Growing Change: The Youth for EcoAction ProgramFulford, Stephanie 11 April 2012 (has links)
The Youth for EcoAction (YEA) Program is a project of the Boys and Girls Clubs of Winnipeg involving youth at risk in after-school programming. The program focuses on urban agriculture and gardening projects and was developed using the circle of courage model of youth empowerment. This research used participatory methods, including participatory video to analyze the program and its benefits.
The YEA program creates positive change in the lives of participants and at a community-wide level. These benefits include skill building and job training, improved self esteem, nutrition and food security, increased environmental awareness and behaviour, and greater community strength. Youth serving agencies, community development organizations and government policy makers should look to the YEA program as a model for youth empowerment and community revitalization.
This thesis also explores benefits of participatory research, specifically participatory video, and documents the personal learnings and journey of the author from researcher to practitioner.

Pedagogisk samling i förskolan : En kvalitativ studie om förskollärarnas tankar kring samlingens betydelse för barns språkliga och sociala utveckling / Educational circle time in pre-school : A qualitative study of pre-school teachers' thoughts on the circle time for children's linguistic and social developmentMatossian, Sara, Pereira Cortes, Stephanye January 2014 (has links)
The purpose of this study is to examine how pre-school teachers think about the importance of circle time in regard to the child's language and social development from a sociocultural perspective. Furthermore the study will include what role the educators’ have during the circle time. To answer our purpose we have chosen the following question: What is the role of the teachers in the circle time? What are the teacher’s thoughts about the circle time’s importance to children's social development? What are the teacher’s thoughts about the circle time’s importance to children's language development? The study is constructed on qualitative methods, where we conducted structured interviews with six preschool teachers and observed their circle time to collect our empirical material. The study is also based on Vygotsky's sociocultural perspective which says that all learning takes place through relations and interaction with other people in the cultural context you are in. The results have shown that pre-school teachers are aware of the circle time’s importance to children’s development, and purposely plan the circle time to give children the opportunity to develop both socially and linguistically skills.

Identification of viral-based replicating vectors suitable for the development of a sugarcane bioreactorPirlo, Steven Dominic January 2007 (has links)
The circular, single-stranded (ss) DNA genomes of plant viruses in the families Geminiviridae and Nanoviridae are replicated within the nucleus of a host cell by a mechanism called rolling circle replication (RCR). Although this process relies almost exclusively on the replication machinery of the host cell, initiation occurs via the interaction of the viral replication initiation protein (Rep) with regulatory DNA sequences within the viral genome. The use of a virus-based episomal amplification technology as a plant bioreactor platform exploits the process of Rep-mediated RCR for the high-level amplification of virus-based episomes in plants and subsequent expression of heterologous proteins; such an approach offers advantages over existing gene expression technologies. This PhD thesis describes research towards the development of a virus-based episomal amplification system for use in sugarcane. Such a crop is ideally suited for a plant bioreactor system due to the efficient high-level production of plant biomass and the existence of established production, harvesting and processing infrastructure. In order to rapidly assess the potential of a virus-based episomal amplification system in sugarcane, a transient assay system was established. Sugarcane callus was identified as the most suitable cell preparation; providing rapid cell regeneration, uniform experimental samples and upon isolation, total DNA suitable for Southern analysis. This assay system once established, proved effective in rapidly identifying virus-based episomes capable of undergoing RCR within sugarcane host cells. This transient assay system was then used to test the functionality of a virus-based episomal amplification system based on the ssDNA virus, Banana bunchy top virus (BBTV) in sugarcane. BBTV-based episomal amplification vectors were constructed with a reporter gene expression cassette flanked by two copies of the BBTV regulatory DNA sequences. The episomal amplification vectors were bombarded into sugarcane and banana host cells in various combinations and evidence of RCR was assessed through Southern blot analysis. RCR products were identified in banana host cells bombarded with the BBTV-based episomal amplification vectors in combination with vectors encoding BBTV Master-Rep (M Rep). RCR products were not identified within sugarcane cells bombarded with the same construct combinations. Integrated InPAct (In Plant Activation) episomal vectors based on BBTV were then employed to confirm the transient results, in addition, the functionality of an InPAct vector based on an alternate virus, Tobacco yellow dwarf virus (TYDV) was also assessed. InPAct vectors based on BBTV were constructed with an untranslatable expression cassette for integration within the sugarcane genome. Transient experiments were performed to assess the ability of BBTV M-Rep and TYDV Rep to initiate RCR of their respective InPAct vectors. Visual observation of GFP expression indicated that BBTV M-Rep was capable of initiating RCR of the BBTVbased InPAct vectors within banana host cells but no evidence was observed in sugarcane host cells. TYDV Rep was capable of initiating RCR of the TYDV-based InPAct vector within sugarcane host cells with a 100-fold increase in the number of fluorescent foci compared to cells bombarded with the TYDV InPAct vector alone. The BBTV-based InPAct vector was stably integrated within the sugarcane genome and the ability for BBTV M-Rep to initiate episome formation and RCR was assessed by Southern blot analysis. Evidence of BBTV M-Rep mediated RCR was not detected within the transgenic sugarcane bombarded with BBTV M-Rep. Transgenic sugarcane containing the TYDV-based InPAct vectors was assessed for the ability to be activated by TYDV Rep and undergo RCR. Southern blot analysis demonstrated that TYDV Rep was capable of recognising the integrated TYDVbased InPAct vector and RCR was detected within the transgenic sugarcane. The observation that episomal vectors based on TYDV were functional within sugarcane host cells and BBTV-based vectors were not, was unexpected. It had been hypothesised that an episomal vector based on a monocot-infecting virus would replicate in an alternate monocot host, while an episomal vector based on a dicot infecting virus would not. Virus replication is thought to be host-specific however most host range studies have been conducted with full length infectious clones and not deconstructed virus-based episomes. The implication that viral Reps may be functional in plant cells of non-host species was then investigated. The ability for viral Reps to recognise their cognate IR and initiate RCR of virus-based episomes in different host cells was assessed through cross-replication experiments. Four ssDNA plant viruses; BBTV, TYDV, Chloris striate mosaic virus (CSMV) and Tomato leaf curl virus - Australia (ToLCV-Au) were assessed via Southern blot analysis for their ability to initiate both autonomous replication of infectious clones and episomal amplification within three different plant hosts; tobacco, sugarcane and banana. Results from cross replication studies indicated a complex interaction between viral and host replication components. BBTV infectious clones and episomal vectors were restricted to replication within banana host cells providing a clear indication that episomal amplification vectors based on BBTV are restricted to Musa spp. BBTV M-Rep was unable to recognise the viral regulatory DNA sequences of the other three ssDNA viruses. TYDV infectious clones and episomal vectors were capable of replicating within all three host cells tested, indicating that TYDV is capable of undergoing RCR within a broad range of plant hosts. TYDV Rep was also capable of recognising the viral regulatory DNA sequences of both CSMV and BBTV given favourable conditions within specific plant hosts. Replication of the CSMV infectious clone was not detected in any of the three host cells, although fidelity of this clone requires further confirmation. CSMV episomal vectors were functional within banana host cells only, indicating that although closely related to TYDV, episomal amplification vectors based on CSMV have a restricted host range. CSMV Rep could not initiate RCR of episomal amplification vectors containing the viral regulatory DNA regions of the other three viruses in any of the plant host cells. ToLCV-Au infectious clones were capable of replicating within banana and tobacco host cells. Episomal amplification vectors based on ToLCV-Au extended the host range to sugarcane. ToLCV-Au Rep was unable to recognise the viral regulatory DNA sequences of the other three viruses in any of the plant host cells. The ability for a viral Rep to recognise its own cognate regulatory DNA sequences within alternate plant host cells is variable. Episomal amplification vectors based on TYDV and ToLCV-Au appear to be the most suitable for the further development of a virusbased bioreactor system in sugarcane. This study details the initial steps taken towards the development of a virus-based episomal amplification system in sugarcane. In doing so, fundamental knowledge into the mechanisms involved in Rep recognition of viral regulatory DNA sequences has been gathered. These research findings will provide a solid foundation for the further development of a sugarcane-based bioreactor.

DA ENCICLOPÉDIA ENQUANTO UM CÍRCULO QUE SE FECHA À WIKIPÉDIA ENQUANTO UMA REDE QUE ABRE: UM GESTO INTERPRETATIVO / FROM THE ENCYCLOPEDIA AS A CLOSED CIRCLE TO THE WIKIPEDIA AS AN OPEN NET: AN INTERPRETATIVE GESTUREScotta, Larissa 14 March 2008 (has links)
Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior / In this research we promote a reflection about the passage that we believe to exist from an (illusory) totality of knowledges discursively constructed in encyclopedias
regarding versions spatially limited of this technological instrument to an impossibility of construction of this totality on Wikipedia virtual site, considered for many subjects as the complete encyclopedia . From an intermediate theoretical position between French Discourse Analysis and History of Ideas, we believe that, even though a discourse about the Wikipedia circulates signifying it as the encyclopedia where the numerical totality of knowledges could be stored , due to Wikipedia to be open to collaborative edition and to introduce itself as a indefinitely open net, make impossible any attempt of apprehension of all . In order to problematize around these questions, initially, we give a brief overview concerning of total knowledge utopia found in fullness on the Library of Alexandria, for the reason what we understand that such utopia is constitutive of the imaginary about encyclopedia. After this overview, we looked for understanding what is being considered as an encyclopedia in the course of time. Following, we focus the Wikipedia and the discourse that circulates about it. Bearing in mind what we discussed with reference to what an encyclopedia is and about the Wikipedia configuration, we propose to deem the encyclopedia as a closed circle and the Wikipedia as an open net. / O problema de pesquisa sobre o qual nos propomos a refletir nesta dissertação tem como foco a passagem que entendemos existir de uma totalidade (ilusória) dos
saberes construída discursivamente nas enciclopédias, que se daria nas versões limitadas espacialmente de tal instrumento tecnológico, para uma impossibilidade de se construir uma totalidade como esta em um sítio virtual como o da Wikipédia,
considerada por muitos sujeitos a enciclopédia completa . Colocando-nos em uma posição teórica de entremeio da Análise de Discurso de orientação francesa com a
História das Idéias, a nossa interpretação é a de que, embora esteja circulando um discurso sobre a Wikipédia o qual a significaria como a enciclopédia em que a totalidade numérica dos saberes poderia ser abarcada, o próprio fato de a Wikipédia ser aberta à edição colaborativa e, portanto, apresentar-se como uma rede que se abre indefinidamente, impossibilitaria qualquer tentativa de apreensão do todo .
Para problematizarmos em torno desta questão, inicialmente fazemos uma breve incursão à utopia do saber total que se apresenta em sua plenitude na Biblioteca de Alexandria, pois entendemos que tal utopia faz parte da constituição do imaginário de enciclopédia e, após tal incursão, buscamos compreender o que vem sendo considerado uma enciclopédia ao longo dos tempos. Posteriormente, centramo-nos
na Wikipédia e neste discurso que estaria circulando sobre ela. A partir do que apresentamos relativamente ao que seja uma enciclopédia e à configuração da Wikipédia, propomos conceber a enciclopédia enquanto um círculo que se fecha e
a Wikipédia enquanto uma rede que se abre .

Previous issue date: 2018-02-16 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) / Esta dissertação pensa a respeito do embate de vozes que existe no interior da escola, entre os discursos que representam a tradição escolar ou a força ideológica dominante e os discursos de resistência, entendidos como as vozes dos estudantes dentro deste processo dialético e dialógico, a partir do estudo de caso, em uma turma de 6º. ano, em uma escola estadual, da cidade de Tarumã/SP. Deste embate, o que se observa é um processo de apagamento da voz do aluno, um silenciamento gerado pela predominância da voz sistêmica e dominante, reproduzida pelo professor em sala de aula. Frente a este contexto, encontramos no poetry slam um espaço em que o aluno pode proferir os seus discursos, de acordo com suas idiossincrasias, reconhecendo que a escola também é o lugar da livre reflexão, da pluralidade de pensamento e da arte. Desse modo, neste trabalho buscamos (i) observar como se dá o embate de vozes dentro da escola e analisar como os jovens estudantes colocam-se frente a uma situação escolar em que são convidados a expressarem sua voz; (ii) estimular a escrita de enunciados autorais, de cunho poético-literário, reconhecendo o estudante também como sujeito autor; (iii) proporcionar ao aluno um contexto real de produção, circulação e apreciação estética de enunciados. A partir das atividades desenvolvidas por meio do poetry slam ou batalha de poesia, também analisamos de que maneira os discursos dos alunos foram arquitetados em suas poesias, com relação ao conteúdo temático, forma composicional e estilo. Fundamentamos nossa análise nos estudos do círculo de Bakhtin, sob a perspectiva dialético-dialógica de análise do discurso, portanto. Discutem-se as concepções de gêneros discursivos, voz social, ideologia, responsividade e estética, principalmente para pensar a respeito do ensino público de língua portuguesa e como este pode reforçar o silenciamento dos alunos ou, por outro lado, tornar-se um espaço de possibilidade discursiva. Reflete-se ainda sobre a concepção de poesia, sua função social, a sua presença no cotidiano escolar, bem como a sua relação com os cânones literários. Nossa metodologia, também calcada nos estudos bakhtinianos, contempla os conceitos de alteridade, silêncio e voz, cronotopo e exotopia. Os resultados obtidos mostram que, apesar da resistência oferecida pelo sistema de ensino, é possível construir espaços que privilegiam a voz dos estudantes no ambiente escolar / The concerning of this dissertation is think about the clash of voices that exists inside the school, between the discourses that represent the school tradition or within the dominant ideological strength. That voices can be seen as resistance discourses, understood as voice of students within this dialectical and dialogical process, from of a case study, in a class of 6° year, in a State School, at the city of Tarumã / SP. From this clash of voices, what is observed is a process of erasing the student's voice, a silencing generated by the predominance of the systemic and dominant voice, reproduced by the teacher in the classroom. Against this background, we find in poetry slam a space in which the student can utter his speeches, according to his idiosyncrasies, recognizing that the school is also the place of free reflection, plurality of thought and art. Thus, in this work we seek to (i) observe how the clash of voices within the school occurs and analyze how young students put themselves in front of a school situation in which they are invited to express their voice; (ii) stimulate the writing and production of authorial poetic-literary utterances, recognizing the student also as subject author; (iii) provide the student a real context of production, circulation and aesthetic appreciation of this kind of utterance. From the activities developed through the poetry slam or battle of poetry, we also analyze how the students' discourses were architected in their poetry, in relation to the thematic content, compositional form and style. We base our analysis on Bakhtin's circle studies, from the dialectical-dialogical perspective of discourse analysis. Conceptions of discursive genres, social voice, ideology, responsiveness and aesthetics are discussed, mainly to think about public Portuguese-language teaching and how this teaching can reinforce students' silencing or, on the other hand, become a space for discursive possibility. This work also discusses on the conception of poetry, its social function, its presence in the daily school life, as well as its relationship with the literary canons. Our methodology, also based on the Bakhtinian studies, include the concepts of alterity, silence and voice, chronotope and exotopia. The results obtained show that, despite the resistance offered by the education system, it is possible to construct spaces that favor the voice of students in the school environment / 5649480

Políticas públicas de formação continuada de professores : investigações sobre o Mestrado nacional profissional em ensino de físicaRebeque, Paulo Vinicius dos Santos January 2017 (has links)
Na presente tese de doutorado, apresentamos nossas investigações acerca do Mestrado Nacional Profissional em Ensino de Física (MNPEF) enquanto dispositivo de política pública de formação continuada de professores. O desenvolvimento de nossa pesquisa foi fundamentado na articulação dos quadros conceituais da Sociologia da Ação Pública e da Filosofia da Linguagem do Círculo de Bakhtin. Nessa perspectiva, nosso esquema geral de investigação consistiu na análise bakhtiniana de uma complexa cadeia de enunciados oriundos dos modos de regulação que delimitamos no interior do MNPEF, notadamente, a regulação de controle e a regulação autônoma. Assim, concentrados nos primeiros 21 Polos Regionais (PR) do MNPEF criados em 2013, nosso objetivo foi estudar os modos de regulação desse programa, descrevendo e analisando a existência dos modos de regulação de controle - estruturas concebidas para coordenar e orientar as ações dos atores sociais - e dos modos de regulação autônoma, relativos à forma como esses atores convivem e (re)ajustam essas orientações. O corpus de nossa pesquisa foi construído, por um lado, pautado na regulação de controle e uma cadeia de documentos referentes tanto ao contexto específico do MNPEF, quanto o contexto amplo da pós-graduação nacional, e, por outro lado, no âmbito da regulação autônoma, por trabalhos de conclusão oriundos das primeiras turmas e por entrevistas realizadas com professores que atuam em distintos PR. Nossas investigações apontam o MNPEF como um dispositivo de política pública multirregulado, balizado sobretudo pelas regulamentações da Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) para os cursos de Mestrado Profissional em Ensino (MPE) e pelos órgãos administrativos nomeados pela Sociedade Brasileira de Física (SBF), entidade coordenadora do programa. Ao olharmos para o MNPEF como uma ação pública, identificamos a coexistência de modos de regulação de controle e de regulação autônoma. Contudo, não identificamos nenhum elemento que potencialmente ilustre ações conjuntas no âmbito nacional do MNPEF, mas apenas alguns indicativos de ações conjuntas que influenciam exclusivamente o contexto local dos PR, caracterizando, assim, processos de microrregulação local. / In this work, we show investigations about the Mestrado Nacional Profissional em Ensino de Física (MNPEF) as a public policy for formation of Physics teachers. For the development of our research, the theoretical-methodological framework was constructed based on the sociology of public action and the Bakhtin’s Circle philosophy of language. Therefore, we created a general research scheme that consisted of the analysis of a complex chain of statements derived from the modes of regulation of MNPEF, notably, the control regulation and autonomous regulation. Thus, concentrated in the first 21 Regional Poles (PR) of the MNPEF, created in 2013, our objective was to study MNPEF's modes of regulation, describing and analyzing the control regulation - structures designed to coordinate and guide the actions of social actors - and the autonomous regulation, concerning the way in which these actors reinvent the orientations about the program. The corpus of our research was built, on the one hand, based on the control regulation and a chain of documents referring to the specific context of the MNPEF and to the broad context of the national post-graduation, on the other hand, based on the scope of autonomous regulation, by works of conclusion coming from the first classes and by interviews with teachers who work in different PR. Our research indicates that the MNPEF is a multiregulated public policy device, mainly based on the regulations of the Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior (CAPES) for the Professional Master's in Education (MPE) courses and by the administrative bodies appointed by the Sociedade Brasileira de Física (SBF), which coordinates the program. When we look at the MNPEF as a public action, we identify the coexistence of modes of regulation of control and autonomous. However, we do not identify any element that potentially illustrates joint actions at the national level of the MNPEF, but only some indicative of joint actions that exclusively influence the local context of PR, thus characterizing processes of local micro-regulation.

Den virtuella verklighetens magiska cirkel : En kvalitativ studie av ljud, bild, interaktion och immersion för applikationen Tilt Brush i VR-headsetet HTC ViveJörgensen, Tanja January 2018 (has links)
I denna studie som utgår från Huizingas begrepp ”den magiska cirkeln” undersöksapplikationen Tilt Brush för VR headsetet HTC Vive med avseende på dess bild ochljud samt hur detta tolkas och används under interaktionen med applikationens verktyg.Begreppet utgår ifrån att användaren kan låta sig uppslukas i ett spel så längeförväntningarna enligt spelets regler inte störs. Genom en fallstudie har applikationenstuderats med metoder som autoetnografi och multimodal analys utifrånsocialsemiotiska begrepp, samt öppna intervjuer med inslag av ”think-aloud”. Deliknande iakttagelser som framkommit med hjälp av olika metoder får anses styrkastudiens resultat. Resultaten i studien pekar på att det för interaktionens del är viktigt attvissa aspekter av ljudet, som har med positionering eller fysikens lagar att göra,stämmer överens med våra erfarenheter från verkligheten och att detta i sin tur stämmeröverens med det visuellt representerade. För bildens och ljudens meningserbjudanden iövrigt är användaren beredd att gå med på vilka oerhörda illusioner som helst så längebild och ljud kommuniceras i överensstämmelse och på ett trovärdigt sätt som lever upptill användarens förväntningar inom den magiska cirkeln, platsen för själva spelet.Förväntningarna behöver då inte ha med verkligheten att göra. Vad som uppfattas somhög modalitet styrs av vilken genre användaren förväntar sig att möta. Detta i sin turrelateras till användarens tidigare erfarenheter och sociala och kulturella bakgrund.

O processo de internacionalização do ensino superior : um estudo de caso da Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do SulMueller, Cristiana Verônica January 2013 (has links)
Esse estudo tem como objetivo a realização de um estudo de caso sobre a dimensão institucional da internacionalização na Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul. Buscando enfatizar a importância do tema da internacionalização no ensino superior, inicialmente apresentou-se a relação existente com o processo de globalização com vistas ao entendimento dos efeitos decorrentes destes processos na forma de organização interna das universidades. Com o objetivo da contextualização e definição teórica do estudo, apresentou-se uma síntese dos principais modelos teóricos de autores que têm tratado do processo de internacionalização no ensino superior com abordagens da dimensão institucional. Assim, o estudo procura enfatizar o entendimento de como este processo vem sendo desenvolvido na UFRGS, a partir das concepções de internacionalização adotadas, bem como, das características da atual estrutura das ações internacionais. Fez parte da pesquisa o estudo de cinco programas de pósgraduação considerados de excelência pela Universidade e que possuem reconhecida atuação internacional. A apresentação da síntese da atuação das gestões da Universidade relativa ao tema da internacionalização no período 1993 a 2011, da criação e atuação da Secretaria de Relações Internacionais e dos cinco programas de excelência, dos dados da mobilidade discente e docente e da cooperação internacional da UFRGS, foi viabilizada pelo uso das seguintes fontes de evidência: informação documental, registros em arquivo e entrevistas com representantes-chave da Universidade e dos programas de excelência. Relativo à estratégia analítica adotou-se a proposição do modelo teórico do círculo da internacionalização para a criação da cultura de integração a partir das nove etapas do processo, a saber: análise do contexto, consciência, comprometimento, planejamento, operacionalização, implementação, revisão, reforço e efeito de integração. Tendo por base tais fatos, concluiu-se o estudo com duas principais constatações. A primeira de que a concepção de internacionalização ainda é pouco clara na UFRGS e a segunda de que ainda não há um processo institucionalizado tendo por base a realidade dos programas avaliados e as características da estrutura da Universidade que indica a existência da fragmentação. / This study aims to carry out a case study on the institutional dimension of internationalization at the Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Sul (UFRGS). Seeking to emphasize the importance of the theme of internationalization in higher education, initially presented the relationship with the globalization process with a view to understanding the effects of these processes in the internal organization form of universities. The contextualization and theoretical definition of the study, present an overview of the main theoretical models of authors who have dealt with the process of internationalization in higher education approaches on the institutional dimension. Thus, the study seeks to emphasize the understanding of how this process is being developed at UFRGS, from the concepts of internationalization adopted, as well as the characteristics of the current structure of international actions. The study of five graduate programs considered of excellence by the university and those who have recognized international actions took part of this research. The presentation of the summary of the management performances of the university on the topic of internationalization in the period from 1993 to 2011, the creation and operation of the Secretary of International Relations and the five programs of excellence, student and professors mobility data and international cooperation of UFRGS, was made possible by the use of the following sources of evidence: documentary material, archival records and interviews with key representatives of the university and programs of excellence. On the analytical strategy adopted the proposition of the theoretical model of the internationalization of the circle to create a culture of integration from the nine stages, i.e.: context analysis, awareness, commitment, planning, operationalise, implementation, review, reinforcement and integration effect. Based on these facts, it is possible to conclude the study with two main findings. The first that the concept of internationalization is still unclear at UFRGS and second that there is not yet an institutionalized process based on the reality of the programs evaluated the characteristics and structure of the University that indicates the existence of fragmentation.
