Resumo: Com o objetivo de estimular estudantes do ensino médio de uma instituição federal de ensino a ampliar o interesse nos estudos e os índices de aprendizagem na área da Ciências da Natureza, desenvolveu-se um projeto de ensino que abordou conteúdos de Astronomia, Física e Astronáutica. Seu propósito foi a preparação para a realização da prova da Olimpíada Brasileira de Astronomia e Astronáutica e a participação nas atividades da Mostra Brasileira de Foguetes. Desse modo, o presente trabalho relata o planejamento e as atividades desenvolvidas no referido projeto, bem como os resultados e as experiências ali vivenciadas com os estudantes em ambiente além da sala de aula. O planejamento e a organização do material instrucional e das atividades práticas, assim como sua aplicação e desenvolvimento, tiveram o embasamento nas teorias da aprendizagem de David Ausubel e Lev Vygotsky. Certifica-se que as atividades proporcionaram aos presentes momentos de interação social, aprendizagem, diversão e expectativa. Além disso, houve um número expressivo de alunos premiados com medalhas na Olimpíada Brasileira de Astronomia e Astronáutica e na Mostra Brasileira de Foguetes, levando ao reconhecimento de que a ação de ensino desenvolvida foi exitosa. Palavras-chave: Aprendizagem significativa.

The definition of these subjects had the purpose of helping the students to take the test on Olimpíada Brasileira de Astronomia e Astronáutica [Brazilian Olympiad of Astronomy and Astronautics] well as participating in Mostra Brasileira de Foguetes [the Brazilian Rocket Fair]. Thus, the present work reports the planning and the activities developed by the project, as well as the results and the experiences shared with the students beyond classroom. The planning and the organization of instructional material and practical activities, as well as their application and development, were based on David Ausubel’s and Lev Vygotsky’s learning theories. This is to certify that the reported activities provided the students with moments of social interaction, learning, fun and expectation. In addition, there were a significant number of students who won medals at Brazilian Olympiad on Astronomy and Astronautics and the Brazilian Rocket Fair, leading to the confirmation that the developed teaching project, by and large, has been successful.Keywords: Meaningful learning.

The communication of a mathematical structure from curriculum developers to five teachers and then to six classes of high school students (n=109) was investigated. The content structure of the instructional material and the cognitive structure of the curriculum developers, teachers, and students were examined using Johnson's hierarchical clustering (HICLUS) program. A high degree of correspondence among the cognitive structure of the curriculum developers, the content structure, and the teachers' cognitive structures and between the cognitive structure of a class and that of its particular teacher was indicated. The material was effective, and clear distinctions of cognitive structure existed between high- and low-achievement student groups

Parent Program

A modification of the Paired-Stimuli Parent Program (Florance, 1977) was adapted for the treatment of articulatory errors of visually handicapped children. Blind high school students served as clinical aides. A discussion of treatment methodology, and the results of administrating the program to 32 children, including a two-year follow-up evaluation to measure permanence of behavior change, is presented.

Summary: This article describes a triarchic analysis of an aptitude-treatment interaction in a college-level introductory-psychology course given to selected high-school students. Of the 326 total participants, 199 were selected to be high in analytical, creative, or practical abilities, or in all three abilities, or in none of the three abilities. The selected students were placed in a course that either well matched or did not match their pattern of analytical, creative, and practical abilities. All students were assessed for memory, analytical, creative, and practical achievement. The data showed an aptitude-treatment interaction between students' varied ability patterns and the match or mismatch of these abilities to the different instructional groups.

Identity Exploration

This study examined how social opportunity structure influences identity exploration and commitment of Albanian high school students. A total of 258 students completed a questionnaire that gauged their identity exploration and commitment in three domains: education, occupation, and family. ANOVA results indicated that, overall, students scored highest in exploration in the domain of education and in commitment in the domain of family. Students' exploration and commitment were linked to gender. Albanian female students scored higher than male students in exploration and commitment regarding education and family. Perceived work opportunities in Albania or abroad also significantly moderated participants' exploration in the domain of education and were associated with commitment in education and occupation. As one of the first studies to explore Albanian youth's identity development in relation to social opportunity structure, findings are discussed in light of furthering the field of Albanian adolescent and youth development.

Abstract. This study investigated the effects of politicians’ nonparticipatory and participatory Facebook posts on young people’s political efficacy – a key determinant of political participation. We employed an experimental design, using a sample of N = 125 high school students (15–20 years). Participants either saw a Facebook profile with no posts (control condition), nonparticipatory posts, or participatory posts. While nonparticipatory posts did not affect participants’ political efficacy, participatory posts exerted distinct effects. For those high in trait evaluations of the politician presented in the stimulus material or low in political cynicism, we found significant positive effects on external and collective efficacy. By contrast, for those low in trait evaluations or high in cynicism, we found significant negative effects on external and collective efficacy. We did not find any effects on internal efficacy. The importance of content-specific factors and individual predispositions in assessing the influence of social media use on participation is discussed.
