Resumo: Com este artigo, apresentam-se os resultados de uma proposta realizada no âmbito do processo de ensino-aprendizagem sobre a paisagem, procurando ampliar a indicação do papel do "sentimento da paisagem” como mecanismo de construção de leituras geográficas por estudantes do ensino médio. Neste quesito, a interpretação da paisagem como portadora de dimensões econômicas e políticas estruturantes é complementada com a inserção afetiva erguida através da poética, permitindo a ampliação das exposições dos significados da paisagem para os estudantes. Para isto, utilizou-se do desenvolvimento de aula expositiva, seguida da propositura fotográfica dos locais de identificação afetiva, realizando posteriormente descrições críticas das paisagem e, conjuntamente, poesias sobre os sentimentos gerados por elas. Obteve-se, então, a possibilidade de compreender a análise ofertada pelos discentes e suas raízes valorativas no contexto geográfico, assentindo a ampliação das fronteiras de entendimento entre a relação sociedade/natureza em diferentes escalas, além de ratificar a fotografia e poesia como caminho para o ensino de geografia.Palavras-chave: Categorias Geográficas.

Abstract This study assessed the knowledge and perception of the role of water supply, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) in the containment of Ebola virus disease (EVD) among secondary school students in Ibadan, Nigeria. A cross-sectional study of 420 students from eight schools (public and private) in Ibadan was conducted. A semi-structured questionnaire and an observational checklist were used to collect data. Data were analysed using descriptive statistics, Chi-square test and logistic regression at 5% level of significance. Overall, 60% reported EVD was airborne. A majority (71%) of the respondents had good knowledge of EVD, while a majority (92%) had a good perception of the role of WASH in EVD containment. Class of respondents was significantly (p = 0.045) associated with knowledge of WASH. Although schools had satisfactory sanitary facilities, only a few (21%) sustained good hygiene practices at the end of the Ebola outbreak in Nigeria. Our findings revealed suboptimal knowledge on transmission of EVD, and unsustainable hygiene practices among secondary students post-Nigeria's EVD outbreak. High priority should be given to hygiene education among educators and students. Implementation of monitoring and evaluation of hygiene behaviour among secondary school students should also be a priority.

The present investigation aims to analyze the effect of motivation on students’ causal attributions to choose or abandon chemistry when it first becomes optional in the secondary education curriculum in Spain. Attributions to the effect of the family and to the teacher and classroom methodology were found to be common predictors of the choice to all the students in the sample. However, our analyses point to a significant effect of the students’ motivation in other types of attributions. In the case of at-risk of abandonment students, specific causal attributions to the effect of friends and to the subject's relationship with mathematics were found. On the other hand, the effect of media was a significant predictor only in the case of highly-motivated students. Our study provides several suggestions for teachers, schools, and administrations to design counseling strategies to help students make the right choices.
