The student-artist based tour: determining gallery teaching practice beneficial for an art museum tour centered on students as artists

Smith, Lindsey Scott 19 October 2010 (has links)
The purpose of this study is to provide the fields of art education and museum education with gallery teaching practice that uses students’ prior knowledge of art making as the means to guide interpretation of art in the museum. This study develops touring methods that maintain the identity of the student artists in the context of adult artists’ works in the museum. This investigation is an action-based research study of how a museum educator can develop touring practice to use art objects to enable students to think reflectively on their art making. The results of this study identify the characteristics of an art museum tour that is centered on students and art making. This study demonstrates a framework for teaching in the museum that incorporates constructivist learning theory, social and active learning, a concepts-based approach to art learning, and develops student cognition. / text

Smartphone physics – a smart approach to practical work in science education? : Experiences from a Swedish upper secondary school / Fysik med smarta telefoner - ett smart sätt att bedriva laborativ undervisning i naturvetenskap? : Erfarenheter från en svensk gymnasieskola

Svensson, Tomas January 2018 (has links)
In the form of teacher didactical design research, this work addresses a didactical issue encountered during physics teaching in a Swedish upper secondary school. A need for renewed practical laboratory work related to Newtonian mechanics is met by proposing and designing an activity based on high- speed photography using the nowadays omnipresent smartphone, thus bringing new technology into the classroom. The activity – video analysis of the collision physics of football kicks – is designed and evaluated by following a didactical design cycle. The work elaborates on how the proposed laboratory activity relates to the potential and complications of experimental activities in science education, as described in the vast literature on the topic. It is argued that the use of smartphones constitutes an interesting use of new technology for addressing known problems of practical work. Of particular interest is that smartphones offer a way to bridge the gap between the everyday life of students and the world of physics experiments (smartphones are powerful pocket laboratories). The use of smartphones also avoids using unfamiliar laboratory equipment that is known to hinder focus on intended content, while at the same time exploring a powerful tool for data acquisition and analysis. Overall, the use of smartphones (and computers) in this manner can be seen as the result of applying Occam’s razor to didactics: only familiar and readily available instrumentation is used, and skills learned (movie handling and image analysis) are all educationally worthwhile. Although the activity was judged successful, a systematic investigation of learning outcome was out of scope. This means that no strong conclusions can be drawn based on this limited work. Nonetheless, the smartphone activity was well received by the students and should constitute a useful addition to the set of instructional approaches, especially since variation is known to benefit learning. The main failure of the design was an overestimation of student prior knowledge on motion physics (and its application to image data). As a consequence, the activity took required more time and effort than originally anticipated. No severe pitfalls of smartphone usage were identified, but it should be noted that the proposed activity – with its lack of well-defined results due to variations in kick strength – requires that the teacher is capable of efficiently analysing multiple student films (avoiding the feedback process to become overwhelmingly time consuming). If not all student films are evaluated, the feedback to the students may become of low quality, and misconceptions may pass under the radar. On the other hand, given that programming from 2018 will become compulsory, an interesting development of the activity would be to include handling of images and videos using a high-level programming language like Python.

Integração curricular no ensino médio partindo da área de linguagens / Curricular integration in high school: perspectives on language and language arts

Souza, Fernando de Oliveira 17 September 2015 (has links)
O objetivo desta dissertação é investigar estratégias planejadas e implementadas para integrar os componentes curriculares do Ensino Médio partindo da área de Linguagens. Para tanto, o que se fez foi uma pesquisa de professor (Freeman, 1998). Optou-se por um desenho metodológico organizado em duas etapas consecutivas. Na 1ª etapa, de caráter bibliográfico e documental, pretendeu-se analisar as possíveis integrações já existentes dentro das disciplinas da área de linguagens e entre elas, em um contexto de Escola Técnica Estadual de São Paulo. Na 2ª etapa da pesquisa, de caráter empírico, o pesquisador participou como docente, introduzindo em suas aulas de Língua Portuguesa e Literatura, por meio de uma Sequência Didática, as integrações identificadas na 1ª etapa, a fim de analisar as percepções dos alunos acerca dessas integrações entre as disciplinas da área de Linguagens. Conclui-se que a integração curricular pode ter início com a postura do Docente em sala de aula. Muito além da abordagem interdisciplinar e transdisciplinar, o Professor pode partir do conteúdo a ser ensinado e ele mesmo estabelecer os pontos de contato com outras disciplinas. Finalmente, aponta que a pesquisa de professor colabora para profissionalização da carreira docente. E no caso específico da área de Letras, a partir da análise da presente pesquisa, indica-se que Literatura tem o potencial para ser um grande centro de integração curricular. / This dissertation aims to investigate planning and implemented strategies to integrate curricular components associated with Language and Language Arts in High School. To accomplish it, a teacher research (Freeman, 1998) was developed. The chosen methodological design was organized in two consecutive phases. The first one has a bibliographical and documental nature. It aimed to analyze integration which already existed within the curricular components and among them, in the context of a Technical School in São Paulo State. The second phase is empirical and the researcher took part as a teacher, introducing in his classes of Portuguese Language and Literature the identified integration of the first phase in order to analyze the students perceptions concerning subject matter integration within the Language area. In conclusion, curricular integration can start by the teachers attitude towards content inside the classroom. Beyond the interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approach, teacher can start by a specific topic that he needs to teach and establish relationships with other subjects and curricular components. Finally, this research shows that teacher-research collaborates to professionalization of teachers. Apart from that, specifically within Language courses, this research indicates that Literature has the potential to be a great center of curricular integration.

A inclusão de professores de ensino básico na pesquisa: um desafio institucional. / The inclusion of basic school teacher into research: an institucional challenge.

Guridi, Veronica Marcela 14 August 2007 (has links)
O problema da relação entre a docência e a pesquisa têm sido um tema amplamente discutido na literatura educacional. Desde os primórdios, com a concepção do professor pesquisador, até os tempos atuais, com as pesquisas colaborativas desenvolvidas tanto no Brasil quanto no exterior, têm surgido várias propostas para a superação da distância existente entre ser professor e ser pesquisador. Algumas dessas propostas acenam a possibilidade de pesquisar sobre a própria prática profissional, como uma tentativa de incorporar os saberes advindos da prática nas pesquisas desenvolvidas pelos professores. Nosso trabalho tem como objetivo analisar inclusão de professores no universo da pesquisa acadêmica em Educação em Ciências, através de uma disciplina chamada \"Introdução à pesquisa em Ensino de Ciências\", ministrada no programa de pós-graduação Interunidades em Ensino de Ciências da Universidade de São Paulo. A pesquisa tenta dar resposta à pergunta: Quais seriam as condições para a inclusão e o reconhecimento do professor no meio acadêmico? A hipótese que norteou o trabalho é que a inclusão do professor na disciplina pressupõe uma via de mão dupla: por um lado, os professores precisam incorporar progressivamente ferramentas e critérios da comunidade científica e por outro, a Academia, representada pelos responsáveis da disciplina, precisa flexibilizar os critérios tradicionais sobre o que é fazer pesquisa para que seja incorporado o genuíno interesse do professor em explorar os saberes de sua prática. Por essa razão, temos centrado a nossa análise nos casos de professores que desejam pesquisar a sua própria prática, por considerar que essa pode ser uma via possível de superação da distância entre a docência e a pesquisa. O referencial teórico foi construído a partir da interação entre os dados coletados e a bibliografia consultada sobre o assunto, derivando na definição de um conjunto de indicadores dos movimentos inclusivos realizados em ambas direções: o movimento do professor para ser incluído na disciplina e o movimento de inclusão realizado pela Academia. A metodologia utilizada na pesquisa foi qualitativa, sendo desenvolvido um estudo de caso junto a duas turmas de professores matriculados na disciplina, acompanhadas durante o semestre em que a disciplina foi ministrada. As técnicas de coleta de dados incorporaram a observação participante, o registro de observação das aulas em notas de campo, a coleta de documentos e o registro em vídeo de algumas aulas. Como técnicas de análise foram utilizadas a análise de conteúdo e a análise de documentos, além da reconstrução da história da disciplina. Foram analisados em profundidade os casos de seis professores que queriam pesquisar sua própria prática. Os resultados mostram que, apesar de haver diferenças nos processos inclusivos dos seis professores, todos eles experimentaram avanços nas suas aprendizagens vinculadas a habilidades e competências necessárias a um pesquisador. Nas conclusões argumentamos que quando determinados critérios da comunidade científica são flexibilizados e quando a Academia realiza esforços de tradução da linguagem acadêmica para a linguagem utilizada pelos professores, e vice-versa, esse processo de inclusão se vê facilitado. / The problem concerning the relationship between teaching and research has been a topic frequently discussed in educational literature. From the beginning, with the conception of teacher researcher, up to the actual times, with the proposal of collaborative researches, there have been several proposals developed in order to superate the distance between teaching and research. Some of these proposals link the possibility of school teacher research his own practice, as a attempt to incorporate his practical knowledge. Our works is intended to analyse basic school teachers´ inclusion on the universe of academic research in Science Education, through a course called \"Introduction to Science Teaching Research\", in the post-graduation programme at University of São Paulo, Brazil. The research is deveoped to answer the question: In which conditions the basic shool teacher should be recognized and included into the academical environment? Our hypotese is that the inclusion of basic school teacher can be understanding through two complemmentary aspects: on the one hand, teachers need to progressively incorporate tools and criteria of the scientific community and, on the other, Academy - represented by the teacher and monitors of the post-graduation course, needs to make mor flexible the traditional criteria related to the meaning of \"research\". For these reason, our analysis is centered on teachers who wish to research their own practice, because this could be a way for overhelming the distance between the two activities, teaching and research. Our theorethical framework was constructed by dialectic interaction between data and literature review. These framework is composed by a set of indicators that suggests movements in both directions: the basic school teacher movement in order to be included into the course and the movement of Academy in order to inlcude this teacher. The methodology was qualitative. A case study was realized in two of the three groups of teachers registered on the post-graduation course in 2004. Data collection techniques included participant observation, registers in field notes, document collection and video records of some classroom episodes. Some techniques of data analyse were: content analysis and document analysis. A reconstruction of the history of the course was an intermediate phase in the process of data analysis. The cases of six basic school teachers, all of them researchers of their own practice, were analysed more deeply. Results shows that in spite of the differences in the inclusion processes of these six teachers, all of them have registered some progress in their learning processes, adquiring some basic habilities typical of researchers. In the conclussions, we argue that when some scientific criteria become more flexible and when Academy make some efforts to translate the language used by teachers into scientific language and to translate the scientific language into a language more comprehensible for teachers, the inclusion process is facilitated.
