Re-conceptualiser notre expérience de l’environnement audio-visuel qui nous entoure : l’individuation, entre attention et mémoire

Notre mémoire prend en charge de re-conceptualiser notre nouvel environnement audio-visuel et l’expérience que nous en faisons. À l’ère du numérique et de la dissémination généralisée des images animées, nous circonscrivons une catégorie d’images que nous concevons comme la plus à même d’avoir un impact sur le développement humain. Nous les appelons des images-sons synchrono-photo-temporalisées. Plus spécifiquement, nous cherchons à mettre en lumière leur puissance d’affection et de contrôle en démontrant qu’elles ont une influence certaine sur le processus d’individuation, influence qui est grandement facilitée par l’isotopie structurelle qui existe entre le flux de conscience et leur flux d’écoulement. Par le biais des recherches de Bernard Stiegler, nous remarquons également l’important rôle que jouent l’attention et la mémoire dans le processus d’individuation. L’ensemble de notre réflexion nous fait réaliser à quel point le système d’éducation actuel québécois manque à sa tâche de formation citoyenne en ne dispensant pas un enseignement adéquat des images animées.

La educación social como instrumento para la equidad social y la calidad del sistema educativo. Estudio centrado en la etapa de la E.S.O.

The contribution that alternate, pull-out and externally provided programs within schools make towards student learning, wellbeing and pathways

Research report for Department of Education and Early Childhood Development, Frankston Mornington Peninsula Youth Partnerships & Frankston Mornington Peninsula Local Learning Employment Network. The focus of this review is on programs organised for schools by providers external to the education system for students who are at risk of not completing both compulsory and the non‐compulsory years of schooling and/or who are at risk of low academic achievement. The nature of such risks faced by students and the responses of education institutions to them—and the efficacy of such programs—are also considered.

‘It’s like Spiderman… with great power comes great responsibility’: school autonomy, school context and the audit culture

This paper explores issues of school autonomy within the context of the performative demands of the audit culture. The focus is on a case study of Clementine Academy, a large and highly diverse English secondary school. Specific situated, professional, material and external factors at the school were significant in shaping Clementine’s response to and take-up of the policy of academisation (a key reform within broader government mandates to create an increasingly autonomised education system). Factors such as the school’s intake and history, its ethos and values, its access to human and economic resources and its status and power as an outstanding school supported its confident and ‘morally’ focused take-up of this policy. Clementine’s privileged position in relation to these factors enabled the school to mediate and challenge some of the negative effects of the audit culture. This paper highlights the significance of considering these contextual factors in understanding the different ways in which schools are currently engaging their autonomy to cope with the demands of the audit culture.

The politics of differentiation in schools

In many English-speaking countries, teachers are encouraged to differentiate their classrooms, and in some cases, through various policy mechanisms. This encouragement is often accompanied by threats and sanctions for not making the grade. By exploring the ways in which one education system in Australia has mandated differentiation through an audit of teacher practices, this book provides a timely engagement with the relationship between differentiated classrooms and social justice. It covers tensions, for instance, between providing culturally-appropriate classrooms, including constructing engaging and relevant curricula, and lowering expectations for students who have traditionally been marginalised by schooling. The data for this book has been collected from the same group of teachers over a period of three years, and offers detailed insights into how a particular politics of differentiation has played itself out in the context of a ‘global reform movement’ that has focused on improving student outcomes.

Trajectoire de la réforme de l’inspection en Belgique francophone

L’article montre que la trajectoire de la réforme de l’inspection en Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles (FWB) est loin d’être linéaire. Elle est marquée par des processus de reconversion institutionnelle d’institutions existantes, mais aussi de sédimentation et d’hybridation entre l’« ancien » et le « nouveau ». En effet, elle participe à la fois d’une politique de changement institutionnel ambitieuse et de construction du « système scolaire » dans un paysage au départ assez décentralisé et fragmenté ; mais, simultanément, elle est marquée par des « contraintes » institutionnelles existantes, des négociations et transactions entre différents acteurs politiques et scolaires qui déterminent les contours et les compétences du nouveau corps d’inspection en gestation après le décret de 2007 comme les rôles des inspecteurs et leur division du travail avec d’autres acteurs. De plus, dans la mise en œuvre du décret, les orientations normatives, cognitives et professionnelles des acteurs, la permanence de la diversité institutionnelle des réseaux comme la variance structurelle des territoires « modulent » et « tempèrent » l’ambition du changement institutionnel affiché par la politique de la FWB. Cela change mais pas complètement : il y a un processus de conversion partielle et « en tension » de l’institution qu’est l’inspection.

Gestão democrática caminhos e possibilidades : um estudo de caso em uma escola pública de ensino fundamental em Belém

A linha de pesquisa desenvolvida nesta dissertação não é inédita, todavia, apresenta algumas peculiaridades a respeito da gestão democrática para a educação brasileira, mais especificamente em Belém do Pará, que são no mínimo, um contributo à sociedade. Principalmente porque demonstra sucintamente, no primeiro e segundo capítulos a trajetória sócio histórica e a política-pedagógica da gestão democrática no Brasil a partir dos meados do século XVI, até a implementação da LDB nº 9394/96. No terceiro capítulo trato a respeito das Leis de Diretrizes e Bases da Educação Nacional, nº 5692/71 e da LDB nº 9394/96, esta última objetivou romper com os resquícios deixados pela 5692/71, vale frisar que o primeiro estado a implementar as Leis de Diretrizes e Bases, assentadas na Lei nº 9394/96, foi o estado do Pará. Nos capítulos: quarto e quinto destaco a Metodologia aplicada à pesquisa de campo; às análises dos dados coletados e mensurados, e construo uma triangulação e/ou cruzamento (Teoria-Práxis-Teoria que resultará à práxis), entre a teoria pesquisada e analisada, com as referências bibliográficas e com os dados coletados no campo acerca dos caminhos e possibilidades necessários para articular a gestão democrática no município de Belém. Para construir esse trajeto recorri às leituras bibliográficas de autores que já aprofundaram o assunto como: José Júlio Chiavenato, Luiz Fernando Dourado, Paulo Freire, Moacir Gadotti, Carlos Libâneo, João Monlevad, Vítor Paro, Michel Thiollent, Sofia Lérché Vieira entre outros autores que contribuíram para a construção teórica e prática, e que estão citados na referência. No que concerne a pesquisa de campo foi efetivada uma sondagem prévia e uma apresentação do tema à direção da escola e para a presidente do Conselho Escolar, em seguida foram feitos contatos com os profissionais da educação através de conversas informais a cerca do assunto. Após esse processo foram aplicados questionários com vinte e seis perguntas objetivas e duas perguntas subjetivas, que estão expostas no anexo desta dissertação; outros mecanismos utilizados na pesquisa de campo foram as entrevistas in lócus com alguns profissionais da escola pesquisada, utilizou-se também a observação participante com o viés na abordagem sócio histórica. O trabalho de campo e as referências bibliográficas coadunadas à observação participante, no cotidiano da comunidade escolar, foram essenciais para a consolidação deste trabalho dissertativo que envolveu um tema, que certamente, está em voga na educação brasileira e que serviu como base para o título desta dissertação: Gestão democrática caminhos e possibilidades:. Um estudo de caso em uma escola pública de ensino fundamental em Belém. A dissertação em questão também apresenta no capítulo quinto o tripé básico para a análise científica relacionada a gestão democrática que são: Eleição direta para o Conselho Escolar, eleição direta para o diretor/articulador/social, eleição para o grêmio estudantil, esta sob a direção dos alunos. A base desse tripé deve estar assentada na participação qualitativa de todas as categorias da comunidade escolar, preservando e respeitando a autonomia de cada categoria, bem como demonstra a aproximação e a contribuição da comunidade externa para o processo de ensino-aprendizagem. E, por fim, não menos importante, proponho algumas sugestões que estão expostas nas conclusões e demonstram claramente a necessidade de implementação de alguns caminhos a serem seguidos e implementados para que de fato e de direito se processe a gestão democrática participativa, à luz dos conceitos apresentados nesta dissertação que estão diretamente relacionados à formação, à participação, e à autonomia, para isso é necessário alguns ajustes na lei nº 7.722/94, na resolução nº036/2008 e o conhecimento e domínio da Lei nº 9394/96.__ ABSTRACT: The line of research developed in this thesis is not new, however, presents some peculiarities about the democratic management in Brazilian education, specifically in Belem, which are at least a contribution to society. Mainly because it shows succinctly in the first and second chapters the history and socio-historical political-pedagogical democratic management in Brazil since the mid-sixteenth century through implementation of the LDB 9394/96. ln the third chapter dealing with respect to the Laws of Directives and Bases of National Education, 5692/71 and 9394/96 LDB, the latter aimed to break with the remnants left over from 5692/71, it is worth stressing that the first state to implement the laws Guidelines and Bases, sitting in the Law 9394/96, was the Para The fourth and fifth chapters highlight the Methodology applied to field research, the analysis of data collected and measured and construct a triangulation and I or intersection (Theory-Praxis-Theory resulting praxis), between theory researched and analyzed with the references and the data collected in the field about the ways and possibilities necessary to articulate the democratic management at the education system in the municipality of Belém. To construct this path resorted to reading literature by authors who have explored the subject as: Jose Julio Chiavenato, Luiz Fernando Dourado, Paulo Freire, Moacir Gadotti, Carlos Libâneo John Monlevade, Paro Vítor, Michel Thiollent, Sofia Lerche Vieira and others who contributed to the theoretical and practical construction andare cited in the reference. Regarding the field research, it was carried a survey and a preliminary presentation of the theme to the school principal and to the School Board president, then were made contacts with professionals in education, through informal conversations about the subject. After this procedure were applied questionnaires with twenty-six objective questions and two subjective questions that are exposed in the appendix of this thesis. Other mechanisms used in field research were interviews in locus with some professionals of the surveyed. It was also used participant observation with the bias in the socio-historical approach. The field research and the references link ed to the participant observation in daily school community. were essential for the consolidation of this dissertational work involving a theme, which certainly, is in vogue in the Brazilian education and That served as the basis for this title dissertation: Management democratic ways and possibilities: A in a public elementary school case study in Belém. This dissertation Thesis presents in Its fifth chapter the basic tripod for scientific analysis related to the democratic management which are: Direct election for the School Board, direct election for chief articulator/social, for students union, this last one under the direction of the students. The basis of this tripod must be seated in the qualitative participation of all categories of the school community, preserving and respecting the autonomy of each on and demonstrates the approach and the contribution of the externa! community to the process of teaching and learning. At finally, but not less important propose some suggestions that are exposed on the conclusion and clearly demonstrate the need to implement some ways to be followed and implemented so that actually and by law the participatory democratic management, may be conducted according to Ulrich the concepts of this dissertation, are directly related to education, participation, and autonomy. However, this requires some adjustments in the Law 7.722/94, in its resolution 036/2008, and indeed the knowledge mastery of the Law 9394/96.

Integral Perspective of the Costa Rican Educational Development

The purpose of this essay is to raise the educational development that has been experienced in our country, outlining influential frames such as political, social, religious and economical ones. It aims to report statistical data as indicators of the development of our educational system, in areas of coverage, average education, repetition, desertion, among others. It is imperative to achieve changes and restructuring in our education system at all levels, from kindergarten to university, so it should take into account the contribution of all stakeholders in the education sector, as the human resource is valuable and all the innovative proposals should be heard, especially those that seek to build together and not ideas imposed that hinder the development of education in our country. Improvements must be necessary because there is an existing desire by many people of improving and achieving a true enrichment in our education.

The Support Educational Commitee Participation in the Pedagogical Approach of an Educational Integration

Educational services are essential to social and economical development of people, mainly to the progress of all sectors of society. Establishing actions that can promote the participation of various social groups is essential to improve their quality of life and building more respectful and fair human rights without any discrimination or exclusion. In recent years, the Costa Rican education system has undergone significant changes due to the pedagogical approach of inclusive education in which students with educational needs may require different support and specialized resources for training and development. For this, the Basic Educational Division of the Center for Teaching and Research in Education, generated a concern of investigating the participation of the Committee of Educational Support in the process of educational integration, thus, determine the functions performed in the educational context, under the rules of the 7600 Equal Opportunity Act for people with disabilities, which is the entity that corresponds to regulate access to education by identifying the support required for students with educational needs and, advice and trains, administrative staff in schools both public and private in the country. In addition, there is also a concern for exploring the role of the Special Education teacher for this Committee, as well as learning the perceptions of teachers and parents about the functions performed by the committee.

Proposal for Academic Achievement and Permanence of Students in the 7th Grade (1)

This paper analyzes the impact of change processes experienced by many student populations when completing primary education (1st-6th grade) and starting secondary education (7th-11th grade). Based on the research conducted, this paper describes situations and aspects that may result in conditional factors for the student’s adjustment at this level: time-space changes, as well as organizational and dynamic changes that would set the new educational environment and social context in which this new stage will be developed. Such conditional factors that affect learning in incoming students: programs, teaching methodology, learning styles and new evaluation methods will be discussed. As a result of this research, a proposal is presented to facilitate transition from primary to the secondary education. This proposal includes guidelines for awareness and strengthening of pedagogical mediation, which would contribute to the permanence of students from all types of institutions in the education system.  (1) [Translator’s note: The Costa Rican education system is composed of primary education (1st-6th grade) and secondary education (7th-11th grade).]

Educational Inclusion in the Regular Classroom: an Asperger Syndrome Case

The following paper resulted from the final research project conducted for my Master’s Degree in Teacher Training for Teachers of Primary Education (1st – 6th grade of the Basic General Education). This research project was conducted under the supervision of the Rural Education Division of the Center for Research and Teaching in Education (CIDE-UNA, Spanish acronym), in coordination with the Central America Educational and Cultural Coordination (CECC). The research is qualitative with an interpretative approach. Our main objective was to analyze the process of inclusive education in the regular classroom for a person with Asperger’s Syndrome, defined as a type of social impairment. The case study method was used in this research, as it allows a deeper study. A girl was chosen from a public school in an urban area of San José, Costa Rica. Three techniques were used to obtain information: interviews, questionnaires and documentation (personal file, behavior record, and psychological assessment) related to the girl with Asperger. The triangulation of sources was used as a method of analysis. The conclusion of the project was that regular schools may have children miss-diagnosed with Asperger’s Syndrome, and that our schools are still far from achieving inclusive education, but efforts are being made to achieve it. For a more opportune intervention, some recommendations based on this study were provided to the family and the school of the girl with Asperger.

Proposal for Labor Market Integration of Teachers in Contexts of High Social Vulnerability

The purpose of this paper is to share a proposal for teacher’s labor market integration in contexts of high social5 vulnerability. This paper is the result of a research conducted in a priority attention primary school6 of the central canton of Heredia7. It explored the labor market integration process of teachers, considering the community, family and student reality of a population social risk. The research that supports this proposal is based on a qualitative approach, since the diagnosis process is not intended to provide answers that could be commonly applied to other education centers in similar contexts, but to make an exploratory approach of teachers’ reality and their integration process into education institutions of high social vulnerability. Therefore, although this paper intends to share this experience, it does not aim to unify integration practices, but to be an input in carrying out similar processes.  (5) The concept of high social vulnerability is understood based on Sojo’s approach (2003), which defines it as marginal urban communities in areas considered by the Costa Rican government as priority areas with the greatest social, economic backwardness in the country, and high rates of violence, leisure, unemployment and drug addiction.
