The purpose of this study was to examine whether English a Second Language (ESL) instructors’ ethnocentrism could be reduced using multicultural education (MCE) principles. There were three focus group discussions and a Likert scale questionnaire. The findings demonstrated that while ESL instructors were conscious of systemic barriers, media stereotypes, and bullying, more diversity training is required in order to improve teachers’ attitudes, responses, and instructional strategies regarding integration issues due to the increasing diversity of learners present in classrooms today. The findings of the study also demonstrated that MCE principles could be used to effectively raise the awareness of ESL instructors when dealing with integration and assimilation issues. When immigration, human rights, and multicultural policies were examined critically, ESL instructors were able to improve their cross-cultural skills in the classroom to be more inclusive towards diverse ethnic groups by giving learners greater opportunities to express themselves. As a result, learners’ knowledge, experience, and skills were validated in the classroom leading to a more meaningful learning experience.

Selon la théorie des buts d’accomplissement, il est possible que les attitudes et les pratiques pédagogiques des enseignants d’éducation physique influencent la motivation de leurs élèves. Dans cette étude, les objectifs étaient d’abord de documenter l’évolution annuelle de la motivation pour l’éducation physique au début du secondaire en considérant le sexe et le niveau scolaire et de vérifier ensuite la valeur prédictive des buts d’accomplissement induits par les enseignants d’éducation physique et de la perception de ces buts par les élèves sur la motivation de ces derniers, puis d’évaluer l’effet modérateur du sentiment de compétence et du sexe des élèves sur la valeur prédictive des buts d’accomplissement. Les résultats montrent qu’en général les filles sont moins motivées que les garçons dans leurs cours d’éducation physique et que cette motivation diminue avec l’âge, et ce, peu importe le sexe des élèves. Ensuite, nos résultats montrent que les attitudes et les pratiques pédagogiques des enseignants ainsi que la perception des élèves du climat induit par l’enseignant sont en mesure d’influencer certaines caractéristiques motivationnelles des élèves telles que l’adoption de buts de maîtrise et de performance-approche, la motivation intrinsèque, la motivation extrinsèque (par introjection et par régulation externe), l’amotivation et la valeur utilitaire que les élèves accordent à leurs cours d’éducation physique. Puis, il a été montré que la valeur prédictive des buts d’accomplissement et de la perception de ces buts par les élèves était modérée par le sentiment de compétence des élèves pour les variables motivationnelles suivantes : buts de maîtrise, motivation intrinsèque, amotivation et valeur utilitaire. Ainsi, les attitudes des enseignants, leurs pratiques pédagogiques et la perception du climat de classe n’ont une incidence significative que lorsque le sentiment de compétence des élèves est faible. La valeur prédictive des buts d’accomplissement et de la perception de ces buts par les élèves était aussi modérée par le sexe des élèves pour les variables motivationnelles suivantes : buts de performance-approche, buts de performance-évitement et amotivation. Quand le sexe des élèves modifie la relation, celle-ci est généralement inversée selon le sexe des élèves : elle est positive pour les garçons et négative pour les filles. Suite à cette étude, nous constatons que les enseignants d’éducation physique gagneraient à instaurer un climat de maîtrise tout en laissant place aux défis personnels des élèves et en insistant sur l’utilité de la tâche. Afin de répondre aux besoins particuliers de chacun des élèves, il serait intéressant de mettre en place des regroupements selon la compétence sportive des élèves. Ainsi, l’enseignant serait en mesure d’instaurer un climat motivationnel adapté.

En este trabajo me propongo analizar las creencias de un grupo de profesores de español como lengua extranjera acerca de la importancia de la enseñanza explícita de la pronunciación en una situación de inmersión y en qué medida estas creencias se ven reflejadas en su actuación en el aula. Tras hacer una revisión bibliográfica del estado de la cuestión llevaré a cabo una investigación en dos etapas: una primera fase de grabación de clases en audio para analizar el tratamiento de la pronunciación en el aula y una segunda fase de análisis de las creencias de los profesores que puedan fundamentar su actuación. Para mí lo fundamental será disponer de un buen punto de partida para ser capaz de formular un plan de acción formativa para los profesores de mi centro y para incorporar mejoras a nuestros cursos de formación de profesores. Pero esto será objeto de una investigación posterior.

RESUMO: Quando se fala em inclusão escolar torna-se primordial estudar as interacções que se estabelecem entre os alunos numa sala de aula, sendo essencial que estes tenham atitudes positivas nessas interacções (Roldão, 2007). Estas atitudes não aparecem subitamente numa criança, pelo que as atitudes demonstradas pelas escolas, pelos professores e pelos pais, são factores que influenciam as atitudes dos alunos perante os seus pares com deficiência. Objectivo: O presente estudo pretende analisar as atitudes dos alunos ditos “normais” face à inclusão dos seus pares com deficiência nas aulas de Educação Física, verificando se estas atitudes variam consoante o ciclo de escolaridade. Método: Participaram neste estudo 520 alunos que frequentam o 2º ciclo, 3º ciclo e secundário, com idades compreendidas entre os 10 e os 20 anos. O instrumento utilizado foi o questionário AID – EF (Leitão, 2011), para análise das atitudes dos alunos face à inclusão de alunos com deficiência nas suas aulas de Educação Física (EF). Resultados: Na globalidade, as atitudes dos alunos ditos “normais” face à inclusão dos seus pares deficientes nas aulas de EF, não variam consoante no ciclo de escolaridade (p=0,074). Ainda assim, nas seguintes variáveis verificou-se que: o grupo de alunos que frequenta o secundário manifesta significativamente atitudes mais positivas face aos inconvenientes da inclusão, em relação aos outros ciclos de escolaridade (p<0,001); quanto às atitudes dos alunos face à inter-ajuda / cooperação entre alunos com e sem deficiência, constatou-se que os alunos do secundário apresentam significativamente atitudes mais positivas (p<0,001); no que respeita às percepções dos alunos face às atitudes dos professores em relação à inclusão, verificou-se que existem diferenças significativas nos três ciclos de escolaridade, sendo que o 2º ciclo apresenta atitudes mais positivas, seguido do 3º ciclo e por fim o secundário (p<0,001); verificou-se ainda, que os alunos do 2º ciclo apresentam significativamente atitudes menos positivas face às atitudes que os seus pais têm em relação à inclusão de alunos com deficiência nas aulas de EF (p=0,002). Conclusões: Este estudo revela que na generalidade os alunos têm tendência para demonstrar atitudes positivas em relação à inclusão de alunos com deficiência nas aulas de EF, contudo ainda longe do esperado e desejado, sendo urgente e necessário que ocorra uma revolução de valores e atitudes na comunidade escolar.ABSTRACT: When it comes to school inclusion it becomes essential to study the interactions that take place among students in a classroom, it is essential that they have positive attitudes in these interactions (Roldão, 2007). These attitudes do not appear suddenly in a child, so the attitudes demonstrated by schools, teachers and parents, are factors that influence the attitudes of students towards peers with disabilities. Objective: This study aims to analyze the attitudes of students said "normal" face to the inclusion of peers with disabilities in physical education classes, ensuring that these attitudes vary according to the school cycle. Method: This study is based on 520 students that attend the 2nd cycle, 3rd cycle and secondary, ages between 10 and 20 years old. The instrument used was a questionnaire AID - EF (Leitão, 2011), to analyze the students attitudes towards the inclusion of students with disabilities in their physical education classes (EF). Results: Overall, the attitudes of students said "normal" face to the inclusion of peers with disabilities in PE classes, do not vary depending on the cycle of education (p = 0.074). Still, the following variables showed that: the group of students attending secondary, manifested significantly more positive attitudes to the disadvantages of including, in relation to other cycles of education (p <0.001). As for the attitudes of students towards interSupport / cooperation between students with and without disabilities, it was found that secondary school students have significantly more positive attitudes (p <0.001), with regard to students perceptions in relation to teachers attitudes regarding inclusion, it was found that there are significant differences in the three cycles of education, 2nd cycle students present more positive attitudes, followed by 3th cycle students and then secondary students (p <0.001)it was also found that students from the 2nd cycle have significantly less positive attitudes compared with those of their parents have in relation to the inclusion of students with disabilities in PE classes ( p = 0.002). Conclusions: This study shows that in general students tend to show positive attitudes towards the inclusion of students with disabilities in PE classes, but is still far from the expected and desired, it is urgent and necessary that we have a revolution of values and attitudes in school community.

As sociedades actuais caracterizam-se pela mudança, complexidade e diversidade cultural. De dia para dia assistimos cada vez mais à passagem das responsabilidades educativas da comunidade para a escola, assumindo esta, um papel preponderante na formação dos nossos jovens. O professor, é assim, considerado um elemento chave na construção de uma escola inclusiva e para que haja uma efectiva mudança da escola e das estratégias da sala de aula (Costa, 1999). O objectivo deste estudo é investigar as atitudes dos professores, determinando como estes percepcionam as suas Competências e de que forma essas atitudes são influenciadas, ou não, tendo em conta a experiência profissional, o grupo disciplinar a que pertencem, a experiência no ensino de alunos com deficiência e a formação inicial cujas áreas de estudo, estiveram directamente relacionados com a deficiência. A amostra deste estudo foi constituída por um total de 741 professores do ensino regular (534 afectos ao género feminino e 207 afectos ao género masculino). Foi aplicado o questionário APIAD – Atitudes dos Professores face à Inclusão de Alunos com Deficiência (Leitão, 2011), inferido através da resposta a 14 afirmações, em que cada uma delas deverá ser relacionado com 4 condições de deficiência (deficiência visual, deficiência auditiva, deficiência mental e deficiência motora). Concluiu-se então que, relativamente ao Grupo Disciplinar, as diferenças significativas se encontram entre os professores de Educação Física e os professores de Humanidades e de Ciências, sendo que os primeiros têm uma atitude mais positiva relativamente às suas competências. Quanto ao Contacto com a Deficiência, os resultados indicaram que os professores que têm experiência no ensino de alunos com deficiência têm uma atitude mais positiva relativamente às suas competências. No que se refere à Experiência Profissional, os nossos resultados encontram diferenças significativas entre os professores com menos anos de experiência e os professores com mais anos de experiência, sendo que os primeiros têm uma atitude mais positiva relativamente às suas competências Por último, em relação à Formação Inicial, os professores cujas áreas de estudo, na sua formação inicial, estiveram directamente relacionados com deficiência têm uma atitude mais positiva relativamente às suas competências. ABSTRACT: Today, societies are characterized by change, complexity and cultural diversity. Each day, we saw more and more responsibilities passing from the educational community to school, assuming that a major role in the formation of our youth. Teacher is considered a key element in the building of an inclusive school and for that there is a real change of school and classroom strategies (Costa, 1999). The purpose of this study is to investigate teacher´s attitudes, determining how they perceive their skills and how these attitudes are or aren´t influenced taking into account the professional experience, the subject group they belong to, the experience in students with those particular needs teaching and last, the initial training with chairs that had contact with people with needs. The study sample consisted in a total of 741 teachers of the regular education (534 allocated to the female and 207 assigned to the male gender). We used the questionnaire APIAD - Attitudes of teachers towards the Inclusion of Students with Disabilities (Leitão, 2011), inferred by the response to 14 statements, each one of them should be related to four conditions of disability (visual impairment, hearing impairment, mental retardation and physical disabilities). It was concluded then that for the Disciplinary Group, significant differences are found between the physical education teachers and teachers of Humanities and Sciences, and the former have a more positive attitude to their skills. How to contact the Disability, the results indicated that teachers who have experience teaching students with disabilities have a more positive attitude to their skills. With regard to professional experience, significant differences were found between teachers with fewer years of experience and teachers with more years of experience, and the former have a more positive attitude to their skills. Finally, regarding to initial training, teachers in their initial training formation who have contact with people with disabilities have a more positive attitude to their skills.

A inclusão de alunos com necessidades educativas especiais no ensino regular tem vindo a revelar-se um desafio tremendo para os professores, que têm tentado incluir as crianças com deficiência sem negligenciar as necessidades das crianças ditas normais. Os professores assumem, assim, um papel determinante na promoção da educação inclusiva, que está fortemente ligada às atitudes dos professores face aos alunos com necessidades educativas especiais. O objectivo deste estudo é então investigar as atitudes gerais dos professores, determinando o modo como estes percepcionam as vantagens da inclusão quer para os alunos ditos normais quer para os alunos com deficiência e perceber de que forma essas atitudes são influenciáveis, tendo em conta a experiência profissional, a experiência no ensino de alunos com deficiência e a formação inicial dos docentes. A amostra foi constituída por 640 professores do ensino regular (N=463 do género feminino e N=177 do género masculino). Foi aplicado o APIAD – Atitudes dos Professores face à Inclusão de Alunos com Deficiência (Leitão, 2011). Concluiu-se que os docentes com menos de 5 anos de serviço apresentam atitudes gerais mais favoráveis em relação à inclusão (p=0,000) e em relação às vantagens da inclusão para os alunos ditos normais (p=0,024), quando comparados com o grupo com mais de 10 anos de experiência. Quanto à experiência no ensino de alunos com deficiência, os resultados indicaram que os professores com experiência possuem atitudes mais favoráveis, do que aqueles que não têm experiência, quer gerais (p=0,000) quer face às vantagens da inclusão (p=0,023) quer ainda às vantagens da inclusão para os alunos com deficiência (p=0,013). No que se refere à formação inicial, os professores, com contacto com alunos com deficiência durante a sua formação, revelaram atitudes gerais mais positivas (p=0,000) do que os professores sem essa formação inicial, o mesmo acontecendo no que se refere às atitudes percepcionadas no que diz respeito às vantagens da inclusão (p=0,016) e às vantagens da inclusão para os alunos com deficiência (p=0,006)

This paper explores the place of aims in the early years foundation stage outdoor environment in England. Through examining the writing of academics, various themes are identified, and constructed into possible aims. These themes/aims are compared to an empirical study of early years teachers’ attitudes. Data was collected by questionnaire from schools within the University of Reading partnership. There was general agreement between experts and teachers as to the aims. While some respondents were able to explain what the aims of outdoor activity were, a significant number were unable to identify aims; further, a significant number did not distinguish between approach/practice and aims. A lack of understanding and agreement as to what the aims are may indicate teachers are unsure about the purpose of outdoor education for young children. A result of this study is to agree and make explicit the aims for outdoor education in the early years.

This article discusses teachers’ attitudes towards immigrant students in poor settings and the effect these attitudes have on organization of education on classroom level. It draws on results from two ethnographic studies where some primary school classes in Sweden were followed with participant observation and interviews as main research methods. The article focuses on classroom activities and teachers’ attitudes towards immigrant students and students with low socio-economic status. In the article is argued for the importance of presenting students in poor settings with demanding tasks and challenging education. In these cases, intellectually undemanding tasks in combination with little room for students’ own initiatives resulted in low enthusiasm among students regarding schoolwork and accordingly low learning, while classroom work that demanded active involvement by students in combination with high level of students’ influence on what took place in classrooms resulted in high level of students’ engagement and high outcome.

Syftet med detta arbete är att få en ökad insikt i vad svenska lärare har för attityder till arbete med sång, rim och ramsor i engelskundervisning för grundskolans tidigare år. Frågeställningarna är: 1. Vad har lärarna i studien för attityder till arbete med sång, rim och ramsor inom engelskundervisning? 2. Hur arbetar lärarna i studien med sång, rim och ramsor inom engelskundervisning? 3. Hur ser lärarna i studien på vikten av sin egen roll i arbetet med sång, rim och ramsor i engelskundervisning? I studien utfördes sex stycken semi-strukturerade intervjuer med lärare som arbetar eller nyligen arbetat med engelskundervisning för årskurserna F-3 i en mellanstor kommun i sydvästra Sverige. I resultatet framkom att det finns betydande skillnader i hur individuella lärare arbetar med och ser på arbete med sång, rim och ramsor. Även flertalet likheter framkom, som i sin tur liknade de resultat från tidigare forskning som tas upp i bakgrunden. Flera lärare har en mycket positiv attityd till arbete med sång, rim och ramsor i engelskundervisningen, men det råder stora skillnader i hur lärarna upplever det faktiska värdet för engelskundervisningen och elevernas språkutveckling. Hur lärarna arbetar med sång, rim och ramsor varierar också stort mellan olika lärare, men återkommande knöt lärarna dessa moment till de teman och övriga ämnen som behandlades i undervisningen. Gemensamt var också en bredd i material och medieringsmetoder, samt ett multimodalt arbete som ofta kombinerade ljud, bild och rörelser. Gällande lärarnas roll var de helt eniga i att lärarens engagemang och deltagande hade en stor inverkan på hur arbetet med sång, rim och ramsor mottogs av eleverna. Enligt intervjusvaren deltog alla lärarna i dessa moment, och lät sig inte hindras av faktorer som självförtroende eller bristande kunskaper. Som vidare forskning föreslås mer djupgående studier i lärares attityder, kombinerat med fältstudier och elevintervjuer, för att på så vis uppnå en mer heltäckande bild av arbete med sång, rim och ramsor i svensk kontext.

This paper presents the results of a research where the phenomenon of indiscipline was problematized approaching its possible relationship with the production of gender identities, in and through school. By means of interviews and direct observation, in classes of the 8 th grade of a school was carried out a study about the (male and female) teachers' attitudes towards what they consider their pupils' indiscipline (which are teenagers, about 13 / 14 years old). At the same time it was made an analysis about the practices of school punishment, threreby a listing of the punishments imposed to desobedient students' behavior. This listing came out from consultation to the book of disciplinary records of the students. So it was possible to bring about, among others, some important aspects of this process: a) the coherence (or incoherence) between what teachers consider indiscipline and their actual practices and attitudes towards students' behavior; b) The diferences and analogies among (male and female) teachers'practices and attitudes c) The different ways in which teachers deal with the manifestations of gender and sexuality of the (male and female) students, at the same time associate them to the practices of insubordination and indiscipline; d) the production of identities, distinctions and inequalities of gender and sexuality, thru school practices.

This comparative study considers the main causative factors for change in recent years in the teaching of modern languages in England and France and seeks to contribute, in a general sense, to the understanding of change in comparable institutions. In England by 1975 the teaching of modern languages in the comprehensive schools was seen to be inappropriate to the needs of children of the whole ability-range. A combination of the external factor of the Council of Europe initiative in devising a needs-based learning approach for adult learners, and the internal factor of teacher-based initiatives in developing a graded-objectives learning approach for the less-able, has reversed this situation to some extent. The study examines and evaluates this reversal, and, in addition, assesses teachers' attitudes towards, and understanding of, the changes involved. In France the imposition of `la reforme Haby' in 1977 and the creation of `le college unique' were the main external factors for change. The subsequent failure of the reform and the socialist government's support of decentralisation policies returning the initiative for renewal to schools are examined and evaluated, as are the internal factors for changes in language-teaching - `groupes de niveau' and the creation of `equipes pedagogiques'. In both countries changes in the function of examinations at 15/16 plus are examined. The final chapter compared the changes in both education systems.
