Educational Formation

Este artigo tem como objetivo analisar o contexto de formação de jovens futuros professores de matemática em processo de iniciação à docência, no que tange os sentidos atribuídos à experiência com o uso da tecnologia por um aluno bolsista, que se dá na relação entre teoria e prática, contextualizadas no âmbito do Programa Institucional de Iniciação à Docência (PIBID). Para o desenvolvimento desse estudo problematizamos: Quais os desafios à inicialização da prática docente em matemática, focado na comunicação matemática? Dentre outros resultados, destacamos que o professor iniciante se constitui numa relação conflituosa entre a formação especifica e pedagógica. Pontuamos ainda, a formação inicial a exigência e a necessidade de um novo perfil de aluno-professor, que nos leva a pensar na formação educacional com a tecnologia e as atividades colaborativas. Tais ambientes educacionais com o uso de tecnologia e prática colaborativa, exigem sem dúvida, a repensar uma nova postura e ações ao enfrentamento da inicialização à docência.   This article aims to analyze the context of training of young future teachers of mathematics in the process of initiation to teaching, regarding the meanings attributed to the experience with the use of technology by a student stock market, which occurs in the relationship between theory and practice, contextualized in the scope of the Institutional Program of Initiation to Teaching. For the development of this study, we discuss: What are the challenges to the initiation of teaching practice in mathematics, focused on mathematical communication? Among other results, we emphasize that the beginning teacher is a conflicting relationship between specific and pedagogical training. We also point out the initial formation of the requirement and the need for a new student-teacher profile, which leads us to think about educational formation with technology and collaborative activities. Such educational environments with the use of technology and collaborative practice, undoubtedly require rethinking a new attitude and actions to confront initialization to teaching.

The Relationship

A fundamental component in professional education is the link between theory and practice. However, students in professional education programmes experience a lack of coherence between theory and practice which is often described as theory practice gap. The aim of this study was to explore the relationship between theory and practice in MA Education Programmes offered by International Islamic University and to contribute with knowledge about how to bridge the gap between theory and practice in teacher education programme. Data were obtained through focus group interview with 40 MA Education female students who completed their four months teaching practice in December 2011. Data reveal that student teachers are quite satisfied with their pedagogical preparation and find difference in theory and practice in teacher education institutions and practice schools in Pakistan. Data indicate that student teachers were not allowed by schools to implement their learnt teaching strategies.

The Relationship

The applied science model of teacher education implies that the relationship between theory and practice is unidirectional. In this study, however, the researchers make a case in the opposite direction, i.e., they believe that professional practice can also shed some light on theories of language teaching. Since narrative inquiry is best for capturing the detailed stories or life experiences of a single life, the researchers took it as a legitimate mode of research to uncover and make sense of the professional experience of an experienced and professionally popular language teacher. Analysis revealed six themes, which reflect the participant’s professional beliefs. Among other things, she believes that optimizing teaching practice depends on maximizing learner involvement, focusing on responsive teaching, leaving room for practice, and personalizing practice. The study has clear implications for practitioners and teacher educators.

The article is devoted to the problem of social intelligence of young teachers, which is considered as the basis for the success of professional activities. The emphasis is put on studying the relationship between the level of development of social intelligence and the characteristics of pedagogical communication of a beginning teacher. The article presents the results of a pilot study that was carried out to identify a possible relationship between the mentioned parameters. The experiment involved young teachers (with no more than three years of work experience) of general educational institutions and final-year students of the university who had completed teaching practice. The level of development of social intelligence was studied with the help of the "Social Intelligence" test created by J. Guildford and M. Saliven (Russian adaptation by E.S. Mikhailova); the style of pedagogical communication was identified by the test called "Diagnostic methods of the styles of pedagogical communication" (authors: N.P. Fetiskin, V.V. Kozlov, G.M. Manuilov). The obtained data allows us for the conclusion that there is a relationship between the level of development of the social intelligence of beginning teachers and the style (model) of pedagogical communication used by them: teachers with more developed social intelligence use the most constructive and optimal models of pedagogical communication and interaction with students. The results of the research can be helpful in improving the quality of pedagogical education, professional training of students – teachers-to-be.

Background: The Norwegian framework for teacher education serves to both provide a pathway for professional qualification and lay a foundation for educators to meet present and future challenges. Complementing work with teacher educators in the university classroom, a key focus of the framework is pre-service teaching practice, which aims to increase student teachers' knowledge, skills, and competencies via a triangular partnership among student teachers and teacher educators both in pre-service teaching practice and on campus. The aim of the study was to interview student teachers to investigate how their pre-service teaching practice can be better organized to meet these goals. Methods: Our data is based on six semistructured interviews and one focus group with six student teachers situated at the Oslo and Akershus University College and analyzed using inductive content analysis. The study was approved at the Norwegian Data Directorate. Results: The analysis revealed five categories that influence student teachers` pedagogical insight through pre-service teaching practice. These five categories were: Reflection plenaries on regular basis, the understanding of the relationship between theory and practice, teacher educators as mentors, and different competence and asymmetry in the mentoring process. Conclusions: To optimize pedagogical insight through pre-service teaching practice, our results emphasize the need to ensure quality throughout pre-service teacher training and clear guidelines for teacher educators. In particular, our sample of student teachers sought greater supervision and focus from teacher educators on the relationship between theory and practice, via use of reflection plenaries, and found most helpful pedagogical context that emphasized equal partnership with their teacher educators.

Teacher training is a theme that permeates the field of studies in the field of education, as well as educational policies. Among the policies, we highlight the Institutional Teaching Initiation Scholarship Program (PIBID), which consists of an inductive action in the training of teachers aiming to value and improve teacher training. The programis developed in partnership with Universities and Basic Education Schools and involves graduates, supervisors (basic education teachers), area coordinators and teachers who work in institutional coordination and in the management of educational processes (higher education teachers). This article is part of a qualitative research that sought to investigate the relationship between training and teaching practice in theperception of the area coordinators of PIBID / Federal University of Ouro Preto (UFOP). In this article, we will present the analysis of the data collected, through questionnaires and interviews, referring to the category: “What it is to be a teacher and teacher trainer”. Among the perceptions, it was possible to identify that the PIBID / UFOP area coordinators are in permanent training and the PIBID was a possibility of approaching the public school of basic education. The study allowed us to conclude that there is a formative reciprocity among the participants, which as they form. The area coordinators reinforced the conception of knowledge and pedagogical tact in line with the inseparation of theory and practice, the work of the trainer based on dialogue, commitment to public education, teacher training, teaching and learning and the constant reassessment of its own practice.

The Relationship

Autobiographic and narrative research has recently grown in stature in the field of social sciences. Inspired by Asian TESOL researchers’ critical analyses of self-stories, this paper attempts to reflect upon the author’s personal history in relation to English and discuss ways in which she can position herself as both an English learner and a non-native English speaker (NNES) teacher. The self-reflection and discussion is followed by an argument for performativity, a notion drawing on poststructuralism to understand language itself and the global spread of English. This paper, itself a performative act conducted by a secondary school teacher, exemplifies the concept. The non-academic schoolteacher’s very act of writing in an academic journal aims to contribute to questioning assumptions underlying the relationship between theory and practice and to reconstituting the academic fields of applied linguistics and TESOL. 近年、自伝的かつ語りを含む研究が社会科学の分野で活発になってきている。本稿では、TESOLを専門とする、あるアジア人研究者が彼女たち自身の物語を素材として実施した批判的分析に着想を得て、英語にまつわる自己の歴史を振り返り、英語学習者としての、またNNESの英語教師としてのポジショナリティをどこに位置づけるのかという問題について議論する。さらに、この批判的自己内省を経て、言語そのもの、あるいは英語という言語の地球規模的広がりを理解するために、ポスト構造主義の概念であるパフォーマティヴィティについて検証する。なお、本稿これ自体がある高校教師によるパフォーマティヴな実践であることに言及しておきたい。研究者ではなく、一高校教師が学術雑誌に投稿することを通じ、理論と実践の関係性の背後にある前提に疑問を投げかけ、その結果、応用言語学やTESOLという学問分野の再構築に貢献できることを希望している。

Purpose Dave Snowden has been an important voice in knowledge management over the years. As the founder and chief scientific officer of Cognitive Edge, a company focused on the development of the theory and practice of social complexity, he offers informative views on the relationship between big data/analytics and KM. Design/methodology/approach A face-to-face interview was held with Dave Snowden in May 2015 in Auckland, New Zealand. Findings According to Snowden, analytics in the form of algorithms are imperfect and can only to a small extent capture the reasoning and analytical capabilities of people. For this reason, while big data/analytics can be useful, they are limited and must be used in conjunction with human knowledge and reasoning. Practical implications Snowden offers his views on big data/analytics and how they can be used effectively in real world situations in combination with human reasoning and input, for example in fields from resource management to individual health care. Originality/value Snowden is an innovative thinker. He combines knowledge and experience from many fields and offers original views and understanding of big data/analytics, knowledge and management.

The importance of ethical behavior in consumers has never been so evident, and in recent years, researchers have generated a great deal of knowledge about ethical consumption. The search for happiness in consumption has been a recurrent line of research by academics of the management and, mainly, the marketing fields. Our study analyses the relationship between ethical and sustainable behavior in consumption and the achievement of consumer happiness. Employing structural equations, the findings of the study suggest that there is a positive relationship between consumers’ predisposition toward sustainable behavior and happiness. In addition, the findings indicate that, when there are reasons to justify unethical behavior in consumption, the consumer also manages to be happier. Important implications for theory and practice are derived from the results. Emphasizing the benefits of sustainable consumption for enhancing happiness might instigate sustainable consumption, especially in the case of those consumers who do not have a positive attitude toward sustainable consumption.

Universities strive to ensure quality education focused on the diversity of the student body. According to experiential learning theory, students display different learning preferences. This study has a three-fold objective: to compare learning styles based on personal and educational variables, to analyze the association between learning styles, the level of academic performance, and consistency of performance in four assessment methods, and to examine the influence of learning dimensions in students with medium-high performance in the assessment methods. An interdisciplinary approach was designed involving 289 psychology, early childhood education and primary education students at two universities in Spain. The Learning Style Inventory was used to assess learning styles and dimensions. The assessment methods used in the developmental psychology course included the following question formats: multiple-choice, short answer, creation-elaboration and an elaboration question on the relationship between theory and practice. Univariate analysis, multivariate analysis, and binomial logistic models were computed. The results reveal Psychology students to be more assimilative (theoretical and abstract), while early childhood and primary education students were evenly distributed among styles and were more divergent and convergent (practical) in absolute terms. In addition, high scores in perception (abstract conceptualization) were associated with a high level of performance on the multiple-choice tests and the elaboration question on the relationship between theory and practice. Abstract conceptualization was also associated with medium-high performance in all assessment methods and this variable predicted consistent high performance, independent of the assessment method. This study highlights the importance of promoting abstract conceptualization. Recommendations for enhancing this learning dimension are presented.

This essay introduces and examines aspects of the theological aesthetics of contemporary Canadian artist, Michael D. O’Brien (1948–). It also considers how his philosophy of the arts informs understandings of the Catholic imagination. In so doing, it focuses on his view that prayer is the primary source of imaginative expression, allowing the artist to operate from a position of humble receptivity to the transcendent. O’Brien studies is a nascent field, owing much of its development in recent years to the pioneering work of Clemens Cavallin. Apart from Cavallin, few scholars have focused on O’Brien’s extensive collection of paintings (principally because the first catalogue of his art was only published in 2019). Instead, they have worked on his prodigious output of novels and essays. In prioritising O’Brien’s paintings, this study will assess the relationship between his theological reflections on the Catholic imagination and art practice. By focusing on the interface between theory and practice in O’Brien’s art, this article shows that conversations about the philosophy of the Catholic imagination benefit from attending to the inner standing points of contemporary artists who see in the arts a place where faith and praxis meet. In certain instances, I will include images of O’Brien’s devotional art to further illustrate his contemplative, Christ-centred approach to aesthetics. Overall, this study offers new directions in O’Brien studies and scholarship on the philosophy of the Catholic imagination.
