Evaluation of Harsh Reality: a sexual health resource for Winnipeg street-involved youthJalloh, Chelsea 08 April 2011 (has links)
Harsh Reality is a print resource aimed toward the population of street-involved youth. Created by a working group of street-involved youth in partnership with a research nurse, Harsh Reality is a unique hybrid of factual information, and art and written experienced submitted by street-involved youth themselves. Harsh Reality contains information about a variety of topics, notably sexually transmitted infections and HIV/AIDS. A case study method was used to evaluate aspects of both project process and outcomes. The case study was guided by three areas of study: street-involved youth's perceptions of the resource, retention of specific knowledge outcomes from the resource, and method of resource distribution. The primary sources of data were street-involved youth themselves. Findings of this study include a description of the target audience's perception of the resource, an analysis of specific knowledge uptake, an assessment of various methods of resource distribution, and possible suggestions for future resources.

Educational Resources +OER/ are learning objects available through copyright licenses
for any user to use freely and are useful for learning to students from distance and
classroom teaching. Generally, OER are almost always found in formats that do not
allow the user to use only any portions of it. However, to provide the component parts of
the OER is extremely important to facilitate their reuse. Taking as an example a
publication of the article type, this would be made available by separating its sections,
paragraphs, figures and tables. In this context, this work describes the development of
an ontology for OER domain, which allows not only the representation of the OER as a
whole, but also the representation of pieces of content resources. Ontology can be used
to facilitate the understanding of the use of OER by users, which aims at better
organizing common knowledge of specific areas. The domain ontology OER described
herein, named ONTOER4, is based on metadata and content description, which
facilitates understanding how to obtain a lower level of granularity, one of fragmentation
characteristics of OER. To guide the ontology development process, a method called
Methontology was adopted.

Researching and developing Swedkid : A Swedish case study at the intersection of the web, racism and educationHällgren, Camilla January 2006 (has links)
This thesis seeks to provide an insight into three phenomena: the condition of racism in Sweden, the complexity of identity, and the use of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) in classroom settings. It also offers an analysis of how such phenomena combined in the development of a specific educational resource, the Swedkid project (2001-3) which aimed to develop an anti-racist website (www.swedkid.nu) for students and teachers in Swedish schools. A case study approach was used for the analysis in the thesis, in which the Swedkid project was viewed as an instance of web-based, anti-racist educational resource development. This instance (or case) provided a prism of opportunity for learning about ‘race’, ethnicity and the role of ICT in the classroom. The case study embraces a number of sub-studies (Papers I-V and Appendix 1) which explore independently and in combination, how the website was developed and received, the Swedish national context, intercultural and anti-racist work in education, racist experiences of young people, and ICT as part of anti-racist work in the classroom. Three sets of findings (or themes) emerged from the study: namely, the existence of racism in Sweden, that young people’s conception of identity is complex and that the Swedkid website constitutes a significant anti-racist intervention. The overall aims of the research were to: - utilise the Swedkid project as a learning opportunity - explore the Swedish context for the project - investigate and develop an understanding of racism and ethnicity in Sweden generally and in education in particular - investigate experiences of racism among young people, and - explore how ICT can support anti-racist work in classroom settings Three research questions were also posed in the research: - How can ‘race’, ethnicity and experiences of racism be understood in Sweden generally, in education and among young people? - How can ICT support anti-racist work in classroom settings? - How useful were the approaches taken and the methods used in the project? A variety of methods of data gathering were used which include systematic literature searches, interviews, questionnaires, classroom observations plus a project logbook. Three theoretical clusters were particularly helpful in the analysis; relating to globalisation, racism and new technology (e.g. Castells, Jansson, Pred, Essed, Ladson-Billings, Delgado & Stefancic, Aviram & Tami). The research suggests an uneven picture in Sweden generally, and among Swedish young people in particular. While there have been some conscious and planned strategies to eliminate racism and discrimination, and high ambitions and good intentions from policy-makers and teachers in terms of recognising inequalities of schooling and counteracting racism, there is also a continuing picture of hostility, difficulty, denial and insecurity within education and more generally. The study also illuminates the complexity of identity and knowledge transfer, between locally-situated individuals and the different levels of global, European, national and local. It is suggested that the formation of identity is a process which involves viewing someone as ‘the other’ and can be transferred into a racist discourse and as such, used as a basis for legitimizing exclusion. However, responses to the Swedkid website suggest that engagement with other, wider identities (in this case, the characters on the website) can provide the possibility of intervention in stereotypical perceptions and expansion of notions of identity. It is also suggested that the Swedkid website can be used successfully in supporting anti-racist work in classroom settings, although dependent on the skills and commitment of the teacher. The advantages of using ICT for Swedkid lie in the possibility of visualisation and simulation, hence, it provides virtual experience of complex phenomena. The website can thus work as a springboard into informed rather than common-sense or everyday discourses of racism/anti-racism, with virtuality enhancing the classroom work of the teacher. Overall, studies presented in this thesis illustrate how a combination of ICT and anti-racism can offer opportunities for challenging commonsense views of racism and ethnicity, provide counter-stories as evidence that racism exists, and thus offer alternative perceptions and viewpoints on this topic in education and elsewhere. / Errata på titeln på boken där delarb. II utgör ett kapitel enligt ovanstående.

Steps of Theatrical Design: A Resource for Activating Educators to Teach Design in High SchoolsCaroccio, Chandler 01 January 2024 (has links) (PDF)
As a designer and educator, I am continuously gathering more resources for personal knowledge and to share with my students. Yet there is currently a lack of literature when it comes to design pedagogy for all design areas, specifically for high school aged students. How can we teach theatrical design in a tactful and meaningful way to high school students throughout the United States? Steps of Theatrical Design: A Resource for Activating Educators to Teach Design in High Schools, is for educators to learn about the process of design and spread that knowledge to their students. This thesis will act as an academic resource to guide educators towards the best methods of teaching theatrical design.
I argue design should be a much more critical piece of the curriculum than it is currently being presented in most high schools around the country. Through design, students gain many valuable skills such as: critical thinking, creative expression, emotional intelligence, collaboration, and troubleshooting. I have found the best way to teach design is to practice design. This thesis is broken up into chapters that mirror the steps of the design process. Chapter One (Step One) will cover script analysis and critical thinking, Chapter Two (Step Two) will explore different types of conceptual research, Chapter Three (Step Three) asks readers to apply various influential "isms" from history of 20th Century Design, Chapter Four (Step Four) defines style and aesthetic for design and Chapter Five (Step Five) will cover designer deliverables and design meetings. As a bonus for educators, the Appendix provides assignments that can be paired with each chapter to activate the theories presented.

Recursos Educacionais Abertos (REAs) na perspectiva da Ciência da Informação: um estudo dos aspectos relacionados à produção e ao uso / -Evangelista, Carolina Cardoso Dutra 29 May 2018 (has links)
No atual contexto, em que se faz amplo uso das Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação (TICs) em processos de ensino-aprendizagem, este trabalho teve como ponto de partida a necessidade de se investigar os desafios, de ordem técnica e informacional, presentes no desenvolvimento e uso de Recursos Educacionais Abertos (REAs). Tendo os usuários (aprendizes) como protagonistas em tais processos e considerando suas necessidades informacionais, buscou-se refletir sobre os REAs na perspectiva da Ciência da Informação. A pesquisa, de abordagem qualitativa e natureza exploratória, foi desenvolvida com base em análise da literatura e estudo de caso em plataformas abertas de REAs, cujo acesso é público e de iniciativa do Ministério da Educação (MEC), configurando-se política pública. Dentre os resultados, verificou-se que, como fonte de informação, os REAs têm o potencial de viabilizar a apropriação da informação pelos seus usuários, o que ocorre a partir de uma interface digital. Constatou-se que, para fomentar tal apropriação, a interface, disponibilizada e adaptada aos diversos contextos de uso, deve funcionar como um espaço de mediação, o qual é oferecido aos usuários para acesso e uso dos REAs. Dessa forma, concluiu-se que, dentre os desafios presentes na produção e no uso de REAs, destaca-se a devida compreensão de variáveis como: linguagens, fluxos de informação, instituições, técnicas, contextos de produção e uso, e os usuários de tais recursos, incluindo compreensão de aspectos culturais, uma vez que os usuários (aprendizes) são os protagonistas de todo o processo de ensino-aprendizagem. / In the current context, in which the Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) are widely used in teaching-learning processes, this work had as its starting point the need to investigate the technical and informational challenges present in the development and use of Open Educational Resources (OERs). Considering users (students) as protagonists in such processes and their informational needs, we sought to reflect on the OERs in the perspective of Information Science. The research, with a qualitative and exploratory approaches, was developed based on analysis of the literature and a case study on open platforms of OERs, whose access is public and on the initiative of the Brazilian Ministério da Educação (MEC, in English, Ministry of Education), setting up public policy. Among the results, it was verified that, as a source of information, OERs have the potential to enable the appropriation of information by its users, which occurs from a digital interface. It was found that, to promote such appropriation, the interface, available and adapted to the different contexts of use, should function as a space of mediation, which is offered to users to access and use of OERs. In this way, it was concluded that, among the challenges presents in the production and use of OERs, we must highlight the proper understanding of variables such as: languages, information flows, institutions, techniques, production and use contexts, and users of such resources, including understanding cultural aspects, since the users (students) are the protagonists of the entire teaching-learning process.

Desenvolvimento de tecnologia educacional sobre febre maculosa para a educação em saúde / Development of educational technology on Macular Fever for health educationBragagnollo, Gabriela Rodrigues 28 June 2018 (has links)
O atual projeto propôs elaborar e validar uma Tecnologia Educacional sobre Febre Maculosa, com o intuito de oferecer um método inovador de ensino para promover/facilitar a aprendizagem sobre Febre Maculosa. Trata-se de um estudo metodológico, que percorreu as seguintes etapas: análise e diagnóstico; planejamento instrucional, desenho didático, revisão e validação e produção da tecnologia. A análise e diagnóstico foi realizada a partir das experiências vivenciadas em atividades de extensão em educação e saúde para Febre Maculosa no Campus-USP de Ribeirão Preto (2014- 2015). No planejamento instrucional definiu-se que a Tecnologia Educacional sobre Febre Maculosa, seria apresentada em forma de Laboratório Interativo, com estações de aprendizagem. Para a produção do Laboratório contamos com a colaboração de uma equipe multidisciplinar que envolveu pesquisadores enfermeiros, eletricista, marceneiro, artista plástico, alfaiate e designer. O processo de revisão e validação foi dividido em dois momentos: validação de aparência e conteúdo e validação semântica. A validação de aparência e conteúdo foi realizado por 9 (nove) juízes, com experiência na área de biologia e educação; já a validação semântica foi realizada por 8 (oito) alunos do curso de enfermagem e pedagogia. Os resultados da validação de aparência e conteúdo mostraram um IVC superior a 0,8 para a grande maioria das variáveis. Na validação semântica, o Laboratório também teve boa aceitação e compreensão pelos participantes, assim se manteve a mesma organização e conteúdo. Considera-se que a trajetória percorrida para a elaboração do Laboratório Interativo sobre Febre Maculosa confere sustentação acadêmica e científica ao produto construído e ainda contribui para seu potencial pedagógico enquanto um recurso que pode favorecer a aprendizagem significativa, além de contribuir para a transformação das práticas de educação em saúde / The objective of this research was to elaborate and validate an Educational Technology about Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever (RMSF) in order to offer an innovative method of teaching to promote and facilitate learning about RMSF. This methodological study used diagnosis, instructional planning, didactic design, revision, validation, and production of the technology. The analysis and diagnosis were carried out based on an extension activity in education and health related to RMSF at the Campus-USP, Ribeirão Preto (2014-2015). In the instructional planning, we defined that the Educational Technology would be presented in the form of an Interactive Laboratory, with learning stations. The Laboratory production counted with a multidisciplinary team collaboration involving researchers, nurses, electrician, carpenter, plastic artist, tailor and designer. The revision and validation process was divided in appearance and content validation and semantic validation. The appearance and content validation was carried out by 9 (nine) judges, with experience in biology and education areas. The semantic validation was performed by 8 (eight) undergraduates from nursing and pedagogy courses. The results of the appearance and content validation showed a CVI greater than 0.8 to the majority of the variables. In the semantic validation, the Laboratory presented a good acceptance and understanding by the participants, thus maintaining the same organization and content. We considered that the trajectory used for the elaboration of the Interactive Laboratory on RMSF confers academic and scientific support to the constructed product and contributes with its pedagogical potential as a resource that can provide significant learning; furthermore, it contributes with health practices transformation
