El acoso escolar es un fenómeno que tiene lugar en todo el mundo y constituye una gran preocupación para los sistemas educativos de los países desarrollados y en vías de desarrollo. El presente estudio analiza: a) las diferencias en el perfil de agresión del alumnado de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria en base a variables personales, académicas y familiares; y b) las diferencias en la valoración de la gravedad de conductas agresivas según el perfil de agresión del alumnado. En la investigación participaron 215 alumnos/as de Educación Secundaria Obligatoria de dos centros educativos de Tenerife. Para la recogida de datos se diseñó un cuestionario en el que se abordaron: 1) los niveles de agresión del alumnado; 2) la calidad de las relaciones del alumnado con sus padres y madres; y 3) la gravedad atribuida por el alumnado a situaciones de agresión. Los resultados reflejaron que los estudiantes con mayores puntuaciones en agresión son: a) varones; b) repetidores/as; c) aquellos/as cuyos padres poseen un menor nivel educativo; d) aquellos/as que tienen mayor nivel de alienación con padres y madres; y e) aquellos/as que tienen menor nivel de confianza con su padre. Los estudiantes que muestran mayor nivel de agresión tienden a valorar las conductas agresivas como menos graves que quienes muestran menor nivel de agresión. Se concluye que determinadas características socio-familiares en los jóvenes, como la confianza con los padres y el sentimiento de integración con ambos progenitores, actúan como factores protectores ante el acoso escolar. Bullying is a phenomenon that happens worldwide and a major concern for the educational systems of developed and developing countries. The present study analyzes: a) the differences in the aggression profile of Compulsory Secondary Education students based on personal, academic and family variables; and b) the differences in the assessment of the aggressive behaviours severity according to the student's aggression profile. The research involved 215 students of Compulsory Secondary Education from two schools in Tenerife. For the collection of data, a questionnaire was designed that addressed: 1) student aggression levels; 2) the quality of student relationships with their parents; and 3) the severity attributed by students to aggression situations. The results showed that the students with the highest aggression scores were: a) males; b) repeaters; c) those whose parents have a lower educational level; d) those who have the highest level of alienation with fathers and mothers; and e) those who have a lower level of trust with their father. Students who have a higher level of aggression tend to value aggressive behaviors as less serious than those who have a lower level of aggression. It is concluded that certain socio-family characteristics in young people, such as trust with parents and the feeling of integration with both parents, act as protective factors against bullying.

Education Model

Innovation in Physical Education (PE) implies to search different ways to improve the quality of the educational process. The Sport Education Model (SEM) is a pedagogical approach that allows students to get involve in sport learnings at the same time that they participate autonomously in cooperative teams. Despite of the multiple contents that have been taught in PE through the characteristics of the SEM, to date there is no experiences that have applied this model in the teaching and the assessment of physical fitness. Therefore, this work presents an action research experience that involved 67 students from first grade of Secondary Education (36 males and 31 females) with a mean age of 12.46 years old (SD = 0.66) concerning the adaptation and implementation of the MED in the teaching of test to assess physical fitness in Secondary Education Students (11-16 years). In order to evaluate its application, a qualitative design was used. Interviews, a field diary and students’ perceptions were analyzed. It was observed that students were physically active most of the time, they performed all the test and assessed positively their involvement in the cooperative teams. Therefore, it is suggested that some features of the SEM (e.g., cooperative teams, duty roles, organization in phases, data collection) can be an adequate to teach this content and that it could contribute to develop some key competences.

The research aims to reflect on the Modular Teaching Organization System (SOME) based on a case study at Escola Rui Barbosa, Medicilândia, Pará. Focusing on supply and operation, in addition to understanding the process of acceptance of the Interactive Educational System (SEI) by the community. The approach was quali-quantitative, with interviews, collection and processing of secondary data and documentary research. Secondary education in this community is the result of collective social struggle, with an increase in the number of enrollments from 2003 to 2019, as well as a decrease in the number of dropouts. Despite the challenges of ensuring the supply of subjects, teachers and infrastructure, SOME was defended by the school community for guaranteeing access to secondary education in the countryside. The local community does not support replacement by the SEI presented by the state government as a pilot proposal, considering that there will be a loss in the quality of education and a devaluation of teachers. Popular participation in the definition of public educational policies is not a priority for public agents, who continue to define them without discussion with society.

This paper shows that when student heterogeneity is introduced in the analysis, differences in the quality of education and in the probability of repetition, typical in developing countries, mark the contrast between an attractive and an inconvenient investment in education. The methodology associates educational quality and repetition rates with educational returns. In particular, it makes apparent that lower secondary education, in the case of Uruguay, is an inconvenient investment for disadvantaged students, even disregarding the possibility of such students not being able to afford the opportunity costs, this fact probably also explains the heavy dropout rates of this student type in many developing countries.

The aim of this paper is to explore and measure language learners’ performance in L2 writing production using the complexity, accuracy, and fluency constructs. A total of 123 secondary education students took part in the study. Results are manifold. In the first place, they show that the measures of fluency, accuracy, grammatical and lexical complexity progress in a significant way: fourth grade students outperform first graders in the aforementioned measures. Secondly, fewer correlations between the writing measures used and the general quality of the compositions are found among the older students than among the younger ones, indicating that the correlations change depending on learners’ age. Thirdly, 1st year students exhibit a higher ratio of errors, both in general and also by error category, although only two types decrease significantly in 4th year students: syntactic and spelling errors. Lastly, we find that errors tend to develop in a non-linear way.

Transit stations are generally well known as nodes of spaces where percentage of people walking are relatively high. The issue is do more planning is actually given to create walkability. Creating walking led transit stations involves planning of walking distance, providing facilities like pathways, toilets, seating and lighting. On the other hand, creating walking led transit station for women uncover a new epitome. Walking becomes one of the most important forms of mobility for women in developing countries nowadays. Encouraging women to use public transportation is not just about another effort to promote the use of public transportation but also another great endeavour to reduce numbers of traffic on the road. This also means, creating an effort to control accidents rate, reducing carbon emission, improving health and eventually, developing the quality of life. Hence, in this paper, we sought first to find out the factors that motivate women to walk at transit stations in Malaysia. A questionnaire survey with 562 female user of Light Railway Transit (LRT) was conducted at LRT stations along Kelana Jaya Line. Both built and non-built environment characteristics, particularly distance, safety and facilities were found as factors that are consistently associated with women walkability. With these findings, the paper highlights the criteria  which are needed to create and make betterment of transit stations not just for women but also for walkability in general.

Critical Constraints

The pressure to publish is a fact of life in academia. Academics are expected to demonstrate that they are active researchersand that their work has been vetted by peers and disseminated in reputable scholarly forums. In practice, however, a numberof critical constraints hamper effective publication of scientific research in most developing countries. These include lackof effective mentoring system, poor facilities and inadequate funding for effective research and heavy workload where toomuch time and effort are spent in teaching, grading, meetings and other non-academic activities. In spite of these seeminglyinsurmountable challenges, with proper planning and commitment, one can still conduct research and publish to advanceones career and exchange of knowledge. The paper discusses the critical guiding principles in scientific writing and publishingin an unfriendly research environment as pertains in most universities in the developing world. The overriding principle isto cultivate the discipline of scientific writing consciously and follow it through religiously. This could be achieved if time isallocated for scientific writing in the scheme of weekly schedule of activities and made to be functional through meticulousplanning and commitment. Equally important is to avoid procedural mistakes in scientific writing. While the quality of theresearch is the single most important factor in determining whether an article will be published, a number of proceduralmistakes can help tip the balance against its publication. It should also be noted that when a manuscript is submitted to ascholarly journal, there are two audiences to satisfy: first the editor and external reviewers, and then the journal’s readers.That first group must be satisfied to create the opportunity to appeal to the second. Thus, familiarity with the style and tone ofthe specific journal is crucial.
