Mellan skilda världar : En studie av doktoranders lärsituation i relation till förutsättningarna i fyra företagsforskarskolor / Between Different Worlds : A study of the conditions for doctoral students' learning in four industrial research schoolsWallgren, Lillemor January 2007 (has links)
Företagsforskarskolor syftar till att kunskaps- och kompetensnivån i näringslivet skall höjas och högskolan tillföras kunskap och erfarenheter från näringslivet. Detta är tänkt att ske genom en utvidgad handledning, bestående av både en akademisk handledare och en industrihandledare, vidare ett avhandlingsprojekt som är av intresse för företaget och dessutom genom att företagsdoktoranderna parallellt med sin utbildning till viss del arbetar inom ett företag. Doktorsavhandlingens övergripande syfte är att, genom empiriska undersökningar, få insikt i och förståelse för företagsdoktoranders situation, i vilken handledningen är en central del. Avhandlingens mer specifika syften är att beskriva doktorandernas perspektiv, upplevelser och erfarenheter av sitt deltagande i olika praktiker, parallellt med sin identitetsutveckling till forskare inom ramen för forskarutbildningsprocessen. Av särskilt intresse är att undersöka och belysa de i undersökningarna identifierade framgångsfaktorerna och hindren i termer av förutsättningar samt behov av anpassning till företagsdoktoranders särskilda situation, där samarbetet inom handledningen är en faktor. För att uppnå dessa syften intervjuades år 2001 och år 2004 ett anta doktorander antagna till fyra olika företagsforskarskolor och några av deras handledare. Stora variationer beroende på företagsmiljö och forskarskoletillhörighet framkommer när det gäller upplevelserna av att vara företagsdoktorand. Detsamma gäller doktorandernas identifikation och deltagande, som resulterar i olika lärsystem med avseende på både dimension och karaktär. Även handledarsamarbetet kring doktoranden varierar och olika handledarkaraktärer framträder. De stora variationerna beror på faktorer som kan hänföras till företagsmiljön, doktorandernas inträde i forskarskolan, avhandlingsprojektet, forskarskoleorganisationen, handledningen och doktorandernas förväntningar inför framtiden. De flesta av dessa faktorer, liksom lärsystemens olika utformning, synliggörs med hjälp av teorier och begrepp inom situerat lärande. Det gör däremot inte de påverkansfaktorer som identifieras och som kan relateras antingen till övergripande strukturer och makt eller till motsättningar mellan olika kunskapsbildningsformer och verksamhets- och lärandelogiker.

School Effectiveness: A Qualitative Investigation Of Multiple Cases At Primary Schools In IzmirSivri, Hakan 01 June 2011 (has links) (PDF)
This study aimed to explore the characteristics of successful primary schools in the province of Izmir. In this study, qualitative research technique is employed through the perspective of multiple case studies. It was conducted in 9 distinguishingly effective primary public schools located in various districts of Izmir. The participants of the investigation were school administrators and teachers of the investigated schools.
Reviewing the relevant literature of the field, a model of school effectiveness characteristics (consisting of five factors) was exploited in order for conceptualizing the research. This frame of effectiveness characteristics were identified as achievement &ndash / oriented policy, orderly and secure climate, strong educational leadership, maintaining parental support and thorough monitoring of pupil progress.
Throughout the study, multiple case study method was adopted, and semi-structured interview technique was employed as the main data collection instrument. Content analysis technique was utilized to unfurl the data gathered through the interviews. The results of the research revealed that achievement orientation, strong educational leadership, school climate, monitoring students&rsquo / progress, parental support, and supportive physical environment are among the identified characteristics for school effectiveness.

Eliciting the views of disabled young people on friendship and belonging : authentic voices for action research engaging schools in change towards social inclusionHoskin, Claire January 2010 (has links)
This small-scale study is positioned within a social constructionist interpretive paradigm using a mixed methodology employing principles of adapted grounded theory, simple scale-based questionnaires and action research. Fourteen disabled young people from one specialist and three secondary mainstream settings were interviewed using semi-structured interviews to gain their views on friendship and belonging in schools. Three groups of parents, TAs, SENCos and allied education professionals engaged in action research to examine these views, their own views and values and those of disabled young people in their families and schools in order to better understand the sensitivities and subtleties of successful social inclusion and to consider change to whole school practice. The limitations that non-disabled adults unwittingly ‘construct’ that act as barriers to friendship and social inclusion were explicitly recognised in this interpretive research as a contribution to informing practice and theory in this domain. Paper One focuses on the views of young people and the meaning and importance they placed on friendship and social relationships in their lives. Findings included that young people in specialist and mainstream setting highly valued friendships but that sustaining friendships in the wider community was often problematic for those participants who attended schools outside their local community. This mainly affected the specialist setting students but was also recognised as an issue by some of the mainstream parents who lived outside the catchment area. Findings also revealed that young people gained their sense of belonging from the positive relationships they formed with TAs and teachers as well as friends. In order for friendship and positive social inclusion to develop, however, participants required schools to provide a supportive environment of accessible rooms, doors and lifts and adults who trusted them to have the competency and agency to manage their social times and spaces with choice and autonomy. The issue of ‘surplus visibility’ was highlighted by disabled young people who spoke of an experience of school where lack of choice concerning where and with whom to spend break times limited their friendship opportunities and sense of well-being and inclusion. This was compounded by an expectation of compliance by adults and automatic assumption of their belonging to a disabled group despite differences of sex, gender or common interests. The participants valued genuine connection through humour, interests and social support and were active in seeking private time for talking with friends. Schools that provided a range of highly social or quieter, more private, locations for students were highly valued. Paper Two describes using these views as stimulus for action research to bring about change towards improved social inclusion. Groups of parents, senior management, SENCos, TAs and other education professionals met formally three times over a four month period. These groups examined vignettes selected from data from paper one, engaged in debate and discussions, interviewed disabled young people themselves, formulated key concept maps leading to revised theoretical frameworks, reflected and evaluated the process of the action research and considered practice change or further research. This stage was a continued process of seeking to hear authentic voices, in depth discussion and reflection on what we were learning from disabled young people combined with our own knowledge, values, and beliefs. This led to the development of conceptual models and practical change intentions to promote social inclusion. Intentions to change included •Developing alternative social rooms with minimal TA presence •Including disabled young people in TA selection processes •Involving parents in reviewing the school inclusion policy •Establishing a regular parents’ support group •A commitment to keep listening to young people’s voices and preferences on key matters rather than ‘assuming that we already know!’ •Lengthening the lunch break in the specialist setting to ensure time for socialising and friendship building These commitments to change demonstrated that schools were able to engage successfully in the action research process, valued parents’contributions further and were willing to change practice towards greater social inclusion of disabled young people and parents.

O ato lúdico de conhecer: a pesquisa como processo dialógico de apropriação de dispositivos informacionais e culturais / The playful act of knowing: the research as dialogic process of appropriation of of informational and cultural devicesPassos, Marcos Paulo de 16 October 2013 (has links)
Procura-se compreender e sistematizar categorias (princípios, processos e metodologias) implicadas nas dinâmicas do ato de conhecer, compreendido como um jogo entre os sujeitos do conhecimento e o universo informacional. De um lado, pretende-se alcançar novas compreensões e sistematizar elementos que se mostrem fundamentais às relações significativas de crianças e jovens com o universo sígnico; de outro, a redefinição de referências conceituais e metodológicas relativas ao conceito de pesquisa com crianças e jovens na contemporaneidade. Inscrita num conjunto de outras realizações e objetivando a consolidação da área da Infoeducação, esta pesquisa, de natureza qualitativa, sob uma perspectiva transdisciplinar, constitui-se de abordagem exploratória na Estação do Conhecimento Albert Einstein na comunidade de Paraisópolis, em São Paulo. O estudo mostrou que a inclusão do lúdico como categoria da pesquisa implica um conjunto de elementos articulados que perpassam a ordem do dispositivo informacional: concepção sobre o ato de conhecer, organização do ambiente, práticas articuladas entre os diferentes mediadores, modos especiais de tratar a produção de conhecimento pelos grupos, categorias que podem e devem ser exploradas visando-se sua descrição detalhada e possível contribuição a um modo diferenciado de orientar ações que permitam às crianças e jovens poder, saber e, principalmente, querer conhecer. / Seeks to understand and systematize categories (principles, processes and methodologies) involved in the dynamics of knowing, understood as a game between the subject of knowledge and informational universe. In the other way, it seeks to reach new understandings and systematize elements that prove fundamental to meaningful relationships between childrens and youth signic universe; and on the other hand, the redefinition of conceptual and methodological references relating to the concept of research with children and young in contemporary. The research, qualitative, under a transdisciplinary perspective, consists of exploratory approach at Estação do Conhecimento Albert Einstein in community of Paraisópolis, in São Paulo. The study showed that the inclusion of playful as research of a category that implies a set of articulated elements that underlie the order of the informational device: conception of the knowing act, environmental organization, articulated practices among different mediators, special ways to treat knowledge production by groups, categories that can and should be explored in order to its detailed description and a possible contribution to a different way of guiding actions that enable children and youth have chance to, knowledge to, and especially, want to know.

Proceedings of the 3rd Ph.D. Retreat of the HPI Research School on Service-oriented Systems EngineeringJanuary 2009 (has links)
Design and Implementation of service-oriented architectures imposes a huge number of research questions from the fields of software engineering, system analysis and modeling, adaptability, and application integration. Component orientation and web services are two approaches for design and realization of complex web-based system.
Both approaches allow for dynamic application adaptation as well as integration of enterprise application.
Commonly used technologies, such as J2EE and .NET, form de facto standards for the realization of complex distributed systems.
Evolution of component systems has lead to web services and service-based architectures. This has been manifested in a multitude of industry standards and initiatives such as XML, WSDL UDDI, SOAP, etc. All these achievements lead to a new and promising paradigm in IT systems engineering which proposes to design complex software solutions as collaboration of contractually defined software services.
Service-Oriented Systems Engineering represents a symbiosis of best practices in object-orientation, component-based development, distributed computing, and business process management. It provides integration of business and IT concerns.
The annual Ph.D. Retreat of the Research School provides each member the opportunity to present his/her current state of their research and to give an outline of a prospective Ph.D. thesis. Due to the interdisciplinary structure of the Research Scholl, this technical report covers a wide range of research topics. These include but are not limited to: Self-Adaptive Service-Oriented Systems, Operating System Support for Service-Oriented Systems, Architecture and Modeling of Service-Oriented Systems, Adaptive Process Management, Services
Composition and Workflow Planning, Security Engineering of Service-Based IT Systems, Quantitative Analysis and Optimization of Service-Oriented Systems, Service-Oriented Systems in 3D Computer Graphics, as well as Service-Oriented Geoinformatics. / Der Entwurf und die Realisierung dienstbasierender Architekturen wirft eine Vielzahl von Forschungsfragestellungen aus den Gebieten der Softwaretechnik, der Systemmodellierung und -analyse, sowie der Adaptierbarkeit und Integration von Applikationen auf.
Komponentenorientierung und WebServices sind zwei Ansätze für den effizienten Entwurf und die Realisierung komplexer Web-basierender Systeme. Sie ermöglichen die Reaktion auf wechselnde Anforderungen ebenso, wie die Integration großer komplexer Softwaresysteme.
Heute übliche Technologien, wie J2EE und .NET, sind de facto Standards für die Entwicklung großer verteilter Systeme. Die Evolution solcher Komponentensysteme führt über WebServices zu dienstbasierenden Architekturen. Dies manifestiert sich in einer Vielzahl von Industriestandards und Initiativen wie XML, WSDL, UDDI, SOAP. All diese Schritte führen letztlich zu einem neuen, Zielversprechenden Paradigma für IT Systeme, nach dem komplexe Softwarelösungen durchdie Integration vertraglich vereinbarter Software-Dienste aufgebaut werden
sollen.
„Service-Oriented Systems Engineering“ repräsentiert die Symbiose bewährter Praktiken aus den Gebieten der Objektorientierung, der Komponentenprogrammierung, des verteilten Rechnen sowie der Geschäftsprozesse und berücksichtigt auch die Integration von Geschäftsanliegen und Informationstechnologien.
Die Klausurtagung des Forschungskollegs „Service-oriented Systems Engineering“ findet einmal jährlich statt und bietet allen Kollegiaten die Möglichkeit den Stand ihrer aktuellen Forschung darzulegen.
Bedingt durch die Querschnittstruktur des Kollegs deckt dieser Bericht ein große Bandbreite aktueller Forschungsthemen ab.
