The aim of this paper is initially to consider some issues related to the relationship between humanization and alienation in the process of historical social development of human gender. These considerations are fundamental for understanding the concept of classical in Dermeval Saviani and the consequences for research about the historical development of Mathematics currently found in school curriculums. The intention is to value the appropriation of school mathematics as a humanizing element that becomes accessible through the activity of teaching.

O presente estudo aborda a construção de gênero feminino na escola. Por meio da internalização de valores mediatizados por canções cantadas na educação infantil, buscamos compreender a construção de gênero feminino na criança. Objetivamos, especificamente, verificar a constituição de preconceitos, estereótipos e estigmas de gênero na formação do sujeito escolar - crianças em fase de Educação Infantil. As ferramentas teórico-metodológicas utilizadas vintulam-se à vertente marxista dos estudos culturais e às teorias sócio-histórico-interacionistas do sujeito. Tentamos responder às seguintes questões: Como são constituídos na escola os processos de desigualdade de gênero? De que forma os processos de internalizações constituem na criança, através da cultura produzida e reproduzida no interior da escola, preconceitos, estereótipos e estigmas de gênero? Os resultados - pautados nos referenciais teóricos explorados no estudo, em entrevistas semi-estruturadas com professoras da educação infantil, no cotejamento de canções cantadas em salas de aula - indicam que, apesar do sujeito superar ao longo de sua vida internalizações promovidas na infância por meio de produtos culturais que reproduzem preconceitos, estereótipos e estigmas, a escola não pode se eximir em fazer auto¬crítica acerca dos valores que produz na criança ao explorar os que seleciona para a formação de seu currículo. É preciso, portanto, operar um processo de regulação e controle social dos conteúdos mediatizados pelos produtos culturais explorados nos currículos escolares de creches e pré-escolas do país e fazer valer o espírito crítico quando do planejamento das atividades.

O projeto em foco de Educação Patrimonial é baseado nos elementos do cotidiano e da cultura local da cidade Vigia de Nazaré, no Estado do Pará. O objetivo principal desta investigação é intervir na prática pedagógica dos professores do município, no propósito de dar a estes subsídios metodológicos para trabalhar a Educação Patrimonial nos termos dos PCN e Temas Transversais. Entre outros objetivos, também verificar, a partir da valorização ambiental e do exercício de resgate de memória e da identidade cultural, que conteúdos e possibilidades podem ser trabalhados pedagogicamente, em sala de aula, utilizando a Educação Patrimonial. Para tanto, foram priorizadas oficinas de formação de professores as quais forneceram oportunidades de registros (em cadernos individuais e coletivos), observações, aulas-passeios, aula-museu e montagem de roteiro. Os resultados mostraram que os sujeitos das oficinas puderam perceber a dimensão pedagógica social e cultural da Educação Patrimonial no campo educacional formal e não-formal. Professores, alunos e a comunidade foram sensibilizados para o compromisso conjunto de preservação e conservação do patrimônio cultural e sócio-ambiental local. Apesar dos níveis de destruição ambientalpatrimonial e do sentimento de perda da identidade cultural naquela cidade, o trabalho teve efeito positivo no sentido de os participantes preocuparem-se com a formulação de um novo planejamento que inclua a educação patrimonial nos currículos escolares. O incentivo à Educação Patrimonial teve boa repercussão no entendimento dos professores, pois eles mostraram uma prática viável para levar às escolas, uma reflexão coerente ao articular o papel da escola, justiça social e espaço público, os saberes docentes e coletivos. Concluo, por fim, que a Educação Patrimonial é uma das vias de formação da consciência educadora de modo a experimentar uma abordagem transversal e utilizar recursos patrimoniais como objetos de investigação histórico-cultural e científica.

Belinda’s research examined the adoption of a Health Promoting School (HPS) framework in an International School. The development of a carefully constructed and executed change message, and simultaneously using top-down and bottom-up approaches were critical to initiating change. Alternative strategies for establishing HPS in the international school context were identified.

This thesis explored how differences of opinion, associated with student's perspectives about earthquakes; impacts, influenced the level of geographical thinking displayed during group conversation. The findings formulated a Model for Geographical Reasoning which could be used by teachers to support their translation of the concepts and skills outlined in the Australian Curriculum for Geography into their pedagogical decisions.

The purpose of the research was to study how Finnish lower-stage schools participating in the international network of UNESCO schools, also called the Associated Schools Project (ASP), prepare their students for the future at the level of their school-based curriculums. In the research, the future trends were discussed, and the importance of their consideration in educational practice was explained from a global viewpoint: Based on the examination of today's problematic world state, and development trends characterized by globalization, the challenges and demands set for schooling and education in the future were discussed. Understanding the significance of an individual's action and responsibility was considered to be the central resource for building a more just and sustainable future. The study was grounded on a theoretical model developed by the researcher, which combined the models of Dalin & Rust (1996) and UNESCO (Delors et al. 1996) about future-oriented learning. The model consists of four basic elements of curriculum; "Nature", "Culture", "Myself", and "Others", and four dimension of learning; "Learning to know", "Learning to do", "Learning to live together" and "Learning to be". The model represents the holistic aspect of educational theory, and its aim is to maintain a balance between its different components. The research material composed of ten lower-stage UNESCO schools' school-based curriculums. They were analyzed using the theoretical model by the methology of content analysis. The research results were notably consistent between the different schools. They showed cultural learning and learning concerned with "myself" to be clearly more emphasized than learning referring to nature and other people. In addition, they reflected the central position of subjects, knowledge and skills, thus leaving the development of the pupils' personalities, and particularly learning concerned with living with other people, in a marginal role. The question about whether the schools prepare for the future interms of their curriculums, was discussed in the light of the results. The research offered a way and a model to approach the relationship between education and the future, and to evaluate schools' future-orientation. Based on the results, the schools are suggested to lay more stress on learning concerned with nature and other people, and focus more on developing the mental capasities of their pupils and competencies they need for living with other people. Above all, what the present societies require of schools is education which produces balanced and broadly aware human beings who have the mental strength to face the challenges of the future and abilities to direct it along the lines they desire.

The National Curriculum is a current innovation in Australian schooling history which is likely to have a widespread and long-term impact on schools, teachers and students. This paper has investigated educational change during the early phase of curriculum implementation in a large secondary school, north of Brisbane, Australia. Specifically, this study explored teachers’ perceptions of the principal’s transformational leadership skills during an early stage of the curriculum’s implementation along with teachers’ perceptions of implementing a National Curriculum in their classroom. For this research, sixty-nine teachers were surveyed about their perceptions of their principal’s leadership and their perceptions of the difficulty of implementation of the new curriculum. Findings indicated that teachers with positive perceptions of their principal's leadership also had positive perceptions of their capacity to implement the new National Curriculum. Specifically, teachers who perceived the principal as holding high expectations and providing intellectual stimulation believed they had the capacity to successfully implement curriculum change.

This chapter analyses recent policy reforms in the national history curriculum in both Australia and the Russian Federation. It analyses those emphases in the national curriculum in history that depict new representations and historiography and the ways in which this is foregrounded in History school textbooks. In doing so, it considers the debates about what version of the nation’s past are deemed significant, and what should be transmitted to future generations of citizens. In this discussion of national history curricula, consideration is made of the curriculum’s officially defined status as an instrument in the process of ideological transformation, and nation-building. The chapter also examines how history textbooks are implicit in this process, in terms of reproducing and representing what content is selected and emphasised in a national history curriculum.

Industry-school partnerships (ISPs) are increasingly being recognised as a new way of providing vocational education opportunities. However, there is limited research investigating their impact on systemic (organisational and structural) and human resource (teachers and education managers) capacity to support school to work transitions. This paper reports on a government led ISP, established by the Queensland state government. ISPs across three industry sectors: minerals and energy; building and construction; and aviation are included in this study. This research adopted a qualitative case study methodology and draws upon boundary crossing theory to understand the dynamics of how each industry sector responded to systemic and human resource issues that emerged in each ISP. The main finding being that the systematic application of boundary crossing mechanisms by all partners pro-duced mutually beneficial outcomes. ISPs from the three sectors adopted different models, leveraged different boundary crossing objects but all maintained the joint vision and mutually agreed outcomes. All three ISPs genuinely crossed boundaries, albeit in different ways, and assisted teachers to co-pro-duce industry-based curriculums, share sector specific knowledge and skills that help enhance the school to work transition for school graduates.

This article analyzes the inclusion of the issue of “environmental management” in the department of Production Engineering of the “Alfa” School of Engineering. For this, a case study was conducted at the School of "Alpha" Engineering, with a focus on the area of Production Engineering. Professors were interviewed; documents were reviewed as well as information collected from direct observations by of one of the authors of this article. It was observed that the department of Production Engineering at the Alpha School of Engineering has been developing activities covering all those aspects proposed by Jabbour [8]. "Environmental management" has been included in the curriculums of: (a) Teaching: in the creation of undergraduate courses (obligatory) and graduate Master's degree (optional), (b) Research: formalization of research groups in environmental management for the creation of master’s post graduation research, formalization of environmental management as one of the subjects that should be chosen by candidates for a Professorship in the area of production engineering; (c) Extension: Course in Environmental Management, Symposium (which in recent years has been focusing on environmental issues), creation of sustainability indicators for universities, (d) University Management: initiatives to raise awareness, distribution of reusable mugs and installation of special bins for selective collection in the Campus.
