Previous issue date: 2013-03-11 / This study aimed to correlate intellectual skills that compose the Multiple Intelligences Theory with Information Literacy model s informational competencies, using the Virtual
Health Library of Infectious and Parasitic Diseases (VHL DIP) by lay users, defined in this study as users/learners. The study followed a descriptive-qualitative approach using the
Systematic Review of the Literature as a data collection method, introspective technique based on "Thinking Aloud" on Single Verbal Protocol mode and also a semi-structured
interview. We identified one hundred ninety-five characteristics, skills and/or specific core competencies of the eight Multiple Intelligences established and potential correlations with the Information Literacy model, as evidenced by the gaps between both competencies. It might be inferred that the noticed correlation between skills and/or cognitive skills that set and characterize the Multiple Intelligences and Information Literacy is evident, in general on action verbs, which also characterize the core concept of each intelligence or competence. Thus, it may be argued that these action verbs are equally important to define processes and
contents of information training programs for users/learners, leading to both skills intellectual and informational and potentially contributing to learning along the whole life.
Some applications already existing in literature or implemented in practice were found, as well as new action suggestions were pointed out to be implemented by information
professionals, whatever their professional environment, which is one of the contributions of this study, with special emphasis on the improvement of information training programs for
users/learners within or outside the school or academic sphere. As results of the Systematic Review of the Literature, there were been analyzed thirty-nine publications, seven articles being considered relevant, emphasising on empirical research reported in them. And, as results of application of the Verbal Individual and semi-structured interview, it was obtained the characterization of the users/learners who participating in the empirical research, the identification of the manifestations of Multiple Intelligences of users/learners in interaction with VHL DIP and the analysis of perceptions and competencies required by these users when they were using this source of information. It can be highlighted the relevance of Information Literacy and Intelligence for Health, since they can contribute to health promotion, to health literacy and life quality. Likewise, it can be concluded that the stimulus to the development of intelligence lead to Information Literacy development, as the same way as the encouragement of Information Literacy contribute to the development of Multiple Intelligences, which again shows the reciprocal relationship between both competencies and skills cognitive and
informational / O presente estudo objetivou correlacionar competências intelectuais que compõem as Inteligências Múltiplas com competências informacionais do modelo de Competência em
Informação, no uso da Biblioteca Virtual em Saúde de Doenças Infecciosas e Parasitárias (BVS DIP) por usuários leigos, entendidos nesta pesquisa como usuários/aprendizes. O
estudo seguiu um delineamento descritivo e qualitativo utilizando-se como métodos de coleta de dados a Revisão Sistemática da Literatura, a técnica introspectiva do Pensar Alto (Thinking aloud) na modalidade Protocolo Verbal Individual e a Entrevista Semiestruturada. Foram identificadas cento e noventa e cinco características, habilidades e/ou competências essenciais específicas das oito Inteligências Múltiplas e estabelecidas as potenciais correlações com o modelo de Competência em Informação, assim como se evidenciaram as lacunas existentes entre ambas as competências. Pôde-se inferir que a correlação observada
entre as competências e/ou habilidades cognitivas que compõem e caracterizam as Inteligências Múltiplas e a Competência em Informação é evidente, de maneira geral, em
verbos de ação, os quais caracterizam também o conceito nuclear de cada inteligência ou competência. Assim, pode-se dizer que estes verbos de ação são igualmente importantes para direcionar os processos e conteúdos dos programas de capacitação informacional de usuários/aprendizes, proporcionando o estímulo para ambas as competências intelectuais e informacionais e contribuindo potencialmente para o aprendizado ao longo da vida. Com isso, algumas das aplicações existentes em literatura ou já executadas na prática foram evidenciadas, bem como se apontaram novas sugestões de ações que podem ser implementadas por profissionais da informação, qualquer que seja seu ambiente de atuação, sendo esta uma das contribuições deste estudo, com especial ênfase no aprimoramento dos programas de capacitação informacional de usuários/aprendizes dentro ou fora do âmbito escolar ou acadêmico. Como resultados obtidos da Revisão Sistemática da Literatura, foram analisadas trinta e nove publicações, sendo considerados sete artigos pertinentes, com especial destaque às pesquisas empíricas relatadas nestes artigos. E, como resultados obtidos da
aplicação do Protocolo Verbal Individual e da entrevista semiestruturada, obteve-se a caracterização dos usuários/aprendizes participantes da pesquisa empírica, a identificação das manifestações das Inteligências Múltiplas dos usuários/aprendizes na interatividade com a BVS DIP e a análise das percepções e competências requeridas por estes usuários no uso desta fonte de informação. Pode-se evidenciar a relevância da Competência em Informação e da Inteligência para a Saúde, uma vez que contribuiriam à promoção e à alfabetização em saúde, bem como a qualidade de vida. Igualmente, pode-se concluir que o estímulo às
inteligências favorece o desenvolvimento da Competência em Informação, bem como o estímulo à Competência em Informação favorece o desenvolvimento das Inteligências
Múltiplas, evidenciando, mais uma vez, a relação de reciprocidade entre ambas as competências e habilidades cognitivas e informacionais

Breaking silences through collaborative actions : exploring ways to empower students with learning difficultiesScott, Hannah Jeanne January 2012 (has links)
Students with learning difficulties are said by many writers to be prohibited from having a valued learner identity and denied a voice in which to influence their educational circumstances. They are, it is argued, kept submerged in a ‘culture of silence’, where they are homogenised as a deficit category of learners and, therefore, perceived in a one-dimensional way. Such disabling barriers stem from practitioner assumptions and wider sociological influences, which are also part of this same culture. The by-products of this thinking have prevented practitioners from developing more interactive and enabling relationships with their students. Starting with a commitment to listen to student views, and explore accessible, flexible and innovative ways in which to advocate these, the research reported in this thesis sought ways to address this agenda. Set in a further education college, five student co-researchers, four practitioner co-researchers and a facilitator co-researcher embarked on a year long project to learn how the same students could be supported in contributing to their own learning. Being a transparent account, the inquiry was also interested in exploring the difficulties of this endeavour and whether student empowerment would alter the relational dynamics and, therefore, practitioner roles. As the facilitator was instrumental in introducing these ideas, she also examined her own influential role. Data were generated from observations and co-researcher experiences of engaging with roles, body collages, student interviews, photo voice, journals, portfolios and reflective meetings. These exploratory processes and methods were predicated upon the ideological frameworks of the social model of disability and multiple intelligences theory. The study revealed that renegotiated co-researcher roles and body collages were effective processes for enabling reciprocal engagement, causing students to empower themselves and leading practitioners to rethink in ways that had not been anticipated. These processes were also felt to be educationally effective in relation to curriculum aims. Whilst journals and lengthy meetings proved to be impractical and of little use, the reflective journal did prove to be an essential tool for the facilitator, allowing her to draw upon further evidence. The findings indicate that student voice can be raised through collaboration and forging relationships of trust and co-ownership. The thesis concludes by arguing that silences were broken, not least since these collaborative actions are still being used in the particular context in ways that are conducive to everyday practices. Although time and commitment are needed, these are valuable strategies that other marginalised educational communities may benefit from adopting.

Exploring teacher education initiatives in preparing trainee teachers for handling gifted learners as a way of ensuring education for all in Zimbabwean primary schoolsDube, Florence 06 1900 (has links)
Primary school teachers in Zimbabwe tend to face a number of challenges that need to be overcome if they are to handle learners with diverse needs effectively. The main problem has been failure by teachers to deal with gifted learners. The objective of this qualitative study focused on answering the key research question, ‘What are the teacher education initiatives undertaken by Teachers Colleges to prepare trainee teachers in handling gifted learners in primary schools in Zimbabwe?’ The problem is mainly attributed to preparation of teachers during pre-service training. Primary school education in Zimbabwe has tended to ignore gifted learners as compared to learners who experience academic barriers. It has been observed that records kept by trainee teachers on teaching practice reflect some serious planning considerations given to remedial cases in which gifted learners are completely ignored. This suggests that the trainee teachers are not deliberately ignoring gifted learners but have an inherent assumption that they do not need extra attention. The research was grounded in the constructivist paradigm to gain a full understanding of the social life-world of the initiatives by teacher education in the preparation of trainee teachers to handle gifted learners. A phenomenological design was employed to collect data through qualitative methods, namely semi-structured interviews, observation and focus group discussion. The respondents to these data collection methods were lecturers from two teachers colleges, qualified teachers and trainee teachers from two primary schools. The main finding was that gifted education was missing in the teacher preparation to enable trainee teachers to handle gifted learners. The researcher made some recommendations from the conclusions drawn from the research findings. The recommendations included that there is need for a national policy on gifted education to provide guidelines for teacher education programmes and that teacher training colleges should review their curriculum specifically in Theory of Education and Professional Studies to include gifted education. / Curriculum and Instructional Studies / D.
