A universally delivered CBT based intervention in a Scottish secondary school: a pilot feasibility study

Objectives: To evaluate the feasibility of a universally delivered CBT-based programme for pupils within a Scottish secondary school setting. Design: A pre-post, within and between groups design was utilised. Setting: Religious Moral Citizenship and Education (RMCE) classes in a Scottish secondary school. Participants: Four (n = 103) classes of third year secondary school pupils were arbitrarily allocated to two conditions: RMCE-as usual (RMCE-AU) controls, and LLTTF intervention. Intervention: Living Life to the Full (LLTTF) is a series of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)-based booklets and accompanying 8 classes to improve coping skills. An adolescent version of LLTTF was recently developed. This was delivered over nine weeks by school teachers trained in the approach. Outcome measures: The Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire, Rosenberg Self-Esteem scale, General Self-Efficacy Scale, and Locus of Control scale were administered at baseline and 9 week follow-up. To determine acceptability and utility of the materials course feedback was gathered weekly from the intervention group and a focus group (n=5) was conducted at 3 month follow up. Results: Outcome measures showed no significant improvement in overall wellbeing of those in the intervention group compared with that of the control group. Weekly feedback suggested that the majority of pupils found the materials useful and relevant. Focus group feedback suggested that pupils found the intervention useful, had utilised strategies in everyday life and would welcome recurring provision of such interventions within the school setting. Conclusions: Universally delivered CBT intervention is acceptable and feasible within the secondary school environment. However, objective measurement using standardised tools does not adequately corroborate qualitative feedback from pupils. Issues relating to measurement, study design and implementation of future interventions are discussed.

A participação infantil no cotidiano da escola: crianças com voz e vez

A presente dissertação centra-se no estudo da participação infantil no cotidiano escolar, mais precisamente, das instituições de Educação Infantil. Para tanto, assumo como fundamental perceber a criança enquanto ator social, produtor de cultura e a infância como uma categoria social, geracional. O objetivo principal deste estudo é compreender quais as formas de participação de um grupo de crianças que compõe a turma de nível II, com 5 e 6 anos de idade, da Escola Municipal de Educação Infantil Tia Luizinha, a partir de suas manifestações no cotidiano escolar, buscando perceber quais são os momentos da rotina que as crianças percebem que participam, o que elas pensam sobre esses momentos e como os significam. Para tanto, o referencial teórico-metodológico utilizado para dialogar com esta investigação é oriundo da perspectiva da Sociologia da Infância (SARMENTO, 1997; 2000; 2007, CORSARO 2011, DELGADO, 2004; 2007), que percebem as crianças como sujeitos de direitos, capazes de participar/opinar sobre o meio no qual estão inseridas. Trata-se de uma pesquisa sobre o contexto escolar, cuja metodologia busca inspirações etnográficas, ou seja, é o cotidiano com as crianças, narrado por quem tornou-se ator desta pesquisa, juntamente com elas. Neste sentido, cabe ressaltar que é um processo investigativo COM crianças e não sobre elas. Os principais instrumentos metodológicos utilizados foram a observação, a escuta, os registros, os desenhos das crianças e suas falas. No tratamento dos dados que foram sendo gerados no percorrer da pesquisa, percebi a emergência de duas categorias de análise: a participação das crianças na RODA DE CONVERSA e no PÁTIO da escola. Neste sentido, estabeleço relação entre a infância e os espaços por elas escolhidos como sendo de maior participação, vindo a encontrar eco nos estudos da Geografia da Infância (LOPES, 2008). Foi possível perceber o quanto as crianças atribuem sentidos muito particulares aos espaços nos quais se inserem. A roda de conversa, configurava-se como um espaço/tempo dialógico do cotidiano, porém, ainda muito vinculada com a presença marcante do adulto-orientador. No pátio da escola, em especial, na pracinha, a participação infantil esteve intimamente relacionada a autonomia das crianças e as possibilidades de escolha que ali se apresentavam. Considero que os resultados deste estudo possam contribuir com as propostas pedagógicas das escolas da infância, no sentido acolher as manifestações das crianças, para assim, torná-las cada vez mais coautoras das ações pedagógicas.

Editorial

Welcome to a new issue of Libraries. This time, we include the contributions of several authors, both domestic and international, who contribute their ideas and approaches to further study of topics of great interest and importance in the daily work of the library profession.The Information Society, a term first used in the seventies and regain strength in the nineties, points to a new conception of society, where any person, company or group can access and share all kinds of information, no matter where or how.This can be achieved thanks to the emergence of new technologies and advanced information and communication technologies (ICT) that enable search, storage, processing, safeguarding and dissemination of information to any person who needs .

The joint European Research Infrastructure Network for Coastal Observatories: Achievements and Strategy for the Future

This document is summarizing a major part of the work performed by the FP7-JERICO consortium, including 27 partner institutions, during 4 years (2011-2015). Its objective is to propose a strategy for the European coastal observation and monitoring. To do so we give an overview of the main achievements of the FP7-JERICO project. From this overview, gaps are analysed to draw some recommendations for the future. Overview, gaps and recommendation are addressed at both Hardware and Software levels of the JERICO Research Infrastructure. The main part of the document is built upon this analysis to outcome a general strategy for the future, giving priorities to be targeted and some possible funding mechanisms, but also upon discussions held in dedicated JERICO strategy workshops. This document was initiated in 2014 by the coordination team but considering the fact that an overview of the entire project and its achievement were needed to feed this strategy deliverable it couldn’t ended before the end of FP7-JERICO, April 2015. The preparation of the JERICO-NEXT proposal in summer 2014 to answer an H2020 call for proposals pushed the consortium ahead, fed deep thoughts about this strategy but the intention was to not propose a strategy only bounded by the JERICO-NEXT answer. Authors are conscious that writing JERICO-NEXT is even drawing a bias in the thoughts and they tried to be opened. Nevertheless, comments are always welcome to go farther ahead. Structure of the document The Chapter 3 introduces the need of sustained coastal observatories, from different point of view including a short description of the FP7-JERICO project. In Chapter 4, an analysis of the JERICO coastal observatory Hardware (platforms and sensors) in terms of Status at the end of JERICO, identified gaps and recommendations for further development is provided region by region. The main challenges that remain to be overcome is also summarized. Chapter 5 is dedicated the JERICO infrastructure Software (calibration, operation, quality assessment, data management) and the progress made through JERICO on harmonization of procedures and definition of best practices. Chapter 6 provides elements of a strategy towards sustainable and integrated coastal observations for Europe, drawing a roadmap for cost-effective scientific-based consolidation of the present infrastructure while maximizing the potential arising from JERICO in terms of innovation, wealth-creation, and business development. After reading the chapter 3, for who doesn’t know JERICO, any chapter can be read independently. More details are available in the JERICO final reports and its intermediate reports; all are available on the JERICO web site (www.jerico-FP7.eu) as well as any deliverable. Each chapter will list referring JERICO documents. A small bibliographic list is available at the end of this deliverable.
