raciocinio e do comportamento, a partir da alianca entre a psicologia e a pedagogia, no final do seculo XIX e inicio do seculo XX, no sentido de investir em praticas voltadas ao desenvolvimento do raciocinio, a producao de um sujeito inteligente, a aprendizagem de conceitos, ao uso do material concreto, ao raciocinio logico. No segundo movimento, os jogos de verdade e uma politica de verdade enfatizam as praticas de ensino de matematica voltadas aos discursos das pedagogias centradas na crianca, na pedagogia critica, em que a enfase esta em ensinar a partir do interesse da crianca, do tema gerador, da globalizacao e da realidade do aluno. Esses jogos de verdade produzem efeitos na formacao de professores, produzindo outra matematica, que assume a funcao de luta politica e esclarecimento de consciencias, tanto de alunos quanto de professores. Com essas praticas, produzem-se outros modos de ver e de dizer a matematica, o professor e o aluno. Dessa forma, a analise empreendida permitiu argumentar que as praticas de ensino de matematica nos anos iniciais constituem e sao constituidas por jogos de verdade que envolvem as concepcoes de conhecimento cientifico, de matematica, de ensino de cada epoca e de sujeito, articuladas pela razao de um Estado governamentalizado. / From approximations to both Foucauldian studies and investigations in the areas of education and mathematical education, this thesis problematizes the education provided by a Teaching Course from 1960 to 2000 in a countryside high school in Rio Grande do Sul to teachers who teach mathematics to the early grades. The questions that have guided this research are the following: How did mathematical knowledge constitute the mathematics teaching practices of the high school Teaching Course analyzed? Which mathematics teaching practices operated on the education of early grade teachers in the period analyzed? In order to address these questions, the analytical tools of ‘discursive education practices’, ‘regimes of truth’ and ‘games of truth’ were considered along the analysis of the material, which consisted of the following: a training record book, eight interviews with teachers that taught the Course, four questionnaires applied to training supervisors, a planning notebook, a Mathematics Experimental Program, two planning booklets and two training proposals. Two movements resulted from the analysis, and they were named as regimes and games of truth. The first one is related to regimes of truth constituted in the production of the development of reasoning and behavior, from the alliance between psychology and pedagogy in the late nineteenth century and early twentieth century by investing in practices directed to reasoning development, production of intelligent subjects, concept learning, use of concrete material, and logical reasoning. In the second movement, the games of truth and a politics of truth emphasize mathematics teaching practices directed to discourses of pedagogy centered on the child, in the critical pedagogy, in which the emphasis has been put on teaching from the child’s interest, the generating topic, the globalization and the student’s reality. Such games of truth have produced effects on teacher education by producing other kind of mathematics, one that assumes the function of political struggle, of enlightenment of consciences of students and teachers. With these practices, other ways of regarding and talking about mathematics, teachers and students have been produced. The analysis has led to the argument that the mathematics teaching practices of early grades both constitute and are constituted by games of truth, involving the conceptions of scientific knowledge, mathematics knowledge, teaching knowledge and subject in different times, and such conceptions are articulated by the reason of a governmentalized State.

Comment les professeurs d’anglais enseignent-ils la culture ? Quels types de culture et quelles compétences culturelles ciblent-ils ? Quels sont les objectifs, les buts éducatifs, les méthodes et les stratégies mobilisées pour servir cet enseignement ? Cette thèse compréhensive de type écologique s’intéresse prioritairement aux observables liés aux enseignants ainsi qu’aux interprétations de la situation par les professeurs et par leurs élèves (Altet, 2003). Dans ce cadre, des éléments de contexteont été définis, un certain nombre de concepts et de théories ont été précisées pour permettre d’appréhender le concept de culture selon des perspectives multiples. Il s’agit de parvenir à une compréhension plus aboutie des processus à l’œuvre, selon le paradigme de complexité (Morin, 1990). Une enquête empirique permet d’étudier les conceptions et les pratiques des professeurs d’anglais en matière d’enseignement de la culture. Cette enquête comprend un questionnaire, des observations de cours encadrées par des entretiens conduits auprès des professeurs dont les cours ont été filmés. Les pré-entretiens sont semi-directifs ; les post-entretiens relèvent de la méthodologie de l’auto-confrontation simple. Des interviews d’élèves ayant participé à ces cours ont également été réalisées. Les résultats obtenus attestent qu’un genre professionnel s’est constitué chez ces professeurs d’anglais lorsqu’ils enseignent la culture. Derrière ces genres, une grande variété de styles personnels émerge. / How do English teachers teach culture? Which types of culture and cultural competencies do they target? What are the objectives, the educative goals, the methods and the strategies used to teach culture? This doctoral thesis is comprehensive with an ecological approach. It mainly focuses on observables related to the teachers, their interpretations of the situation under study and their students’ interpretations (Altet, 2003). In this perspective contextual elements have been defined and several concepts and theories have been investigated so as to study the concept of culture from several angles. The aim of this research is to develop a deeper understanding of the processes at work, to be grasped within the paradigm of complexity (1990, Morin). The conceptions and the teaching practices developed by English teachers to teach culture have been studied thanks to an empirical inquiry. This enquiry consists of a questionnaire and of a series of interviews made before the teachers’ lessons were filmed and after they were filmed. The pre-interviews were semi-directive and the post-interviews were simple self-confrontation interviews. Students who took part in the lessons that were filmed were also interviewed. The results show that these English teachers have developed a professional genre when teaching culture. Along with this shared teaching genre a wide range of personal teaching styles have emerged.

This study aims to expand studies on ESL/EFL teachers’ beliefs by investigating the relationship among Korean teachers’ beliefs about English language education in Korea, sources of their beliefs, their perceptions of the Ministry of Education, Science, and Technology (MOE)-initiated reforms in English language education, and the degree of implementation of the reforms in their classroom teaching. Toward that end, the study employed both quantitative and qualitative research instruments: a survey with a questionnaire, interviews, and observations. The study surveyed 158 in-service teachers. Among these 158 teachers, 10 were selected for interviews and observations. Each of the 10 teachers was interviewed three times and his/her classroom teaching observed twice. The findings of the study indicate: a) the beliefs held by the majority of the participants were based on the communication-oriented approaches (COA) to English language teaching, which has been recommended by the MOE in its efforts to reform English language education in Korea; b) major sources of the participants’ beliefs seemed to be their experiences as learners in overseas English programs and domestic in-service teacher education programs with practical curricula; c) the teacher participants’ perceptions of the reforms’ general direction were largely consistent with their COA-based beliefs, but their perceptions of specific reform policies and measures were dictated by their concerns with realities of EFL education and their positions; and d) not the participants’ beliefs but their negative perceptions of reform policies and measures AND the constraints they cited were the main obstacles to the implementation of the reform policies and measures in their classroom teaching. The findings reveal gaps and mismatches among the participants’ beliefs, perceptions, and practices. The study interprets such gaps and mismatches not as inconsistencies but as symptoms of a transitional stage through which English language education in Korea has been going. The study discusses the implications of the findings for Korean EFL teachers, EFL/ESL teacher education programs, and reform agents. The study ends with four suggestions for future research.

With the acceptance of Outcomes-based Education (OBE) in South Africa, the emphasis shifted from a teacher-centred to a learner-centred instruction approach. The learner-centred teaching approach of OBE is based on the social constructivistic teaching view. This view is based on the fundamental acceptance that people construe knowledge through interaction between their existing knowledge and beliefs and new ideas or situations within a social environment or milieu. It is thus essential that future Geography education students receive training in a similar manner as that which is expected of them as future practising teachers. Lecturers' and students' beliefs and perceptions of how instruction must take place, in the majority of cases, still support the traditional direct instruction approach where lecturers transfer knowledge to students mainly through formal lectures. The acceptance of the social constructivistic teaching approach for the training of Geography education students implies that the beliefs of lecturers and students as well as their roles in the teaching learning process, must change. This means that the purpose of contact time between lecturer and students must necessarily change. Contact time should not just be used by the lecturer for presenting content. It is the task of the Geography lecturer to create a learning environment where students are actively involved in cooperative learning environments in the learning process. The lecturer acts as facilitator, guide, enabler and fellow-explorer in the learning process. Contact sessions must be used to offer the students the opportunity to report back on the learning assignments and activities or to reflect on what has been learnt. Continuous formative assessment takes place during contact and non-contact times to give quick feedback on learning. The lecturer and students are involved in the assessment process. Clear assessment criteria must be compiled by the lecturer in cooperation with students so that the students will know precisely what is expected of them. Together with the learner-centred teaching approach, certain universities worldwide have been obliged to decrease contact time between lecturer and student. Reasons for this can mainly be ascribed to an increase in student numbers and to effectively vii manage the lecturers' time so that more time can be spent on research. The lecturer is supposed to design and plan a specific module so that the set learning outcomes could be achieved within the reduced time. Different guidelines are identified in the context of reducing contact time so as to ensure the effective achievement of learning outcomes. The lecturer should prepare, plan and manage contact time. Students must also accept larger responsibility for independent learning and attain some of the learning outcomes during non-contact times. To support students during non-contact times and to guide them in the attainment of learning outcomes and completion of assignments, students must make use of resource-based learning. The interactive study guide and work planning, as developed and compiled by the lecturer, is necessary for providing students with assistance and guidance so that students know precisely what is expected of them, what resources to use and when. It is furthermore necessary that the assessment strategies, that are used in the teaching of Geography, support the decrease in contact time. Bigger responsibility is given to students in the assessment process and is included in self and peer group assessment of and feedback to assignments. The Geography education lecturer involved in the development of the different Geography modules must make sure that over-assessment does not take place, but that students are exposed to multiple assessment methods. Decision-making by university management on decreased contact time was probably taken without considering the full implications for learner-centred teaching. This study is an attempt to implement a learner-centred teaching approach in the Geography training of education students within the optimising of contact time between lecturer and students. A concept model for the Geography training of education students was developed to ensure the successful attainment of learning outcomes. The perception and attitudes of the students regarding the concept model in Geography-training within the optimising of contact time was analysed, after which the examination results of the students were compared with results of previous years. From the information required in the literature as well as in the implementation of the concept model in Geography training, criteria and strategies for the effective training of Geography teachers in the optimising of contact time were developed. / Thesis (Ph.D.)--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2005.

Despite high achievement by many Māori (indigenous people of Aotearoa New Zealand) students there is still a disparity between the achievements of Māori students and Non Māori students in the New Zealand educational context. Given that over 85% of Māori students are currently in mainstream settings rather than Māori medium settings the Government has initiated and supported teacher professional development approaches in efforts to enhance teacher effectiveness for teachers working with Māori in mainstream settings. This investigation looks specifically at the practice of four teachers who have been on the Te Kauhua/Māori in Mainstream Pilot project in a decile1 5 Intermediate school in the South Island of New Zealand. An important aspect of this investigation is that it listens to and includes the voices and opinions of eight students who are in the classes of these teachers. Early on in the Te Kauhua project teachers at the school articulated that it was the lack of engagement from their Māori students that was the problem and they wanted to look at ways in which they could maximise Māori student engagement in the classroom learning contexts. The particular aim of this investigation was to look at specific strategies and practices that teachers used to successfully maximise Māori student engagement in the classroom curriculum. The results highlighted the importance of the quality of the relationship between the teacher and the students, the positive impact of the extra effort that teachers applied to engage their students and the students’ preferences for working in small groups. Underpinning these aspects of practice was the importance that teachers placed on developing their reflective practice and the participation in small learning professional learning groups.

La présente recherche vise à décrire les pratiques d’enseignement de la littératie au premier cycle du primaire en contexte montréalais d’enseignants considérés experts. Plus précisément, les trois objectifs de recherche consistent à décrire les pratiques d’enseignement de la langue écrite au premier cycle du primaire en contexte montréalais privilégiées par certains enseignants considérés experts (N=6) (objectif 1); à décrire les différentes formes de différenciation pédagogique privilégiées pour l’enseignement de la lecture et de l’écriture en contexte montréalais de certains enseignants considérés experts afin de répondre aux besoins variés de tous leurs élèves (objectif 2) et à étudier les liens possibles entre les pratiques d’enseignement de la langue écrite d’enseignants considérés experts et la progression de leurs élèves (N=100) du premier cycle du primaire en contexte montréalais, au regard de leur connaissance des correspondances phonographiques et de la norme orthographique (objectif 3). Afin de répondre aux objectifs, deux entretiens ont été menés auprès des enseignantes, de même que deux observations en classe, une à l’automne et une au printemps. Pour leur part, les élèves ont été soumis à deux tâches d’écriture à deux reprises durant l’année (une tâche de production de mots et une tâche de production de texte) permettant de mesurer leur progression en cours d’année relativement à leurs connaissances des correspondances phonographiques et de la norme orthographique. Nos résultats nous ont permis de recueillir des pratiques très diversifiées et conduites avec une fréquence fort différente d’une enseignante à l’autre. La densité des contenus abordés en classe diffère également beaucoup entre les enseignantes. En lien avec le modèle du multi-agenda de Bucheton et Soulé (2009), les cinq composantes constituant la matrice de l’activité de l’enseignant se retrouvent dans toutes les classes, mais ces préoccupations n’occupent pas toutes la même place dans les pratiques des enseignantes de la recherche. Nos résultats indiquent aussi que toutes les enseignantes différencient leur enseignement, mais de façon variable. Il semble que ce soit la différenciation des processus, des contenus et des structures qui soit la plus aisée à mettre en place en classe. En lien avec notre adaptation du modèle de différenciation pédagogique de Caron (2008), il semble que ce soit la diversification et l’offre de choix qui sont mobilisées le plus fréquemment. Les mesures d’adaptation sont rarement mises en avant dans les pratiques de classe, tandis que les mesures d’individualisation n’ont pas été constatées. En ce qui a trait aux résultats des élèves aux tâches en écriture, nos résultats indiquent que deux groupes se démarquent parmi les six. En effet, c’est dans ces deux classes que la plus forte progression est constatée. Les pratiques des enseignantes de ces deux classes sont très diversifiées et elles sont les seules à mettre en avant dans leurs pratiques tous les dispositifs dont il est question en entretiens. De plus, les contenus enseignés sont denses, ce qui est réputé pour caractériser les pratiques des enseignants efficaces (Hall, 2003). De même, ces deux enseignantes offrent un étayage de grande qualité à leurs élèves et maîtrisent parfaitement le pilotage des tâches. La présente recherche peut servir à apporter un éclairage nouveau sur les pratiques de littératie des enseignants considérés experts afin de mieux comprendre leurs pratiques, de même que la place qu’ils accordent à la différenciation pédagogique. / The present research document aims to describe the practices of literacy of teachers considered as experts in an early elementary school context in Montreal. Specifically, the three research objectives of our work are as follows: describe the teaching practices applied to written language used by some teachers considered as experts (N = 6) in an early elementary school context in Montreal (objective 1); describe the various types of differentiated teaching selected by some teachers considered as experts in a Montreal-specific context to teach reading and writing skills according to the varying needs of their students (objective 2); and investigate possible links between the teaching practices applied to the acquisition of writing skills used by teachers considered as experts and the progress made by their students (N = 100) in the first cycle of elementary school in a Montreal, in terms of their knowledge of phonographic relationships and the spelling standard (objective 3). In order to meet these goals, we conducted two interviews with teachers, and ran two classroom observations, one in the fall and the other in spring. For their part, students were subjected to two writing tasks twice during the year (one aimed at word generation and the other at text production) to measure their progress during the year as it relates to their knowledge of phonographic relationships and to the spelling standard. Results showed that teaching practices as well as frequency vary greatly from one teacher to another. The richness of the material presented in class also differs greatly. In accordance with the multi-agenda model of Bucheton and Soulé (2009), the five components of the activity matrix of the teacher were found in all classes, but did not have the same importance for every one of the teachers engaged in our research. The results also indicate that all teachers differentiate their teaching, although at varying degrees. It seems that differentiation of processes, of contents and of structures is the easiest factor to implement in the classroom. In line with our adaptation of Caron’s model of differentiated instruction (2008), it seems that the elements that were most mobilized were diversification and the offering of choices. Adaptation measures were seldom emphasized in classroom practices, while no measures of individualization were observed. In regard to student performance in writing tasks, our results indicate that two groups stand out among the six. Indeed, it is in these two classes that we observed the greatest increase. Practices used by the teachers in these two classes were very diverse and they were the only ones who used all of the methods discussed in interviews. Furthermore, the content of the course was rich, a characteristic of effective teaching practices (Hall 2003). Similarly, these two teachers offered their students a high quality scaffolding and mastered coaching tasks. This research can be used to shed new light on the practices of literacy used by teachers that are considered as experts in order to better understand these practices, as well as the importance given to differentiated instruction.

Our paper presents some preliminary observation from a collaborative exploratory study linking mathematics, science and reading within a technology enhanced problem-based learning scenario conducted at one French Canadian Elementary and Middle School. Presented in a form of dialogue between teacher and researcher, our findings give some meaningful insight in how an innovative mathematics teaching can be developed and implemented using a real-world problem solving. Instead of a traditional presentation of material about lighting up homes, participating mathematics, science and French teachers were working collaboratively with the ICT integration mentor and two university professors helping students investigate a problem from various perspectives using a variety of cognitive and metacognitive strategies, discussing and sharing the finding with peers and presenting them to a larger audience using media tools. Our preliminary results may prompt further investigation of how innovation in teaching and learning can help students become better critical thinkers and scientifically empowered citizens.

La recherche réalisée s’attache à éclairer « les pratiques inclusives en mathématiques d’enseignants de classe ordinaire dans le premier degré » dans un contexte de changement requis pour les enseignants du système éducatif français qui depuis 2005 sont confrontés à l’accueil des élèves reconnus institutionnellement handicapés. L’état des lieux réalisé conduit à envisager cette scolarisation comme un nouvel enjeu de la culture enseignante, où la question de l’accessibilité au savoir apparaît comme un problème professionnel. C’est pourquoi notre recherche s’est intéressée à la question suivante : en quoi l’inclusion d’un élève reconnu institutionnellement handicapé questionne les praxéologies enseignantes ? Pour instruire cette question, nous nous inscrivons dans le cadre de la didactique professionnelle et dans celui de la théorie anthropologique du didactique. Sous l’influence d’un dispositif à double institution, le modèle d’analyse construit, permet d’étudier le travail enseignant dans la classe tout comme celui du développement professionnel. Ce travail est mené à partir de captations numériques de séances de classe, d’entretiens ante et post et d’analyses simples et croisées. Il permet de mettre en évidence des praxéologies professionnelles relatives au type de tâche « donner une place à l’élève reconnu institutionnellement handicapé en milieu ordinaire » et des évolutions du rapport personnel des enseignants à l’inclusion scolaire. Il contribue également à un dialogue entre la didactique professionnelle et la théorie anthropologique du didactique par l’introduction du système notionnel de praxéologie, d’institution et de rapport personnel d’un sujet x à un objet O / The research carried out aims to describe the “inclusive practices of regular classroom teachers in the teaching of mathematics at primary level” within a context of necessary change for teachers in the French education system, who since 2005 have had to face the task of integrating pupils recognised as having institutional disabilities. The situational analysis carried out leads us to regard the schooling of such pupils as a new challenge for teaching culture, where the issue of accessibility to knowledge is a professional problem. Our research therefore focused on the following question: What question does the inclusion of a pupil recognised as having institutional disabilities raise about the praxeology of teaching? To explore this question, we need to take account of professional didactics as well as the Anthropological Theory of Didactics. Based on a dual institution study, the model of analysis that is constructed makes it possible to examine both work related to teaching in the classroom and to professional development. The research is carried out using digital recordings of lessons, interviews conducted before and after, as well as simple and cross analyses. It allows us to gain insight into the professional praxeology relating to such a task as that of “ensuring pupils recognised as having institutional disabilities have their place in a regular classroom environment”, as well as changes in teachers’ own personal relation towards inclusive education. Moreover, it contributes to a dialogue between professional didactics and the Anthropological Theory of Didactics by introducing the notional system of praxeology, institution and the personal relation of a subject X towards an object (O)

The present work has the purpose of analyzing texwork propositions in 5 classrooms of the first grade in five different town government supported elementary schools in the city of Maceio, Alagoas State. In order to accomplish the study it were considered proposed themes suggested in five portuguese language textbooks officially adopted by the institutions and other didatical materials used by the teachers. The procedure and methods used for the data gathering, concerning the quality approach, consisted in the observation of language teaching classrooms, remarking in the researcher´s diary, and the collection and digitallyzing of manuscripts found in the student´s notebooks. We realized that the teachers do very little use of the adopted texbooks, and it wasn´t found any texwork propositions which has had reference to the didatical materials. We could also observe that this default reveals itself not only in the teachers but also the school cordinators, they either don´t know about or don´t regard in their practice the educational policies(federal and local) about classrooms textworks concerns . Which means, the two identified propositions of textworks don´t remind, at the least, the writing process and it´s interaction appeal, in comunication and social concerns. Besides, there weren´t any planning by the teachers, that, in proposing to the students those themes, they seemed to do it just for time class fulfillment. By the end, this study comes to realize that almost there weren´t textwork propositions in those classes ; which indicates a deep disconcern amongst those suggested textwork propositions found in the adopted Portuguese language textbooks that, besides their differences, are developed according to oficially estabilshed criteria and the ones brought by the teachers to the classroom. / Este trabalho teve como objetivo analisar as propostas de produção de textos em cinco salas de aula de 1ª série do Ensino Fundamental de cinco escolas da Rede Municipal de Ensino de Maceió, estado de Alagoas. Para a efetivação dessa análise foram consideradas as propostas de produção sugeridas por cinco livros didáticos de português adotados oficialmente pela instituição e outros materiais didáticos usados pelos professores. O procedimento metodológico utilizado para a coleta dos dados consistiu na abordagem qualitativa, mediante a observação de aulas de ensino de língua, fazendo-se o registro em diário de campo, e o recolhimento e digitalização dos manuscritos escolares encontrados nos cadernos dos alunos. Pudemos constatar que os docentes fazem muito pouco uso do livro didático adotado, e não foi encontrada nenhuma proposta de produção de texto que tenha tido como referência didática as orientações desse material. Também se observou que essa ausência revela que, tanto as professoras quanto as coordenadoras pedagógicas, desconhecem ou não consideram em sua prática as diretrizes curriculares (federal e municipal) sobre o trabalho com produção de texto em sala de aula, ou seja, as duas propostas de produção textual identificadas não respeitaram, minimamente, o processo de escritura e sua dinâmica interacional, comunicativa e social. Além disso, não houve qualquer tipo de planejamento por parte das professoras, que, ao proporem aos alunos aquelas produções, usaram-nas como forma de preenchimento do tempo didático do aluno. Por fim, esse estudo concluiu que praticamente não foram realizadas propostas de produção de texto nessas séries; fator que indicia um hiato profundo entre aquelas propostas de produção sugeridas pelos livros didáticos de português adotados que, apesar de suas diferenças, são elaborados segundo critérios estabelecidos oficialmente e o que o professor faz em sala de aula.
