Les transformations récentes des politiques d’accountability en éducation : enjeux et incidences des outils d’action publique.

Nous proposons une discussion sur la diversité des outils et arrangements institutionnels qui sont mobilisés pour mettre en oeuvre les politiques d’accountability. Nous présentons d’abord les dimensions communes de ces politiques mais aussi la diversité des formes qu’elles revêtent dans divers contextes. Nous discutons ensuite les typologies existantes de ces politiques et leurs limites avant de développer notre proposition de typologie évolutive des politiques et instruments d’accountability dans une troisième section. L’analyse de l’évolution des outils mobilisés par les pouvoirs publics nous permet ainsi de cerner ce qui fait la nouveauté des « nouvelles » politiques d’accountability, et d'en dégager les significations et les enjeux socio-politiques actuels.

Validação da Escala de Memórias Precoces de Calor e Segurança em Relação ao Grupo de Pares (EMPCS-Pares)

A presente investigação pretendeu validar para a população portuguesa de adolescentes a Escala de Memórias Precoces de Calor e Segurança em Relação ao Grupo de Pares (EMPCSPares) bem como ver cumpridos os seus principais objetivos: 1) Adaptação da escala de memórias precoces de calor e segurança (EMPCS), enquanto medida global, para o contexto de interação com o grupo de pares; 2) Explorar a validade de construto através da análise fatorial exploratória (estudo da dimensionalidade); 3) Analisar a consistência interna do instrumento e explorar a qualidade dos itens; 4) Examinar a validade convergente e divergente através da associação com outras variáveis semelhantes e distintas do construto em análise; 5) Analisar possíveis efeitos das variáveis sociodemográficas, como a idade, género e escolaridade nos resultados da escala, bem como a sua associação com a perceção global de qualidade vida; 6) Comparar as memórias precoces emocionais em função da qualidade de vinculação (segura e insegura). A amostra é constituída por 354 jovens (152 rapazes e 202 raparigas), com idades compreendidas entre os 12 e os 18 anos (M= 15,81; DP = 1,58) a frequentar o ensino básico e secundário do sistema regular de ensino público (7ºano de escolaridade ao 12º ano de escolaridade). Do protocolo constam os seguintes instrumentos: escala de memórias precoces de calor e segurança no contexto familiar (EMPCSFamília) e na interação com o grupo de pares (EMPCSPares); escala de auto-compaixão (SCS-A); escala de vergonha externa (OAS – A); questionário de vinculação (AQ-C); escala de ansiedade, depressão e stress (EADS-21). Os resultados obtidos mostram que a escala tem uma estrutura unidimensional, possui uma excelente consistência interna, uma estabilidade temporal adequada, assim como uma boa validade convergente e divergente. Revelou igualmente discriminar os jovens com uma vinculação segura dos que apresentam uma vinculação insegura. Apesar da necessidade de mais estudos, nomeadamente a realizar em amostras clínicas, a EMPCSPares mostrou ser um instrumento robusto e útil na avaliação de memórias emocionais no contexto de interação com os pares, constituindo um contributo relevante para a investigação e prática clínica com adolescentes. / This research intends to validate for the Portuguese population of adolescents the Early Memories Scale Heat and Safety Relative to Peer Group (EMPCSPares) and see fulfilled its main objectives: 1) The early warm and security memories scale adaptation (EMPCS), as a global measure for the interaction context with the peer group; 2) Explore the construct validity by exploratory factor analysis (study of dimensionality); 3) To analyze the internal consistency of the instrument and explore the quality of the items; 4) Examine the convergent and divergent validity by association with other similar and different variables of the construct in question; 5) Analyze possible effects of sociodemographic variables such as age, gender and education in the scale results, as well as its association with the global perception of quality of life; 6) compare the emotional early memories due to the link quality (secure and insecure). The sample consists of 354 children (152 boys and 202 girls), aged between 12 and 18 years (M = 15.81, SD = 1.58) attending basic and secondary education in the regular public education system (7th grade to 12th grade). The Protocol contains the following instruments: Scale of early heat and security memories in the family context (EMPCSFamily) and interaction with the peer group (EMPCSPairs) ; Self - compassion scale (SCS-A); external shame scale (OAS - A); linking questionnaire (AQ- C) ; scale of anxiety, stress and depression (EADS 21) . The results obtained show that the scale has a one-dimensional structure, has an excellent internal consistency, an adequate temporal stability as well as good convergent and divergent validity. It also showed discriminate young people with a secure attachment of those who have an insecure attachment. Despite the need for further studies, including the conduct of clinical samples, the EMPCSPares proved to be a robust and useful tool in the evaluation of emotional memories in the context of interaction with peers, constituting an important contribution to research and clinical practice with adolescents.

Democratização do acesso ao ensino superior: os cursos de graduação à distância na UFRN

This thesis pursuits to contextualize the theoretical debate between the implementation of public education policy of the Federal Government focused in a distance learning and legal foundations for its enforcement, in order to raise questions and comments on the topic in question. Its importance is back to provide scientific input and can offer to the academy, particularly in the UFRN, and elements of society to question and rethink the complex relationship between the socio-economic and geographic access to higher education. It consists of a descriptive study on the institutionalization of distance education in UFRN as a mechanism for expanding access to higher education, for both, the research seeks to understand if the distance undergraduate courses offered by the UAB system and implemented at UFRN, promote expanding access to higher education, as it is during implementation that the rules, routines and social processes are converted from intentions to action. The discussion of this study lasted between two opposing views of Implementation models: Top-down and Bottom-up. It is worth noting that the documents PNE, PDE and programs and UAB MEETING reflect positively in improving the educational level of the population of the country It is a qualitative study, using the means Bibliographic, Document and Field Study, where they were performed 04 (four) in 2010 interviews with the management framework SEDIS / UAB in UFRN. The data were analyzed and addressed through techniques: Document Analysis and Content Analysis. The results show that the process of implementation of distance education at UFRN is in progress. According to our results, the research objective is achieved, but there was a need to rethink the conditions of the infrastructure of poles, the structure of the academic calendar, the management of the SEDIS UFRN, regarding the expansion of existing vacancies and the supply of new courses by the need for a redesign as the Secretariat's ability to hold the offerings of undergraduate courses offered by the Federal Government to be implemented in the institution. It was also found that levels of evasion still presents a challenge to the teaching model. Given the context, we concluded that the greatest contribution of UAB and consequently UFRN by distance learning for undergraduate courses (Bachelor in Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Geography and Biological Sciences, beyond the bachelor's degrees in Business and Public Administration ) is related to increasing the number of vacancies and accessibility of a population that was previously deprived of access to university

A memória e a identidade do sindicato de trabalhadores em educação das redes pública e estadual e municipais do Maranhão - SINPROESEMMA, São Luís, Maranhão Brasil

Esse estudo refere-se à construção da Memória e da Identidade do Sindicato de Trabalhadores em Educação das Redes Pública Estadual e Municipais do Maranhão – SINPROESEMMA, entidade reconhecida oficialmente pela categoria como seu legítimo representante em todo Estado do Maranhão. Reconstruir a Memória e a Identidade do SINPROESEMMA, naqueles que lhe deram origem, pois, a memória permite a relação do corpo presente com o passado e, ao mesmo tempo, interfere no processo “atual” das representações. A memória aparece como força subjetiva ao mesmo tempo profunda e ativa, latente e penetrante. A memória desse sindicato que não deve ser pensada apenas como resgate do passado, mas como marco referencial a partir do qual os docentes, a sociedade acadêmica e a própria comunidade redescobrem valores e experiências. Portanto se a memória e a identidade do SINPROESEMMA forem entendidas como ferramenta de comunicação e de organização dos trabalhadores, então poder-se-á afirmar que se transforma em conhecimento útil a história e a experiência acumulada em sua trajetória. Uma das características da memória, que é essencial ao pesquisador, é o fato de, apesar de resguardar sua dimensão subjetiva, também expressar, no que tange ao SINPROESEMMA, sua constituição de bases coletivas. Este trabalho mostrará como as condições básicas objetivas e subjetivas do mesmo estão relacionadas à luta dos trabalhadores do ensino público das redes municipais e estadual do Estado do Maranhão - Brasil.

Crenças e atitudes dos profissionais da educação face à sexualidade dos alunos com incapacidade intelectual num agrupamento de escolas da Maia

A sexualidade é um dos aspetos essenciais para o equilíbrio psicossomático e o desenvolvimento integral do ser humano. No caso da sexualidade das pessoas com incapacidade intelectual, o preconceito, mitos, tabus e a discriminação colaboram para uma perspetiva de que a pessoa com incapacidade não tem direito a exercer a sua sexualidade. Neste contexto, esta investigação tem como objetivo descrever e compreender Crenças e Atitudes dos profissionais da educação face à sexualidade dos alunos com incapacidade intelectual num agrupamento de escolas da rede pública. Nesta pesquisa, de tipo descritivo, os dados foram recolhidos através de um questionário em formato digital com perguntas abertas e fechadas e analisados de forma qualitativa e quantitativa. Participaram neste estudo 106 docentes e 50 assistentes operacionais em funções num agrupamento de escolas da Maia. Globalmente, os resultados obtidos mostram que existe concordância elevada nos dois grupos de estudo relativamente ao facto de a sexualidade integrar as várias dimensões (Afetividade, Comunicação, Prazer e Reprodução), da necessidade de obterem informação no âmbito da Educação Sexual e concordância moderada no facto de ser difícil falar sobre o tema da sexualidade com os alunos com Incapacidade Intelectual. Tanto os docentes do sexo masculino, como os assistentes operacionais do mesmo género revelam níveis médios de atitudes positivas superiores relativamente aos pares do sexo feminino.

Equality of opportunity, cultural diversity and claims for fairness

The present paper examines some of the tensions, problems and challenges associated with claims for equality of opportunity (the fairness argument). The introductory part identifies three separate forms of justification for public education, including the argument associated with equality of opportunity. Part II examines in detail two questions that reveal part of the anatomy of equality of opportunity: (1) what an opportunity is, and (2) when individuals’ opportunities are equal. This is followed by a presentation of the two basic principles of equality of opportunity: (1) the principle of non-discrimination, and (2) the “levelling the playing field” principle. The next part takes up the multiculturalist hypothesis advanced by minority groups for the accommodation and recognition of cultural diversity. This is followed by the identification of a set of claims comprising the “fairness argument”. The last section focuses on the “currency problem” associated with cultural diversity as a form of “unfair disadvantage”. Part V examines two of the major shortcomings associated with the multicultural conception of equality of opportunity, while the concluding part discusses some of the questions that must be answered by any conception of equal opportunities.

La educación pública bajo la lógica del mercado

Este artículo desarrolla el contexto político-ideológico por el que se han legitimado las propuestas de reforma del sistema escolar español. Propuestas que bajo el supuesto de que la efi cacia es un atributo exclusivo del sector privado, han aplicado una concepción de mercado a la función pública. Esta concepción, inducida por un modelo de desarrollo caracterizado por el «Estado mínimo», tiene como meta la transformación de la cultura de lo público acercándola a los valores del mundo privado empresarial, sustituyendo los modelos normativos de ciudadanía por los de intercambio entre servidor y cliente.

Implementação de programas de educação ambiental nas escolas municipais de Curitiba, Paraná, Brasil

O presente trabalho pretende analisar a implementação dos programas de Educação Ambiental nas escolas de ensino fundamental, da Rede Municipal de Ensino Público, do Município de Curitiba, no estado do Paraná, Brasil. Esta análise tem por objeto de estudo as ações desenvolvidas pelas escolas, no que se refere às condições de saúde e bem-estar, a partir do que estabelecem os Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais. Buscou-se compreender como os conteúdos definidos por ‘temas transversais' propiciam a constituição de um espaço de transformação em nível municipal. Este trabalho se constrói com base em discussões sobre o conhecimento produzido na área de Educação Ambiental e pelo levantamento de informações por meio de entrevistas e questionários junto aos profissionais ligados aos órgãos municipais responsáveis e às escolas. A análise realizada demonstrou que os projetos implementados vêm surtindo efeito positivo sobre as transformações dos pensamentos relativos às questões ambientais, sofrendo descontinuidades devido às mudanças nas gestões políticas. ABSTRACT; This study aims to analyze the implementation of the Environment Education Programs in the schools of the Municipal Public Education Network, in the City of Curitiba, in the state of Paraná, Brazil. The object study on this analysis is the actions developed by the schools, referring the conditions of health and well-being, from what is established by the National Curricular Parameters. We try to understand how the contents defined for 'transversal subjects' can propitiate the constitution of a space of transformation in municipal level. This work is built on discussion about the knowledge produced in the area of Environment Education besides the survey of informations through interviews and questionnaires with professionals connected to the responsible offices and the schools. This analysis demonstrated that the implemented projects is causing positive effects on the transformations of the relative thoughts to the environment questions, come suffering discontinuities due to the changes in the managements politics. RESUMEN; Este proyecto tiene por objetivo examinar la implementación de los programas de educación ambiental en las escuelas de educación básica de la Red Municipal de Educación Pública, en la ciudad de Curitiba, Paraná, Brasil. El objeto de estudio de la análisis son las medidas adoptadas por las escuelas, con respecto a la salud y el bienestar, de acuerdo con lo establecido por los Parámetros Curriculares Nacionales. Tratamos de comprender como el contenido, tal como se define por "temas transversales" puede ofertar un espacio de transformación en el nivel municipal. Este trabajo se basa en los debates de los conocimientos producidos en el ámbito de la educación ambiental y por las informaciones planteadas a través de entrevistas y cuestionarios con los profesionales de los departamentos responsables y en las escuelas. El análisis mostró que los proyectos ejecutados han tenido efecto positiva en la transformación de ideas sobre cuestiones ambientales, sufriendo discontinuidades debidas a cambios en las gestiones políticas.

L'évaluation de l'autonomie fonctionnelle des personnes âgées : contribution de la didactique professionnelle à la formation des travailleuses et travailleurs sociaux au Québec

Résumé : Le vieillissement démographique est statistiquement indiscutable au Québec. Ce singulier trompeur masque les différentes manières de vieillir. Pour ceux qui ne parviennent pas à vieillir en santé, les solidarités familiales, comme les solidarités institutionnelles, c’est à dire publiques viennent en principe compenser ce qu’il est convenu de désigner de perte d’autonomie. Les politiques de santé publique au Québec organisent les services de soutien à domicile sous condition d’avoir estimé la situation de la personne avec l’outil d’évaluation multiclientèle (OEMC). Il est en usage dans l’ensemble du réseau de la santé et des services sociaux, et utilisé par les professionnels dont les travailleuses et les travailleurs sociaux (TS). Or, la gérontologie est peu soutenue dans la formation initiale des TS. Nous nous sommes interrogée sur les savoirs mobilisés par les TS quand ils évaluent. S’agissant des savoirs inscrits dans la pratique, nous avons orienté la recherche dans les théories de l’activité, la didactique professionnelle et le cadre conceptuel de la médiation. Nous avons étudié l’activité de professionnels en travail social expérimentés afin d’identifier certains des savoirs mobilisés pour les rendre disponibles à la formation des étudiant (e)s en travail social au Québec. Cent-cinquante heures d’observations et vingt-deux entretiens individuels et collectifs ont été réalisés avec des intervenants volontaires du service de soutien à domicile. Les résultats préliminaires de la recherche ont été présentés lors de groupes de discussion avec les TS ayant participé à la recherche, puis avec des enseignants en travail social. Nos résultats permettent de décrire les procédures de l’évaluation dans l’organisation du service d’aide à domicile et d’en différencier le processus de l’activité par laquelle le TS évalue l’autonomie fonctionnelle de la personne. Nous constatons que les savoirs mobilisés par les TS reposent premièrement sur une connaissance fine du territoire, de l’outil d’évaluation et des institutions. Un deuxième registre de savoir concerne la conceptualisation de l’autonomie fonctionnelle par l’outil OEMC comme objet et domaine d’intervention des TS. Enfin, un troisième registre se réfère aux savoirs mobilisés pour entrer en relation avec les personnes âgées, avec leur entourage. Or, ces trois registres de savoir n’apparaissent pas dans le discours des TS et résultent de notre propre analyse sur leur pratique. L’évaluation de l’autonomie fonctionnelle analysée par le concept de médiation est révélatrice du rapport aux savoirs du TS. S’agissant de savoirs de la pratique, nous constatons que leur classification entre les catégories usuelles de savoirs théoriques ou pratiques était inopérante. Nous empruntons le vocabulaire de la didactique professionnelle : celui des invariants opératoires reliés à l’autonomie fonctionnelle et celui des schèmes d’activité reliés à l’activité d’évaluation. C’est ainsi que nous avons identifié deux moments dans l’évaluation. Le premier assemble la collecte des informations et l’analyse des données. L’autonomie fonctionnelle se décline dans des conditions d’existence de la personne sur l’axe allant de la mobilité à la cognition avec comme balises d’intervention la sécurité et l’intégrité de la personne. Dans ce processus itératif, le TS identifie avec la personne ce qui nuit à son quotidien. L’évaluation formule comment résoudre cette incidence, comment la perte d’autonomie pourrait être compensée. La collecte d’information et le raisonnement du TS est alors un mouvement itératif, les deux éléments du processus sont liés et en continu. Le second moment de l’évaluation apparait si, dans le processus itératif, le TS perçoit une dissonance. Il est essentiel d’en identifier la nature pour la prendre en compte et maintenir la finalité de l’activité qui consiste à évaluer l’autonomie fonctionnelle à des fins compensatrices. Le TS doit identifier l’objet de la dissonance pour pouvoir cerner avec la personne le besoin inhérent à la perte d’autonomie et envisager d’y remédier. La prise en compte de cette dissonance vient ralentir le déroulement de l’activité. Le raisonnement qui, jusque-là, était relié à la collecte d’informations s’en dissocie pour analyser ce qui vient faire obstacle à l’activité d’évaluation à partir de la situation. Les composantes qui génèrent la dissonance paraissent reliées à la quotidienneté, aux conditions de vie à domicile de la personne (cohérence/incohérence, refus de services, autonégligence, maltraitance, agressivité). La dissonance génère une activité plus complexe pour évaluer la situation. L’autonomie fonctionnelle se décline toujours sur l’axe mobilité/cognition avec comme balises d’intervention la sécurité et l’intégrité de la personne. Or, pour ce faire, les TS raisonnent selon trois schèmes. Dans les situations où, pour décider de la suite du dossier, il faut en référer à une norme (de service, de profession, etc.) le raisonnement est déontologique. Il est aussi des situations où le TS agit au regard de valeurs et de représentations qui relèvent de sa sphère personnelle. Nous désignons ce raisonnement d’instinctuel. Enfin, le TS peut naviguer entre ces deux orientations et choisir la voie du raisonnement clinique que nous qualifions d’éthique et se rapproche alors des pratiques prudentielles qui sont marquées par l’incertitude.
