This thesis posits that the scout camp can fruitfully be studied as a technological environment, more specifically as an infrastructure of the simple life. Mainly based upon periodicals, handbooks, still and moving pictures (from the Swedish boy scouts 1910–1930, but with international outlooks) it draws upon the Foucauldian notion of the apparatus (dispositif) as well as theory on modern infrastructure. Particular attention is payed to the role of work, leisure and community building at and around the camp site.       The simplification of the camp site – socially as well as technologically – was strategic in the sense that it enabled other goals and functions on a larger, societal level. To some extent it can also be seen as a critique of a growing complexity in modern life. A shared infrastructural sensibility finally grew out of the camp life, connecting scouts on a scale that stretched from the individual to the world.

La présente thèse situe un groupe de francophones en position minoritaire et suit son ascension et son affirmation sociale et culturelle dans une arène dominée par une identité anglo-saxonne. Nous avançons que les scouts qui faisaient partie de la 41e Notre-Dame, sous le contrôle de la Boy Scouts Association of Canada depuis sa fondation en 1918, ont d'abord été pris en main par le clergé ottavien. C'est après la fondation de la Fédération des scouts de la province de Québec par le Cardinal Villeneuve que les troupes ottaviennes sont devenues, tout comme toutes les troupes scoutes du Canada français, sujettes au noyautage de l'Ordre de Jacques Cartier (OJC). Le lien intime qui s'est développé entre les membres de l'OJC et les scouts d'Ottawa est un exemple concret de « groulxisme appliqué », thème utilisé par l'historien Michel Bock.

Podemos contar milhares de brasileiros que estiveram, em algum momento de suas vidas, envolvidos em Grupos Escoteiros (GE) e participaram das atividades Escoteiras que seguem um desenho pedagógico baseado no desenvolvimento de "competências" e "habilidades" atingidas a partir de um programa de méritos. As atividades, em geral, são realizadas ao ar livre, e temas associados a conteúdo das Geociências envolvem o "observar" e "(re)conhecer" os processos da dinâmica terrestre. Neste estudo avaliamos o referencial documental (livros, manuais, guias, etc.) obtidos junto à União de Escoteiros do Brasil - UEB; entrevistamos membros do ME; e identificamos nos eventos Escoteiros a aplicação de atividades que envolvam conteúdos de Geociências. Das avaliações realizadas propusemos roteiros de atividades que abordam conteúdos das Geociências, e elaboramos duas Especialidades que se inserem no sistema de progressão pessoal do ME e que se focam em conteúdos específicos dessa ciência / Abstract: The Scout Movement (ME) in Brazil, in spite of its long existence and the role it has played as non-formal education movement, has no study showing how the movement has been inserted in the training of thousands of children and young people throughout decades. We can count thousands of Brazilians who were, at some point in their lives, involved in Scouts Groups (GE) and participated in the Girl Scouts activities following a pedagogical design based on the development of "skills" and "skills" hit from a program merits. The activities generally are held outdoors, and topics related to content of Geosciences involve the "watch" and "(re) know" the processes of terrestrial dynamics. We evaluated the document reference (books, manuals, guides, etc.) obtained from the Scout Union of Brazil - UEB; interviewed members of the ME; and we identify Scout events enforcement activities involving Geoscience contents. Of assessments carried out activities proposed roadmaps that address the Geosciences contents, and prepare two specialties that fall within the personal progression of ME system and that focus on specific content of this science / Mestrado / Ensino e Historia de Ciencias da Terra / Mestra em Ensino e História de Ciências da Terra

In this day and age character and citizenship are being stressed by such societies and agencies as The Boy Scouts of America, The Camp Fire Girls, The Young Men's' Christian Association and the Young Women's Christian Association. In the scouting program all activities are of a voluntary process. There is an age requirement connected with the scouting program so that a youngster can look forward to the time when he will be twelve years of age and can become a scout. In the first place it is of major importance that the applicant assume it a privilege to become a scout. In the second place, when, in the course of a short ceremony inducting him into the troop, he takes the Scout Oath and repeats the Scout Law, he is made to feel that he is not merely on the threshold of things to do but of things to be. In the third place he finds that he shares with a group a code that is not so much his duty as his privilege to guard and keep. The influencing of one's character is a complex affair. Scouting does its part in helping boys to acquire good habits of conduct.

There is a need for supplemental reference material of an in-depth, specific nature to suggest methods of general application to the novice film director. Because film production is such a highly collaborative art, craft, and business with limited opportunities open to beginners, the novice director can benefit a great deal from the documented experiences of another. This study will provide insight into the practical role of the film director in motion picture production. In this way, this study can influence directorial practice in a positive manner by offering a forewarning of potential production challenges and help the novice to avoid similar pitfalls as well as to capitalize on any successes realized. This study will characterize some important attributes a director may find it helpful to develop in facilitating his work with artistic, technical, and administrative specialists. This study also suggests means by which a filmmaker can work with producers and clients in making a film for a specific persuasive purpose. In doing so, it will suggest possible methods of defining a film's intent, methods of realizing this intent through the various production phases of scripting, filming, and editing, and methods of evaluating the success in conveying the intent to the target audience.

Girl Scouting began in Utah in 1921 out of a desire of several wealthy women to help build the character of young girls in Ogden. Exhibiting many elements of the "social gospel" aspect of progressivism, they adopted the Girl Scout program which emphasized preparation for practical living, appreciation of nature, and development of character.Since the first troops were organized in Ogden, Girl Scouting slowly spread throughout the rest of the state, resulting in several Councils and Lone Troops. After responding to a call for consolidation from the National Girl Scout Council the Utah Scouts made a dramatic change in 1961 to a single Council: The Utah Girl Scout Council.Although growth in size has been fairly steady, the Girl Scouts have encountered the unique problem of dealing with a dominant religious community, the LDS Church, which has demonstrated ambiguous feelings about the Girl Scout program. Nevertheless, the Girl Scouts have played an important role in Utah's communities and have continued to grow and strengthen.

This study had two main purposes. Its first is to test the theoretical proposition that there is a carry-over into other systems of behavior as a result of group cohesion. For example, as scouting activities increased, Aaronic Priesthood activities increased. And according to the reference group theory, individuals join reference groups to fulfill certain needs, wants, goals, etc. In an active Boy Scout program many of these needs, wants, and goals are satisfied as the boys participate in the activities outlined by the Boy Scouts of America. Furthermore, once these needs are satisfied, change toward conformity tends to carry over into other systems of behavior.

El objetivo principal de esta tesis fue identificar y analizar las capacidades institucionales de la Asociación de Scouts del Perú (ASP) por medio de un diagnóstico organizacional y de esta manera, proponer acciones de fortalecimiento. Para la realización de este estudio se levantó información tanto a nivel primario como secundario a través de la lectura de documentos y la realización de entrevistas, cuestionarios y encuestas que permitieron conocer la percepción de los actores miembros de la ASP, tanto a nivel directivo como a nivel de voluntariado. Dicho trabajo de campo se realizó a nivel de todo el Perú poniendo énfasis en la sede central de Lima, debido a su gran concentración de voluntarios miembros de la ASP. En la primera parte se determina el marco teórico en el que se sustenta la tesis. La segunda parte de este trabajo describe el diseño de investigación utilizado. Una tercera sección corresponde a la presentación, análisis e interpretación de los datos recogidos. Dicha sección ha sido dividida en capítulos, cada uno de los cuales hace referencia a las capacidades organizacionales de: conducción, organizacional, comunicacional y de gerencia interna de recursos humanos de la ASP. Cada una de estas capacidades institucionales ha sido analizada según los indicadores establecidos para dicho análisis y se presentan los respectivos hallazgos encontrados durante la recolección de información. A continuación, en la cuarta parte se alcanzan las conclusiones finales sobre lo analizado. Finalmente, en las recomendaciones, se sugiere considerar la implementación de una propuesta de fortalecimiento de capacidades institucionales para la ASP. / Tesis

Ce mémoire porte sur le plus grand mouvement de jeunesse dans le monde actuel: le Mouvement scout, qui a célébré en 2007 son centième anniversaire. Dans le cadre d'un 21e rassemblement mondial qui eu lieu en Angleterre au mois de juillet 2007, près de 40 000 scouts provenant de 156 pays ont passé 12 jours ensemble, fidèles au thème de l'évènement: "Un monde, une promesse". Ils ont fait valoir, collectivement, un discours de paix imprégné de l'envergure et de l'effervescence d'un tel "rendez-vous" mondial. La recherche qui est présentée dans ce mémoire s'est penchée sur la nature du discours de paix construit lors de ce grand "Jamboree" scout.
