Educação intercultural no 1º Ciclo do Ensino Básico: parcerias envolvendo a escola e a comunidade

Este estudo tem como finalidade compreender o processo de constituição de uma parceria educativa envolvendo escolas do 1.º Ciclo do Ensino Básico e outras instituições da comunidade para a promoção da educação intercultural e analisar a influência do trabalho desenvolvido por essa parceria nas práticas, atitudes, competências e conhecimentos de todos os participantes. Situa-se, por um lado, num entendimento de educação intercultural enquanto abordagem educativa fundamental para todos os alunos, assente na valorização da diversidade e na promoção de atitudes e competências de relacionamento interpessoal (como o respeito e a solidariedade), tendo em vista a formação de cidadãos responsáveis e participativos na construção de sociedades mais justas e coesas. Por outro, justifica o potencial das parcerias educativas para o desenvolvimento pessoal, profissional e institucional dos parceiros, assim como para o desenvolvimento da competência intercultural de todos os participantes (parceiros, alunos e comunidade envolvente). O desenho investigativo delineado, de natureza predominantemente qualitativa, encontra-se na interseção de três métodos investigativos: estudo de caso, estudo etnográfico e investigação-ação. Num primeiro momento (ano letivo 2008/2009) efetuou-se um estudo exploratório que visou conhecer as práticas de educação intercultural e de trabalho em parceria de professores a lecionar em escolas do 1.º CEB do concelho de Aveiro. O objetivo deste estudo era reunir sugestões de atividades e de instituições a contactar para a constituição de um grupo de parceiros com vista ao desenvolvimento posterior de um projeto sobre educação intercultural. Os dados recolhidos por meio da aplicação de um inquérito por questionário a 228 professores do 1º CEB do distrito de Aveiro (dos quais 114 foram respondidos) permitiram concluir que as práticas educativas a este nível, e no contexto em causa, são ainda escassas ou pouco divulgadas. Passou-se, então, à constituição de um grupo de parceiros educativos que contou com um total de 13 elementos: a investigadora, enquanto parceira representante da Universidade de Aveiro, seis professoras do 1.º CEB, duas professoras de Música das Atividades de Enriquecimento Curricular, um representante de uma associação de imigrantes, um representante de uma associação cultural, um representante de uma CERCI e um representante da Câmara e Biblioteca Municipal. Ao longo do ano escolar 2010/2011, o grupo de parceiros desenvolveu colaborativamente um projeto de intervenção sobre educação intercultural para alunos do 1.º CEB. Este projeto proporcionou-lhes momentos de formação sobre educação intercultural e jogos colaborativos e permitiu-lhes partilhar as suas dúvidas e experiências relativas à temática em causa, propor estratégias e metodologias e disponibilizar recursos para a conceção e implementação das atividades. Os dados foram recolhidos em diferentes momentos: antes de se dar início ao projeto de intervenção, efetuou-se uma entrevista inicial a cada um dos parceiros; durante o decorrer do projeto realizou-se um focus group e registaram-se em formato áudio todas as sessões de trabalho entre os parceiros; após a conclusão do projeto de intervenção, teve lugar uma nova entrevista individual a cada um deles. Estes dados foram transcritos e analisados de acordo com a técnica de análise de conteúdo. Para além disso, todos os documentos elaborados pela investigadora durante a gestão da parceria, os portfólios das professoras participantes e os registos fotográficos das atividades implementadas constituíram-se como dados secundários. Os resultados mostraram que a participação neste projeto: i) conduziu a que ocorresse uma alteração das representações dos parceiros sobre interculturalidade e educação intercultural; ii) permitiu a todos os participantes (parceiros, alunos e comunidade) desenvolverem a sua competência intercultural; iii) proporcionou situações de trabalho colaborativo que contribuíram para o desenvolvimento pessoal, profissional e institucional de todos os parceiros; iv) motivou os parceiros a darem continuidade ao trabalho aqui desenvolvido. Este estudo permitiu, ainda, refletir sobre a importância da formação de formadores em educação intercultural e da necessidade de sensibilização para o desenvolvimento de trabalho colaborativo entre escola, comunidade e investigadores académicos.

Internacionalização da educação superior: estratégias e ações da Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná

The present dissertation is inserted in the internationalization of the university-level education research field and aimed to analyze the strategies and internationalization actions of the Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná (UTFPR), locus of research. The study sought to establish the current context in which the internationalization is inserted and contextualize the research problematic presenting definitions, concepts, reasons and strategies linked to an international dimension. It also presents a historical context of the internationalization of Brazil and current public policies related to this topic. This research used content analysis to analyze institutional documents (Institutional Development Plans (2004-2017) and Management Reports (2000-2014)); semi-structured interviews (Director of International Relations, Coordinator of programs and actions related to the mobility of students, Head of the Department of Education and Dean of Research and Graduate Studies); information pertaining to the theme from the university’s website and events held in the Campus of the institution. Data were analyzed using the procedures prescribed for this type of analysis with the establishment of three categories: concepts, strategies and actions. Based on the foregoing, in terms of synthesis, could be understood that increasing the participation of UTFPR on the international scene has always been linked to the institution’s policies and goals, yet without an political institutional plan without objectives, strategies and goals established systematically. In the case of the conception of the internationalization of UTFPR it was realized that the theme currently gained more focus and greater coverage in the institution. In this context, Ciência Sem Fronteiras program contributed to, giving greater visibility to UTFPR on the world stage. From then on, specific strategies and actions are being developed in seeking internationalization under institutional perspective, of the servers, the expansion of mobility, and greater visibility of the institution in the international arena, regional integration and promotion of internationalization at the university. Overall, the management of internationalization in the institution does not have a formal project, but has specific strategies and actions seeking their expansion. Thus, the process of internationalization in UTFPR presents itself in an early stage, with strategies and actions seeking to expand the international dimension in the institution who takes singular importance to its expansion and consolidation.

Outback institutions : an application of the Institutional Analysis and Development (IAD) framework to four case studies in Australia’s Outback -- Part 4 : Incentives for community participation and land use decisions in Etheridge Shire, Queensland

Natural resource management planning in the Northern Gulf region of Queensland is concerned with ‘how [natural assets] and community aspirations can be protected and enhanced to provide the Northern Gulf community with the economic, social and environmental means to meet the continuing growth of the region in an ecological and economically sustainable way’ (McDonald & Dawson 2004). In the Etheridge Shire, located in the tropical savanna of the Northern Gulf region, two of the activities that influence the balance between economic growth and long-term sustainable development are: 1. the land-use decisions people in the Shire make with regards to their own enterprises. 2. their decisions to engage in civically-minded activities aimed at improving conditions in the region. Land-use decision and engagement in community development activities were chosen for detailed analysis because they are activities for which policies can be devised to improve economic and sustainable development outcomes. Changing the formal and informal rules that guide and govern these two different kinds of decisions that people can make in the Etheridge Shire – the decision to improve one’s own situation and the decision to improve the situation for others in the community – may expand the set of available options for people in the Shire to achieve their goals and aspirations. Identifying appropriate and effective changes in rules requires, first, an understanding of the ‘action arena’, in this case comprised of a diversity of ‘participants’ from both within and outside the Etheridge Shire, and secondly knowledge of ‘action situations’ (land-use decisions and engagement in community development activities) in which stakeholders are involved and/or have a stake. These discussions are presented in sections 4.1.1.1 and 4.1.1.2.

Acquaintance or partner? Social economy organisations, institutional logics and regional development in Australia

The social economy as a regional development actor is gaining greater attention given its purported ability to address social and environmental problems. This growth in interest is occurring within a global environment that is calling for a more holistic understanding of development compared to traditionally economic-centric conceptions. While regional development policies and practices have long considered for-profit businesses as agents for regional growth, there is a relatively limited understanding of the role of the social economy as a development actor. The institutional environment is a large determinant of all kinds of entrepreneurial activity, and therefore understanding the relationships between the social economy and broader regional development processes is warranted. This paper moves beyond suggestions of an economic-centric focus of regional development by utilising institutional logics as a theoretical framework for understanding the role of social enterprise in regional development. A multiple case study of ten social enterprises in two regional locations in Australia suggests that social enterprise can represent competing logics to economic-centric institutional values and systems. The paper argues that dominant institutional logics can constrain or promote the inter-play between the social and the economic aspects of development, in the context of social enterprise.

Institutional support for freshwater aquaculture development: a study of Mirzapur district of Uttar Pradesh, India

The aquaculture sector has been playing an increasingly dominating role in Indian fisheries scenario since the last two and half decades. Introduction of induced breeding and composite fish culture (CFC) technologies has changed the freshwater aquaculture sector in India. Institutional support has been one of the most crucial aspects in all fisheries development programs, more so in the Indian context where most of fish farmers are socially and economically weak. The innovation of CFC technology in freshwater aquaculture sector in the early seventies generated the need for adequate and effective institutional support to farmers. Under the freshwater aquaculture development program, the Fish Farmers Development Agencies (FFDA) have been established at district level to provide technical and extension support to the farming community besides arranging ponds on lease and supply of seeds. In addition to above, FFDAs are also expected to arrange loans from banks and provide subsidies. Thus, FFDAs are meant to provide institutional support to fish farming community in the country. In view of the above, an effort was made to study the adequacy and effectiveness of institutional support provided by the FFDA, Mirzapur for the development of aquaculture in Mirzapur district of Uttar Pradesh {U.P.), India. Study reveals that leasing of ponds for fish farming has been favourable to economically weaker sections of societies while bank loan accessibility is more for those having relatively higher economic status. Though the FFDA, Mirzapur performed well in providing training to potential fish farmers and creating awareness about fish farming, its effectiveness could not be equally seen in seed supply.
