Mathematics education in Colombia : How education in mathematics is conducted in a development country. / Matematikutbildning i Colombia : Hur matematikundervisning utförs i ett utvecklingsland.

Rundquist, Rebecka January 2016 (has links)
This study aims to examine the education in mathematics in Colombia and by examining a few cases aspires to describe how education in mathematics in Colombia can operate and which patterns that are common in those cases. This was actualized by using methodological triangulation at three schools in Colombia. The data collection methods that were combined were: observations, interviews with teachers, interviews with students and interpretation of national standards, as well as other essential documents used in mathematics education in Colombia. An analytic framework was created from prior studies that were conducted in Latin America and also from well known pedagogical research across the world. The results of the study were many and they indicated, inter alia, that the students, teachers and other employees had different views of the lessons and classes in mathematics. Furthermore, common concept within education – in mathematics and in general – appeared to be completely non-existent to every party.

Examining graduate skills in accounting and finance: The perception of Middle Eastern students

Osmani, M., Hindi, N., Al-Esmail, R., Weerakkody, Vishanth J.P. 2017 July 1927 (has links)
No / While many universities have implemented various initiatives and teaching and learning methods to embed the most indemand skills into their degree programmes, there is little evidence in the literature of students’ opinions and awareness of these skills. The purpose of this article is to assess, through an empirical study, students’ perceptions of the skills commonly identified in the literature as important for the field of accounting and finance. A total of 462 surveys were collected and analysed using the SAS statistical analysis tool. According to the findings, the most important graduate skills are communication skills, followed by analytical skills and self-management. The findings also reveal that the language of instruction is statistically significant for a few graduate skills, including interpersonal, planning and organization, communication, self-management and analytical skills. Age is statistically significant for critical thinking skills and gender is statistically significant for leadership, technological and communication skills. / NPRP under grant 7-1534-5-231 from the Qatar National Research Fund (a member of the Qatar Foundation)

Modelagem matemática com fotografias

Rocha, Josy January 2013 (has links)
Nesse trabalho, é investigada a percepção dos estudantes sobre a matemática presente em fotografias, bem como a possibilidade de utilização de fotos como instrumentos de aprendizagem. Analisamos (eu e os estudantes) fotos de monumentos históricos locais e de obras da Arquitetura de outros países. A Geometria foi abordada com um enfoque diferente do tradicional, cuja principal estratégia é a resolução de exercícios, adotando a repetição como técnica de transmissão do conhecimento. Ao contrário disso, no presente trabalho, a Modelagem Matemática foi adotada como estratégia de ensino, oportunizando e incentivando os estudantes a participarem do processo de construção do próprio saber. Com o objetivo de desmitificar a Matemática como ciência que produz resultados exatos, foi introduzida a ideia de erro, inerente às atividades experimentais. / In this work is investigated the students' perception about mathematics present in photographs, as well as the possibility of using photos as learning tools. We (I and the students) analyze photos from local historical monuments and buildings of the architecture from other countries. The geometry was approached with different focus from the traditional teaching, whose main strategy is solving exercises, adopting the repetition technique for knowledge transmission. Instead, in the present work, mathematical modelling was adopted as teaching strategy, creating opportunities and encouraging students to participate in the process of constructing their own knowledge. Aiming to demystify mathematics as the science that always produces accurate results, was introduced the idea of error, which is inherent to all experimental activities.

The choice for a qualitative case study has made possible the analysis of the answers to the questionnaires solved by teachers and students. Interviews made with the school headmaster have made possible the characterizing of the surveyed subjects profiles. Results have shown that both students and teachers conceptions lead to the representation of the evaluation as a way of checking the program content associated to the measure of the learning and present classyfing evaluation characteristics, privileging the quantifying of students learning. They also show the tendency the teachers have to using in their speech, nomenclatures that come close to progressist concepts concerning evaluation. However, students answers confirm the practice of reproducing the content that has been taught. The data leads to a portrait of the evaluation concept in a public school that may work as a reference to the study of similar realities. It is emphasizes that is necessary and important the accomplishement of a permanent critical study in order to consolidate basic concepts regarding the evaluation of school learning and a critical reflexion of students, parents, teachers, employers and directors concerning pedagogic issues that surround the construction of knowledge. / O presente trabalho tem como foco o processo de avaliação da aprendizagem tal como é percebido por alunos e professores de uma escola pública do Estado de São Paulo. A opção pelo estudo de caso qualitativo possibilitou analisar as respostas dos questionários aplicados a professores e alunos. As entrevistas realizadas com os gestores da escola possibilitaram a caracterização dos perfis dos sujeitos pesquisados. Os resultados demonstram que as concepções dos professores e alunos convergem para a representação da avaliação como verificação do conteúdo programático associado à mensuração da aprendizagem e apresentam características de avaliação classificatória, privilegiando a quantificação da aprendizagem do aluno. Demonstram também a tendência dos professores de utilizarem, em seus discursos, nomenclaturas que se aproximam de conceitos progressistas a respeito da avaliação, porém as respostas dos alunos confirmam uma prática reprodutiva dos conteúdos ensinados. Os dados remetem a um retrato da concepção da avaliação da aprendizagem em uma escola pública que pode servir de ponto de referência para estudo de outras realidades próximas. Enfatiza-se a necessidade e importância de um trabalho crítico permanente a fim de consolidar conceitos básicos a respeito da avaliação da aprendizagem escolar e de uma reflexão crítica de alunos, pais, professores, funcionários e gestores a respeito de questões pedagógicas que envolvam a construção do conhecimento.
