Encontros de ensino de História como espaçostempo de pesquisa: o professor-pesquisador e o estudante-pesquisador nos cotidianos escolares / History teaching as research spaces-time meetings: the teacher-researcher and the student-researcher in school routineJoana Ribeiro dos Santos 03 May 2012 (has links)
Este texto é resultado de encontros. Encontros de sala de aula, encontros de História, encontros de debate, encontros de vidas. Estes encontros produziram novos fios que foram tecendo-se juntos e unindo-se a uma rede que associava questões acerca do cotidiano escolar, do ensino de História, da formação do professor, da escola noturna e da pesquisa em sala de aula. Desejava-se compreender se a escola é um espaçotempo de pesquisa e se os estudantes são estudantes-pesquisadores e os docentes, professores-pesquisadores. Ao final da pesquisa realizada em uma escola noturna da rede estadual do Rio de Janeiro, pudemos compartilhar experiências vividas no cotidiano de seus praticantes e discutir se a escola proporciona ações de pesquisa entre os estudantes e se a mesma busca desenvolver atividades que partam dos interesses do grupo discente. A escola é um lugar de pesquisa e nós somos estudantes-pesquisadores e professores-pesquisadores mesmo que, muitas vezes, a escola, da forma como está organizada e sofrendo pressões internas e externas diversas, como, por exemplo, a falha formação de professores e as políticas públicas de ensino, negligencie os interesses dos estudantes e que os mesmos não consigam reconhecer-se enquanto condutores de seu processo de aprendizagem, estudantes e professores pesquisadores. É a experiência da pesquisa, de atividades que estimulem o estudante a fazer escolhas, buscar informações, analisá-las, criticá-las, organizar o seu pensamento, apropriar-se dos conhecimentos reunidos e colocar-se diante da sociedade, modificando-se, que formará os cidadãos críticos que a escola e o ensino de História devem auxiliar a form / This text is the result of some meetings. Classroom meetings, History meetings, discussion meetings, life meetings. Those meetings produced some new threads, which have woven together and joined a net that associated questions about school routine, History teaching, teachers training, evening school and research in the classroom. The aim was to understand if school is a research time-space and if pupils are researcher-students and also if teachers are researcher-teachers. By the conclusion of the research, developed in an evening public school in Rio de Janeiro, we could share the daily experiences of its practitioners and discuss if school provides research actions among students, and also if it tries to develop activities from the pupils interest. The school is a research place and we are researcher-students and researcher-teachers, even though, in many circumstances, school, as it is organized, under various internal and external pressures, such as, for instance, the failure in teachers training and the teaching public politics, denies pupils interests. In this kind of organization, students are not able to recognize themselves as conductors of their own learning-teaching process, researcher students and teachers. It is the research experience, from activities which stimulate students to make choices, search for information, analyze and criticize them, organize their thought, appropriate themselves of the gathered acknowledgment and have a position in society, changing themselves, the final result will be the critical citizens, who should be educated under the assistance of school and History teaching.

Dois rumos na noite de Porto Alegre : dinâmica socioespacial e lazer noturno nos bairros Cidade Baixa e Moinhos de VentoFonseca, Luciana Marson January 2006 (has links)
Este é um estudo comparativo entre duas áreas de lazer noturno em dois diferentes bairros na cidade de Porto Alegre: o aristocrático Moinhos de Vento e o mais antigo, popular e boêmio – e atualmente na moda – Cidade Baixa. No seu ponto de partida está o interesse em buscar as razões para a migração que vem ocorrendo ultimamente de freqüentadores do bairro Moinhos de Vento para os bares e outros estabelecimentos noturnos na Cidade Baixa. O estudo trabalha simultaneamente com variáveis sociais e espaciais procurando relacionar o perfil socioeconômico de habitués e migrantes com os lugares onde ocorrem a sua interação, bem como os padrões de seu comportamento socioespacial – os lugares que eles tendem a escolher, as razões para isso, se costumam ir sozinhos ou em grupos, se preferem estar dentro ou fora dos bares etc. Com este objetivo foram identificados quatro diferentes subespaços em cada bairro, de acordo com os tipos de lazer, de lugar e de freqüentador que eles têm a oferecer. Os dados empíricos mostram que o perfil socioeconômico, assim como as escolhas e o comportamento socioespacial de habitués e migrantes não são tão diferentes a ponto de provocar a migração do bairro aristocrático Moinhos de Vento para a cena underground da Cidade Baixa. Contudo o grau de homogeneidade quanto às opções de lazer do Moinhos de Vento, comparado à multiplicidade de escolhas na Cidade Baixa, parece indicar a diversidade como principal fator responsável pelo movimento migratório. / This is a comparative study between two areas of night entertainment, located in two very different neigbourhoods in the city of Porto Alegre: the rather aristocratic Moinhos de Vento and the old popular, bohemian, and at the present very fashionable Cidade Baixa. At its starting point lies the interest in looking for the reasons behind the migration of costumers from Moinhos de Vento toward bars and other similar places in Cidade Baixa, that has been taken place of late. The study works with both social and spatial variables, looking for relations between the socio economic profile of habitués and migrants, the spatial settings where their interaction takes place and their patterns of socio-spatial behaviour– which places they tend to choose, the reasons for that, if they use to go there by themselves or in groups, if they like to be inside or outside the bars, and so on. In order to do that four differentiated sub-areas were identified in each neigbourhood, according to the kind of entertainment, locals and types of customers they offer. Data evidence shows that the socioeconomic profile as well as the spatial choices and behaviour of habitués and migrants from both neirbourhoods present no such differences so as to account for the migration from the aristocratic Moinhos de Vento toward the underground scene of Cidade Baixa. Nevertheless, it seems that the degree of homogeneity in the options for entertainment in Moinhos de Vento in comparison to the multiplicity of choices in Cidade Baixa, pointed out to diversity as the possible main factor behind the migratory movement.

Den skolstrejkande flickansom blev världsberömdklimataktivist : En kvalitativ och kvantitativ innehållsanalys av hur Greta Thunberg gestaltats i svensk dags och kvällspress / The girl who became a world famous climate activist : A qualitative and quantitative analysis of the framing of Greta Thunberg in Swedish newspapersStröm, Julia, Daneshmand-Mehr, Ella January 2020 (has links)
Since Greta Thunberg started her environmental school strike in August 2018 she has become a world famous activist and has been portrayed in news media everywhere. The aim of this bachelor study has been to examine how Greta Thunberg has been portrayed in the Swedish news media through examining two daily press newspapers and two evening press newspapers. This resulted in analyzing articles in Aftonbladet, Expressen, Dagens Nyheter and Svenska Dagbladet. By using a qualitative and a quantitative content analysis we investigated three different events connected to Greta Thunberg through published articles. During 2018 the event that started her journey, which is the school strike, was selected as one of these happenings. During 2019 we chose her UN- speech in New York, and for the last event her speech at the World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting in Davos was chosen. By choosing these specific events we could build a perception of what the media's portrayal of Greta Thunberg has been like during these three years. Therefore this study also aimed to answer the following research questions: - How has Greta Thunberg been portrayed in the daily press and the evening press? - Has the portrayal of Greta Thunberg changed over time? In this study we used the Framing Theory and also the protest paradigms as guidelines and we also applied von Zabern & Tulloch (2020) and Bergmann & Ossewaardes (2020) different frames. This study then led to an identification of a new framing of Greta Thunberg which we named “Speaking without speaking”, mostly consisting of what politicians and celebrities are saying about Greta Thunberg in the press. We also found that by examining these specific events that Greta Thunberg has been portrayed in different ways. Therefore we could also conclude that the framings and portrayals of Greta Thunberg changed throughout time. This means that she went from being portrayed as a young girl skipping school for the climate, to a world famous environmental activist and finally becoming a trustworthy leader. Therefore our study shows that Greta Thunberg was being undermined due to her young age in the ibeginning, but as her status grew the media changed their portrayal of her into the role model that she has become today.

"Ingen tror på Åkesson" : En jämförande studie om kvällspressens och public service rapportering om Sverigedemokraterna inför valet 2014 / "No one believes in Åkesson" : A comparative study on the evening press and the public service reporting on the Swedish Democrats before the 2014 electionNordenhem, Susanna, Laurila, Malin January 2015 (has links)
No one believes in Åkesson - a comparative study on the evening press and the public service reporting on the Swedish Democrats before the 2014 election. The purpose of this essay was to study how Aftonbladet and Ekot reports about the Swedish Democrats before the election 2014, as well as comparing the two medias and reasoning about their agendas towards the party. The tabloid, Aftonbladet, is one of the biggest newspapers in Sweden, which depends on counter sales and commercials. Ekot, which is a part of public service, is state-funded and regulated by certain guidelines. Using a quantitative method we studied 80 articles, and through a qualitative method, six of the articles were analyzed to reach a deeper understanding. The theories primary used in this study were agenda-setting and framing, to stress the power of media. As well as political communication, to examine whether the Swedish Democrats are portrayed according to the democratics ideals of what kind of information journalism should provide citizens before an election. The result showed that the politics of the Swedish Democrats was rarely applied in the news articles. It also showed that both Aftonbladet and Ekot tended to portray the political party with a primary negative agenda. The Swedish Democrats were often described as racists, ignorant and irresponsible. Although Ekot proved to be a bit more restrict in their reporting, there were little differences in how both media presented the politcal party. Although the Swedish Democrats has taken on costumes instead of bomber jackets, and has an office in the Swedish Parliament, they still in 2014 aren’t neutralised or portraid as a serious political alternative, in either Aftonbladet nor Ekot.

<b>Using Bayesian Occupancy Modeling to Inform Bat Conservation in Indiana</b>Sally Martinez (19195474) 23 July 2024 (has links)
<p dir="ltr">Using historic acoustic bat data collected by the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, we constructed Bayesian occupancy models to gain insights into bat communities and populations across Indiana. Through use of informative prior distributions, we addressed two important considerations for bat conservation with our occupancy models: 1) exploring a compensatory community dynamic causing the expansion of evening bat (<i>Nycticeius humeralis</i>) populations in Indiana following the establishment of white-nose syndrome (WNS), and 2) estimating a percent decline of summertime hoary bat (<i>Lasiurus cinereus</i>) populations in Indiana due to wind energy development. We found evidence for a potential compensatory community dynamic in the evening bat system, in which losses of the Indiana bat (<i>Myotis sodalis</i>) and the little brown bat (<i>Myotis lucifugus</i>) due to WNS may be resulting in new realized niche space for evening bats, thereby contributing to a compensatory community dynamic. In our hoary bat system, we found evidence of a regional summertime decline of 8.9% annually since 2012. These findings have important conservation implications considering imperiled nature and conservation priorities for bats in North America. </p>

夜裡的魔境魔鏡:青少年夜晚家外活動的自我形塑歷程探究 / Examine the course of self-development for adolescents involving in evening activities in the community李筱涵, Lee, Hsiao Han Unknown Date (has links)
本研究試圖從青少年的視角,透過詮釋現象學方法論觀點來認識三位青少年夜晚家外的活動經驗、活動歷程的轉變、對活動經驗所賦予的意義,以及在夜晚家外活動中,所覺察到的自身角色定位與自我的意義。藉由深度訪談的方式蒐集分析文本,資料分析方法上則使用主題分析法呈現三位青少年夜晚家外活動與自我形塑的歷程。
三位青少年夜晚家外自我形塑的歷程故事,呈現了「青少年」不是只有單一的樣貌。隨著每一位青少年不同的個人特質與喜好,再加上生活情境脈絡的差異,在與不同的人事物互動當中,形塑了每一個人不同的經歷與角色形象,展現了不同的「自我」。「自我」的意義存在於每一個人的行動當中,是個人與環境互動過程而產生的,因此青少年夜晚的家外行動,一部份展現其生活環境的區域特性,另一方面,也展現了個人的主體性,在看似相同的活動當中,卻有一些不同的行動,以及行動背後所隱藏著不同的意義脈絡。所以如同我和三位青少年,四個人,就有四種夜晚的故事,而一千零一個青少年,就會有一千零一夜的故事。
最後根據本研究之結果,研究者於文末針對家庭、學校、青少年相關政策、青少年外展工作提出了相關建議與省思。 / Using hermeneutic phenomenology, this study examined evening activities of three adolescents in the community. I conducted in-depth interviews, asking the participants to describe their evening activities, the meaning of these activities, and the role of self in these activities. I analyzed the transcripts using thematic analysis and presented their course of self-development involving in these varying evening activities in the community.
The evening stories of these three participants showed that three were no stereotypical images of youth. Every youths had their own personal traits and preferences. And, their individual life situations and people interaction shaped who they have become and how they see themselves. Therefore, the meaning of self exists in every human action with other individuals and in the environment. So, the types of evening activities youths participated in showed the characteristics of the environment they lived in and showed their individual unique characteristics. Even though there were some activities seemingly identical, there were hidden meanings behind them. These study showed that ever youth has their own unique story. Like me and the participants, we together had four evening stories to tell. So if there were one thousand and one youths, there would be one thousand and one stories to tell.

Fallet Emilia: En cocktail av sex, droger och brottsjournalistik : En kvalitativ studie om hur lokal och kvällspress skildrar fallet Emilia Lundberg / The case of Emilia Lundberg: A cocktail of sex, drugs and crime journalism : A qualitative study about how local and evening press illustrate the case of Emilia LundbergSvensson, Linn, Wiener, Elsa January 2022 (has links)
The aim of this study was to illustrate how a female murder victim is portrayed in local and evening press journalism. This was investigated through a critical discourse analysis that compares Kristianstadsbladet's and Aftonbladet's news reporting in connection with the murder of Emilia Lundberg in November 2019. With a total of 23 articles from Kristianstadsbladet and Aftonbladet we analysed the articles by first studying the texts and their properties. This was done by analysing the discourses that appear in the selection of articles and the word choices that describe Emilia Lundberg as a person and victim. Then we analysed the journalistic conventions, such as dramatisation and sensationalisation which appear in the reporting. We came to the conclusion that Aftonbladet was more descriptive and focused on portraying Emilia as a person than Kristianstadsbladet was. Emilia was described in Aftonbladet as an innocent, young woman who was murdered by an evil and emotionless murderer, which were elements that could connect her to being classified as an ideal victim in the reporting. However, there were also several important elements in the reporting that spoke against her being an ideal victim, which we believed weighed heavier. This led us to draw the final conclusion that Emilia could not be considered to be an ideal victim in Aftonbladet and Kristianstadsbladet's reporting. We also drew the conclusion that the local and evening press does not deviate from dramatising and sensationalising events of the crime during the reporting process, but that it occurs to a greater extent in the evening press.

Religious and Secular Correlates of the LDS Family Home Evening ProgramMauss, Gordon E. 01 August 1969 (has links) (PDF)
The purpose of this study was to describe and explore three phenomenon of the L.D.S. Family Home Evening Program: (1) the nature of religious commitment in an L.D.S. sample, (2) the degree of participation, (3) the relation of certain religious and secular variables.The data for the study were made available to the researcher by A. L. Mauss, as part of a larger study designed to measure the impact of Urbanism upon Mormonism. The instrument, modeled after the Glock and Stark studies, was adapted to a random sample of 958 members of the L.D.S. Church in Utah.The nature of religious commitment was found to be multi-dimensional. Normative participation in the program was low when compared with similar Church programs. None of the variables showed a high correlation with participation.It was concluded that the Church has not yet succeeded in designing the Program to meet the needs of most Church members, and that some weightier factors must account for participation and/or non-participation in the Program than those tested.
