O projeto “Promoção da Literacia Matemática no Pré-Escolar com o apoio da Tecnologia Educativa” traduz a investigação realizada junto de um grupo de crianças do pré-escolar com 3/4 anos e dos seus pais e encarregados de educação, numa instituição educacional privada, em Lisboa. Objetiva-se a promoção de competências matemáticas na educação pré-escolar, seguindo as orientações científicas nacionais e internacionais, de que a matemática é a ciência do padrões. O segundo grande objetivo do projeto visa promover a colaboração dos pais na educação pré-escolar dos seus filhos. O Programme for International Student Assessment [PISA] refere que todo e qualquer indíviduo deve ter a possibilidade de adquirir uma literacia matemática crítica ao longo da sua vida, por forma a aplicá-la na sua vida pessoal, social e profissional. A Literacia Matemática vem contrariar a associação da matemática à manipulação arcaica dos símbolos matemáticos sem conexão e relação entre si. Mais do que dominar um conteúdo, a Literacia Matemática Crítica traduz-se nas competências que um aluno desenvolve na resolução de problemas, no relacionamento de conceitos e conteúdos, na identificação de estratégias de resolução ou na comunicação com os demais numa linguagem matemática escrita/oral. O segundo ponto do projeto objetiva promover e estimular a colaboração dos pais e encarregados de educação com a escola. Pretende-se que ambas as entidades mediadoras da construção de conhecimeto da criança possam comunicar e estabelecer estratégias de ação relativamente à educação da criança, como parceiros educativos. Os recursos tecnológicos evoluem de dia pra dia e estão acessíveis aos pais, filhos e escolas, pelo que podemos aspirar que estes possam contribuir para a parceria educativa. Em ambiente pré-escolar, pretende-se desenvolver atividades que visem objetivos matemáticos em simultâneo com a exploração do computador, periféricos e de um software desconhecido. Escolhemos um software de edição de imagem, estabelecendo um paralelo entre a pintura virtual e a pintura tradicional. Metodologicamente, a investigação assenta num estudo qualitativo, tendencialmente investigação-ação, combinando e articulando técnicas de pesquisa como a observação participante, as conversas informais com a educadora, os elementos da direção, os pais/encarregados de educação, e a análise documental. As planificações das atividades visaram a concretização dos objetivos propostos para a intervenção. No processo cíclico de investigação-ação foram identificadas dificuldades nas crianças, relativamente à matemática e ao software, pelo que, a cada ciclo, foram definidas estratégias que visassem a construção de processos de desenvolvimento na criança. As estratégias educativas assentaram essencialmente na abordagem matemática dos padrões, na planificação cuidada das atividades distintas para crianças e para pais, na utilização de recursos tecnológicos, como sejam o computador, um software de edição de imagem, o email e a webpage da escola.

Objective The Genes for Treatment study is an international, multisite collaboration exploring the role of genetic, demographic, and clinical predictors in response to cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) in pediatric anxiety disorders. The current article, the first from the study, examined demographic and clinical predictors of response to CBT. We hypothesized that the child’s gender, type of anxiety disorder, initial severity and comorbidity, and parents’ psychopathology would significantly predict outcome. Method A sample of 1,519 children 5 to 18 years of age with a primary anxiety diagnosis received CBT across 11 sites. Outcome was defined as response (change in diagnostic severity) and remission (absence of the primary diagnosis) at each time point (posttreatment, 3-, 6-, and/or 12-month follow-up) and analyzed using linear and logistic mixed models. Separate analyses were conducted using data from posttreatment and follow-up assessments to explore the relative importance of predictors at these time points. Results Individuals with social anxiety disorder (SoAD) had significantly poorer outcomes (poorer response and lower rates of remission) than those with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). Although individuals with specific phobia (SP) also had poorer outcomes than those with GAD at posttreatment, these differences were not maintained at follow-up. Both comorbid mood and externalizing disorders significantly predicted poorer outcomes at posttreatment and follow-up, whereas self-reported parental psychopathology had little effect on posttreatment outcomes but significantly predicted response (although not remission) at follow-up. Conclusion SoAD, nonanxiety comorbidity, and parental psychopathology were associated with poorer outcomes after CBT. The results highlight the need for enhanced treatments for children at risk for poorer outcomes.

The increase in foreign students in countries such as the US, the UK and Francesuggests that the international ‘education industry’ is growing in importance. Thepurpose of this paper is to investigate the empirical determinants of internationalstudent mobility. A secondary purpose is to give tentative policy suggestions to hostcountry, source country and also to provide some recommendations to students whowant to study abroad. Using pooled cross-sectional time series data for the US overthe time period 1993-2006, we estimate an econometric model of enrolment rates offoreign students in the US. Our results suggest that tuition fees, US federal support ofeducation, and the size of the ‘young’ generation of source countries have asignificant influence on international student mobility. We also consider other factorsthat may be relevant in this context.

Beyond school performance An analysis of PISA 2006 from an intersectional perspective One of the central questions in recent discussions about Swedish schools is which factors that influence school performance. Socio-economic background, gender, ethnicity, country of birth are some aspects that are mentioned in many international and national studies. Sweden is one of the participants in the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) and the results of PISA since 2000 show deteriorated results for Sweden in reading performance, mathematics and science among 15-year-old students. In order to set school performance in a broader context we analyzed data for the Swedish part of PISA 2006, in which 57 countries participated (of which 30 OECD-countries), with multivariate methods from an intersectional perspective. Our analysis of PISA 2006 shows a complexity of different social, economic and cultural factors behind students’ school performance. This intersectional result is also strengthened by the results from PISA 2009, not analysed here. Further, our results show that students’ school performance vary with immigration status but that this variation increases by the factor of social inequality in the Swedish society.

In this paper we investigate how several national educational policies and practices influence both students' average reading achievement and the social distributioll of achievement within schools and countries. Data come fJ:om the 2000/2001 administration of PISA (programme for International Student Assessment) by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Developrnent (OECD). They include observations from 212,880 lS-year-old students attending 8,038 secondary schools, which are located in 39 countries. We analyze these data with three-level Hierarchical Linear Models (HLM), with students nested in schools, which are nested within countries. Results focus on the role played by three country-level educational policies: (1) retention/repetition; (2) the mix of students in schools based on socioeconomic status (school social mix); and vocational education. We explore how these policies influence the social distribution of achievemer.t between schools within countries. Implications of these findings are discussed.

De acordo com os dados fornecidos pelo Gabinete de Avaliação Educacional do Ministério da Educação (GAVE) acerca do relatório do Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) em 2006, os resultados das provas de aferição, do 4º ano de escolaridade do 1º ciclo do ensino básico (CEB), revelam o fraco desempenho das crianças portuguesas nas tarefas de leitura e de escrita. Os dados fornecidos do Progress in International Reading Literacy Study (PIRLS), em 2011, mostram que o conhecimento do alfabeto que é fornecido através da consciência fonológica é o melhor preditor do sucesso da leitura. Assim, os objectivos desta investigação são: diagnosticar os níveis de consciência fonológica das crianças que estão em transição entre a educação pré-escolar e o 1.º CEB; implementar e validar um programa de treino da consciência fonológica; e saber até que ponto o treino da consciência fonológica influencia na aquisição dos conhecimentos a longo prazo. Nos três estudos efectuados participaram 346 sujeitos que frequentavam o pré-escolar e o 1º CEB, 49,4% do sexo feminino e 50,6% do sexo masculino. Os instrumentos utilizados foram a Prova de Segmentação Linguística (Alpha de Cronbach = 0,94) e o Programa de Treino da Consciência Fonológica (PTCF). Verificaram-se melhorias significativas no pós-teste do grupo experimental relativamente ao grupo de controlo. Verificou-se, ainda, que as habilitações académicas dos pais influenciam positivamente na aquisição desta habilidade metalinguística e são um bom preditor da mesma.

This article shows how certain aspects at the secondary level of Uruguay’s public school system produce inequalities in student achievement. The 2006 edition of the Programme for International Student Assessment (pisa) (oecd, 2006a) points to three key aspects of the institutions that regulate secondary education that play a part in reproducing inequalities of origin, hindering the equalizing role that guides the education system. First, the teacher assignment mechanism has the dual effect of sending a revolving door of young and inexperienced teachers to schools in unfavourable sociocultural contexts as well as concentrating teachers with more experience in schools in favourable contexts. Second, the geography-based system for assigning students to schools reproduces the residential segregation process. Lastly, the centralized system for supplying educational and technological materials is inadequate to the needs of the schools.

This research aimed to study the international scientific collaboration, through co-authorship, and the impact of full papers published in journals Qualis A1 and A2 of Graduate Programs in Animal Science of excellence (2007-2009). Through the indicators of production of graduate evaluation from CAPES, the research gathered the scientific production of three graduate programs, adding up to 125 articles. The citations received were gathered from the SCOPUS database and the impact of journals from the SCImago Journal & Country Rank. In order to investigate the correlation among the indicators analyzed, Pearson’s linear correlation coefficients were calculated. It was observed that the Impact Factor (IF) of the journal may influence the number of citations and that there is a weak trend for association of IFs with the number of coauthor countries. It was not observed a statistically significant correlation between the number of collaborating countries and citations received by the article.

Im Beitrag werden – mit Schwerpunkt für Deutschland und die Analyse von Kontexteffekten – die international vergleichende Schulleistungsstudie PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment) vorgestellt. Im Fokus stehen hierbei neben der Zielsetzung von PISA und der theoretischen Grundlage der Studie zum einen die methodische Basis der Daten und zum anderen empirische Beispiele für die Analyse von Bildungskontexten, die für den Erwerb von Kompetenzen und Bildungserfolgen als relevant angesehen werden. Schließlich werden auch Grenzen der PISA-Daten aufgezeigt, wenn es um die Effekte von sozialen Kontexten auf die Entwicklung von Wissen, Fertigkeiten und Fähigkeiten und anderen Bildungsprozessen geht.
