Solomon Atkinson 1797-1865 : Cambridge critic and lawyers' lawyer

Harper, K. January 1986 (has links)
Atkinson's virtual self-preparation for Cambridge is described and discussed, noting the importance of respons-· ible patronage. His objective was university study, a Fellowship, and the Bar, leading to public life. Cambridge's social and academic scene is viewed in the light of Atkinson's 1825 account of his experience, attention being directed to its 'alternative society', and the major change in Mathematics associated with the Analytical Society, betweeen 1817 and 1821, in which year he was Senior Wrangler. Note is taken of criticism, also published in 1825, by Cowling, Senior Wrangler in 1824. Particular consideration is given to Atkinson's assessment of what an University ought to offer, and his claims as to Cambridge's failure; to his not getting a Fellowship, and consequent difficulties when reading for the Bar. His Letters to Huskisson, 1826, are interpreted as a vain bid for the attention of the shipping interest, whose patronage might further his entry to 'the arena of public life'. He expounded the likely effects of repeal of the Navigation Acts, particularly in the light of his recent visit to America. Called to the Bar in 1827, he devoted his life thereafter to the Law, as conveyancer and equity draftsman, but, especially, as author of legal books for practitioners. His earliest work, 1829, was intended to caution the Real Property Commission, set up under Benthamite influence. His last, 1853, surveyed and offered solutions to some problems of the Profession in mid-century, especially those deriving from the 1846 Act, reviving the County Courts, and of which, unlike most of the Bar, he had been a supporter. Here, He. drew again on what he had found in Canada and the United States during an extended visit in 1836.

Análise do REUNI: uma nova expressão da contra-reforma universitária brasileira / REUNI analysis: a new expression of brazilian university reform

Juliana Fiuza Cislaghi 15 September 2010 (has links)
Em abril de 2007 o governo instituiu o Programa de Apoio a Planos de Reestruturação e Expansão das Universidades Federais REUNI. O decreto caracteriza-se por um contrato de gestão que fixa rígidas metas de desempenho para recebimento de contrapartidas financeiras. Seu objetivo seria a criação de condições de ampliação de acesso e permanência no ensino superior. No entanto, o que o REUNI propõe, na prática é uma redução proporcional do número de docentes nas universidades federais bem como uma redução proporcional dos recursos de custeio, levando à redução da qualidade e da autonomia, conforme inscritas na Constituição brasileira. / In April 2007 the government established the Program of Support for the Restructuring and Expansion of Federal Universities - REUNI. The decree is characterized by a management contract that sets stringent performance targets for receiving financial compensation. Its goal would be to create conditions for expanding access and retention in higher education. However, what REUNI is actually proposing is a proportionate reduction in the number of faculty in public universities as well as a proportional reduction of resource expenditure, leading to reduced quality and autonomy, as listed in the Brazilian Constitution.

Successful practices in teacher recruitment, preparation and retention as perceived by the Texas A&M University System Regents' Initiative project directors

Holt, Michael Lee 30 October 2006 (has links)
The purpose of the study is to identify the perceived successful practices that led to improved teacher recruitment, preparation and retention efforts within the nine universities of The Texas A&M University System brought about by the Regents' Initiative for Excellence in Education. The data for this study, gathered through interviews, document reviews and observation, revealed that the Regents' Initiative was considered by project directors to be a challenging but rewarding educational reform initiative. The lessons learned through the experience reflect the general findings common to the research literature on school-university partnerships. Research findings of this study revealed that the successful implementation of the Regents' Initiative involved strategies to overcome challenges and develop processes for recruiting, improving teacher preparation and teacher retention. Selecting the right person as the teacher recruiter was paramount to the successful attainment of A&M System university teacher recruitment goals. Operationalizing teacher recruiting included developing recruiting targets, organizing data management, tracking student recruits in the teacher preparation pipeline and periodically reporting progress to stakeholders. Quality improvement of teacher preparation involved recruiting higher achieving high school and community college students, setting higher standards for teacher candidate performance and aligning course curriculum within the college of education and with community college partners to the state standards. Institutional leadership was required to promote and build meaningful partnerships combining efforts to recruit, prepare and retain quality teachers in the profession. A&M System institutions developed a communications campaign to build legislative, institutional and public awareness and support of the Initiative. Institutional involvement was broadened by providing opportunities for interaction between arts and sciences faculty and college of education faculty through collaborative research grants, presentation conferences and symposia. Finally, the successes were celebrated with all stakeholders, and rewards were provided to those who made significant contributions to the effort.

Its specific objectives are: reveal how the process of creating the program was, verify whether the PROUNI can be considered an instrument of democratization of higher education as its proponents claim, and know the opinion of the scholars from the PROUNI in the Social Services course about the program as well as the professional responsible for it in the Higher Education Institution locus of the research. The PROUNI was established by the Provisory Measure 213 in 2004 and it aims to create conditions for the access of higher education by offering full or partial scholarships in private Higher Education Institutions in exchange for tax exemption. The target audience are students with low income who have completed a high school degree in any public school or private institutions provided with a full scholarship, people with disabilities and teachers of public schools who are getting their degree in basic education, in this case, regardless of their income. The program is included in the list of affirmative action policies for designating a percentage of quotas specifically to people with disabilities and to self-declared as black or indigenous. In order to reach the proposed goal, a bibliographic research was conducted (official documents, provisory measure, project-law) proceeding a technique of document analysis about the process of creation of the PROUNI. A field research was also conducted in a private higher education institution in Manaus, where the questionnaire was applied to the scholars of the third and fourth years of the Social Services course, and an interview was conducted with the professional responsible for the program at the institution. The study showed us that the Universidade para Todos Program - PROUNI, created in the context of the Lula government university reform, meets the recommendations of international organizations such as the World Bank (WB) and the World Trade Organization (WTO) since it contributes to the process of privatization and commercialization of higher education, diversification of funding source, blurring of boundaries between public and private, and legitimates the process of diversification of teaching that is reduced only in vocational training, consolidating the concept of education as a service not unique to the state. The field research proves that the program meets a legitimate demand of people excluded from access to public higher education. The opinion of 13 of the 14 scholars participating in the survey is that PROUNI democratizes access to higher education, and only one (1) scholar is contrary to this view. This one qualifies the program as a selective program and a government strategy to pacify the struggle over public education. Sharing this same opinion, the professional responsible for the program at the Institution where the survey was conducted, emphasizes that true democratization of higher education will occur with the access of the poor, or minority to public and free university. It is inferred that although the program has helped many people access higher education level, which means that one has his opinion that the program has democratized higher education, it cannot fail to consider that when it forwards a portion of the population to private higher education therefore it contributes to decrease the popular pressure for one of the historic flags that had marked the social movements and today is no longer seen, which is fighting for a qualified and public university, this is arguably the biggest success of this program. / O estudo aborda o ensino superior no Brasil, priorizando a análise do Programa Universidade para Todos (Prouni) bem como a visão dos discentes bolsistas do curso de serviço social acerca do referido programa e do profissional responsável por ele em uma Instituição de Ensino Superior – (IES) na cidade de Manaus. Tem como objetivos específicos: desvelar como ocorreu o processo de criação do programa, verificar se o Prouni pode ser considerado um instrumento de democratização do ensino superior conforme defende seus propositores e conhecer a visão dos discentes bolsistas do Prouni do curso de serviço social acerca do referido programa bem como do profissional responsável por ele na Instituição de Ensino Superior locus da pesquisa. O Prouni, que foi criado por meio da Medida Provisória nᵒ 213 em 2004, visa criar condições de acesso ao ensino superior por meio de oferta de bolsas de estudo integral e parcial em Instituições de Ensino Superior do setor privado em troca de isenção de impostos. O público alvo são os estudantes oriundos de baixa renda que tenham cursado o ensino médio completo em escola da rede pública ou em instituições privadas na condição de bolsista integral, pessoa com deficiência e professores da rede pública de ensino destinado à formação do magistério da educação básica, nesse caso, independente de renda. O programa se insere no rol das políticas de ações afirmativas por destinar um percentual de cotas especificamente às pessoas com deficiência e aos autodeclarados negros e indígenas. Para o alcance do objetivo proposto realizou-se pesquisa bibliográfica e documental (documentos oficiais decretos, medida provisória, projeto- lei) procedendo posteriormente da técnica de análise documental sobre o processo de criação do Prouni. Realizou-se também pesquisa de campo em uma IES Particular na cidade de Manaus onde foi aplicado questionário juntos aos bolsistas do curso de serviço social 6ᵒ e 7ᵒ períodos e realizada entrevista com a profissional responsável pelo programa na IES. O estudo realizado nos mostrou que o Programa Universidade para Todos- Prouni, criado no contexto da Reforma Universitária do governo Lula, atende as recomendações dos organismos internacionais como o Banco Mundial- (BM) e Organização Mundial do Comércio (OMC), uma vez que contribui para o processo de privatização e mercantilização do ensino superior, diversificação da fonte de financiamento, diluição das fronteiras entre público e privado, e legítima o processo de diversificação de ensino que se reduz somente na formação profissional, consolidando a concepção da educação como um serviço não exclusivo do estado. A pesquisa de campo realizada comprova que o programa atende uma demanda legítima de pessoas excluídas do acesso ao ensino superior público. A opinião de 13 dos 14 bolsistas que participaram da pesquisa é a de que o Prouni democratiza o acesso ao ensino superior, sendo apenas 1(uma) bolsista contrária a essa visão, pois o qualifica como um programa seletivo e uma estratégia do governo para pacificar a luta em torno da educação pública. Compartilhando dessa mesma opinião, a profissional responsável pelo programa na IES onde a pesquisa foi realizada enfatiza que a verdadeira democratização do ensino superior ocorrerá com o acesso dos pobres, ou seja, das minorias a universidade pública e gratuita. Infere-se, que apesar do programa ter contribuído para o acesso de muitas pessoas ao nível superior de ensino, não se pode deixar de considerar que quando ele encaminha parcela da população para o ensino superior privado acaba contribuindo para diminuir a pressão popular por uma das bandeiras históricas que marcou os movimentos sociais e que hoje não se vê mais, que é a luta por uma universidade pública e de qualidade, sendo esse sem dúvida o maior êxito deste programa.

Movimento estudantil e ensino superior no Brasil: a reforma universitária no centro da luta política estudantil nos anos 60 / Student movement and higher education in Brazil: the University reform in the student center of political struggle in the 60s

Santana, Flavia de Angelis 18 March 2015 (has links)
O movimento estudantil teve um papel de destaque no debate e na formulação de modelos para o ensino superior brasileiro ao longo da década de 1960. Nesse sentido, esta pesquisa pretende demonstrar que a reforma universitária não só nasceu nos meios estudantis como foi a luta prioritária dos estudantes durante os anos 60; luta esta que se deu a partir da articulação de suas ações políticas e educacionais, conforme orientação da União Nacional dos Estudantes. Com este intuito, esta tese se dividiu em quatro capítulos. O primeiro traz o período da criação da UNE, em 1937, à retomada da entidade por estudantes progressistas, em 1956, e procura mostrar que, neste período, o movimento estudantil ainda não tinha a reforma universitária como luta prioritária. O segundo capítulo mostra como e quando a reforma universitária se tornou a principal bandeira reivindicatória dos estudantes, como se deu a articulação de suas lutas políticas e educacionais em defesa da reformulação do ensino superior e como evoluíram as concepções estudantis a respeito desta reformulação. O terceiro e o quarto capítulos trazem o duplo desafio dos estudantes a partir de 1964, de lutar contra a repressão e as tentativas de controle da ditadura ao mesmo tempo em que davam continuidade à sua luta prioritária pela reforma universitária. / The student movement had a prominent role in the discussion and formulation of models for the Brazilian higher education throughout the 1960s this sense, this research aims to demonstrate that the university reform not only born in the student media as was the struggle of priority students during the 60s; this fight that took place from the articulation of its educational and policies actions, as recommended by the National Union of Students. To this end, this thesis is divided into four chapters. The first brings the period of creation of UNE in 1937, the resumption of authority by progressive students in 1956, and seeks to show that in this period, the student movement had not yet university reform as a priority fight. The second chapter shows how and when the university reform became the main vindicatory flag of students, how was the articulation of policies and educational struggles for overhaul of higher education have evolved and how the student conceptions about this redesign. The third and fourth chapters present the dual challenge of students from 1964 to fight against repression and attempts to control the dictatorship while they gave continuity to its priority struggle for university reform.

Campus no Nordeste: Reforma Universitária de 1968 / Northeast Campus: 1968 University Reform

Macêdo, Magda Maria de Souza Campêlo 27 September 2012 (has links)
Análise das realizações urbano-arquitetônicas das universidades federais do Ceará (UFC), da Paraíba (UFPB), do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), de Alagoas (UFAL), Maranhão (UFMA), de Sergipe (UFS) e do Piauí (UFPI), executadas a partir da Reforma Universitária de 1968, com o objetivo de demonstrar que esses espaços universitários, em sua reformulação ou constituição física, obedecendo ao projeto reformista, adotaram o padrão de campus norte-americano e produziram no Nordeste configurações urbanísticas e arquitetônicas com características que evidenciam respostas submetidas ao contexto local. A primeira parte aborda a implantação da Reforma Universitária e suas características. Destaca o modelo do campus concebido para responder aos intentos de eficiência e racionalidade da organização universitária e as orientações do Manual, de autoria do consultor norte-americano Rudolph Atcon (1970), que foi utilizado como documento base para o seu planejamento e execução. A segunda parte aborda a criação das sete universidades. A partir de uma matriz de análise formulada com base nas recomendações do Manual de Atcon, descrevem-se as características e se analisa cada campus em relação ao tecido urbano existente, as concepções urbanística e arquitetônica, as características construtivas e tipologias produzidas, evidenciando-se aspectos da racionalização (padronização dos elementos construtivos), funcionalidade (distribuição dos ambientes), modulação (estrutural e/ou módulo-base) e flexibilidade (remanejamento e expansão da edificação). Questões como o isolamento ou a integração dos campi na estrutura urbana, o zoneamento como instrumento de organização funcional e, ao mesmo tempo, indutor de segregação, as limitações dos procedimentos e sistemas construtivos frente aos conceitos de racionalização da construção são examinados mais de 40 anos após a implantação da Reforma / Analysis of the urban architectural achievements of the federal universities of Ceara (UFC), Paraiba (URPB), Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), Alagoas (UFAL), Maranhão (UFMA), Sergipe (UFS), and Piaui (UFPI) executed after the University Reform of 1968, designed to demonstrate that such university spaces, in their physical reformulation or constitution, according to the reformist project, adopted the standard of North American campus and produced urban and architectural configurations in the Northeast, with features highlighting responses submitted to the local context. The first part addresses the implementation of the University Reform and its features. It focuses on the campus model designed to meet the aims of efficiency and rationality of the university organization and the guidelines of the Manual by North American consultant Rudolph Atcon (1970), which was used as the basic document for its planning and execution. The second part addresses the creation of the seven universities. Based on an analysis matrix formulated from the recommendations of the Atcon Manual, the features are described and each campus is analyzed in accordance with the existing urban fabric, the urban and architectural conceptions, the constructive characteristic and the produced typologies, highlighting the rationalization aspects (standardization of the constructive elements), functionality (distribution of environments), modulation (structural or basis module) and flexibility (building relocation and expansion). Issues relating to the isolation or integration of the campuses in the urban structure, to the zoning as instrument of functional organization and as a segregation inductor, and to the limitation of procedures and constructive systems in the building rationalization concepts are examined forty years after the implementation of the Reform in 1968
