ResumoA partir do movimento da inclusão escolar, os alunos com necessidades educacionais especiais (NEE) passam a frequentar o ensino regular nas classes comuns, paralelamente amplia-se a presença do professor de apoio à inclusão para atendê-los. Este artigo tem o objetivo de apresentar as sugestões relatadas por professores de apoio visando aprimorar o seu trabalho junto aos alunos com NEE para favorecer o processo de inclusão. O aporte teórico deste texto está sustentado pelos pressupostos da educação inclusiva, aliado com a análises de diversos estudos sobre o papel do professor de apoio no contexto da escola inclusiva. Participaram da pesquisa 67 professores desenvolvendo a função de apoio à inclusão. A coleta dos dados ocorreu por meio da aplicação de um questionário. Entre os resultados se destaca a necessidade de maior investimento na formação continuada para os professores de apoio à inclusão, juntamente com os professores regentes sobre o processo de inclusão dos alunos com NEE, bem como de se estabelecer um trabalho entre eles na perspectiva colaborativa, aliado aos demais profissionais internos e externos à escola e familiares. Palavras-chave: Educação Inclusiva. Serviço de Apoio. Trabalho Colaborativo. AbstractFrom the school inclusion movement, students with special educational needs (SEN) start to attend regular education in common classes, in parallel the presence of the inclusion support teacher is expanded to serve them. This article aims to present the suggestions reported by support teachers in order to improve their work with SEN students to favor the inclusion process. The theoretical contribution of this text is supported by the assumptions of inclusive education, combined with the analysis of several studies on the role of the support teacher in the inclusive school context. 67 teachers engaged the research, developing the role of supporting inclusion. Data collection occurred through the application of a questionnaire. Among the results, the need is highlighted for greater investment in continuing education for teachers to support inclusion together with the governing teachers on the inclusion process of SEN students, as well as establishing a work between them in a collaborative perspective, allied to other internal and external professionals at the school and family.

Methodological Principles

The educative experience of people with disability leads the inter­na­tio­nal debate towards the value of inclusive learning contexts. Nonetheless, the theoretical and methodological principles of an inclusive education approach have to be outlined. Data collected using explorative questionnaires during a five-years survey in an Italian region's schools show a slow evolution of the scholastic context. From the perspective of Special Pedagogy, the qualitative investigation on three macro-dimensions (the diversity perception, the didactic and methodological means, the wellbeing of pupils) reveals an emerging development of solid awareness among teachers. Findings confirm that the inclusion processes at school are attainable only throughout a series of clear methodological elements: 1) a valorising attitude towards diversity; 2) an orienting learning process; 3) a plural and flexible use of both methodologies and strategies; 4) a collaborative work environment; 5) a continuous training process; 6) a deontological approach. These are the principles that allow teachers to support each student in the manifold itineraries of identity fulfilment, encouraging pupils to express their needs and to develop their abilities in a welcoming and participative context.

The Impact

This article discusses the impact of George J. Sánchez’s keynote address “Working at the Crossroads” in making collaborative cross-border projects more academically legitimate in American studies and associated disciplines. The keynote and his ongoing administrative labor model the power of public collaborative work to shift research narratives. “Working at the Crossroads” demonstrated how historians can be involved—as historians—in a variety of social movements, and pointed to the ways these interactions can, and maybe should, shape research trajectories. It provided a key blueprint and key examples for doing historically informed Latina/o studies scholarship with people working outside the university. Judging by the success of Sánchez’s work with Boyle Heights and East LA, projects need to establish multiple entry points, reward participants at all levels, and connect people across generations.I then discuss how I sought to emulate George Sánchez’s proposals in my own work through partnering with labor organizations, developing biographical public art projects with students, and archiving social and cultural histories. His keynote address made a back-and-forth movement between home communities and academic labor seem easy and professionally rewarding as well as politically necessary, especially in public universities.

The Impact

Women’s empowerment has been at the centre of research focus for many decades. Extant literature examined the process, outcome and various challenges. Some claimed substantial success, while others contradicted with evidence of failure. But the success remains a matter of debate due to lack of empirical evidence of actual empowerment of women around the world. The current study aimed to address this gap by taking a case study method. The study critically evaluates 20 cases carefully sampled to include representatives from the entire country of Bangladesh. The study demonstrates popular beliefs about microfinance often misguide even the borrowers and they start living in a fabricated feeling of empowerment, facing real challenges to achieve true empowerment in their lives. The impact of this finding is twofold; firstly there is a theoretical contribution, where the definition of women’s empowerment is proposed to be revisited considering findings from these cases. And lastly, the policy makers at governmental and non-governmental organisations, and multinational donor agencies need to revise their assessment tools for funding.

Willingness To Disclose

The youth constitutes the largest user base of social media networks. While this generation has grown up in a digitally immersed environment, they are still not immune to the dangers the online space bears. Hence, maintaining their privacy is paramount. The present article presents a theoretical contribution, that is based on a review of relevant articles. It sets out to investigate the importance adolescents attribute to online privacy, which is likely to influence their willingness to disclose data. In line with a “new privacy paradox”, information disclosure is seen as unavoidable, given the centrality of social networks to adolescents’ lives. This goes hand in hand with individual privacy management. As individuals often lack knowledge as to how to protect their privacy, it is essential to educate the youth about their possibilities, equipping them with agency and self-responsibilization. This corresponds with a teen-centric approach to privacy as proposed by the TOSS framework.

Music in advertisement is influential and can be emotionally appealing, and it has become a common element and a crucial feature. The choice of which type of music used is a conscious and creative decision that needs to be strategic. While previous studies on music in advertisements have focused on popular songs, this study attempts to extend this research with a focus on the originality of the music and the level of interaction. A content analysis of UK Christmas advertisement and US Super Bowl advertisements was carried. The study introduced a new typology of music in advertisements, making a theoretical contribution by extending previous works on music in advertising. It further offers insight for current practices of the use of music, creative strategies with regards to the selection and integration of music.

While Wood and Flinders’ work to broaden the scope of what counts as “politics” in political science is a needed adjustment to conventional theory, it skirts an important relationship between society, the protopolitical sphere, and arena politics. We contend, in particular, that the language of everyday people articulates tensions in society, that such tensions are particularly observable online, and that this language can constitute the beginning of political action. Language can be protopolitical and should, therefore, be included in the authors’ revised theory of what counts as political participation.
