O texto analisa alguns fragmentos narrativos produzidos por uma professora iniciante das séries iniciais da educação básica durante as reuniões do seu grupo de pesquisa do doutorado. Ao tomar como campo empírico tais fragmentos nosso objetivo foi explorar pistas que nos permitam refletir sobre como indivíduos tornam-se professores/as quando estão inseridos simultaneamente em dois contextos cuja articulação tende a ser marcada por relações conflituosas e de subordinação: a escola e a academia. A aposta que fazemos é a de que a experiência de biografização que resultou nessa escrita contribua para se pensar outros caminhos teóricos possíveis para a interface pesquisa científica - docência na educação básica, contribuindo, assim, para desestabilizar binarismos enraizados no campo educacional. Palavras-chave: Professor iniciante; Experiência docente; Narrativas (auto)biográficas; Educação básica; Pesquisa acadêmica.Becoming a teacher: between academic research and basic educationAbstractThis text analysis some narratives fragments produced by a beginner teacher of basic education, during her doctoral research team meetings. By the time we set such fragments as empirical field, we intended to exploit traces that allow us to reflect on how individuals become teachers when they are inserted simultaneously into two contexts whose articulation tends to be marked by conflicted and subordinated relations: the school and the university. We defend that the biography’s experience, which came out in this written text, contributes to think other theoretical ways to the interface scientific research-teaching in the elementary education, providing, therefore, the destabilization of binarism grounded in the educational field.Keywords: Beginning teacher; Teaching experience; Self-biographical narratives; Basic education.

High percentage of passers in the Licensure Examination for Teachers (LET) indicates the competence of the Teacher Education Program (TEP) graduates of State Colleges and Universities. Licensure tests are usually one of the several criteria necessary to qualify an entry into the teaching profession. This government examination is designed to identify professionals who have the desired level of competency to teach basic education. The study determined the extent of implementation of the TEP of Carlos Hilado Memorial State College (CHMSC) in relation to the academic achievement and performance of graduates in the LET. The descriptive correlational method specifically documentary analysis, with the mean, Pearson Product Moment (PPM) and ANOVA were used in this study. Findings revealed that the Teacher Education Program of CHMSC was well implemented. This concludes that the Bachelor in Elementary Education (BEED) group showed greater confidence in academics, indicating the need to enhance the level of academic preparation of the BSED group underscoring general education and major subjects during pre-service years. It further revealed that a significant relationship existed between the LET performance and the academic achievement of the BEED graduates. This means that the teacher graduates’ academic performance is a significant predictor in the LET. Keywords— Education, academic achievement, licensure examination, Talisay City, Philippines

ResumenEl estudio pretende contrastar las percepciones entre docentes y discentes de las titulaciones de educación en relación a la implantación del Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior (plan Bolonia) en España. Un total de 15 estudiantes de la primera promoción del Grado de Maestro de Educación Primaria de la Universidad de Burgos y 12 profesores con experiencia docente en la misma titulación, tanto en los antiguos planes de la Diplomatura de Magisterio como en los actuales de Grado accedieron a participar. Se empleó una metodología cualitativa, verificando de manera exhaustiva las percepciones de los participantes tras su vivencia personal. Se llevaron a cabo dos grupos de discusión estructurados, uno para los estudiantes y otro para el profesorado. Se observa cómo los estudiantes perciben grandes diferencias entre asignaturas y entre los docentes, sobre todo en los procedimientos de evaluación, la metodología aplicada y el aprendizaje para ser futuros docentes. Por otro lado, los profesores manifiestan que el plan Bolonia no ha conllevado tantos cambios como se pretendían, en parte por el elevado número de estudiantes y la escasa formación permanente. Se concluye la falta de estructura y funcionamiento que regula el plan Bolonia bajo el criterio de estudiantes y profesorado.AbstractThe study aims to contrast the perceptions between teachers and students of education degrees in relation to the implementation of the European Higher Education Area (Bologna plan) in Spain.  A total of 15 students of the first class of bachelor’s degree in elementary education from the University of Burgos and 12 teachers with teaching experience in the same studies, both in the previous degree and in the current. A qualitative design has been used to verify exhaustively participants’ perceptions of their personal experience. Two structured discussion groups were conducted, one for students and one for teachers. They showed how students perceive major differences between subjects and teachers regarding assessment procedures, methodology used and learning acquired to be future teachers. On the other hand, teachers expressed that the Bologna plan has not brought many changes, partly because of the high number of students and the little training. It is concluded the lack of structure and functioning which regulates the Bologna plan according to both, students and teachers.

Purpose The intended purpose of this research note is to share the findings of a needs assessment online survey of speech and hearing professionals practicing in North Carolina to explore their interest in pursuing a research-focused PhD in Communication Sciences and Disorders (CSD) and to document their perceptions of barriers to pursing a PhD in CSD. In view of the well-documented shortage of doctor of philosophy (PhD) faculty to attract, retain, and mentor doctoral students to advance research and to prepare future speech and hearing professionals, CSD faculty must assess the needs, perceptions, and barriers prospective students encounter when considering pursuing a doctoral research degree in CSD. Method The article describes the results of a survey of 242 speech and hearing professionals to investigate their interest in obtaining an academic research-focused PhD in CSD and to solicit their perceived barriers to pursuing a research doctoral degree in CSD. Results Two thirds of the respondents (63.6%) reported that they had considered pursuing a PhD in CSD. Desire for knowledge, desire to teach, and work advancement were the top reasons given for pursuing a PhD in CSD. Eighty-two percent of respondents had no interest in traditional full-time study. Forty-two percent of respondents indicated that they would be interested in part-time and distance doctoral study. The barriers of time, distance, and money emerged as those most frequently identified barriers by respondents. Conclusion The implications inform higher education faculty on how they can best address the needs of an untapped pool of prospective doctoral students in CSD.

Common Situation

Universities and corporates, in Europe and the United States, have come to a win-win relationship to accomplish goals that serve research and industry. However, this is not a common situation in Latin America. Knowledge exchange and the co-creation of new projects by applying academic research to solve company problems does not happen naturally.To bridge this gap, the Design School of Universidad de los Andes, together with Avianca, are exploring new formats to understand the knowledge transfer impact in an open innovation network aiming to create fluid channels between different stakeholders. The primary goal was to help Avianca to strengthen their innovation department by apply design methodologies. First, allowing design students to proposed novel solutions for the traveller experience. Then, engaging Avianca employees to learn the design process. These explorations gave the opportunity to the university to apply design research and academic findings in a professional and commercial environment.After one year of collaboration and ten prototypes tested at the airport, we can say that Avianca’s innovation mindset has evolved by implementing a user-centric perspective in the customer experience touch points, building prototypes and quickly iterate. Furthermore, this partnership helped Avianca’s employees to experience a design environment in which they were actively interacting in the innovation process.

In the last decade, there has been a surge in the number of academic research groups and commercial companies exploiting naturally occurring cosmic-ray muons for imaging purposes in a range of industrial and geological applications. Since 2009, researchers at the University of Glasgow and the UK National Nuclear Laboratory (NNL) have pioneered this technique for the characterization of shielded nuclear waste containers with significant investment from the UK Nuclear Decommissioning Authority and Sellafield Ltd. Lynkeos Technology Ltd. was formed in 2016 to commercialize the Muon Imaging System (MIS) technology that resulted from this industry-funded academic research. The design, construction and performance of the Lynkeos MIS is presented along with first experimental and commercial results. The high-resolution images include the identification of small fragments of uranium within a surrogate 500-litre intermediate level waste container and metal inclusions within thermally treated GeoMelt® R&D Product Samples. The latter of these are from Lynkeos' first commercial contract with the UK National Nuclear Laboratory. The Lynkeos MIS will be deployed at the NNL Central Laboratory facility on the Sellafield site in Summer 2018 where it will embark upon a series of industry trials. This article is part of the Theo Murphy meeting issue ‘Cosmic-ray muography’.

Radical Shift

Responding to the Special Issue call by the Qualitative Social Work: Research and Practice Journal, this article reflects on the challenges faced by a Social Work doctoral student at the University of Edinburgh (Scotland) during the Covid-19 outbreak. Having already commenced their fieldwork through a series of Freirean-style dialogical interviews via Biographical Narrative Interpretive Method (B.I.N.M.), the nationwide-lockdown demanded a drastic deviation from the intended in-person face-to-face interviews with lone parent participants. Significant academic consideration had already been given to the researcher’s existing academic, professional, and social relationships to north and northwest Edinburgh - the geographical focus within the study - via a process of reflexivity prior to commencing the interviews, yet the shift from discussions in neutral venues (e.g. community centres and public cafes) to dialogues conducted exclusively via digital platforms brought about a radical shift in interpersonal dynamics as both researcher and participant were exposed to each other’s homes, families, and other aspects of domestic life. The change in circumstances bore major implications not only for participant recruitment, but also created an unexpected intimacy within the interviewer-interviewee relationships.

AbstractThis paper explains and analyses a virtual gamification experience developed by a teaching group from the University of Catania (Italy) and the University of Cordoba (Spain). A competition based on professional tasks about hydrological planning was implemented in two subjects on Hydrological Sciences. The teaching experience was designed to improve the acquisition of technical knowledge and skills needed for hydrological studies, promote the management of ICT and increase international cooperation between different universities; all aimed at making students more employable. The experience is transferable to different academic levels. Following the philosophy of soccer leagues, the students solved and presented the exercise by teams of two students. Through videoconference, the presentation and the explanation were done so the fans in each country supported their teams. The students found it a very challenging experience but at the same time, some of them were aware of their needs of improving technical knowledge, particularly Geographical Information Systems, and English language skills. Updating of tools and the schedule within the different academic calendar were their main organization handicaps. The main outcome of the presented experience is that social energy and enthusiasm associated to popular activities such as soccer led to improve the interest and the motivation of the students in challenging technical contents as well as teamwork and language transversal competences.
