Resumen La estructura corporal del escolar con edad entre los siete y ocho años está en un continuo crecer y el maestro de educación física puede constituirse en un factor para potencializar el desarrollo de su Coordinación Motriz (CM); por medio de programas de intervención podría ayudar a mejorar sus competencias físicas, sociales y académicas. Este trabajo investigativo tuvo por objetivo, establecer la incidencia de un programa de juegos pueriles sobre tal coordinación en una muestra de 96 alumnos de grado segundo de un colegio colombiano. La metodología incluyó un enfoque cuantitativo y un diseño experimental; los datos fueron recolectados con el test de Capón sobre los escolares que conformaron dos grupos: experimental y control. La información fue procesada con el software Geogebra. Los resultados del pre-test evidenciaron bajos niveles en la CM de los participantes; mientras que, los puntajes del post-test fueron significativamente mayores y reflejaron niveles altos en dicha coordinación para el grupo de experimentación, como producto de aplicar el programa de juegos pueriles. En conclusión, este programa incide favorablemente sobre la mejora de la CM de los escolares y genera información adicional para formular programas de intervención estudiantil. Abstract The body structure of the schoolboy aged between seven and eight years is constantly growing and the physical education teacher can become a factor to enhance the development of his Motor Coordination (CM); Through intervention programs it could help improve their physical, social and academic skills. The objective of this research work was to establish the incidence of a childish games program on such coordination in a sample of 96 second-grade students from a Colombian school. The methodology included a quantitative approach and an experimental design; The data were collected with the Capón test on the schoolchildren who made up two groups: experimental and control. The information was processed with the Geogebra software. The results of the pre-test showed low levels in the CM of the participants; while, the post-test scores were significantly higher and reflected high levels in said coordination for the experimentation group, as a product of applying the childish games program. In conclusion, this program has a favorable impact on the improvement of the CM of schoolchildren and generates additional information to formulate student intervention programs.

Promoção intercultural de quíchua entre crianças migrantes de língua quéchua e crianças da cidade no Peru Estudamos os efeitos da promoção da interculturalidade como abordagem musical pedagógica na diversidade linguística oral quéchua no início da escolaridade. Para este fim, desenvolvemos o tipo de desenho abordagem quantitativa quasi-experimental ao fim propomos o agrupamento de alunos da segunda série do ensino regular básica (grupo experimental (alto-falantes de quíchua) = 27; grupo controle (urbanos) = 26) - (X (média) = 7,6, DP (Desvio padrão) = 1,2), que concordaram em desenvolver sua diversidade intercultural através da técnica de troca de estudantes. Elaboramos um teste de múltipla execução da diversidade linguística oral (ad hoc) para a coleta de dados. Os resultados mostram que o método de pedagogia intercultural se desenvolveu através da estratégia de intercâmbio escolar: a) diversidade linguística em crianças falantes de quíchua, b) crenças e valorização em crianças da cidade; no entanto, os falantes de quéchua apreciavam muito mais suas origens andinas. Na aprendizagem da língua quéchua não houve diferenças entre os grupos, portanto o programa não teve efeitos devido às limitações temporais e curriculares. Finalmente, os falantes de quíchua conseguiram expressar significados culturais através do quíchua, graças ao ambiente intercultural desenvolvido pelo experimento de intercâmbio.

Estudiamos los efectos del fomento de la interculturalidad como enfoque pedagógico musical en la diversidad lingüística oral quechua en los inicios de escolaridad. Para este fin, desarrollamos el tipo de diseño cuasi experimental de enfoque cuantitativo, planteamos la agrupación de estudiantes de segundo grado de educación básica regular (grupo experimental (quechua hablantes) = 27; grupo control (citadinos) = 26) – (X (promedio) = 7,6; D.E. (desviación estándar) = 1,2), los cuales aceptaron desarrollar su diversidad intercultural mediante la técnica del intercambio estudiantil. Elaboramos una prueba de ejecución múltiple de diversidad lingüística oral (ad hoc) para el recojo de datos. Los resultados demuestran que el método de pedagogía intercultural desarrolló mediante estrategia de intercambio escolar: a) la diversidad lingüística en niños quechua hablantes, b) creencias y valoración en niños citadinos; sin embargo, los sujetos quechua hablantes apreciaron mucho más sus orígenes alto andinos. En el aprendizaje de la lengua quechua no se evidenciaron diferencias entre grupos, por lo que el programa no surtió efectos debido a limitaciones temporales y curriculares. Finalmente, los sujetos quechua hablantes lograron expresar significados culturales a través del quechua, gracias al entorno intercultural desarrollado por el experimento de intercambio. Palabras clave: Interculturalidad, Diversidad Lingüística, Lengua Quechua, Intercambio Escolar, Fomento Cultural.   Intercultural promotion of quechua among quechua-speaking migrant children and city children in Peru                                               ABSTRACT. We study the effects of the promotion of interculturality as a pedagogical musical approach in Quechua oral linguistic diversity at the beginning of schooling. For this purpose, we developed the quasi-experimental type of quantitative approach design, we proposed the grouping of second grade students of regular basic education (experimental group (quechua speakers) = 27, control group (city dwellers) = 26) - (X (average) = 7.6, SD (standard deviation) = 1.2), who agreed to develop their intercultural diversity through the technique of student exchange. We elaborated a test of multiple execution of oral linguistic diversity (ad hoc) for the data collection. The results show that the method of intercultural pedagogy developed through school exchange strategy: a) linguistic diversity in quechua-speaking children, b) beliefs and valuation in city children; however, quechua speakers appreciated their high Andean origins much more. In the learning of the quechua language there were no differences between groups, so the program did not have effects due to temporal and curricular limitations. Finally, the quechua speakers managed to express cultural meanings through quechua, thanks to the intercultural environment developed by the exchange experiment.

Abstract Introduction: The majority of injury deaths occur outside health facilities. However, many low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) continue to lack efficient Emergency Medical Services (EMS). Understanding current first aid practices and perceptions among members of the community is vital to strengthening non-EMS, community-based prehospital care. Study Objective: This study sought to determine caregiver first aid practices and care-seeking behavior for common household child injuries in rural communities in Ghana to inform context-specific interventions to improve prehospital care in LMICs. Methods: A cluster-randomized, population-based household survey of caregivers of children under five years in a rural sub-district (Amakom) in Ghana was conducted. Caregivers were asked about their practices and care-seeking behaviors should children sustain injuries at home. Common injuries of interest were burns, laceration, choking, and fractures. Multiple responses were permitted and reported practices were categorized as: recommended, low-risk, or potentially harmful to the child. Logistic regression was used to examine the association between caregiver characteristics and first aid practices. Results: Three hundred and fifty-seven individuals were sampled, representing 5,634 caregivers in Amakom. Mean age was 33 years. Most (79%) were mothers to the children; 68% had only completed basic education. Most caregivers (64%-99%) would employ recommended first aid practices to manage common injuries, such as running cool water over a burn injury or tying a bleeding laceration with a piece of cloth. Nonetheless, seven percent to 56% would also employ practices which were potentially harmful to the child, such as attempting manual removal of a choking object or treating fractures at home without taking the child to a health facility. Reporting only recommended practices ranged from zero percent (burns) to 93% (choking). Reporting only potentially harmful practices ranged from zero percent (burns) to 20% (fractures). Univariate regression analysis did not reveal consistent associations between various caregiver characteristics and the employment of recommended only or potentially harmful only first aid practices. Conclusions: Caregivers in rural Ghanaian communities reported using some recommended first aid practices for common household injuries in children. However, they also employed many potentially harmful practices. This study highlights the need to increase context-appropriate, community-targeted first aid training programs for rural community populations of LMICs. This is important as the home-based care provided for injured children in these communities might be the only care they receive.

ResumoAcidentes na infância são comuns de acontecer no ambiente escolar havendo a necessidade de conhecimentos prévios sobre primeiros socorros pelos professores da educação básica. A falta de conhecimento técnico-científico adequado pode levar a condutas inapropriadas no atendimento de crianças vítimas de acidentes, acarretando em sequelas e podendo evoluir para a morte. Esse estudo tem como objetivo identificar os conhecimentos sobre primeiros socorros de professores que atuam no ambiente escolar frente a situações de urgência e emergência. Trata-se de uma revisão integrativa da literatura. A pesquisa foi realizada no período de novembro de 2019, nas bases de dados: Literatura Latino-Americana e do Caribe Ciências da Saúde, Banco de Dados em Enfermagem e Medical Literature Analysis and Retrievel System Online, por meio da Biblioteca Virtual de Saúde., utilizando-se os descritores em ciências da saúde: “Knowledge”, “School teachers” e “First aid”. Foram incluídos oito estudos, publicados no período de 2014-2019. Os educadores apresentam conhecimento inadequado sobre primeiros socorros diminuindo a chance dos alunos receberem assistência adequada em caso de acidente na escola. Faz-se importante o treinamento dos professores escolares quanto às práticas de primeiros socorros, assim como, o reconhecimento de ações voltadas para prevenção e promoção dos agravos na saúde do escolar, objetivando melhor qualidade de vida das crianças. Palavras-chave: Primeiros Socorros. Saúde Escolar. Conhecimento. Professores Escolares. AbstractAccidents in childhood are common to happen in the school environment with the need for prior knowledge about first aid by teachers of basic education. The lack of adequate technical-scientific knowledge can lead to inappropriate conduct in the care of children who are victims of accidents, resulting in sequelae and can evolve to death. This study aims to identify the knowledge about first aid by teachers who work in the school environment in the face of urgent and emergency situations. It is an integrative literature review. The research was carried out in the period of November 2019, in the databases: Latin American and Caribbean Literature Health Sciences, Nursing Database and Medical Literature Analysis and Retrievel System Online, through the Virtual Health Library., using the health science descriptors: “Knowledge”, “School teachers” and “First aid”. Eight studies, published in the period 2014-2019, were included. Educators have inadequate knowledge of first aid, decreasing the chance of students receiving adequate assistance in the event of an accident at school. It is important to train school teachers in first aid practices, as well as to recognize actions aimed at preventing and promoting health problems in schoolchildren, aiming at a better quality of life for children.

The Social

In the new national core curriculum for Finnish preschool and basic education, rationales for supporting pupil participation are framed by the goal of developing school communities by listening to pupils’ perspectives, the social nature of teaching and learning and pupils’ participatory role in planning, implementing and evaluating their own learning. Also in educational literature, listening to pupils’ perspectives is seen as the first step of participation. Framed by these rationales, this article is based on a 6-week-long participatory learning project in one second-grade classroom in Finland. The research group of 8-year-olds included 11 girls and 10 boys. In this study, we used diamond ranking and peer interviews as mediating tools in listening to the pupils’ perspectives. In the article, we describe how a diamond ranking and a peer interview worked as a tool in capturing pupils’ perspectives. Two questions guided the research work: (1) How did diamond ranking and the peer interview work together as a method to improve teacher’s understanding from the pupils’ perspectives? and (2) How did diamond ranking and the peer interview work together as a method to promote pupils’ participation? In this study, the second graders were able to implement diamond ranking. This activity was used as a tool to stimulate pupils’ perspectives that were then captured in peer interviews. The methods provided important information about the pupils and helped the teacher to understand their perspectives. Diamond ranking and peer interviews also revealed information that was not related to pedagogical practices but indicated the sense of relatedness among pupils. In this study, the process of peer interviews was a child-led practice, while the process of diamond ranking activity was teacher-oriented. The method would have served pupils’ participation better if pupils had been more involved in the data collection.

Visual Thinking

The aim of the research is to define the degree to which visual thinking skills are achieved in the science curriculum among students of the basic education stage (grades two and six). To achieve the goal, the researcher used a list of visual thinking skills especially for the sixth grade textbook consisting of 30 criteria distributed on 7 axes (skills) A list of visual thinking skills for the second grade book, consisting of 34 criteria distributed into 7 axes (skills) for the sixth grade book, consisting of 30 criteria distributed into 7 axes (skills). The results of the research concluded that the skills are available in the second and sixth grades as follows: The visual discernment skill was of medium rank 1, visual proficiency 2 was also moderate, visual translation skill 3 moderate, visual contemplation 4 moderate, visual observation skill 5 weak, visual imagination 6 poor, and visual closure 7 poor. In light of the search results, we recommend the following: 1- Attention by the curriculum authors to the skills of visual thinking by conducting full-fledged teaching courses for these skills. 2- Educating science teachers about visual thinking skills, and holding training courses in employing visual thinking skills in science classes, in a way that serves the achievement of national standards for education in Syria.

Task Level

Purpose The purpose of this systematic review was to determine evidence of a cognate effect for young multilingual children (ages 3;0–8;11 [years;months], preschool to second grade) in terms of task-level and child-level factors that may influence cognate performance. Cognates are pairs of vocabulary words that share meaning with similar phonology and/or orthography in more than one language, such as rose – rosa (English–Spanish) or carrot – carotte (English–French). Despite the cognate advantage noted with older bilingual children and bilingual adults, there has been no systematic examination of the cognate research in young multilingual children. Method We conducted searches of multiple electronic databases and hand-searched article bibliographies for studies that examined young multilingual children's performance with cognates based on study inclusion criteria aligned to the research questions. Results The review yielded 16 articles. The majority of the studies (12/16, 75%) demonstrated a positive cognate effect for young multilingual children (measured in higher accuracy, faster reaction times, and doublet translation equivalents on cognates as compared to noncognates). However, not all bilingual children demonstrated a cognate effect. Both task-level factors (cognate definition, type of cognate task, word characteristics) and child-level factors (level of bilingualism, age) appear to influence young bilingual children's performance on cognates. Conclusions Contrary to early 1990s research, current researchers suggest that even young multilingual children may demonstrate sensitivity to cognate vocabulary words. Given the limits in study quality, more high-quality research is needed, particularly to address test validity in cognate assessments, to develop appropriate cognate definitions for children, and to refine word-level features. Only one study included a brief instruction prior to assessment, warranting cognate treatment studies as an area of future need. Supplemental Material https://doi.org/10.23641/asha.12753179
