Child Friendly

You get a sense that the new children's hospital, the Royal Alexandra in Brighton, must be pretty spectacular when someone claims to be 'looking forward to visiting it in the future.' The young boy who is so excited about the hospital is 12-year-old Hugo. He is one of nine children and young people (some formerly patients) who make up the children and young people's board at the 'New Alex' as it's affectionately known to the local residents.

Visually Handicapped

A survey of current existing university programs in 1987–1988 that prepare personnel to serve visually handicapped children and youth was sent to all known programs in the mainland United States. Thirty-eight full-time faculty members from 27 universities in 16 states responded to the questionnaire. Data revealed that the future of these programs is at risk, resulting in a shortage of appropriately prepared teachers. Implications are discussed in terms of the current national shortage of teachers of the visually handicapped, the tenuous support for teacher education programs, current levels of funding, and a variety of other factors.

The City

This text was written from a workshop with young people from the city of Novo Hamburgo in the state of Rio Grande do Sul. We problematized the youths and their perspectives of future in an interface of education and work. The study uses the methodology of systematization of experiences to analyze the practices with eight young people in the workshop "Young People in Action" by approaching the themes: future, education and work and thus identify which elements are determinant for creating expectations for the future. The theoretical framework has an important contribution from popular education and sociology. We found that: the school and the family are structural tests that circumscribe the future expectations of young people; the young ones also presented dissonance in their tendencies as to what believe or act and they do not seem to have the habit of making plans about the future. The systematization of experiences showed to be very powerful, since it allows a constant movement of teaching and learning through practice.
