No. of bitstreams: 1 tese_3971_.pdf: 1541004 bytes, checksum: cfe150b01f1498528604628248ec2636 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2011-08-26 / O presente estudo teve por objetivo investigar a relação entre o jogo simbólico coletivo e o desenvolvimento da linguagem em crianças de educação infantil em uma perspectiva piagetiana. Participaram desta pesquisa quatro crianças, entre 5 e 6 anos de idade, provenientes de uma Escola de Educação Infantil do Município de Vitória. A coleta de dados foi realizada em seis encontros com o grupo, com intervalo de, aproximadamente, quinze dias entre eles. Em cada situação as crianças foram convidadas a brincar de faz-de-conta em um espaço, que simula uma casa (oficina de jogo simbólico), durante 20 minutos. Os encontros foram filmados em áudio e vídeo e, posteriormente, transcritos e analisados com base nas classificações de Piaget (1990), para o jogo simbólico e para a linguagem (1973). A análise e interpretação dos dados receberam um tratamento qualitativo. A pesquisa procurou analisar o processo evolutivo de cada criança no jogo simbólico e na linguagem e a possível relação entre os dois. Os resultados obtidos nos permitiram verificar que houve uma estrita relação entre os aspectos evolutivos do jogo simbólico e da linguagem em todos os participantes, sendo que houve predominância de ações próprias da Fase II do jogo simbólico e de falas do Estágio II de conversação. A partir desses resultados, observamos que a oportunidade de se envolver no jogo simbólico coletivo, em um espaço que estimule a representação, pode desenvolver nas crianças a linguagem socializada. Assim sendo, este trabalho contribui para demonstrar a importância da preservação do espaço lúdico e simbólico nas escolas de educação infantil.

Partimos da idéia de que as representações que os professores constroem sobre o processo de ensino-aprendizagem, influenciam as suas representações sobre a informática na educação e, conseqüentemente, a forma como eles assumem sua prática pedagógica com auxílio da informática. Desse modo, o objetivo desta investigação é compreender como se articulam as relações entre tais representações sociais, em busca de uma melhor apreensão do processo de implementação da informática na realidade escolar. Baseado no referencial teórico da Teoria das Representações Sociais, elaborada por Serge Moscovici, em 1961, este estudo foi viabilizado por meio da aplicação de questionários de associação livre com indução das palavras mais importantes. O mesmo permitiu apreender as representações sobre o ensino, sobre a aprendizagem e sobre a informática na educação, em sua respectiva estrutura e em seu funcionamento, assim como as relações que se estabelecem entre essas. Dentre os resultados constantes desta pesquisa destaco a necessidade de formação de professores mediante uma postura reflexiva de atuação, fundamentada nas atuais concepções sobre o processo de ensino-aprendizagem e mediadas pelo uso da informática na Educação

Confusion, clarity, cohesion, disintegration: a study of curriculum decision-making in citizenship education.

Parkin, Glenda January 2002 (has links)
In the last decade, the Commonwealth Government has relied increasingly on policy-induced consortia to implement its education policy initiatives. The study focused on education policy pertaining to citizenship education, and specifically on the recommendations of the Civics Expert Group's 1994 report Whereas the people...Civics and Citizenship Education. The then Commonwealth Government called for policy-induced consortia to submit applications as a means to implement the report's recommendations. As a result, the Western Australian Consortium for Citizenship Education was formed. The Consortiums submission for a grant to assist teachers to prepare curriculum materials for citizenship education was successful. The study examined the decisions made by the Consortium members in relation to the curriculum materials project.The study was informed by an examination of literature pertaining to citizenship and citizenship education, the implementation of public policy, and group and curriculum decision-making. The review of the literature concerning the constructs of 'citizen' highlighted the contested nature of citizenship. In turn, this is reflected in the debates about the nature of citizenship education. As well, the literature review revealed many models of policy implementation and group curriculum decision-making do not adequately reflect the complexities and realities of group decision-making processes. The models often ignore the socio-political dynamics of the group, particularly in a policy-induced consortium, which exists for a specific and limited purpose, where members owe allegiance to their institutions rather than the consortium and where the consortium is accountable to a government department for the management of the project.A case study approach using qualitative methods was used. These methods and approaches are most likely to capture and interpret ++ / the humanness of group decision-making. Moreover, they take into account the importance of the values each member of the Consortium brought to the group and recognise that each member constructed his/her meaning as a result of social interaction with other Consortium members.The case study focused on a detailed examination of the work of the Western Australian Consortium for Citizenship Education and especially on the sub-group of the Project Management Committee over eighteen months. The notion of 'critical decisions' was used to analyse the Consortium's decision-making. Each critical decision had significant consequences for the ongoing work of the Consortium. The nature of the Consortium's decision-making highlighted the overwhelming importance of social dynamics over curriculum decision-making.The intentions of the study were to build towards a more complete understanding of the socio-political nature of group curriculum decision-making; to contribute to theorising about the humanness of group curriculum decision-making; and to provide an informed perspective about the significance of the Commonwealth Government's intervention in education through the mechanism of policy-induced consortia.The thesis makes a contribution to the socio-political dimension of group curriculum decision-making in federations. It illustrates that curriculum policy delivery is a socio-political process focussing on interpersonal relationships rather than a rational or deliberative process based on educational outcomes.

Self‐assessments of Need, Relevance and Motivation to Learn as Indicators of Participation in Continuing Medical Education

FOX, R. D., HARVILL, L. M. 01 January 1984 (has links)
This study examined the validity of using physicians’ self‐assessed needs, relevance and motivation to learn about clinical topics as a means for setting objectives and priorities for continuing medical education (CME) programmes. In an initial survey family doctors were asked to rate their need, relevance and motivation to learn about 120 different clinical topics. Eight months later, the same population was sent a second mail survey asking respondents to indicate if they had learned about a set of sixteen topics taken from the initial survey and, if so, in what kind of learning activities. Eight of the sixteen topics were highly rated and eight were low rated in the initial survey. In terms of actual participation of family doctors, self‐assessed motivation to learn exhibited a strong positive relationship with actual participation. Both self‐assessed need and relevance were negative to only moderately positive in their association with actual participation. This evidence contributed to the value of using self‐assessed motivation as an indicator of future participation of family doctors in CME and questioned the value of using self‐assessed need and relevance as indicators of future patterns of participation.

Developing Medical Student Competence in Lifelong Learning: The Contract Learning Approach

FOX, R. D., WEST, R. F. 01 January 1983 (has links)
How contract learning may be used in the introduction to clinical medicine is described, with the goal to develop and enhance self‐directed learning skills and attitudes of first‐ and second‐year medical students. Essential tasks associated with successful self‐directed learning are cited, and the contract method is described as a means for providing medical students with the opportunity to practise these tasks in the study of gerontology. The procedures followed in the implementation of the contract learning method are described, and its impacts on both need and motivation to continue learning about ageing and skills in directing independent learning projects are analysed and discussed. In addition, the implications of early preparation for doctor's lifelong learning are discussed.

Sociedade do espetáculo e formação humana: mercado, tecnologia e cultura / Society of the spectacle and human development: market, technology and culture

Made available in DSpace on 2014-07-29T15:13:42Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 Tese Weligton Rodrigues da Paz.pdf: 589159 bytes, checksum: e8bbe585953dbbc428b466c9fe254037 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2011-07-13 / This work interrogates the contemporary processes of training, educational or not, increasingly varied and diverse and that develop in a wide range of social levels, from traditional institutions like family and school practices by focusing on individual and collective consumption goods , or other technology. Shows that the current society is inherently a form of material life, centered on the production is the production of objects with values of exchange, goods, and inseparable from the alienation and reification. This society has been thoroughly studied and understood by Marx (1818-1883) and Lukacs as discussed below. It also demonstrates that in its most advanced society that leads to extreme forms of alienation and fetishization of social life studied, conceived by Guy Debord (1931-1994), and work to create the concept of society of the spectacle, in his quest to understand the current form of alienation. Here we emphasize the importance of the commodity technology as a mediation between the individual and social life, particularly as a means of communication and information. From this idea of society and its characteristics as the expansion of the image or the products and vehicles of cultural industry, reflects on the mechanisms of formation to develop this historical and social formation. Highlights the siege to formal education and commercial institutions, traditional socialization and the importance of children as consumers semiformal, marketing and economicização pedagogical practices and teaching institutions. / Este trabalho interroga os processos de formação contemporâneos, escolares ou não, cada vez mais múltiplos e variados e que se desenvolvem em ampla gama de instância sociais, desde as instituições tradicionais como a família e a escola até as práticas coletivas e individuais centradas no consumo de mercadorias, tecnológicas ou outras. Mostra que à sociedade atual é inerente uma forma de vida material, centrada na produção de objetos com valores de troca, mercadorias, e inseparável da alienação e da reificação. Essa sociedade foi rigorosamente estudada e compreendida por Marx (1818-1883) e Lukács como veremos abaixo. Demonstra ainda que em seus estágios mais avançados essa sociedade leva ao extremo as formas de alienação e fetichização da vida social estudadas, pensadas por Guy Debord (1931-1994), ao criar e trabalhar o conceito de sociedade do espetáculo, em sua busca de compreender a forma atual de alienação. Ressalta a importância da mercadoria tecnológica como mediação entre o indivíduo e a vida social, em especial como meio de comunicação e informação. A partir dessa ideia de sociedade e suas especificidades como a expansão da imagem ou dos produtos e veículos da indústria cultural, reflete sobre os mecanismos de formação que desenvolvem-se nessa formação histórico-social. Destaca o cerco mercantil à educação formal e às instituições, tradicionais de socialização assim como a importância semiformativa do consumo infantil, da comercialização e economicização das práticas pedagógicas e das instituições de ensino.

El programa universitario como herramienta de evaluación

Nadal Cristóbal, Andrés 21 December 2005 (has links)
Esta tesis doctoral postula que el programa de las asignaturas, es un indicador de cómo es la docencia universitaria directa del profesor e el aula, por su función preparatoria y reflexiva de la tarea docente. Se han recogido diferentes modelos de confección de programas docentes, confeccionando una guía de los elementos que debe contener un buen programa universitario. Esta guía ha sido evaluada y contrastada tanto por expertos, profesores y alumnos. También se ha realizado una evaluación del instrumento confeccionado utilizando procedimientos cuantitativos y cualitativos de análisis. Se ha llegado a la conclusión de que el programa si bien no es un elemento predictor de la buena docencia si que lo es de la mala docencia.
