In my essay I'm studying what aspects of the school environment that influences the pupils experience of safety and what aspects that strengthens the experience of safety. I'm introducing three different dilemmas from three different places in the school environment. The three dilemmas have that in common that they focus on safety. I'm introducing the after-school centre commission according to the National Agency for Education, presenting results and theories from various researchers and authors about how you can work with safety regarding children's development and learning. My conclusion is that safety is a very important aspect when it comes to learning and for the overall development of children. The safety is affected by both the social environment and interaction between pupils and the relationship between the child and the pedagogue. It is also important that everybody that works in a school organizes their work in such a way that the pedagogical environment of the children is safe and secure. My conclusion is also that the pedagogues play an important role in the development of the pupils. In particular by offering safety, notably for the children that lack that in their home environment. Close ties, stability, yardsticks and working with social skills should be a part of the everyday life in a school environment.

The purpose of this study was to determine the various values that can be found in teachers of an open school system and how those values differed among various teacher groups within the school. The value systems (Tribalistic, Egocentric, Conformist, Manipulative, Sociocentric, and Existential) were based on the "Levels of Psychological Existence" developed by Clare W. Graves. A values test was utilized in order to collect data. The "Values for Teaching Test" was administered to 492 teachers and staff members of the school district. Specific hypotheses regarding value differences in selective teachers and staff groups were tested. The results were significant on the following levels-- existential, sociocentric, and conformist with relation to grade level taught, educational job profile, and sex of the respondent.

This practitioner research study uses qualitative data collection and analysis methods to explore student engagement with critical and multimodal literacy curriculum in the context of a writing course focused on storytelling. This research addresses the issue of deficit framing in schools serving Youths of Color and the negative characterizations that lead to assumptions about their learning capability based upon their racialized identity. As a result of these deficit discourses, Youths of Color are often positioned as at risk by educators, an assumption which often results in schools that lack intellectually robust and culturally relevant learning opportunities. In an effort to surface and disrupt deficit discourses, I looked to literacy theories such as critical, multimodal, and community literacies, which seek to expand the literacies valued in schools serving youth of color. To frame my inquiry, I asked: (1) What are students’ perspectives and inquiries regarding race, class, gender, and other social framings, and how do these change over time? and (2) How does this research inform my growing understanding of what it means to teach well? Over the course of one school year, I engaged with a group of 10 students in a school labeled as “in need of improvement” in a critically focused, multimodal storytelling curriculum designed to allow student interest and engagement with social issues as a guide for planning learning experiences. By collecting and analyzing student artifacts, discussion transcripts, interview data, and correspondence surrounding critical incidents over the course of the school year, I found that students used storytelling practices to critique social issues in both the surrounding city and the school community, displaying a plethora of Community Cultural Wealth which disrupts assumptions about Youths of Color. Despite this evidence of student Cultural Wealth, I found that the school culture was not a Culturally Sustaining atmosphere due to the over-reliance on compliance to district reform plans strictly aligned to discourses of standardization and accountability. These findings bridge the theory practice gap to help inform administrators, educators, and researchers alike by displaying the extensive daily effects societal education discourses have on students’ day-to-day educational experiences.

[pt] Este trabalho situa-se no contexto das pesquisas que investigam as instituições escolares consideradas de excelência. Objetivou identificar o clima de uma escola de prestígio, orientado pelas características das escolas eficazes. Pretendeu articular as dimensões macro e micro, que permitissem uma aproximação à singularidade da instituição. Na primeira parte foram construídos perfis de alunos, pais e professores, a partir de um survey realizado pelo SOCED - Grupo de Pesquisa em Sociologia da Educação da PUC-Rio, do qual participo, na pesquisa Processos de Produção de Qualidade de Ensino, da qual constam nove escolas consideradas pela mídia, como algumas das melhores da cidade do Rio de Janeiro. Na segunda parte, foi realizado um trabalho de campo, buscando um olhar mais próximo, que apontasse as peculiaridades e as razões de sua distinção no universo pesquisado. O clima escolar da instituição, recorte específico desta pesquisa, parece decorrer, principalmente, da forma como se articulam os recursos disponíveis, a partir do engajamento e a predisposição da maioria dos agentes escolares, para superação das dificuldades, e o fortalecimento das equipes. / [en] This study finds itself in the context of other similar investigations dealing with school institutions considered of superior quality. It was aimed at identifying the general atmosphere of a prestigious educational institution, emphasizing the characteristics of such efficient organizations. It attempted to articulate both macro and micro perspectives, which would then allow us to narrow down the singularity of this institution. During the first half of the study, student, parent and staff profiles were built based on previous research conducted by SOCED - Research Group in Education Sociology from PUC- Rio, which I am part of, titled Teaching Quality Production Process, where nine institutions, crowned by local media as some of Rio de Janeiro s finest schools, were included. During the second half, a field research was conducted attempting to take a closer look at some of the peculiarities and reasons that set this institution apart from others in the same researched universe. The institution s school climate - the specific focus of this research - seems to be the result of how available resources are articulated, and triggered by the engagement and the predisposition of the majority of the school agents to overcome dificulties and strengthen its teams.

A temática do Ambiente Escolar para a Infância vem recentemente ganhando mais espaço e tendo reconhecida sua importância na discussão sobre o desenvolvimento infantil. No entanto, as características físicas destes ambientes continuam sendo geralmente negligenciadas no planejamento de espaços infantis coletivos. Atendidas as necessidades mínimas e cumpridas as exigências de segurança, acessibilidade, manutenção, etc., faz-se necessário projetar além da funcionalidade, da praticidade e da usabilidade, concebendo o ambiente não apenas como pano de fundo ou cenário para a interação, mas como estrutura de oportunidades para a aprendizagem. Questiona-se aqui a usual primazia do espaço em detrimento do ambiente, feita tanto por parte de arquitetos como de educadores, entendendo a complexidade como um aspecto fundamental no desenvolvimento de projetos ambientais escolares. / Although the discussion on the significance of School Environment for the child development has gained importance, the physical aspects of these environments are still neglected when they are planned. Once basic needs are supplied and security, accessibility and maintenance demands are fulfilled, environments should be developed not as merely backdrops to children interaction, but as structures of opportunities for the process of learning (taking into account more than functional and practical issues). In this work, the usual supremacy of space over environment (commonly granted by architects as much as by educators) is called in question, while the concept of complexity is presented as an essential aspect on the development of school environment projects.

Este trabalho investiga o papel do diretor escolar na formação de uma cultura escolar inclusiva tendo como base teórica a psicologia sócio-histórica de Vigotski. Investigaram-se os conceitos de cultura escolar, educação inclusiva e ambiente inclusivo, de forma a estabelecer a importância do contexto da escola na inclusão escolar de alunos com deficiência, bem como o conceito de gestão escolar, com foco na atuação do diretor. Como hipótese de pesquisa, considerou-se que a opinião pessoal, aspirações, atitudes, concepção de educação, compromisso ético-profissional, enfim, os aspectos idiossincráticos do diretor influenciam de maneira decisiva a forma como se constitui a cultura escolar e facilitam ou dificultam a implantação da inclusão escolar de alunos com necessidades educacionais especiais. Propõe-se que isso se deva em grande parte à liderança e autoridades conectadas ao papel central que o diretor exerce na instituição escolar, bem como se relaciona com as dificuldades que a democratização dos processos de gestão escolar encontra para uma atuação efetiva. O papel do diretor enquanto um articulador do projeto pedagógico sobre o qual deve estar apoiado o projeto da escola tornar-se inclusiva seria então fundamental. A pesquisa busca estabelecer uma relação entre a democratização da escola e a implantação de uma cultura escolar inclusiva, através da atuação do diretor escolar. O trabalho apresenta-se como um estudo de caso, tendo sido utilizados como procedimentos de pesquisa o relato de experiência, a análise documental e a entrevista com uma diretora escolar. Como resultados, concluiu-se que a democratização da gestão e a educação inclusiva se relacionam de forma importante, sugerindo-se que uma escola inclusiva é, antes de tudo, uma escola democrática. Propõe-se investir na produção de contextos escolares que favoreçam a construção de práticas democráticas, bem como que os sistemas educacionais assumam sua importante cota de responsabilidade nesta tarefa. / The present work investigates the school principal´s role into the formation of an inclusive schooling culture. The approach is theoretically based on Vigotski´s social-historical psychology. The research includes the concepts of school culture, inclusive education and inclusive environment, as a way of establishing school´s context relevance to school inclusion of students with special needs, and the concept of school management focusing the principal´s action towards inclusion. It was taken as research hypothesis that the principal´s idiosyncratic qualities, such as personal opinions, aspirations, education concept, ethical and professional commitment exert decisive influence on how the school culture is constituted, which facilitates or not school inclusion of students with educational special needs. It is proposed that this might be largely due to leadership and authority, connected to the central role of the principal at the school institution, as well as to difficulties to accomplish an effective democratization of the school management processes. The principal´s role as an articulator of the pedagogical project, on which the school project of being inclusive must be supported would be then fundamental. The research aims to establish relationships between the school democratization process and the implantation of an inclusive school culture, through school principal´s action. The research was conducted as a case study, applying as its procedures the researcher´s report, the documental analysis and an interview with the principal of the school. Results favored the conclusion that the management democratization process and the inclusive education are related in a very important way, suggesting that an inclusive school is, above all, a democratic school. It is proposed that it is important to invest into the production of school contexts that promote the construction of democratic actions, as well as it is relevant that the educational systems take responsibility of its role in this task.

E para responder a essa questão, necessitou analisar os mecanismos existentes referente à política do branqueamento e suas interferências nos processos de identidade dos afrodescendentes numa perspectiva de pertencimento multicultural em Boa Vista-Roraima. Em que o referido estudo tem como aportes teóricos Antonio Gramsci, Florestan Fernandes, Kabengele Munanga, Stuart Hall, José Ivo Follmann, Néstor García Canclini e Zygmunt Bauman. Mediante a análise dos documentos e as falas dos participantes nas instituições envolvidas na pesquisa, foi constatado nesse sentido que o ambiente educacional escolar, ressalta as representações simbólicas e conceitos construídos socialmente representados por meio dos signos e da linguagem, a identidade e as diferenças afrodescendentes no contexto temporal em Boa Vista/Roraima, contidas nas relações sociais, que ainda tenta prevalecer a hegemonia branca. / This research highlights the process of Afrodescendant identity, within the framework of the formal educational process, starting from the following question, how does the construction of Afrodescendant identity in a perspective of multicultural belonging in the social context of Roraima take place? In order to answer this question, it was necessary to analyze the existing mechanisms regarding the money laundering policy and its interference in the identity processes of Afro-descendants in a perspective of multicultural belonging in Boa Vista-Roraima. In this study, Antonio Gramsci, Florestan Fernandes, Kabengele Munanga, Stuart Hall, José Ivo Follmann, Néstor García Canclini and Zygmunt Bauman are the theoretical contributions. Through the analysis of the documents and the speeches of the participants in the institutions involved in the research, it was found in this sense that the school educational environment emphasizes the symbolic representations and socially constructed concepts represented through signs and language, the identity and the Afrodescendent differences in the Temporal context in Boa Vista / Roraima, contained in social relations, which still tries to prevail white hegemony.

Discute-se a temática da redução e prevenção da violência no ambiente escolar à luz da teoria dos autores: Zygmunt Baumam e Sergio Francisco Carlos Graziano Sobrinho que contribuem com seus estudos para adiscussão sobre a relação neoliberalismo/violência e os reflexos na formulação das iniciativas públicas de redução e prevenção da violência. A pesquisa é qualitativa, e utilizam-se como instrumentos de coleta de dados fontes documentais e questionário aberto, e a abordagem ancora-se em Maria Cecília Minayo. O estudo aponta para a projeção do pensamento neoliberal na formulação das iniciativas públicas de redução e prevenção dos conflitos e da violência no ambiente escolar mato-grossense, sendo que no período de 2003 a 2010 a SEJUSP delineou ações para as escolas, desenvolvendo projetos e programas sociais e educacionais que consolidaram a presença de agentes de segurança pública nos estabelecimentos de ensino com a justificativa de proteger os atores e manter a ordem daqueles classificados pela escola e a sociedade como mal-educados, problemáticos e desajustados. Embora convocasse a sociedade para discutir o problema da violência no ambiente escolar, a SEDUC teve participação secundária na elaboração das estratégias de segurança, as quais foram definidas sob o prisma da SEJUSP, mesmo que as manifestações ocorridas em ambiente escolar não fossem caso de polícia. Os projetos, programas e ações originárias da SEDUC voltados à redução e prevenção da violência no ambiente escolar tiveram desenho policial quando deveriam ser ações pedagógicas e educacionais. / This study presents the principles, guidelines and educational guidelines and/or security that have guided the policies of reducing and preventing violence in the school environment; identify alliances, models, speeches and underlying concepts that underpin the rapprochement between the Secretaria de Estado de Educação (SEDUC) and the Secretaria de Estado de Justiça e Segurança Pública (SEJUSP) of Mato Grosso. It discusses the theme of reducing and preventing violence in the school environment according to the theory of authors: Zygmunt Baumam and Sergio Francisco Carlos Graziano Sobrinho, which contribute with their studies for the discussion about the relationship of neoliberalism/violence and reflected in the formulation of public initiatives for reducing and preventing violence. The research is qualitative and used as data collection instruments, documentary sources and open questionnaire, the approach is anchored in Maria Cecilia Minayo. The study points to the projection of the neoliberal thought in the formulation of public initiatives of reduction and prevention of conflicts and violence in the school environment of Mato Grosso, in the period of 2003 to 2010 the SEJUSP outlined actions to schools, developing social and educational projects and programs that strengthened the presence of public safety officers in educational establishments with the justification to protect the actors and keep order of those whose were classified by the school and society as impolite,problematic and misfits. Although it had called society out to discuss the problem of violence in the school environment, SEDUC had secondary participation in drafting the security strategies, which were defined on the prism of SEJUSP, even the situations that happened in school environment weren't police case. Projects, programs and actions originating of SEDUC directed to prevention of violence in the school environment had police drawing when should be educational and pedagogical actions.

We start from the premise that the subjects that relate in this environment are implicated subjectively on them and are meanings (concepts the affections) that are factors that make up this environment. Our study took this aspect as important and sought to give visibility to subjective dimension of the school environment, whereas the social inequality that characterizes our society. So we try to understand if there are differences in between school environments of public and private schools in the city of São Paulo. participants are students of each elementary school II series aged between 11 and 14 years, four male and four female frequented by poor and middle class. In each school unit formed a group and carry out interviews that were recorded and transcribed in full. The data generated were grouped and analyzed according to model Aguiar and Ozella (2006) call center for meaning; These analyses enabled us to identify the meanings constructed by the subject about their experiences in the school environment, pointing out that, although they are different environments and there are differences, we find approaches in these meanings / A partir da noção de ambiente escolar caracterizada pelas interações estabelecidas entre os sujeitos que o constituem, o presente estudo, fundamentado nos pressupostos teóricos da abordagem sócio-histórica, investigou como esse ambiente foi vivenciado pelos alunos, ou seja, que manifestações afetivas e significações estiveram presentes em suas vivências e como se relacionaram com o processo de ensino-aprendizagem. Partimos da premissa de que os sujeitos que se relacionam nesse ambiente estão implicados subjetivamente nele e estabelecem significados (noções e afetos) que são fatores que constituem esse ambiente. Nosso estudo tomou esse aspecto como importante e buscou dar visibilidade à dimensão subjetiva do ambiente escolar, considerando a desigualdade social que caracteriza nossa sociedade. Assim, buscamos entender se há diferenças entre ambientes escolares de escolas da rede pública e privada de ensino, na cidade de São Paulo. Os participantes são alunos de cada série do Ensino Fundamental II, freqüentados pela classe pobre e média alta, com idades entre 11 e 14 anos (quatro alunos do sexo masculino e quatro do sexo feminino). Em cada unidade escolar formou-se um grupo e realizamos entrevistas que foram registradas e transcritas, na íntegra. Os dados produzidos foram agrupados e analisados de acordo com o modelo que Aguiar e Ozella ( 2006) chamam de núcleo de significação; essas análises permitiram-nos identificar as significações constituídas pelos sujeitos sobre suas vivências no ambiente escolar, apontando que, embora sejam ambientes diferentes e haja diferenças, encontramos aproximações nessas significações

Data were collected between the months of March 2014 to February 2015. Clinical data were recorded in a specific record, subsequently built a database. To verify the relationship and distribution of their frequencies between variables we used the chi-square test and Fischer's exact test. The significance level for all tests was α ≤ 0.05 to 95% confidence interval.The total number of schoolchildren covered by the survey was 930 and 393 schoolchildren aged 6-21 years. Pediculosis and Vesicolor pityriasis were the most prevalent infectious skin diseases. It was observed that pediculosis was more frequent in females. Acne vulgaris is the most frequent in the age group 13-21 years. While Pediculosis and vesicolor pityriasis were more frequent in the age group 6-12 years. Despite the proximity of industries with the schoolchildren housing, morbid conditions were not identified and it can be attributed directly to industrial pollutants. / Estudo transversal, analítico com abordagem quantitativa, com o objetivo de determinar a prevalência de dermatoses em escolares na Vila Maranhão, no município de São Luís, Maranhão. Os dados foram coletados entre os meses de março de 2014 a fevereiro de 2015. Os dados clínicos foram registrados em ficha específica, sendo posteriormente, construído um banco de dados. Para verificar a associação e a distribuição de suas frequências entre as variáveis estudadas, utilizaram-se os Testes do qui-quadrado e o Exato de Ficher. O nível de significância para todos os testes foi de α ≤ 0.05 e intervalo de confiança de 95%. O total de escolares cobertos pela pesquisa foi de 930, sendo avaliados 393 escolares com idade entre seis a 21 anos. Pediculose e pitiríase versicolor foram as dermatoses infecciosas mais prevalentes. Observou-se que a pediculose foi estatisticamente mais frequente no sexo feminino. A Acne Vulgar foi mais frequente na faixa etária de 13 a 21 anos. Enquanto que a pediculose e a pitiríase vesicolor foram mais frequentes na faixa etária de seis a 12 anos. Apesar da proximidade das indústrias com a moradia dos escolares, não foram identificadas condições mórbidas que possam ser atribuídas diretamente a poluentes industriais
