American schools make rather wide use of teams. Multidisciplinary teams (MDTs), teacher assistance teams, student assistance teams, teaching teams, department teams, grade-level teams, and schoolwide teams are common. Further, teams are thought to be a key catalyst for the implementation of school reform. This article will first review the research on team building in educational settings. Then step-by-step instructions on how to conduct team building will be presented.

Bu makale, Türkiye’de yoğun göç almakta olan Güneydoğu Anadolu Bölgesi’ndeki okullarda, göçmen çocukların okullara dâhil edilmesine yönelik olarak idarecilerin düşünce, inanç ve tutumlarını inceleyen nitel bir araştırmanın sonuçlarını bildirmektedir. Araştırma özelde, okul yöneticilerinin göçmen çocukların kendi okullarında eğitilmesine yönelik tutumlarını, bu eğitimin önünde duran ve okul ikliminden kaynaklanan engelleri ve göçmen çocukların kendini ait hissettikleri bütünleştirici okul iklimleri inşa edilebilmesi için eğitim sistemindeki mevcut fırsatları ortaya koymayı amaçlamıştır. Araştırmada, 18 okul yöneticisinden nitel araştırma yöntemlerinden olan yarı-yapılandırılmış görüşmeler kullanılarak veri toplanmış ve bu veriler tematik analiz yöntemiyle çözümlenmiştir. Araştırma sonucunda (i) okul yöneticilerinin göçmen çocuklara ayrıştırılmış ortamlarda eğitim verilmesini desteklediği ve kendi okullarında eğitim görmelerine dair olumsuz tutumlar beslediği, (ii) yapısal yetersizliklerin ve düşük toplumsal kabul düzeyinin göçmen çocukların eğitimine yönelik olumsuz tutumları önemli ölçüde etkilediği ve (iii) bütünleşik okul kültürlerinin oluşması için paydaşların psiko-sosyal ve yapısal anlamda desteklenmesi gerektiği ortaya çıkmıştır. ENGLISH ABSTRACTMigrant children and school cultures: A suggestion for inclusionThis article reports on the findings of an empirical research investigating the thoughts, beliefs and attitudes towards the inclusion of migrant children in the South-eastern region of Turkey which is currently exposed to intensive migration waves. Specifically, the article explores the attitudes of school administrators towards the education of migrant children in their schools, the barriers to this education stemming from the school culture and the opportunities in the education system to build inclusive school cultures in which migrant children can feel belonging to. The research employed 18 school administrators, utilized semi-structured interviews to collect qualitative data and analyzed them through thematic analysis. Findings showed that (a) school administrators supported education of migrant children in segregated environments and possessed negative attitudes towards their education in public schools; (b) structural limitations and low social acceptance levels affected the negative attitudes towards the education of migrant children and (c) stakeholders needed to be provided with psycho-social and structural support in order to establish inclusive school cultures.  Keywords: Migrant children; inclusive school culture; qualitative research; Turkey

Este artigo apresenta a sistematização das ações de Assistência Estudantil realizadas pelo IF Baiano Campus Santa Inês em 2020 em tempos de pandemia de Covid-19. O objetivo geral consiste em demonstrar a relevância que as ações de Assistência Estudantil têm diante da situação de vulnerabilidade social que vivenciam estudantes que enfrentam a desigualdade social, fruto de um capitalismo perverso, a qual foi agravada no período da pandemia. A grande questão é tentar identificar como em 2020 o IF Baiano Campus Santa Inês tem impactado a vida dos estudantes em situação de vulnerabilidade social durante essa emergência sanitária. A metodologia adotada baseia-se em pesquisa sobre os relatórios das entrevistas e visitas domiciliares, com recorte temporal de 2020; como também na análise das ações desenvolvidas para estes estudantes diante da situação de emergência decorrente da pandemia. Trata-se de um estudo de caso que procura pesquisar a experiência. O recorte teórico baseia-se na concepção de Assistência Estudantil como um direito amparado legalmente pelo Programa Nacional de Assistência Estudantil, e nos estudos sobre desigualdade social na sociedade pós-moderna. E com base na pesquisa da experiência, os dados de Assistência Estudantil serão apresentados, explicitados em sete ações desenvolvidas em 2020. Já as considerações finais procurarão anunciar que o IF Baiano Campus Santa Inês tem feito diferença, impactado a vida de estudantes e contribuído para o fortalecimento da Política de Educação do Estado da Bahia durante a pandemia de Covid-19, principalmente dos estudantes em situação de vulnerabilidade social. Palavras-chave: Desigualdade Social; Neoliberalismo; Capitalismo; Educação Profissional.     Abstract: This article presents the systematization of student assistance actions carried out by IF Baiano Campus Santa Inês in 2020 in Times of pandemic covid-19.

<p>This study is part of a school improvement programme on entrepreneurial education and investigates teachers’ understanding and transmission of entrepreneurial education in two Swedish lower secondary schools, through interviews and observations. Entrepreneurship is a well-established concept within capitalist society, but the interest here is to investigate the transmission of it into pedagogic discourse and communication. Bernstein’s concept of the pedagogic device is used to reason on the process of what happens, and why, when the concept of entrepreneurship is transformed into entrepreneurial education. The results indicate different understandings and connotations on a deeper level, and also show that transmission to colleagues and pupils faces a series of challenges. In practise, the findings show different approaches to entrepreneurial education among individual teachers, but also between schools. This can be explained by gaps in the transmitting process, but also by different school cultures and diverse forms of collegial collaboration, which may affect transmission among colleagues and thus the transmission to pupils. Pupils’ backgrounds may also have an impact on the differences. <strong></strong></p>

The real problem for children of poverty may not be weak academic skills, poor teachers, or scant resources, but a lack of hope that they can alter their life conditions through effort.
