The support of these students has raised the discussion of the relationship Common Education Network in Regular and Special Education, ie involves the debate on the need to develop a coordinated action between different educational agents within the school inclusion. In this sense the collaborative approach between these various actors involved in the education of these students: Regents Professor common class, support teacher `inclusion, teacher resource rooms multifunctional, family and community, is assuming a key role in a relationship positive among these professionals to contribute to the promotion of academic success of students with educational needs and other students of the school. So understand how the work has constituted the Special Education Professional allows you to analyze aspects of the inclusion of pupils with special educational needs. Thus, we chose to define the teacher to support inclusion, as this professional has assumed an important role in the implementation of inclusion policies in Goiás So ask yourself: How has the role of teacher to support inclusion? What indicators are present in collaborative teaching and teacher performance to support inclusion? The main objective of this research is to analyze the words of teachers to support inclusion of their educational practices and indicators that they present for collaborative teaching. In this research we used the collaborative research, this type of research the researcher and seek data also enables the continuous training of teachers, space for teachers to have freedom of expression, the analyzes were carried out in stages which is subdivided into six meetings. In the first meeting held by Oceesp participating teachers to be informed about the objectives and risks of the study signed the Terms of Consent (IC), agreeing to participate in the research, thereby allowing the use of their lines and all registration information listed during the search. In addition, the teachers answered a questionnaire on appearing on your identifying information, education and performance. Was focused on the role and activities of teachers to support inclusion through a press conference. The desk study on the role and performance of the teacher Inclusion support and collaborative learning was conducted in order to inform and enlighten teachers about national and state legislation on special education and inclusion, contextualizing the role and function of the teacher support, providing a better understanding of collaborative learning, its relationship with the classroom teacher, culminating in the synthesis of the data. / A atuação de profissionais da Educação Especial vem se constituindo em condição fundamental para educação e inclusão de estudantes com necessidades educacionais especiais. O apoio a esses alunos tem levantado a discussão da relação Educação Comum na Rede Regular e Educação Especial, isto é envolve o debate sobre a necessidade de desenvolver uma atuação articulada entre os diferentes agentes educacionais no âmbito da inclusão escolar. Nesse sentido a perspectiva colaborativa, entre esses diferentes agentes que intervêm no processo educativo desses alunos: professor regente de classe comum, professor de apoio `a inclusão, professor de salas de recursos multifuncionais, família e comunidade, vem assumindo um papel fundamental para uma relação positiva entre esses profissionais, no sentido de contribuir com a promoção do sucesso escolar dos alunos com necessidades educacionais e dos demais alunos da escola. Portanto compreender como vem se constituindo a atuação dos profissionais de Educação Especial permite analisar aspectos da inclusão escolar dos alunos com necessidades educacionais especiais. Desse modo, optamos por definir o professor de apoio à inclusão, uma vez que esse profissional vem assumindo um papel importante na implementação de políticas de inclusão em Goiás. Então se pergunta: Como tem sido a atuação do professor de apoio à inclusão? Quais os indicadores de ensino colaborativo estão presentes na atuação do professor de apoio à inclusão? O objetivo principal desta investigação é analisar os dizeres dos professores de apoio à inclusão sobre as suas práticas educativas e os indicadores que as mesmas apresentam de ensino colaborativo. Na presente pesquisa utilizou-se da pesquisa colaborativa, neste tipo de pesquisa o pesquisador além de buscar dados, possibilita também a formação continuada dos professores, espaço para que os professores tenham liberdade de expressão, as análises foram realizadas em etapas que se subdividiram em seis encontros. No primeiro Encontro realizado pelo Oceesp os professores participantes ao serem esclarecidos sobre os objetivos e riscos da pesquisa assinaram os Termos de Consentimento Livre e Esclarecido (TCLE), concordando em participar da pesquisa, autorizando assim a utilização de suas falas e todo registro de informações elencadas durante a pesquisa.Além disso, os professores responderam a um formulário, em que constavam seus dados de identificação, formação e atuação. Foi focalizado o papel e atuação dos professores de apoio à Inclusão através de uma entrevista coletiva. Oestudo documental sobre o papel e atuação do professor de apoio à Inclusão e o ensino colaborativo foi realizado com o intuito de informar e esclarecer as professoras quanto a legislação nacional e estadual, sobre a educação especial e inclusão, contextualizando o papel e função do professor de apoio, proporcionando uma melhor compreensão do ensino colaborativo, de sua relação com o professor regente, culminando na síntese dos dados.

This thesis is an investigation into the exercise of autonomy in the practice of collaborative, project-based classrooms. The investigation set out to answer two research questions: What are the forms of autonomy expected of students in project-based classes?, and What are the factors that mediate the employment of autonomy in these classes? The investigation gathered qualitative data from students and teachers of four project-based, computer-assisted courses in four language departments at The University of Melbourne. The study was carried out in two stages, over two years. In all, a total of ten 14-week classes run by four teachers were investigated, containing a total of 136 students. The first year (stage one of the investigation) focussed on teacher practice and course syllabi, and addressed the first research question. The second year (stage two), focussed on student practice and addressed the second research question.

The purpose of this study was to explore how teacher learning happened informally at the workplace. Another aim was to describe the ways in which informal learning contributes to teacher development. The study also endeavoured to establish if the school supported or hindered informal learning. The method of case study was used to understand how both novice and experienced teachers learn informally in a secondary school. The study examined five teachers’ informal learning experiences in the school by drawing on accounts of the individual teachers’ perceptions and reflections documented in journals, photographs and interviews. The journal entries were used to write narratives which outlined how teachers learnt informally in the workplace. Teachers were asked to take photographs of the places in which they learnt informally. The interviews awarded teachers the opportunity to talk about the photographs they chose to capture. The study found that teachers engage in various forms of informal learning opportunities at school. These opportunities were both planned and unplanned. The research indicated that informal learning is situated. Some of the learning opportunities included being part of a learning community, learning by interacting with colleagues in informal chats and attending meetings. In these instances it was found that teachers learnt with and from others, which is socially. This illustrates collaborative learning in the school. Teachers also engaged in individual learning. It was discovered that the school must provide opportunities for teachers to engage in informal learning. The study considered the various opportunities that existed in the school for teachers to develop and found that such opportunities contributed towards extending teacher knowledge and development. The study found that teachers in the study were willing to take the initiative to seek the learning they thought they required. The study recommends that informal learning be recognised as an authentic form of teacher learning and development in schools. Further, schools must become sites of learning for teachers by creating, encouraging and sustaining learning opportunities. / Thesis (M.Ed.)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, Pietermaritzburg, 2011.

Dieser Beitrag untersucht die These über die Existenz von Digital Natives. Die Vertreter dieser These postulieren, dass Studenten und Schüler durch den frühen Kontakt mit Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologien hinsichtlich ihres Lern-, Arbeits- und Kommunikationsverhaltens wesentlich verändert wurden. Um diese Aussage zu bewerten, werden Erfahrungen mit Virtual Collaborative Learning Veranstaltungen herangezogen. Die aktuellste durchgeführte Veranstaltung wird als Fallstudie vorgestellt und analysiert.

Objective: Project ECHO (Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes), a telementoring program, utilizes lectures, case-based learning, and an “all teach–all learn” approach to increase primary care provider (PCP) knowledge/confidence in managing chronic health conditions. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) Epilepsy and Comorbidities ECHO incorporated quality improvement (QI) methodology to create meaningful practice change, while increasing PCP knowledge/self-efficacy in epilepsy management using the ECHO model. Methods: Monthly ECHO sessions (May 2018 to December 2018) included lectures, case presentations/discussion, and QI review. Pediatric practices were recruited through the AAP. Practices engaged in ECHO sessions and improvement activities including monthly Plan-Do-Study-Act cycles, team huddles, chart reviews, and QI coaching calls to facilitate practice change. They were provided resource toolkits with documentation templates, safety handouts, and medication side effects sheets. QI measures were selected from the American Academy of Neurology Measurement Set for Epilepsy. The AAP Quality Improvement Data Aggregator was used for data entry, run chart development, and tracking outcomes. Participants completed retrospective surveys to assess changes in knowledge and self-efficacy. Results: Seven practices participated across five states. Average session attendance was 14 health professionals (range = 13-17). A total of 479 chart reviews demonstrated improvement in six of seven measures: health care transition (45.3%, P =.005), safety education (41.6%, P =.036), mental/behavioral health screening (32.2% P =.027), tertiary center referral (26.7%, not significant [n.s.]), antiseizure therapy side effects (23%, n.s.), and documenting seizure frequency (7.1%, n.s.); counseling for women of childbearing age decreased by 7.8%. Significance: This project demonstrated that integrating QI into an ECHO model results in practice change and increases PCP knowledge/confidence/self-efficacy in managing epilepsy.

In recent years, the adoption of digital learning environments has been proven as a suitable complement to traditional lectures, allowing to involve students more actively. However, current approaches lack at supporting both lecturers' individual teaching scenarios and collaborative activities. Thus, this thesis introduces an adaptable collaborative learning environment that enables lecturers to model and execute customized teaching scenarios. In addition to expressive means of adaptation, it includes collaborative functions which support group and peer interactions. The approach was implemented in a role-based prototype called scenario-tailored Audience Response System (stARS), demonstrating its applicability through seven well-known teaching scenarios. Furthermore, a thorough evaluation based on various user studies and lecture experiments confirmed the ability to support lecturers' individual teaching scenarios and integrate advanced collaborative activities into digital learning environments.
