The general objective of this study was to analyze the contribution level of IFES?s Soil and Plant Laboratory (LSP) ? Campus Itapina in the academic education of students in the agronomy superior course. Since the LSP is recognized as of excellence around the nation, it was brought about the need to investigate students? and professors? standpoint whether the teaching reaches not only the understanding and mastery of the curriculum subject contents, but also and mainly the development of capabilities to articulate the theoretical and practical knowledge so as to contextualize them in their practical actions during the academic and professional life. To prove the veracity of this study, the methodology adopted the qualitative and quantitative approaches and, according to the purpose, the study was classified as an applied research of exploratory character. As to the technical procedures, the research is classified as bibliographical, documental and participatory. The instruments used for the research were observation, documental research and questionnaires containing open and closed questions answered by students taking the agronomy course during the second semester of the years 2010, 2011 and 2014 as means of comparison of theoretical and practical knowledge. Professors also answered questionnaires if their subjects were related to the soils and plants, according to the curriculum subject contents of the agronomy superior course. This study was organized in chapters, which describe the steps of the agricultural knowledge historicity, the evolution of agricultural teaching at IFES ? Campus Itapina, as well as the emergence of the agronomy course at the institution. It also reports the importance of IFES?s Soil and Plant Laboratory and its relevant contributions to the teaching, research and extension programs in the Campus. The obtained results helped the acknowledgment of the importance of academic practices during the agricultural teaching, according to the data from the questionnaires, which demonstrate the satisfaction rates, the acquired knowledge, the importance of the course, the development of the students, as well as the contribution of the LSP to the education of the students in the agronomy superior course. This research is supposed to contribute to needed changes and improvements in the pedagogical plan for the course so as to significantly contribute to the awakening and increase of the scientific interest of students. / A presente pesquisa relata a import?ncia das pr?ticas de ensino e a contribui??o destas no processo ensino-aprendizagem, quando proporcionam a rela??o te?rico - pr?tico - laboratorial no curso superior de Agronomia.

The aim in this study is to investigate how the textile subjects in the education of teachers in textiles in Uppsala changed during the period 1955-2001. What has the introduction into the academic, scientific tradition meant for the textile education? The aim is to describe what developments occurred as a result of this influence on the subject area, by analyzing the causes and factors inherent in this process. The period under consideration has been divided into four parts: 1955–1961, 1961–1977, 1977–1988 and 1988–2001. The research uses three different sources: documents, interviews and artefacts. The documents include both national and local aspects. To increase the understanding of the work and education 9 interviews have been made with current teacher educators. The artefacts show the transformation of the educators’ intentions and aims, which are expressed in the documents examined, into a physical entity by the students. In the investigation of what changes the concept of practical knowledge will be used. Practical knowledge is considered to form the core of textile education. Practical knowledge is assumed to consist of action, professional knowledge and reflection. Government directives have influenced textile education. Economical and structural assumptions have shaped how the courses have been run and what elements have been included in these. In the change that gradually occurred during the investigated time, the inherent pride in the subject area and the traditions linked to the courses seems to have slowly diminished. The redefinition of textile education as part of the university minimized the value of the education’s core based in action and domestic history. The continued production of artefacts within the course, suggests that despite the use of scientific and research terminology, the manual skills and action were seen as an essential part of the education.

Syftet med studien är att undersöka hur ett globalt management konsultföretag arbetar internt med kunskapsöverföring över landsgränser av den svåruttryckliga erfarenhetsbaserade kunskapen som en konsult innehar. Den kvalitativa data som används i empirin samlades in genom intervjuer med anställda på fallföretaget Accenture. Resultatet av undersökningen visade att praktisk kunskap överförs genom formella sammankomster samt en ”learning by doing” modell där konsulter av olika nationaliteter och grad av erfarenhet arbetar tillsammans på olika projekt. Erfarenheter från projekt samlas, lagras och överförs till databasen Knowledge Exchange, i en process där den praktiska kunskapen transformeras till teoretisk kunskap och görs tillgänglig för hela företaget. Studien visar att Accenture har rutiner som gör att dem överkommer de flesta hinder som presenteras i den befintliga teorin. Det hinder som Accenture belyste som ett problem var informationsöverflödet som fanns inom företaget. / The purpose of the study is to study how a global management consulting firm works internally with knowledge transfer across national borders of the hard to express, experience-based knowledge of a consultant. The qualitative data which is presented in the empirical part of the paper was collected through interviews with employees at the case firm Accenture. The result of the study showed that practical knowledge is transferred through formal meetings, and a “learning by doing” process, where consultants of different nationalities and degrees of experience work together on projects. Experiences from projects are collected, stored, and transferred to the Knowledge Exchange database, in a process where the practical knowledge is transformed into theoretical knowledge and made available to the entire company. The study shows that Accenture has routines that help them overcome most of the impediments presented in the existing theory. The impediment that Accenture expressed to be a problem within their organization was information overflow.

Life is for us humans a social life. We are constantly in different social communities with various purposes. Throughout life we are part of different groups, for better or worse. The basic social communities, in our society, are the groups we live, work, learn and grow in. This essay deals with the groups children develop and learn in, in school and leisure time center. The intention is to explore how teachers and leisure time pedagogue can work with these groups and what may be the best way to create a good group dynamic and cohesion. The essay is based on three portrayed experiences that are used in a developing process using a distanced discussion and reflective writing. I have found that the attitude and leadership teachers and leisure time pedagogue exercise, against both the individual child and the group, are crucial regarding the group´s functioning and wellbeing. One approach is to work with team building exercises and similar methods which I believe would help improve group cohesion and security. I also see that it is very important for teachers and leisure time pedagogue to think and reflect about how they convey the implied value of education to the children.  A critical view and reflective way, of both our self and the function as a whole, I have also found to be important to be able to achieve good group cohesion. / Tillvaron är för oss människor en social tillvaro. Ständigt skapas olika sociala gemenskaper med varierande syften. Vi ingår i olika grupper hela livet igenom, på gott och på ont. De grundläggande sociala gemenskaperna i vårt samhälle är de grupper vi lever, arbetar, lär och utvecklas i. Denna essä behandlar de grupper barn utvecklas och lär i, i skolan och på fritidshemmet. Syftet har varit att undersöka hur lärare och fritidspedagoger kan arbeta med dessa grupper på bästa sätt för att skapa en god gruppdynamik och sammanhållning. Essän tar utgångspunkt i tre gestaltade erfarenheter som används i en utvecklande process med hjälp av en distanserande diskussion och ett reflekterande skrivande. Jag har funnit att det förhållningssätt och ledarskap lärare och fritidspedagoger utövar, gentemot såväl det enskilda barnet som gruppen, är av avgörande vikt gällande gruppens fungerande och välmående. Ett arbetssätt att föra in i verksamheten, som jag anser skulle bidra till en förbättrad gruppsammanhållning och trygghet, är team-building och liknade arbetsätt i form av mycket gemensamma lekar och samarbetsövningar. Jag ser det också av stor vikt att fundera och reflektera över vad lärare och fritidspedagoger förmedlar till barnen genom den implicita värdepedagogiken. Ett kritisk granskande och reflekterande av oss själva såväl som verksamheten i helhet har jag också funnit som betydelsefullt för att uppnå en god gruppsammanhållning.

This scientific essay starts in a story where you get to follow me in my work by three situations with creative problem behavior at the special school where I work. The story culminates in a dilemma where I ask myself questions about how I look at my actions and my thoughts about the student. I break down and put these thoughts into three questions: What is my student's perspective and how will it affect my actions? How can I explain my actions and attitude of the student from ethical perspective? How do my practical knowledge look like in the narrative situations and why do I act like I do? My approach is to get answers to the questions by the reflection of the text itself, the reflection group and supervisors, as well as through literature that I find relevant to the issues. The process is like a pendulum motion between text, reflection and new understanding. I look at my situations based on psychological theories about the treatment of persons within the autism spectrum of problems creative behavior. My ethical issues, I see from the theoretical perspective which includes Aristotle, Levinas and Kant. I find that the answer to my questions can be paired with my practical actions. I notice that by putting words to them I get a new understanding of my actions. I see that most of the acts I do is based on the knowledge of my student's perspective and I find similarities to my situations and my acts to the literature. I approach it as my works practical wisdom.

The dissertation is an examination of obligation, which I argue is a mode of rational necessity that is proper to human agency. I begin from G. E. M. Anscombe’s celebrated attack against modern moral philosophy, and then sketch a positive theory of obligation as it figures in morality and in law, drawing upon the work of Aquinas and Aristotle. The first chapter explicates this idea of “practical necessity” and the second chapter shows that Aristotelian ethics, because it is not a theological law conception of ethics, has no place for a peculiarly moral conception of obligation. The third chapter examines Aquinas’s conception of moral law and argues that Aquinas vindicates Anscombe’s negative critique of the “moral ought.” The fourth chapter shows that the application of exceptionless moral norms (i.e. moral absolutes), which is one kind of obligation, requires attention to aspects of social practices. Attention to social practices allows the resolution of controverted problems about specifying intentions and applying the principle of double effect in a way that makes exceptionless moral norms workable. The fifth and final chapter defends the conception of intentional action assumed in the fourth chapter, and demonstrates that the scholastic ‘sub specie boni’ thesis is an integral part of action explanation, as well as Anscombe’s notion of “practical knowledge”. The upshot of the dissertation is an integrated investigation into how the ideas of good and necessity figure in ethics, law, and human action. / text

With examples from a single classroom situation, several educational moments show what goes on between the teacher and the student. The teacher’s responsibility in the learning process is, with a gesture frozen in the air of the moment, to lead and follow the student in her tentative efforts at seeking knowledge. Initially, it is an attempt to shed light upon the "not yet seen" with a certainty that the student herself possesses the capacity and the aptitude to reach greater insight and clarity in her understanding. The Validation/Feil Method presented in this instructional situation illustrates how best to communicate with elderly people suffering from Alzheimer’s dementia. This essay examines thoughts, reflections and somewhat deeper studies concerning the importance of the moment, or rather the various moments that appear along our journey. From this wandering, the importance of being open-minded, spontaneous and perceptive come to light as well as new concepts such as improvisation and lingering along the way. The art of perceiving is enhanced by concepts such as reading and intuition with the help and support of earlier philosophical tradition, primarily Aristotle’s various forms of knowledge and Hans-Georg Gadamer with his work within the hermeneutic tradition. The author also offers an example of knowledge and learning which, taken together, display the importance of being aware of the body of knowledge incorporated in the area of Practical Knowledge. This is one way of gaining understanding in harmony with others of existing reality and of life itself.

Min essä handlar om en händelse som är självupplevd. Den beskriver att det finns brist på erfarenhet om interkulturellt förhållningssätt på vissa förskolor. Den beskriver även att jag och mina kollegor inte kunde hantera några situationer som man i förskolans värld kan hamna i. Dilemmat som framträder i händelsen handlar om brist på kunskap när det gäller interaktion mellan olika kulturer. Detta speciellt på de institutioner där den är som allra viktigast i samhället, nämligen i skolans- och förskolans värld. Uppsatsen visar det förhållningssätt som pedagoger har gentemot vuxna och barn, som i pedagogernas ögon anses vara annorlunda. Det här är en vetenskaplig essäform där mina egna erfarenheter möter olika teoretiska perspektiv. På det sättet försöker jag att nå svar på mina frågor men även lyfta fram dilemmat i min essä. Därför får den som läser möjlighet att se mina erfarenheter ur nya perspektiv. Jag inleder min uppsats med att diskutera bristande interkulturellt ledarskap i förskolans miljö. Därefter utvecklas den med hjälp av teoretiska perspektiv, genom att lyfta fram hur vi kan bli bättre på att utveckla ett interkulturellt förhållningssätt. I mitt slutord reflekterar jag kring viktiga ämnen som essän har lyft fram med fokus på möjliga förbättringar. Det viktigaste ämnet i essän är det förhållningssätt som vi pedagoger har när det gäller barnens olikheter.

Denna vetenskapliga essä har som syfte att undersöka ett konstnärligt kunskapsutövande.Utgångspunkt tas i berättelser kring det egna görandet för att därefter lyfta in teoretiskaperspektiv på kunskapsprocesserna. Essän prövar att se på det konstnärliga utövandet som enform av praktisk kunskap och reflekterar kring hur denna kunskapsform kan beskrivas. Texten försöker speciellt fånga det som är svårast att beskriva i en konstnärlig process – inte det tekniska hantverkskunnandet, inte den teoretiska omgivande diskursen, utan den ickelinjära process där tankar och infall transformeras till en konstnärlig gestaltning. Vikt läggs vid att belysa reflektionsbegreppet och undersöka var, när och hur konstnärenreflekterar i sitt görande. Tankegångar från bland annat Donald Schön, Gilbert Ryle och ArtoHaapala inkluderas. Den konstnärliga praktikens förhållande till vetenskap, text och teoridiskuteras. Essän lyfter fram angelägenheten av att uppmärksamma kunskapsprocesser som inte så lätt kan inordnas under formaliserad kunskap. / The aim of this scientific essay is to explore specific knowledge and experiences within anartistic practice. The starting point of the essay is in the stories of and around making anddoing as a theoretical perspective is introduced to the processes of knowledge production. Theessay wants to examine the artistic practice as a form of practical knowledge and reflect uponhow this form of knowledge can be delineated. The text especially tries to capture whatconceivably is the most difficult aspect to describe of an artistic process. This would not bethe technical craft skill, not the ambient theoretical discourse but rather the nonlinear processof transforming ideas into an artistic form. The essay also emphasizes the issues surroundingthe concepts of reflection, discussing where, when and how an artist reflects within her ownmaking. References from e.g. Donald Schön, Gilbert Ryle and Arto Haapala are included.How the artistic practice is related to science, text and theory is also discussed. The essaywants to accentuate the importance of observing those processes of knowledge productionwhich not easily can be placed within formalized forms of knowledge.

This essay describes my work as a director in a specialized orientation within psychodrama, surrealistic psychodrama. Using the language and performance techniques of theater and under the guidance of a director, psychodrama creates an improvised narrative or story. The essay describes several dramas I have directed, reflecting on my actions and choices as a director and group leader. I examine whether my working method has allowed me to be spontaneous and creative, which I believe the example of "The dangerous bear" demonstrates. The process enabled me to establish trust and receptivity so that a newly constituted group dared to investigate conflicts in symbolic ways associated with illness and death. In addition I have investigated connections between the theory and philosophy of psychodrama and that of the theater of ancient Greece and Friedrich Nietzsche, all of which share the view that Dionysian or unbounded energy is significant for change. At the same time J. L Moreno, the founder of psychodrama, has made me aware that the philosophy of ancient Greek theater and Nietzsche require boundaries and fixed forms for this amorphous energy: Apollonian energy, calling for reflection and new roles. The essay also addresses developments in the Swedish healthcare system’s approach to treatment, where the requirement that methods be predicable and proven effective weighs more heavily than developing the individual’s own ability to function personally and professionally using good judgment and an increased ethical awareness. In conclusion I consider how, on a personal level, the essay has made it possible for me to combine creativity, logical reasoning and scholarly writing, which has been a great challenge.
