The dynamics of silence and remembrance in Australian writer Lily Brett’s autobiographic fiction Things Could Be Worse reflects the crisis of memory and understanding experienced by both first and second-generation Holocaust survivors within the diasporic space of contemporary Australia. It leads to issues of handling traumatic and transgenerational memory, the latter also known as postmemory (M. Hirsch), in the long aftermath of atrocities, and problematises the role of forgetting in shielding displaced identities against total dissolution of the self. This paper explores the mechanisms of remembrance and forgetting in L. Brett’s narrative by mainly focusing on two female characters, mother and daughter, whose coming to terms with (the necessary) silence, on the one hand, and articulated memories, on the other, reflects different modes of comprehending and eventually coping with individual trauma. By differentiating between several types of silence encountered in Brett’s prose (that of the voiceless victims, of survivors and their offspring, respectively), I argue that silence can equally voice and hush traumatic experience, that it is never empty, but invested with individual and collective meaning. Essentially, I contend that beside the (self-)damaging effects of silence, there are also beneficial consequences of it, in that it plays a crucial role in emplacing the displaced, rebuilding their shattered self, and contributing to their reintegration, survival and even partial healing.

Com o propósito de acompanhar a mudança da sociedade, em Portugal decorre a implementação de várias reformas entre as quais a da Administração Pública. Melhorar o serviço educativo prestado pelas escolas é condição essencial para o aumento da qualificação dos alunos. A Avaliação e a Auto Avaliação (AA) do desempenho da escola tornam-se cada vez mais importantes no sentido de acompanhar e garantir a evolução e o progresso do sistema educativo. Desta forma, torna-se imprescindível uma reflexão sobre os procedimentos desenvolvidos que visam suprir as necessidades das escolas. Este projeto de investigação, no âmbito do Mestrado em Ciências da Educação, especialização em Administração Escolar, tem como finalidade dar o seu contributo para esse debate, através da apresentação e discussão dos resultados de dois ciclos avaliativos, tendo sido aplicado, o modelo CAF (Common Assessment Framework). Neste sentido, pretendeu-se averiguar de que forma a AA (Auto Avaliação) contribui para o processo global de gestão da escola. Fazendo recurso à metodologia de estudo de caso, num Agrupamento de Escolas no interior do país, utilizou-se o paradigma qualitativo para a recolha de dados. Pela análise dos dados foi possível concluir que a aplicação do primeiro ciclo de avaliação, através do desenvolvimento de processos de melhoria da qualidade de serviço prestado, influenciou o segundo ciclo avaliativo. Esta influência foi evidente na melhoria dos planos de ação para colmatar pontos negativos detetados no ciclo avaliativo anterior contribuindo, consequentemente, para a melhoria do processo de gestão da escola. Desta forma, a experiência adquirida, as alterações introduzidas, a convição dos órgãos de gestão da escola e de quase todas as pessoas que nela exercem a sua atividade permitem concluir que é imprescindível a autorregulação e que a mesma proporcionou benefícios que levaram à melhoria da qualidade de gestão da escola.

The evaluation appears as a natural process in which a professional education to build a notion of content assimilated by the students as well as whether the teaching methods adopted by him are having an effect on learning of these. Long meant, to apply only to evaluate evidence, a grade and classify students in approved and disapproved. Even today there are teachers who believe that assessment is only in this process. However, this vision has been gradually modified. The evaluation is not at the time of carrying out tests and checks, but is an ongoing process, aimed at reflection for error correction and forwarding the student to acquire the expected objectives. This study was designed to analyze the data from the result of the survey, we can see that the form evaluative functions as an element of integration and motivation for the teaching-learning process. The speech of most education professionals interviewed here reflects the current notion that the evaluation process is currently understood not only as the result of the tests, but the results of the work and / or research that students perform. There are numerous evaluative techniques that allow the teacher to evaluate student performance and escape the traditional written exam, allowing teachers and students to dialogue sought to find and correct possible errors by redirecting the student for learning, motivating for the correction, and suggesting to him new ways of study for better understanding of the issues addressed within the class. The key is to understand that the evaluation process is not just about taking exams and assign grade. Evaluation is a continuous learning process that occurs every day in order to correct mistakes and build new knowledge.
