Abstract This article describes the methodology underlying the National Curriculum Project. This project, established in response to recommendations of the Committee of Review of the Adult Migrant Education Program (AMEP), is expected to generate curriculum guidelines and teacher support resources for AMEP teachers in Australia by mid-1988. The participation of all levels of the AMEP workforce – professional, administrative and support – is advocated for a project involving research and resources provision for teachers who are responsible for all aspects of the learner-centred, needs-based curriculum process of the AMEP.

Background/Context Among the children of immigrants, one of the populations placed at greatest risk of not finishing high school are the children of migrant farmworkers. Although it is difficult to track graduation rates for migrant students because of their mobility, the U.S. Department of Education estimates that only half of all migrant children finish high school. These children face many of the same obstacles as children of immigrants whose families must cope with severe economic hardships, but they also must deal with additional challenges associated with their families’ migratory lifestyles and living situations. Purpose This article offers some background on the barriers that migrant youth face in school; describes the services provided to these young people by the federally funded Migrant Education Program, focusing on the authors’ research on the role of migrant education resource teachers; and discusses the implications of study findings and related research for improving educational opportunities for low-income children of immigrants. Research Design Findings are drawn from 4 years of ethnographic research in one Northern California high school, where 80% of the Mexican-descent migrant students in the Class of 2002 completed 12th grade, and from a set of comparative interviews carried out with migrant education resource teachers in four additional high schools. The analysis centers on the nature of the relationships that develop between migrant students and migrant teachers, including the teachers’ multiple roles as mentors, counselors, advocates, and role models, and on the kinds of support provided to students that help them navigate successfully through high school. Conclusions/Recommendations Study findings suggest that the migrant students’ school persistence and academic success were due at least in part to the supplemental services they received from the Migrant Education Program and, in particular, to the support provided to them by the migrant resource teachers. A key to the teachers’ effectiveness was the holistic nature of their relationships with students and their ability to connect students with the resources and networks needed for school success. In addition, the migrant teachers’ own identities as academically successful Mexican Americans, many of them the children of migrant farmworkers, increased their ability to serve as role models and to help students build bridges between their multiple worlds. Findings support many of those reported in the literature on successful college outreach programs. Unlike these programs, the Migrant Education Program is not selective; it serves all eligible students. Sometimes you're a teacher, sometimes you're a counselor, sometimes you're a social worker, sometimes you're a health consultant. It's so rewarding and the beauty of this job. — Migrant education resource teacher They are like the symbol that you can do it, too. When I see them, I think: “They did it. Why can't I do it?” — Migrant student

Valid Assessment

This chapter outlines the historical background and current development of music education assessment in China. Following the revision of the national curriculum guidelines in 2011, the chapter analyzes (1) the value of the national standards at different school levels, (2) how the national standards affect teachers and schools, and (3) how much the teachers read/follow the guidelines in China. This chapter investigates and examines how assessment policy and practice are used in Chinese music classrooms from elementary, middle, and high schools. Furthermore, it discusses how local music teachers assess their music students and the effectiveness of the national curriculum guidelines used in music classes. The author determines that the current practice of music assessment at all school levels in China is too basic and not diversified. Designing a valid assessment that allows students at all levels to demonstrate their learning outcomes seems to be necessary for music education in China.

RESUMOEste trabalho buscou trazer a trajetória das Diretrizes Curriculares Nacionais de Educação Física, com o propósito de apontar as transformações da Educação Física enquanto área de formação. Para alcançarmos este objetivo, utilizamos como metodologia a pesquisa bibliográfica, analisando documentos e bibliografias relacionadas ao período da implementação da Educação Física (inicialmente conhecida como Ginástica) no cenário escolar aos dias atuais, com a nova Diretriz no ano de 2018. Após esta análise, observamos que o curso de Educação Física sempre serviu a interesses sociais adversos e constatamos que este curso se encontra num momento de total incompatibilidade curricular com as diretrizes nacionais que o baseiam, ou seja, discrepância entre documentos gerados pelo mesmo órgão (Conselho Nacional de Educação). Por este motivo, torna-se o momento propício para debates onde a classe de trabalhadores(as) de Educação Física consigam caminhar em prol do conhecimento amplo e crítico para todos(as), fomentando uma base fortificada e unida num propósito de uma Educação Física ampliada em seus conhecimentos e atribuições, sem interesses exclusivos do mercado de trabalho.Palavras-chave: Diretrizes. Currículo. Educação Física. ABSTRACTThis work sought to bring the trajectory of the National Curriculum Guidelines for Physical Education, with the purpose of pointing out the transformations of Physical Education, as a training area. To achieve this goal, we used bibliographic research as a methodology, analyzing documents and bibliographies related to the period of implementation of Physical Education (initially known as Gymnastics) in the school scenario to the present day, with the new Guideline in 2018. After this analysis, we note that the Physical Education course has always served adverse social interests and we note that this course is at a time of total curricular incompatibility with the national guidelines on which it is based, that is, discrepancy between documents generated by the same body (Conselho Nacional de Educação) . For this reason, it becomes a propitious moment for debates where the class of Physical Education workers is able to walk in favor of broad and critical knowledge for all, fostering a fortified and united base in a purpose of Physical Education expanded in their knowledge and duties, without exclusive interests in the labor market.Keywords: Guidelines.

Abstract: Introduction: The palliative care (PC) approach is a care modality recommended by the World Health Organization. Suffering and the process of dying are present in everyday clinical practice, affecting people with life-threatening diseases. However, the predominant model of teaching in Brazilian medical schools does not include palliative care. Objectives: The aim of the study was to get to know the Brazilian medical schools that include PC in their curriculum, and how it has been taught. Methods: Descriptive and exploratory study, carried out by searching for medical schools with disciplines in PC, through the analysis of the course syllabi available in the curricular matrices on the official websites of higher education institutions from August to December 2018. They were analyzed considering the offered period of the PC content, workload, scenario, and type of discipline (elective or mandatory). Results: 315 schools registered with the Ministry of Education were found, and only 44 of them (14%) offer courses in PC. These schools are distributed throughout 11 Brazilian states, of which 52% are located in the Southeast region, 25% in the Northeast, 18% in the South, 5% in the Midwest, and none in the North region. The predominant modality of the type of discipline in PC was mandatory in 61% of schools. Most Brazilian medical schools are private entities (57%), a similar percentage to the total number of medical schools identified with the teaching of PC. This course takes place in the 3rd and 4th years of the course; in most schools, the workload was 46,9 hours. The predominant scenario is the classroom, while some institutions provide integration between teaching community service and medical practice. The program contents are diverse, including thanatology, geriatrics and finitude, humanization, bioethics, pain, oncology and chronic diseases. Conclusion: PC education in Brazil is insufficient, which represents a barrier to the training of doctors in line with the recommendations of international entities, the National Curriculum Guidelines and legal frameworks within the scope of SUS. Investments by medical entities and government agencies are necessary to increase teaching in PC and the consequent qualification of medical training.

O presente artigo tem como objetivo abordar e analisar a formação da identidade pessoal e social da criança na Educação Infantil estabelecidos nas atuais Diretrizes e Referenciais Curriculares Nacionais da Educação Infantil. Procura, também, identificar a importância das brincadeiras e suas interações, dos brinquedos para o desenvolvimento da formação desta identidade e do papel do professor e da professora nesse processo. Esta pesquisa configura-se como exploratória qualitativa e tem como procedimento técnico a análise dos documentos legais como o Referencial Curricular Nacional para a Educação Infantil: formação pessoal e social (BRASIL, 1998), as Diretrizes curriculares nacionais para a educação infantil (BRASIL, 2010) e os Brinquedos e brincadeiras nas creches: manual de orientação pedagógica (BRASIL, 2012). Entendemos que os textos e as diretrizes legais, mesmo sendo referências nacionais, são significados no seu contexto e, por mais que se procure universalizar práticas, estas só se revelam na ação dos próprios sujeitos que o compõem e lhe dão sentido e significado. Ou seja, por mais que as diretrizes ou as orientações legais sejam prescritivas e universais, quem dá sentido ao texto e ao conhecimento é o próprio sujeito que o vive. Palavras-chave: Identidade. Criança. Formação pessoal e social. Brinquedos.ABSTRACTThis article addresses and analyzes one of the objectives of Early Childhood Education established in the current National Curriculum Guidelines and Frameworks for Early Childhood Education, which is the formation of the child’s personal and social identity. It emphasizes the importance of the games, toys and their interactions for the development of the formation of the personal and social identity and the role of the teacher in this process. This research is configured as a qualitative and thematic research as an analysis of legal documents as the National Curricular Reference for Childhood Education: personal and social formation (BRASIL, 1998), National Curricular Guidelines for Early Childhood Education (BRASIL, 2010), The toys and games in the nursery: pedagogical guidance manual. (BRAZIL, 2012). We understand that texts and legal laws, even if they are national references, are meaningful in their context and therefore are universal practices, these are revealed in the action of more rigorous than the right of speech and meaning. That is, as rough as legal guidelines are prescribed and universal, what gives meaning to the text and to knowledge is the subject who lives.Keywords: Identity. Child. Personal and social formation.

An inquiry science-based education is commonly followed in a variety of educational contexts around the world and is a key parameter in various national curriculum guidelines. The impetus of this chapter is to record the initial and final reactions of science teachers participating in a series of one-year action research and training program that took place in the University of Crete (UoC) in 2013-2016, identify their perception of the first training course, and explore the impact this data had on the program's redesign for the following training session by the technical board. Teacher reactions and responses regarding what they thought had, and had not, worked well in their classes were taken into account prior to re-designing the training program that the new teachers were going to join the following year. Looking into the general benefits as well as challenges, the authors also examined the overall effect of the UoC IBSE training program to participants as reported by both students and teachers.
