MySchool:whose school? an Australian investigation of the mediatization of educational policy

In investigating how three Australian newspapers and six school principals interacted with a significant policy initiative, namely the MySchool website, this research argues against homogenous views of both print-media and mediatization. It further argues that while press reporting on education policy is often an opportunity for newspapers to present newspaper-specific views of what policy ought to be, mediatization is not a one-way process. Rather, it is a dynamic one, defined and shaped by struggle and contestation, through which the press may also be subject to change. The research further suggests that strong school leaders play a crucial role in enabling schools to resist mediatized efforts to alter their practice and autonomy.

Interdisciplinaridade e contextualização no novo ensino médio: conhecendo obstáculos e desafios no discurso dos professores de ciências

Nessa pesquisa discuto os desafios do novo ensino médio na ótica dos professores de ciências, sobretudo os que dizem respeito à proposta de ensino pautado na interdisciplinaridade e na contextualização. Para tanto, esse estudo foi desenvolvido tendo em vista responder como os professores estão lidando no contexto de suas práticas com os novos princípios do ensino médio e que desafios precisam ser enfrentados para a implementação da interdisciplinaridade e da contextualização no ensino, na percepção dos professores de ciências. Para abordar as questões norteadoras e atingir os objetivos propostos neste estudo, lancei mão da pesquisa documental, objetivando a leitura da legislação que deu suporte à refonna do ensino médio, e da pesquisa bibliográfica para abordar os conceitos centrais dessa pesquisa. Além disso, entrevistei professores das disciplinas Química, Física e Biologia através da entrevista estruturada. Os resultados da investigação evidenciaram relativo desconhecimento dos princípios da reforma preconizados nos documentos oficiais, pela maioria dos entrevistados. Entretanto, os professores não se mostraram alheios às discussões relacionadas à interdisciplinaridade e a contextualização, o que não significa que esses sujeitos revelem formas complexas de lidar com esses conceitos ou que implementem ações conscientemente elaboradas, tendo em vista o ensino interdisciplinar e contextualizado. Predomina, nas concepções dos professores, uma visão instrumental da interdisciplinaridade e da contextualização, em consonância com a concepção apresentada nos textos oficiais. Quanto aos desafios percebidos pelos professores para a implementação da interdisciplinaridade e da contextualização no ensino, estes ficaram circunscritos à sua dimensão contextual, isto é, os problemas estruturais da escola pública e os limites de espaço e tempo. A dimensão conceitual dos termos em questão, bem como os limites advindos da formação dos educadores, foram perifericamente problematizados.

Plain English: Applying Principles to Home School Written Communication Considering Diverse Families

Schools attempting to engage with the families of all learners, including those with culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds recognize the importance of effective oral and written communication. The aim of this study is to determine if school generated written communication created by an urban school district serving a culturally and linguistically diverse population in the Northeast of the US adhered to the principles of plain English. This exploratory research examined exemplar pieces of written school generated communication, using different forms of linguistic analysis to determine whether the communication contained elements recognized to facilitate or impede the comprehensibility of each piece of communication. Additionally, a text assessment tool which can help schools to analyze the written text communication they send to families was developed and refined.
