Ondersoek na die leefwêreld van die leergestremde adolessent met die oog op riglyne vir hulpverlening

Le Roux, Anna Christina 05 1900 (has links)
Text in Afrikaans / Die doel van die ondersoek was om insig in die leefwereld van die leergestremde adolessent te bekom, ten einde probleemareas wat doeltreffende aanpassing in die leefwereld verhinder, bloot te le. In die probleemontleding het die volgende aspekte na vore getree: Daar is 'n groeiende bewuswording onder navorsers dat die sosiaalemosionele probleme wat die leergestremde adolessent ervaar, duideliker aangespreek moet word. Die noodsaaklikheid om die leergestremde adolessent vir volwassenheid voor te berei, word toenemend besef. In die literatuurstudie is die tydperk van adolessensie, leergestremdheid as fenomeen, en die leefwereld van die leergestremde adolessent onderskeidelik bespreek. Enkele gevolgtrekkinge word aangestip: Adolessensie word gekenmerk deur fisiese, kognitiewe, affektiewe, sosiale en morele ontwikkeling. Hierdie veranderinge hou implikasies in vir die adolessent se uitvoer van ontwikkelingstake, die ontplooiing van die selfkonsep en die groei na onafhanklikheid. Die fenomeen leergestremdheid openbaar 'n komplekse aard wat 'n persoon in sy totaliteit raak. Die manifestasies van leergestremdheid betrek die akademiese vordering sowel as die sosiaal-emosionele ontwikkeling van die individu. Die leergestremde adolessent se aanpassing in sy leefwereld word nadelig beinvloed deur sosiale vaardigheidstekorte, interpersoonlike verhoudingsprobleme, 'n gebrekkige selfkonsep, emosionele probleme, die gebruik van verdedigingsmeganismes en 'n verminderde strewe na onafhanklikheid. In die empiriese ondersoek is inligting oor die leergestremde adolessent se interpersoonlike verhoudinge, selfkonsep en emosionaliteit bekom. In die interpretasie van die data is veranderlikes waar die leergestremde ado l essente swakker aanpassing as die normal e populasie getoon het, eerstens geidentifiseer. Verskille wat by die leergestremde adolessente ten opsigte van geslag en ouderdomsgroep voorgekom het, is vervolgens uitgelig. Ten slotte is 'n faktorontleding uitgevoer ten einde 'n gemeenskaplikheid tussen die onderskeie veranderlikes te bepaal. Op grond van die bevindinge uit die literatuur en die empiriese studie, is riglyne vir hulpverlening geformuleer. Die navorsingsbevindinge is veral van belang vir onderwysers, ouers en ander opvoeders wat met die leergestremde adolessent gemoeid is. / The purpose of the study was to gain insight into the life-world of the learning disabled adolescent in order to reveal problems which prevent effective adjustment in the life-world. In the analysis of the problem the following aspects were prominent: It is recognised that the social-emotional problems experienced by the learning disabled adolescent should be addressed in greater depth. The need to prepare the learning disabled adolescent for adulthood is realised. In the literature study the period of adolescence, learning disabilities as a phenomenon, and the life-world of the learning disabled adolescent were discussed. The following conclusions can be mentioned: Adolescence is characterised by physical, cognitive, emotional, social and moral development. These changes have implications for the adolescent's accomplishment of developmental tasks, the development of the self-concept and the grow towards independence. Learning disabilities as a phenomenon reveals a complex nature that affects the total person. The manifestations of learning disabilities involve the academic progress and the social-emotional development of the individual. The adjustment of the learning disabled adolescent in his lifeworld is adversely affected by deficits in social skills, problematic interpersonal relationships, an inadequate self-concept, emotional problems, the use of defence mechanisms and an insufficient strive towards independence. In the empirical investigation information was obtained about the learning disabled adolescent's interpersonal relationships, self-concept and emotionality. In the interpretation of the data variables were identified where the learning disabled adolescents showed poorer adjustment than the normal population. Differences between learning disabled adolescents with regard to age and sex were highlighted next. Finally, a factor analysis was carried out to determine whether a communality exists among the respective variables. On the basis of the findings of the literature and the empirical study, guidelines for the rendering of aid were formulated. The research findings are especially important to teachers, parents and other educators involved with the learning disabled adolescent. / Psychology of Education / D. Ed. (Sielkundige Opvoedkunde)

INTERVENÇÕES CURRICULARES NA PERSPECTIVA DA ABORDAGEM TEMÁTICA: AVANÇOS ALCANÇADOS POR PROFESSORES DE UMA ESCOLA PÚBLICA ESTADUAL DO RS / CURRICULUM INTERVENTION IN PERSPECTIVE OF THE THEMATIC APPROACH: ADVANCES MADE BY TEACHERS OF A PUBLIC STATE SCHOOL OF RS

Giacomini, Alexandre 27 February 2014 (has links)
Fundação de Amparo a Pesquisa no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul / This research, predominantly qualitative and ethnographic in school life, has as its theme the curriculum and teacher training in teaching. This research is relevant for the importance and need for new curricular settings, based on the critical perspective and social context, have to trigger a process of profound transformation, shaking the linear style and curricular current thinking and for that a continuous and permanent training of teachers is required. The problem of investigation of this research is: What would be the possible progress made by the teachers of a public high school in the city of Restinga Sêca/RS when implementing curricular interventions from the perspective of thematic approach in regular and adult education groups of high school? Based on this question, the following objectives were outlined: to contribute through a formative and collective process with the teachers of Érico Veríssimo School for building curricular interventions guided by the thematic approach; to check with the teachers of this school if they adopt and how they adopt in their daily practice curricular interventions guided by the thematic approach; to analyze the opinions and perceptions of teachers at this school about the progress made when implementing curricular interventions guided by the thematic approach. The research was implemented in a public high school in the city of Restinga Sêca/RS during the year of 2012 and the sample consisted of teachers from the regular high school and adult education (EJA). The theoretical referential that guides the research is grounded in the assumptions of the educator Paulo Freire and in ideals of the educational implications of the movement Science-Technology-Society (STS). The instruments used for data collection were: questionnaire, participant observation (through notes and logbooks/field), document analysis and semistructured interview. Regarding the methodology of data analysis, it was used the Textual Discourse Analysis. The results were presented in the form of categories of advances achieved by teachers in implementing the thematic approach in the daily routine of that school entitled as: the importance of the training course, the theme worked from the reality, from the student(s)' context, the teachers' engagement in collective and interdisciplinary work, the change in concept of curriculum and the dialogue between teacher-student and student-student. By way of conclusion, it is important to emphasize that all these categories contribute to the change of the new style of curriculum thinking, since they are in agreement with the profound process of curricular reconfigurations buoyed in critical perspective and social context. It also highlights a new school space/time provided to the research by the new proposed restructuring of the polytechnic high school state system of Rio Grande do Sul, as well as their convergences and divergences in relation to the Reorientation Curriculum Movement in the city of São Paulo. / A presente pesquisa, de caráter predominantemente qualitativo e do tipo etnográfico no cotidiano escolar, tem como tema o currículo e a formação de professores no âmbito do ensino. Essa pesquisa torna-se relevante pela importância e necessidade que novas configurações curriculares, baseadas na perspectiva crítica e no contexto social, têm de deflagrar um processo de transformações profundas, abalando o estilo de pensamento curricular linear vigente e, para tal, é necessária uma formação contínua e permanente dos professores. O problema de investigação dessa pesquisa é: Quais seriam os possíveis avanços alcançados por professores de uma escola pública de ensino médio do município de Restinga Sêca/RS quando implementam intervenções curriculares na perspectiva da abordagem temática em turmas do ensino médio regular e EJA? A partir dessa questão, delinearam-se os objetivos da mesma: contribuir através de um processo formativo e coletivo com os professores da EEEM Érico Veríssimo para a construção de intervenções curriculares pautadas pela abordagem temática; verificar com os professores desta escola se adotam e como adotam, na sua prática cotidiana, intervenções curriculares pautadas pela abordagem temática; analisar as opiniões e percepções dos professores desta escola a respeito dos avanços alcançados quando se implementam intervenções curriculares pautadas pela abordagem temática. A pesquisa foi implementada em uma escola pública de ensino médio do município de Restinga Sêca/RS durante o ano de 2012 e a amostra foi constituída por professores do ensino médio regular e da EJA. O referencial teórico que baliza a pesquisa está alicerçado nos pressupostos do educador Paulo Freire e em ideais das repercussões educacionais do movimento Ciência-Tecnologia-Sociedade (CTS). Os instrumentos utilizados para a coleta dos dados foram: o questionário, a observação participante (através de registros e diários de bordo/campo), a análise documental e a entrevista semiestruturada. Quanto à metodologia de análise de dados, utilizou-se a Análise Textual Discursiva. Os resultados foram apresentados sob forma de categorias de avanços, alcançadas pelos professores na implementação da abordagem temática no cotidiano escolar da referida escola, intituladas de: a importância do curso de formação; o tema trabalhado a partir da realidade, do contexto do(s) aluno(s); o engajamento dos professores no trabalho coletivo e interdisciplinar; a mudança na concepção de currículo, e; o diálogo entre professor-aluno e aluno-aluno. À guisa de conclusões, é importante frisar que todas essas categorias contribuem para a mudança do novo estilo de pensamento curricular, uma vez que estão em comum acordo com o profundo processo de reconfigurações curriculares balizadas na perspectiva crítica e no contexto social. Também se destaca um novo espaço/tempo escolar proporcionado à pesquisa pela nova proposta de reestruturação do ensino médio politécnico da rede estadual gaúcha, bem como suas convergências e divergências em relação ao Movimento de Reorientação Curricular no município de São Paulo.
