Thesis (MPhil (Information Science))--University of Stellenbosch, 2005. / The incidence of referencing errors in research is difficult to manage due to the many types of bibliographic sources that have to be referenced. Preventing referencing errors is an essential part of bibliographic management and PBMS (Personal Bibliographic Management Systems) have been designed to manage this. To design appropriate strategies for preventing the errors, the prevalence of PBMS usage in higher education needs to be investigated. The aim of the research was to determine whether available PBMS used at institutions would address the referencing errors at a UoT (University of Technology), and to recommend a suitable PBMS for the institution. The main research instruments used to gather data consisted of questionnaires, interviews and a head-to-head comparison of five PBMS programs EndNote, ReferenceManager, ProCite, Biblioscape and B3. Researchers in the Faculty of Business were selected because they highlighted the difficulties with referencing errors. Questionnaires were sent to 10 researchers to investigate their awareness of PBMS, the kinds of bibliographic sources they use and the frequency that they reference the sources. A questionnaire, sent to eight libraries in the country ascertained their use of PBMS and whether PBMS reduced referencing errors. These libraries provided a representative sample of the use of PBMS at both historically “White” and “Black” institutions. A questionnaire to editors of journals and an online database investigated the incidence of referencing errors in academic publications and measures to prevent the errors. An interview with a vendor of PBMS revealed the extent of PBMS sales to higher education institutions and the capabilities of the PBMS. A head-to-head comparison, using selected criteria relevant to the study, was done of the five PBMS. The response rate on the questionnaires was 100%. Researchers indicated that they were not aware of PBMS, and were therefore not using any. In higher education, the majority of the libraries used PBMS, and these libraries reported that PBMS had reduced referencing errors. Editors responded that papers submitted for publication do contain referencing errors, but that adherence measures such as peer reviews, referencing guidelines and academic accreditation prevented referencing errors in published research. Data from all the research instruments led to the recommendation of using a combination of two PBMS programs at the UoT. The study has shown that there are software programs available to reduce referencing errors in research at the UoT, through the use of PBMS.

Annotation The diploma thesis focuses on problems and diagnostics of selected pre-concepts of technical education. The theoretical part is divided into several thematic units relating to constructivism, pre-concepts and technical education at primary school. In the practical part there are investigated affective and cognitive level of selected pre-concepts by questionnaire. Afterwards it was evaluated standard of integration of one pre-concept where the cognitive maps were used. The respondents were the pupils of 4. and 5. classes of primary school ZŠ Grünwaldova in České Budějovice.

The theoretical part of the thesis is devoted to the project methodology and processes information about technical education as a full-fledged subject of the first primary school. The final part of the theoretical work is focused on ten technical monuments from Klatovy that were applied in the creation of educational projects. In the practical part of teaching are developed individual projects that are designed for first grade elementary school. The projects also includes the information base for teachers. Conclusion the practical part is devoted indicative verification project method to use at the elementary school.

In this sense the study was exploratory, descriptive and qualitative approach, adopting the design of bibliographic and documentary, with analysis of the Pedagogical Policy Project (PPP), Matrix Curriculum, teaching plans and curriculum Lattes of the aforementioned course teachers. By analyzing the political dimension there was the intention to form a citizen who, guided by the social policy paradigm SUS, act fully, reflective, human, ethical, critical and transformative. Regarding the educational dimension, evidence of a theoretical relationship and dichotomous practice, curriculum organized by subject, more hours available to essentially technical subjects, choice of technologic contents, focusing on tasks, focusing on the sick individual, a reductionist perspective and fragmented assistance, showing thus the persistence of the biomedical model. Therefore, it is concluded that the pedagogical dimension has no consistency with the political dimension established in the PPP, ie there is a discrepancy between the purposes of training and curriculum and methodological organization. As for the teacher profile, it was concluded that nurses are specialized, professional exercise brief time in health care, starting the trend in education, lecturing in exclusive dedication, most without educational and training included in the post graduate studies. It argues that the lack of pedagogical training of teachers was formed as a limiter for the process of developing a coherent pedagogical dimension to the political dimension. The current context is thought, with the inclusion of most teachers in strict post-graduate, as conducive to overcoming these challenges, in which the reflection and analysis of praxis can guide one deconstruction of concepts, meanings, construction and ( re) configuration of knowledge, dialogue with social issues, in different orders policy, breaking with the instrumentalist and technicist character, leading to the structuring of a professional identity committed to a comprehensive education, providing a health care facing the human being their subjectivity and to assume the ethical and political commitment to reflect, (re) knowing the reality in which it operates. Thus, it is necessary to establish times and spaces of collective reflection, considering the reality and relying on the same routes to be followed in the ongoing process of reinvention of work and ways of learning, teaching and care.

This diploma thesis deals with the issues and the diagnostics of preconceptions relating to technical education. The theory is focused on the process of learning, constructivist pedagogy, content of technical education for the first grade of primary schools and methods of data collection in educational research. In the practical part investigates grades of integration of preconceptions using questionnaires and cognitive maps. In the practical section provides information about the performed research, processing results and the conclusions drawn from them. The respondents were pupils of 4th and 5th grade of elementary school Nuselská in Havlíčkův Brod.

The diploma thesis is focused on hand metalworking in Technical Education, which is taught at Upper Primary School, in 6th and 7th classes. Content and range of this thesis is adapted for pupils of 6th and 7th class at Primary School. The work includes descriptions of particular training of hand metalworking supplemented by author's photographic material. There are fourteen videos as a multimedia material in the appendix. The created videos contain demonstrations of technique of hand metalworking which are mentioned in the thesis. This created multimedia material could be used not only by pupils in the lesson of Technical Education but also by uncertificated teachers, who taught this subject.

At the beginning of the theoretical part the objects and tasks of the theses are defined. There are also described the teaching methods of project teaching at the primary schools. History of ceramics from all over the world from the Neolithic period is an integral part of the theoretical part. The forming techniques, modeling, glazing and burning techniques are described as well. In the practical part ten ceramics themes to the project teaching at the first grade of primary school are designed. There is a didactic documentation for teachers for each theme.

This diploma thesis is focuses on using technical monuments in České Budějovice region in primary school education. The theoretical part mentions the main principals, aims and the possibilities of using of project teaching methods in primary school. This thesis also deals with the technical education and the acquiring of the primary technical literacy. The final part of theoretical part describes technical monuments which were used in processed projects. The practical part of this thesis present 7 projects, which can be used in primary education. The part of thesis is also the evaluation of the research among teachers about the effectiveness of projects.

Esta dissertação aborda a problemática da evasão na Educação a Distância, um fato crucial que afeta a maioria dos cursos na modalidade a distância. Observou-se a importância do diálogo para a permanência de um aluno em um curso nesta modalidade. O diálogo foi analisado sob uma perspectiva freireana e piagetiana. As interações realizadas ao longo do curso permitiram verificar quão importante é o diálogo para que um aluno continue fazendo parte de um curso ou disciplina na modalidade a distância.. Foram analisados diversos recursos que permitiam interações entre os atores do processo, enfocando-se cinco categorias que permitissem identificar a ocorrência de diálogo: cooperação, incentivo, eqüidade na relação, participação contínua e geração de conhecimento. Todas as interações foram analisadas, observando se as conversas mantidas entre os integrantes do curso podiam ser identificadas dentro de uma dessas categorias ou mais. Sempre que estas foram identificadas, aquela interação foi catalogada para posterior estudo. A participação contínua foi observada dependendo da quantidade de interações realizadas por um aluno, durante um determinado período. (Continua). Para abalizar o que se buscava, estudaram-se as interações entre os educandos de um curso na modalidade a distância, mediado pela web, utilizando o ambiente TelEduc. O curso escolhido para realizar a pesquisa foi desenvolvido entre junho e julho de 2003. Os alunos desse curso eram todos professores da Educação Profissional das Escolas Técnicas do Rio Grande do Sul. Com o estudo efetuado, pôde-se verificar que os alunos que tiveram participação efetiva no curso, em ocorrências de diálogo, foram os que concluíram ou, pelo menos, os que permaneceram mais tempo no curso. Os resultados encontrados apontam para a necessidade de diálogo entre educadores e educandos e entre os próprios educandos, a fim de gerar a motivação necessária para que um aluno se mantenha em um curso ou disciplina na modalidade a distância. Além disso, espera-se que este estudo possa contribuir para os mais diversos cursos nesta modalidade. / The present work investigates the evasion phenomenon in distance education as it has been affecting most of the courses offered under this mode. The interactions that took place throughout the course allowed us to see how important the dialogue is so that a student goes on making part of a course in distance education mode. The important role of the dialogue then, for maintening a student in a distance education course until its end was analysed based on the theories of Paulo freire and Jean Piaget. Several resources were then analysed under five categories for promoting the actors in the process to interact. The categories were: cooperation, incentive, fairness in the relation, continuous paticipation and knowlAE2e construction. All interactions were analized and labled under one or more of those five categories. The continuous participation was observed depending on the amount of interactions a given student had had in a given length of time. The course under investigation was carried out at Teleduc, being developed in June and July of 2003. The students were all teachers working at Technical Education at Technical Schools of Rio Grande do Sul. It was possible to check that the students with a more effective participation all long the course were the same students who concluded it or the ones who have remained for a longer time in the course before quiting it. The results show the need of the dialogue among teachers and students and among the students themselves, in a way that each students feels himself/herself more and more motivated for concluding a course in this diatance mode. We hope this study may contribute to other researches.
