Has as goal the extension of school time in the public schools of Goiás from 2006 to 2010. Using the literature and documentary, this study focuses on describing the trajectory of the implementation of the State School Full-Time (EETI) from 2006 until the year 2010, considering the actors involved, the characteristics of management, monitoring and financing of the proposal. The desk research was based on the literature documents that formed the Pilot School Full Time State of the State Secretariat of Education of Goiás (Seduc / GO), namely, sent letters, directives, operational guidelines and teaching, reports, plans action and an example of Political-Pedagogical Project of one of EETIs. Were also used as a basis for the search to educational legislation, national and state levels, with emphasis on elementary education; the legislative texts, research (theses and dissertations) and books. The EETIs in Goiás meet elementary school students over a period of ten hours daily. The financing of the proposal come from features Fundeb, a part of the appeal of the State Treasury is decentralized to the school and partly managed by the very Seduc / GO. The organization of school time is defined by the school unit, with the guidance of Seduc / GO offering students a permanent educational activities, such as computer labs, language and science and research activities, and activities: sports, cultural and social experience integrated into the core curriculum. Through analysis of reports Seduc / GO, it appears that the entire deployment process took place in a tumultuous, schools improvised the physical structure and material and human resources to initiate the operation full time. Considering the political moment, the immediacy found in the implementation of EETI can characterize this project as an electioneering action, subject of political debate in the elections. / Este estudo integra a linha de pesquisa Estado, Políticas e História da Educação do Programa de Pós-Graduação em Educação da Faculdade de Educação da Universidade Federal de Goiás. Possui como objeto a ampliação do tempo escolar na rede pública estadual de Goiás no período de 2006 a 2010. Utilizando da pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, este estudo preocupa-se em descrever e analisar a trajetória da implantação da Escola Estadual de Tempo Integral (EETI) no período de 2006 até o ano de 2010, considerando os atores envolvidos, as características de gestão, o acompanhamento e o financiamento da proposta. A pesquisa documental bibliográfica teve como base os documentos que compuseram o Projeto Piloto de Escola Estadual de Tempo Integral da Secretaria de Estado da Educação de Goiás (Seduc/GO), a saber: ofícios expedidos, portarias, diretrizes operacionais e pedagógicas, relatórios, planos de ação e um exemplo de Projeto Político-Pedagógico de uma das EETIs. Foram também utilizadas como embasamento para a pesquisa a legislação educacional, nacional e estadual, com ênfase na educação fundamental; os textos normativos, pesquisas (dissertações e teses) e livros publicados. As EETIs em Goiás atendem aos estudantes do ensino fundamental num período de dez horas diárias. O financiamento da proposta provêm de recursos do Fundeb, uma parte do recurso do Tesouro Estadual é descentralizado para a escola e outra parte gerido pela própria Seduc/GO. A organização do tempo escolar é definida pela unidade escolar, tendo como orientação da Seduc/GO o oferecimento aos alunos de atividades pedagógicas permanentes, tais como: laboratórios de informática, de línguas e de ciências e atividades de pesquisa; e de atividades: esportivas, culturais e de vivência social integradas ao currículo básico. Por meio de análise de relatórios da Seduc/GO, constata-se que todo o processo de implantação deu-se de forma tumultuada, as escolas improvisaram a estrutura física e os recursos materiais e humanos para iniciarem o funcionamento em tempo integral. Considerando o momento político, o imediatismo constatado na implementação da EETI, pode caracterizar este projeto como uma ação eleitoreira, tema dos debates políticos nas eleições.

Philosophiae Doctor - PhD / This study is about the author, a primary school teacher, who as a teacher-researcher wanted to improve the awareness of HIV/AIDS that has become a major challenge globally and has been on the increase over the past two-and-a-half decades, especially so, in sub-Saharan Africa. This is in spite of an "overflow" of HIV/AIDS information. The thesis documents two action research projects. Both of them are based on an emancipatory action research methodology. It has long been recognised that the HIV/AIDS pandemic requires more than medical attention and that the way in which teachers deal with HIV/AIDS education, especially at primary school level, becomes critical. A fundamental assumption of this study is that teachers play a critical role and are often the main adults, other than family members, with whom young people interact on a daily basis. Teachers can and must play a vital role in the development of valuable behavioural guidelines about reproductive health amongst the youth. This study views teachers, and more so primary school teachers, as important role players in the struggle to come to terms with HIV/AIDS. In reflecting about the HIV/AIDS pandemic, I realised that my classroom practice was characterised by a "culture of silence" when it came to discussing sex and matters concerning sexuality. The study sets out to enhance behavioural change in the way learners think about sex and sexuality and includes a continuous process of self reflection, self-awareness, planning and appropriate action. In Chapter One, I have tried to locate what I would regard as the problem in my teaching. I became increasingly convinced that my classroom practices might well be contributing to a lack of interweaving HIV/AIDS education into curriculum activity, while at the same time, promoting a "culture of silence" when it comes to issues of sex and sexuality. I arrived at this particular point as a result of reflectively looking at my own teaching career, as well as my own historical and schooling background which I felt has impacted on the way I teach. In this chapter I also give a brief historical background of the school where I teach and where I conducted my research. Towards the end of the chapter, I emphasise that teachers, including myself, need to redefine their role so as to empower students by creating the opportunity for their "voices" to be heard. I also explain concepts used in this written account such as "culture of silence" and "transformative intellectuals". In Chapter Two, I address the HIV and AIDS pandemic debate in more detail. I look at the impact of HIV/AIDS on education and how the implementation of an outcomes - based curriculum (C2005) takes up the HIV/AIDS challenge. In addition to this, I attempt to unpack the Western Cape Education Department's plans and policy concerning HIV/AIDS, after which I focus on breaking the HIV/AIDS "culture of silence". Before I conclude the chapter, I critically engage with the idea of the teacher as a researcher and critical change agent in an HIV/AIDS challenged society. In Chapter Three I provide a brief historical background of the development of action research. I point out how Lewin (1948) and Stenhouse's (1975) idea of action research was later taken up further and given a more critical perspective by writers such as Elliott (1985), Hopkins (1985), Walker (1985), Carr & Kemrnis (1986), Grundy (1987), Winter (1989), McKernan (2000), Meerkotter (2002) and McNiff & Whitehead (2006). I start with the defining (with due regard for the pitfalls of definitions) of action research and then focus on the nature and practices of an emancipatory action research approach. In this chapter I also elaborate on the reasons why I have decided on emancipatory action research as the main approach for this investigation. Chapter Four focuses on my first action research project where I set out to hear my students' "voice". And to contribute to the development of their voice to empower them with regard to sex and sexuality issues, a voice reflecting their increasing understanding of the seriousness of the HIV/AIDS pandemic and most of all a "critical voice" as purported by Freire (1972; 1980), Giroux (1988; 1991) and McLaren (1991; 2006). My second action research project "Checkmating HIV/AIDS", which is described in detail in Chapter Five, is a continuation of the first action research project where I tried to break down the "culture of silence" concerning HIV/AIDS and sex and sexuality in my classroom. On reflecting about the first project, I realized that awareness alone was not going to be enough to take up the HIV/AIDS prevention challenge. Infusing awareness with action was my next step, and sport, being a rallying point on our country's Transformation and Nation Building agenda became the ideal educational tool for this process. For successful prevention, individuals must be able to make decisions to protect themselves. In the second project I focus specifically on one code of sport, namely chess. In this second project, I set out to discuss the potential of using this code of sport to take up the HIV/AIDS challenge. Chapter Six is the concluding chapter. The question posed is: Can we ever win the battle against HIV/AIDS? Is it possible to change the way we think about sex and matters concerning sexuality? Thereafter the concept of change is interrogated and "clarified" in the context of my study. This is followed by looking at the two projects, and I specifically focus on whether these projects had been liberatory or transformative. I then address the issue concerning teachers as "transformative intellectuals" and teacher researchers and conclude by proposing emancipatory action research as a "vehicle" for change. Too often the response to the pandemic produces plans that list endless interventions. I strongly recommend that further research relating to the role of sport in education, with specific reference to HIV/AIDS, be prioritised. The argument being that sport, recreation and play are increasingly elements of development programmes around the world, contributing to the well-being, health and education of children and young people. If chess can contribute to checkmating HIV/AIDS and basketball to dunking HIV/AIDS then a big code such as soccer can definitely contribute to "dribbling" and "tackling" the HIV/AIDS pandemic. Especially, in view of the fact, that South Africa is hosting and showcasing the soccer world cup of 2010.

Psykisk ohälsa bland barn och unga är ett stort folkhälsoproblem i dagens samhälle, studiervisar att ungdomars psykiska ohälsa debuterar redan innan 14-årsåldern och forskning harvisat att hälsoundervisning i skolan har en positiv påverkan på elevernas välbefinnande. Barn och unga spenderar stor del av sin vardag i skolan vilket gör skolan till en bra arena för attfrämja hälsa och förebygga ohälsa. Med utgångspunkt i det folkhälsovetenskapliga arbetetsyftar studien till att undersöka hur skolor arbetar med psykisk hälsa i mellanstadiet ur ettlärarperspektiv. Studien hade till avsikt att besvara frågeställningen: Hur vill lärare arbeta medpsykisk hälsa i skolan? Vilka hinder uppfattar lärare att det finns för att tillämpa psykisk hälsai skolan? En kvalitativ metod med induktiv ansats och deskriptiv design tillämpades för att få insikt ilärarnas erfarenheter och upplevelser inom ämnesområdet. Vi samlade in empirin genom 10semistrukturerade intervjuer som genomfördes via Zoom med mellanstadielärare runt om ilandet. Informanterna valdes ut genom ett avsiktligt urval där mellanstadielärare medvetetvaldes ut för att de besitter förmågan att belysa ett specifikt fenomen. Inklusionskriterierna fördeltagandet var att arbeta som mellanstadielärare inom friskolor och kommunala skolor. Degenomförda intervjuerna transkriberades och analyserades med en kvalitativ innehållsanalys.Studien utgår från de teoretiska utgångspunkterna Salutogenes och Organizational citizenship behavior. Resultatet av studien visar att lärare saknar stöd, kompetens och resurser för att kunna arbetahälsofrämjande med elevers psykiska hälsa. Skolornas arbete med psykiskt arbete skiljer sigåt skolor emellan, likaså skiljer lärarnas arbetssätt åt i ämnet. Detta tycks bero på att skolornasaknar en gemensam kunskapssyn i arbetet samt att de aktuella riktlinjerna i läroplanen intebetonar hur man ska arbeta med elevers psykisk hälsa utan lämnas för fri tolkning. / Mental illness among children and youth is a major public health problem in today's society,studies show that young people's mental illness begins before the age of 14 and research hasshown that health education in school has a positive impact on students' well-being. Childrenand young people spend a large part of their daily life at school, which makes school a goodarena for promoting health and preventing ill-health. Based on public health science work, thestudy aims to investigate how schools work with mental health in middle school from ateacher's perspective. The study intended to answer the question: How do teachers want towork with mental health in school? What barriers do teachers perceive there to be inimplementing mental health in schools? A qualitative method with an inductive approach and descriptive design was applied to gaininsight into the teachers' experiences in the subject area. We collected the empirical evidencethrough 10 semi-structured interviews that were conducted via Zoom with middle schoolteachers around the country. The informants were selected through purposive sampling wheremiddle school teachers were deliberately selected because they possess the ability to shedlight on a specific phenomenon. The inclusion criteria for participation were to work as amiddle school teacher in independent and municipal schools. The conducted interviews weretranscribed and analyzed with a qualitative content analysis. The study is based on thetheoretical starting points Salutogenesis and Organizational citizenship behavior. The results of the study show that teachers lack support, competence, and resources to be ableto work health promotion with students' mental health. The schools' work with psychologicalwork differs between schools, as do the teachers' working methods in the subject. This seemsto be due to the fact that the schools lack a common view of knowledge in the work and thatthe current guidelines in the curriculum do not emphasize how to work with students' mentalhealth but are left to free interpretation.

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.

This study was made to gather data and information to aid the Burleson Independent School District in initiating an industrial arts general shop program in the Pauline G. Hughes Middle School. The data and information were obtained from the Texas Education Agency, the Burleson Independent School District records, the vocational director, the assistant superintendent, a questionnaire, and the Brodhead-Garrett 1976-1977 Catalog. The majority of the general shop programs in the north Texas area conduct classes five days a week for fifty-five minutes a day and accommodate twenty-four students per class. Furthermore, the majority of the general shop programs offer three units of instruction per year and teach one unit of instruction each quarter.
