The Role of Scholarship in University Teaching
Authors: Taylor K. Lynn
Published: April 2021

The primary resource in university teaching is the scholarship of faculty. This discussion paper explores the potential role of scholarship as a teaching resource and the value of a scholarship perspective in instructional development. It is argued that the content, structure and process knowledge inherent in scholarship have the potential to contribute to effective teaching and learning, but only when all three forms of expert knowledge are explicitly taught. This teaching task does not flow naturally from scholarship, but requires reflection and careful structuring on the part of the scholar-teacher. It is also argued that a scholarship perspective constitutes an effective context from which to engage a broader spectrum of faculty in communicating about teaching and learning. The purpose of this paper is to stimulate discussion on how a scholarship-based instructional development context might achieve learning outcomes that more closely approximate the ideal of apprenticeship in a discipline.
Academic Labour Markets: Perspectives from Ontario
Authors: Rosenblum Gerald , Rosenblum Barbara Rubin
Published: April 2021

Segmented labour market thinking is utilized, as are working definitions of internal and external labour markets relative to the university as employing organization, in a study of the deployment of instructional staff at one mid-sized Ontario university. Specific categories of students are found to be dispropor- tionately served by members of one or another of these market segments. Pronounced differences are discerned with respect to age and gender relative to labour market location. Statistics Canada data are utilized to demonstrate wide variations in the use of external labour market instructors over time within and between universities. Implications are discussed.
First Year Science in a Commuter University: Where to Intervene
Authors: Grayson J. Paul
Published: April 2021

A study of first year science students in a large Canadian commuter university shows that integration/involvement variables are important in explaining a number of desired outcomes. Most evident is the fact that students who were satisfied with the quality of instruction, and students who felt that topics covered in classes were important to future career success, were more likely than others to score high on a number of desired outcomes. By way of comparison, variables falling in the social integration/involvement category, by and large, were not important in explaining desired outcomes. For example, in contrast to previous findings on factors affecting student development, the number of out- of-class contacts with faculty had no impact on any of the outcomes under consideration Overall, the findings, and possible avenues of improvement that they suggest, reflect the fact that in a large commuter university classroom contact represents the main link between the institution and the individual. As a result, it is likely that improvements in curriculum and teaching would have large payoffs for both students and the institution. The university under study is a commuter university in a large city with large first year science classes. Where similar conditions can be found in other Canadian universities, it is likely that various outcomes can be explained by reference to similar factors. By extension, it is equally probable that changes likely to enhance outcomes would also lead to improvements elsewhere.

Supervision of Graduate Students
Authors: Holdaway Edward , Deblois Claude , Winchester Ian
Published: April 2021

Graduate education is an essential component of universities; it also contributes substantially to national economies. However, problems in graduate education, especially with respect to completion and quality, have emerged in many countries, including Canada. To address these problems and related issues and practices, a comprehensive three-year research project has been conducted involving questionnaires and interviews in Canada, Australia, Great Britain, and other countries. This paper presents information from questionnaires completed in 1993 by 736 supervisors of graduate students in 37 universities across Canada. Many substantial differences were obtained between the means for items when respondents were classified into eight discipline areas. The responses related to master's and doctoral programs were generally similar.
Conceptualizing Academic Library Use: Results of a Survey of Continuing Education Students in a Small Canadian Undergraduate University
Authors: Williams A. Paul
Published: April 2021

This paper analyzes data from a survey of 4,084 continuing education students in a small Canadian undergraduate university to document and conceptualize patterns of library services use and factors influencing use. Factor analysis, multiple regression and analysis of variance are employed to examine the impact of three sets of explanatory variables on academic library use: student characteristics (e.g., age, sex and previous education); perceptions of problems limiting library use; (e.g., the adequacy of the collection, hours, and access to materials); and characteristics of the student's program of study (e.g., field of study, type of program, number of library-related assignments). The findings show that the most frequently used university library services, accounting for almost half of all use, were the study areas and the photocopy machines. The characteristics of the student's program of study including the extent to which library use was integrated into assignments and classroom discussion was found to be a strong predictor of use. The paper concludes that when conceptualizing and planning library services greater attention must be given to the broader learning environment of which the library is part and to the characteristics and needs of increasingly diverse student populations.

Patterns of Education Financing and Debt: A Comparison of Two Cohorts of Canadian Post-Secondary Graduates
Authors: Hiscott Robert D.
Published: April 2021

Using data from 1988 and 1992 National Graduates Surveys (conducted by Statistics Canada), this paper explores educational financing and debt patterns for recent graduates of Canadian community college and university programs. A majority of recent post-secondary graduates borrowed to finance their education at some point during their educational programs through the Canada Student Loans Program and/or other sources. The more recent cohort of post-secondary graduates (1990 graduates interviewed in 1992) reported markedly higher debt loads and significantly greater amounts owing two years after graduation, relative to the earlier cohort (of 1986 graduates surveyed in 1988). Multiple regression models are developed and tested to predict the amount of debt (in dollars) owed by graduates approximately two years after completion of their programs. Key explanatory variables of (1) total amount borrowed, (2) university or community college program graduate, (3) number of months not employed between graduation and time of interview, (4) current job temporary or not, and (5) current employment income were all found to be highly significant for the most recent cohort of post-secondary graduates. However, there are important differences in multiple regression results between the two cohorts which are discussed in detail in the paper.
Power: An Example of Its Changing Nature
Authors: Rees Ruth
Published: April 2021

The purpose of the paper is to describe some experiences of a female Associate Dean in a university faculty in terms of the Marshall (1984) typology of power to reveal its changing nature — evolving from a traditional perspective of having power over others towards one of a "web of relations" (Burbules, 1986). The typology, broadened through the literature review, contains five components of power: power over others, a traditional perspective; structural factors; power through others or facilitative power; power with others or empowerment; and personal power. The experiences of the author reveal that she sees herself as having little power over others and having many aspects of personal power. This finding is similar to two previous studies with women as managers (Adler, Laney, & Packer, 1993; Millers & Cummins, 1992). However, the author self-reflects that most of her power is facilitative power, although she believes that the ideal form we should strive for in the university would be empowerment, where the leader is the web builder so that others can be creating and generating power.
Using Surveys to Measure 'Value Added' in Skills in Four Faculties
Authors: Grayson J. Paul
Published: April 2021

Some universities in Canada and other countries are interested in knowing the value-added to skills — e.g., critical and communication skills — by the university experience. The best way of obtaining information on this matter is through longitudinal analyses with appropriate control groups that utilize both subjective and objective measures of skills; unfortunately, such designs are costly and studies based on them take a long time to complete. In this article an alternate strategy that involved comparing the skills of entering and graduating students at York University is described. It is argued that information collected in this fashion can be of assistance in assessing the value added to specific skills and can be used in a diagnostic fashion by faculties concerned with skills development.

Family Income and Postsecondary Education In Canada
Authors: Christofides Louis N. , Bell Canada Jim Cirello , Hoy Michael
Published: April 2021

We use data from the Surveys of Consumer Finance (1975-1993) to examine how postsecondary education participation rates have evolved over time and how certain variables may affect them. A number of socio- economic influences are shown to affect participation rates. Beyond these, particularly pronounced trend increases in postsecondary education attendance for children from low-income households have led to a convergence in the participation rates of children from different income groups and a consequent reduction in the regressivity associated with subsidies for postsecondary education. We consider possible reasons for this convergence. Conditioning on a number of other variables, we are particularly interested in the possibility that increases in family real income may have affected the demand for postsecondary education by children from low-income families more than the demand by children from high-income households. We find that, although income does have a statistically significant non-linear influence which can explain much of the cross-sectional difference in attendance at postsecondary institutions, its quantitative effects are not sufficiently strong to account for the convergence over time in participation by children from different family income groups.
Rurality and Capital: Educational Expectations and Attainments of Rural, Urban/Rural and Metropolitan youth
Authors: Andres Lesley , Looker E. Dianne
Published: April 2021

This paper uses data from two longitudinal surveys of Canadian youth to examine the effects of rural versus urban/rural and metropolitan residence on young people's educational expectations and attainments. The surveys are based in British Columbia (B.C.) and Nova Scotia (N.S.), two provinces that have very different systems of postsecondary education. B.C. has an articulated system with formal structures which allow students to take the first two years of university study at a community college before transferring to a university. N.S. has no such formal transfer system. Its community college system is not well developed but it has a large number of universities, some of which are in rural areas. The findings show that, in both provinces, students in rural areas have lower expectations and attainments compared to other students, even when parental background, gender and academic stream are controlled. A comparison across provinces shows that rural youth in B.C. are more likely than their N.S. counterparts to pursue postsecondary education, but rural N.S. youth are more likely to have successfully completed a degree program four to five years after high school. Implications of these findings for future research as well as for policy changes in the two provinces are discussed.
A Model of Approaches to Learning and Academic Achievement of Students from an Inquiry Based Bachelor of Health Sciences Program
Authors: Donnon Tyrone , Hecker Kent
Published: April 2021

The Biggs’ Study Process Questionnaire (SPQ) was used to test competing models of students’ approaches to learning in a sample of undergraduate students (n = 125) from an inquiry based Bachelor of Health Sciences program. In addition to an internal consistency and test-retest reliability analysis of the SPQ, confirmatory factor analysis was used to evaluate the goodness-of-fit of two competing models of approaches to learning with students’ GPA. The results provided support for a three-factor model of approaches to learning (CFI = 1.00, SRMR = .052, RMSEA = .000) and the connection between GPA and an achieving approach to learning (path coefficient = .99). A three-factor model of the SPQ that recognizes the strong relationship between students’ GPA, achieving motives and strategies for learning warrants further investigation. Other factors such as faculty expectations, heavy workloads and time commitments may influence the adoption of less desirable approaches to learning.
Toward a Model of Academic Integrity Institutionalization: Informing Practice in Postsecondary Education
Authors: Gallant Tricia Bertram , Drinan Patrick
Published: April 2021

The strategic choices facing higher education in confronting problems of academic misconduct need to be rethought. Using institutional theory, a model of academic integrity institutionalization is proposed that delineates four stages and a pendulum metaphor. A case study is provided to illustrate how the model can be used by postsecondary institutions as a stimulus for specifying points of change resistance and developing a common understanding of institutionalization challenges. This article bridges theory and practice in the academic integrity movement, questions assumptions about leadership of the process, and anticipates fresher approaches to examining the relationship between the teaching and research missions.
Differentiation by Degrees: System Design and the Changing Undergraduate Environment in Canada
Authors: Marshall Dave
Published: April 2021

There has been a significant growth in the number and types of degrees offered by a wider variety of Canadian post-secondary institutions. This expansion of degree access is the legitimate response to various forces, both social and post secondary. However, as a result, there has been some confusion regarding the meaning and value of the new degrees offered by the increasing variety of institutions. Several provinces are now recognizing this confusion through initiatives to “redesign” their provincial post-secondary systems and this may ultimately reduce the diversity and the confusion. However, this paper examines the forces that have led to this proliferation of degrees and institutions and discusses the problems and controversies that are brewing regarding the recognition of these new degrees for further study and the proposals for system redesign. In particular, it is proposed that an examination of both the substance of various degrees and the nature of the institution offering the credential can provide a context for understanding the meaning of various degrees. Recommendations to help resolve the growing concerns in this area are provided for non-university degree-granting institutions, Canadian universities, and for provincial governments developing degree granting policies as part of system redesign initiatives.
Writing Tutors in the Economics Classroom: A Case Study
Authors: Marr Bill , Misser Emmy
Published: April 2021

This paper reports on a pilot study that involved introducing writing tutors or writing fellows into a compulsory, third-year economics course with the intent of incorporating both writing across the curriculum and writing intensive elements. The connections and inter-relationships between writing and writing intensive courses are set out briefly first of all; the connections among writing, critical thinking, and knowledge acquisition are emphasised. The course and the writing tutor system are both described, along with their connection to the Writing Centre at the university, and then comments from the tutors and the students in the course are presented. The study appears to be successful and some thoughts to consider when introducing this system elsewhere are given.
Miss Congeniality Meets the New Managerialism: Feminism, Contingent Labour, and the New University
Authors: Webber Michelle
Published: April 2021

In Canada, non-permanent faculty are no longer simply a reserve, flexible labour pool available for administrators to draw on when needed (e.g. during times of fl uctuating enrollments); rather, they represent a strategy utilized by universities to reduce overall labour costs. In this article I bring together Women’s Studies, feminism, contingent academics, and new managerialism. I explore how Women’s Studies, as a site for thwarting ruling relations and offering the promise of alternative pedagogies, is being undercut by its forced reliance on contingent labour. Second, I argue that the new managerialist culture undermines the role of feminism in the contemporary academy such that faculty members’ feminism complicates their tenuous positions as non-permanent faculty members.
Le stress, les stratégies d’adaptation, le locus de contrôle et l’épuisement professionnel chez les professeurs universitaires francophones
Authors: Montgomery Cameron , Morin Yvan , Demers Serge
Published: April 2021

A French-language questionnaire on stress (“Teacher Stress Inventory,” Fimian, 1984), coping strategies (“Brief Cope,” Carver, 1997), locus of control (“Work Locus of Control Scale,” Spector, 1988), and burnout (“Maslach Burnout Inventory,” Maslach, Jackson, & Leiter, 1996) was given to a sample of francophone university professors. The differential functioning of each of the four scales was done with structural equation models. Stress and burnout, as well as sources of stress and main coping strategies, by age and sex were determined. Two conclusions were reached: there is a direct link between stress and emotions; and francophone university professors are no more stressed or burnt out than other professionals.
International Mobility of Canadian Social Sciences and Humanities Doctoral Students
Authors: Knight Jane , Madden Meggan
Published: April 2021

International academic mobility is an aspect of internationalization that is changing rapidly in terms of volume, scope, and impact. Although much of the attention and research on mobility has focused on undergraduate students participating in short-term study abroad, internships, and exchange experiences, the new push to develop international research partnerships and networks has led to the recognition of the importance and benefi ts of doctoral student mobility. The purpose of this article is to provide a current picture of the international mobility — both full-degree and short-term research and academic work abroad — of Canadian students in social sciences and humanities (SSH). The analysis focuses on the profi le of internationally active SSH doctoral students, and the rationales that drive academic mobility, the factors that help or hinder it, and the types of scholarships available to support it.
Easing the Transfer of Students from College to University Programs: How Can Learning Outcomes Help?
Authors: Carter Irene , Coyle James P. , Leslie Donald R.
Published: April 2021

Increasingly, students are seeking transfer from college to university educational programs. This challenges universities to assess the effectiveness of transfer policies and also challenges colleges to prepare students for continued education. This paper reviews the various transfer procedures used by Canadian universities, barriers experienced by students seeking transfer, and strategies for improving the transfer process. The authors propose the use of learning outcomes, which identify student knowledge and skills following an educational experience, to develop block transfer strategies that ease student transfer between educational programs.
Professional Development Needs of Administrators in Higher Education
Authors: Konrad A. G. , Long J. C. , Small J. M.
Published: April 2021

The professional development needs of middle-level administrators in western Canadian two-year postsecondary institutions were investigated. The needs identified reflect a broad range of knowledge and skill areas. Those regarded as most important included such needs as program and staff evaluation. Among those needs considered least important were those related to fund raising and the completion of a degree. Central to the study is an effort to design a research-based approach to professional development programs. From a practical point of view, the study offers a methodology for beginning with "target" group needs in the development of in-service programs. Some of the most important implications of the findings are explored with those for workshop planners receiving special attention.
Jaspers' Concept of the University
Authors: Burch Robert
Published: April 2021

The paper has a threefold purpose. The first is simply expository: it outlines and explicates the general character of Jaspers' notion of the idea of the university, and seeks to do so in such a way as to make this notion more readily intelligible to readers unfamiliar with Jaspers' philosophy as a whole. To this end, it elucidates the essential content of the notion, clarifies what is meant here by the term "idea", illumines the essential philosophic foundations up-on which Jaspers' discussion is based and traces out the systematic structure of his position. Secondly, the paper states a number of basic objections to Jaspers' view, and in most cases, through the extrapolation of his explicit remarks, is able to suggest how Jaspers himself might have responded to these objections. The purpose of this discussion, however, is not principally to resolve the issues raised, but simply to open the way for genuine debate. Thirdly, throughout the paper the attempt is made, both explicitly and implicitly, to establish the relevance of Jaspers' work to current university problems. This is accomplished on two levels: the first emphasises the importance per se of continued reflection on the idea of the university as the means of gaining needed clarity regarding both the true nature and mission of the university and the ultimate significance of our commitment to this in- stitution; and the second indicates how Jaspers' particular judgements concerning this first matter bear directly upon more specific issues, e.g. the relation of teaching and research, academic standards, university autonomy, the essential responsibilities of professors and students, etc. Implicit to this threefold intention is the conviction that philosophic reflection on the idea of the university is vital to the institution's authentic existence, and that Jaspers' own work in this area is at present unrivalled in its breadth of vision and profundity. It is thus hoped that the paper will lead its readers to a more serious consideration of Jaspers' work, and from there, once they perceive what is really at stake, to a reflection on the issue itself - the idea of the university.
Le financement de la formation post-secondaire

Published: April 2021

Ce travail pre´sente certaines notions sur la formation post-secondaire et son financement. Les propositions portent sur les cou^ts mone´taires, les cou^ts directs et indirects (le manque a` gagner inclus) et sur l'aide financie`re aux e´tudiants. L'article passe en revue les be´ne´fi- ciaires de la formation post-secondaire et leur contribution au financement de cette for- mation. Il est e´vident que la socie´te´ de´fraie en grande partie les cou^ts directs par l'inter- me´diaire des gouvernements, et les e´tudiants les cou^ts indirects. L'intervention de l'Etat est surtout lie´e a` l'investissement en e´ducation, a` la cre´ation des biens culturels et a` l'aide financie`re aux e´tudiants pour supple´er les imperfections du marche´ du capital. D'ailleurs, les programmes de bourses devraient orienter les e´tudiants vers les domaines d'e´tudes prioritaires du point de vue social et e´conomique. Tenant compte du manque a` gagner, l'apport des e´tudiants au financement de leur formation est tre`s important. Cependant, e´tant les principaux be´ne´ficiaires de cette formation (la rentabilite´ prive´e de la formation post-secondaire demeure en ge´ne´ral e´vidente), il est raisonnable d'admettre que ceux qui be´ne´ficient de cette formation sous forme de revenus e´leve´s, devraient supporter un pourcentage plus e´leve´ des cou^ts institutionnels. Un moyen de le faire serait un re´gime de pre^ts plus e´leve´s et remboursables sur une pe´riode prolonge´e.
Toward a Sociological Theory of Labour Relations
Authors: Garry Carl
Published: April 2021

During the 1970's unionization among professional employees in Canada has increased and this trend has been evident among university faculty members. The case study of unionization of faculty at "Eastview University" shows that the literature of voluntary associations and consideration of the historical, political and economic environment of unionization is relevant to the study of unionization in Canada. The literature of labour relations has emphasized economic considerations and been dominated by practitioners. The case study shows that the university's faculty association was an expressive type of voluntary association. Changes in the university's environment led to increased pressures on faculty members and they experienced a sense of powerlessness. The faculty association became a faculty union, an instrumental association. Both faculty association and faculty union performed functions common to voluntary associations, conferring status and integrating the group. Economic factors were not the major factors for unionization at Eastview and the socio-psychological factors of insecurity and lack of full status as professionals were more influential. Further consideration of socio-psychological factors, following the model given in the article, will lead to fuller understanding of unionization and the role of professionals in bureaucracies.
Evaluation: Purposes and Levels
Authors: Geis George L.
Published: April 2021

Although they work in different worlds, both marriage counsellors and statistical consultants are likely to complain to their clients, "Why didn't you come to me earlier?" Consultants in educational evaluation share the problem: the client typically comes for advice and assistance long after an evaluation plan has been developed and implemented. It is as if the client arrived with a shopping bag of macaroni, turnips, cornflakes, and a soup chicken and demanded that the magical recipes of the evaluation expert produce a gourmet meal.With the rapidly increasing popularity of the evaluation of courses, programs, and teachers, evaluators are under increasing pressure to communicate to the users a clearer picture of how evaluations ought to be planned and carried out. This paper deals with two concepts of educational evaluation and indicates how they illustrate the need for early planning.
Le rôle d'un service de pedagogie Universitaire dans l'évaluation de cours
Authors: Parent Jacques
Published: April 2021

Il existe dans la plupart des universités et collèges canadiens un service d'assistance ou de recherche sur l'enseignement. Au Québec, on a vu naître il y a près de cinq ans les services de pédagogie universitaire (S.P.U.) dont le mandat est l'amélioration de l'enseignement supérieur. Par la force des choses, ces services, tout comme le Center For Learning and Development de l'Université McGill, se sont impliqués dans l'évaluation des cours. Doiton leur faire confiance? Quelles précautions les utilisateurs de ces services doivent-ils prendre afin de préserver la confidentialité des renseignements recueillis par leur intermédiaire. Une fois les lacunes d'un cours identifiées, un service de pédagogie universitaire a-t-il des ressources nécessaires pour les combler? Voilà quelques questions parmi bien d'autres que se posent les professeurs qui font affaire avec les S.P.U. On craint les agents externes au département où à la faculté, lesquels viennent "mettre leur nez" dans les cours. Quoi qu'il en soit ce sont de tels organismes qui bien souvent mettent sur pied des stratégies systématiques d'évaluation des cours et ce sont eux qui coordonnent les ressources que l'université consacre à l'amélioration de l'enseignement.Le texte qui suit tente de répondre aux préoccupations les plus souvent énoncées de la part des professeurs en regard de la participation d'un S.P.U. à l'évaluation des cours. Il est présenté sour forme de questions et réponses afin de mieux régrouper les préoccupations qui y sont traitées.
The Ontario University System as Wealth-Creator: Who Benefits? Who Pays?
Authors: Mehmet Ozay
Published: April 2021

This study is based on the assumption that university, inter alia, functions as a wealth- creator; as a result, it can effectively influence the distribution of income among groups and individuals. Since the Ontario university system is heavily financed out of general tax revenues, and supplied as a leading form of "public good," considerations of equity require that the system should serve both the principle of equality of opportunity as well as that of equality of results for all groups. An empirical evaluation of the system, based on the class of 1974 full-time male undergraduates, found that the present university education in the province is significantly regressive, tending to create wealth for, and shift income distribution in favour of, the higher income groups.
Procalcitonin and White Blood Cells as an Infection Marker in Children with Diabetic Ketoacidosis
Authors: Rochmah Nur , Faizi Muhammad , Kurniawan Yudhi , Choirunisa Latifatu , Endaryanto Anang , Soetjipto
Published: April 2021

Introduction: Diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA), an acute complication of type 1 (insulin dependent) diabetes mellitus (T1DM), can be precipitated by infection. Procalcitonin (PCT) is an accurate marker of bacteremia, sepsis, and inflammation, however white blood cells (WBC) are still often used by clinicians. We aimed to analyze PCT levels and WBC counts in children with DKA.Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted in Dr. Soetomo General Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia, between 2015 and 2019. T1DM and DKA diagnosis was based on the International Society for Pediatric and Adolescent Diabetes. PCT levels and WBC counts were measured in samples from patients with and without DKA, and were compared using the Mann-Whitney test.Results: A total of 41 samples were included, with 15 samples (36.6%) from children with DKA, and 26 (63.4%) from children without DKA. PCT levels and WBC counts were significantly higher in those with DKA (p<0.001). The receiver operating characteristic curve analysis of WBC was lower than PCT (0.849 vs. 0.982). PCT had a higher sensitivity and spesificity as an infection marker than WBC (93.3 vs. 86.7; 92.3 vs. 88.5, respectively).Conclusion: PCT is a better infection marker in children with DKA than WBC

Myringoplasty and the factors that affect its success- a case based review
Authors: Kyrtata Natalia , Ahmed Shadaba
Published: April 2021

Myringoplasty is the surgical treatment for the repair of tympanic membrane (TM) perforations. It is indicated for treatment of recurrent ear discharge, improving conductive hearing loss, and preventing future infections, especially in high risk groups. In this case-based review, the normal anatomy and physiology of the ear is described, followed by the way conductive and sensorineural hearing loss are differentiated through a detailed history, examination and investigations, including audiometry and tympanometry. The anatomy of the TM is explored and the causes, presentation and diagnosis of TM perforations, which are a cause of conductive hearing loss, are described

This review focuses on how myringoplasty is used to repair TM perforations, and what factors affect its success, relating the findings to four patients who have undergone myringoplasty. The underlay technique is used more frequently, yielding better results with fewer side-effects, especially for posterior perforations, whereas overlay is shown to be better for anterior perforations due to a better view of the TM, but has higher risks for graft lateralisation and blunting. Over-underlay is similar to underlay in success, but can only be applied where the handle of malleus is intact.

TM repair was shown to be independent of age, sex and timing of antibiotic administration, although chronic perforations take longer to heal. The effect of size on the surgical outcome is debatable, with different studies showing opposite results. Side-effects, alternative treatment options and potential biases in the studies are discussed, as well as the limitations of the information obtained from the cases.

The conclusion is that there is no “one-fits-all” procedure or graft that is suitable for the repair of all TM perforations, and each patient should be assessed on an individual basis, taking into consideration their own needs and wishes.

As pesquisas em ensino de ciências têm apontado a necessidade de incorporar, na formação dos alunos da educação básica, experiências educacionais que ultrapassem atividades formais, destinadas aos contextos das salas de aula. Partindo desse pressuposto, neste artigo, discutimos desafios e potencialidades associados às visitas aos laboratórios de pesquisa. Em especial, investigamos como atividades propostas por docentes da escola básica e ações de divulgar de cientistas, quando complementares, podem promover reflexões sobre o saber e o fazer científico. Para tanto, são trabalhados aspectos quantitativos e qualitativos associados às respostas e produções de alunos participantes de atividades de divulgação científica realizadas em um laboratório de nanotecnologia, articuladas a ações que ocorreram no contexto formal de educação. Dentre os resultados, destacamos desafios associados à superação da suposta neutralidade da ciência por parte dos alunos, em especial, da visão salvacionista enfatizada neste artigo. Defendemos que é preciso aumentar a frequência de atividades que promovam discussões sobre a produção e apropriação do conhecimento científico e tecnológico, sempre na perspectiva de articular escola básica e universidade, reconhecendo que ambas são responsáveis pela formação de cidadãos.
Articulações entre Teoria da Flexibilidade Cognitiva e os Três Momentos Pedagógicos: confecção e análise de um material didático na estrutura fractal

A Teoria da Flexibilidade Cognitiva estabelece que o conhecimento é construído mediante o enfretamento de situações reais, pertinentes a domínios de conhecimento complexos e pouco estruturados. Articulações entre essa teoria e os Três Momentos Pedagógicos, em especial a Aplicação do Conhecimento, podem favorecer o processo “codificação-problematização-descodificação” e o modelo fractal da estruturação didática desses momentos. Este artigo tem por objetivo desenvolver essas articulações e exercitá-las na análise de um material didático referente ao tema Produção, Transmissão e Consumo da Energia Elétrica, produzido no contexto do ensino de Física da Educação de Jovens e Adultos. Verificamos que os pressupostos da Teoria da Flexibilidade Cognitiva contribuem para o desenvolvimento da Aplicação do Conhecimento e do modelo fractal por meio de estruturas de conhecimento em rede e flexíveis, construídas ao longo do cruzamento de paisagens ou temas altamente inter-relacionados, utilizadas no enfrentamento do cotidiano científico-tecnológico e na resolução de problemas. Nas considerações finais, tecemos comentários acerca da potencialidade do material didático e das articulações desenvolvidas para outras abordagens didáticas e modalidades de ensino.
Estado da questão sobre a formação inicial de professores para o ensino de Física Moderna e Contemporânea

Published: April 2021

O presente trabalho apresenta o estado da questão sobre a formação inicial de professores para introdução de Física Moderna e Contemporânea no Ensino Médio. A investigação ocorreu na emergência de 14 artigos advindos da seleção em periódicos classificados como A1 e A2 pelo Qualis CAPES na área do Ensino, do Simpósio Nacional em Ensino de Física e do Encontro de Pesquisa em Ensino de Física, dos últimos 10 anos. Com a análise realizada encontramos duas categorias emergentes: “Racionalidade técnica como prática do professor formador: consequências para a introdução de Física Moderna e Contemporânea no Ensino Médio” e “Formação inicial de professores para a introdução de Física Moderna e Contemporânea no Ensino Médio: A interação, o diálogo e a pesquisa como pilares da prática do professor formador”. Diante das discussões realizadas argumentamos que a interação, o diálogo e a investigação como princípios de ensino do professor formador, possibilitam a inserção da Física Moderna e Contemporânea no Ensino Médio.
As teorias e experimentos em ensaio sobre o fogo
Authors: Correia Leonardo Olivel , Baldinato José Otavio
Published: April 2021

O estudo de fenômenos naturais de interesse social representa um dos objetivos da aprendizagem de ciências na Escola Básica. É de se estranhar, portanto, que o fogo, uma das mais úteis e fascinantes manifestações da Natureza, receba pouca atenção na ciência e quase nenhuma no ensino, como se percebe pela ausência de estudos aprofundados sobre este fenômeno nas coleções didáticas de química aprovadas pelo Programa Nacional do Livro Didático (PNLD 2015). O fogo, no entanto, já foi objeto de estudos da filosofia química no passado. Com o objetivo de resgatar a história do fogo enquanto objeto de estudo da química, neste trabalho propomos uma análise da obra An essay on fire, publicada em 1790 pelo celebrado filósofo de Genebra, Marc-Auguste Pictet. À luz da contemporânea historiografia da ciência, buscamos analisar de que forma as teorias do final do século XVIII explicavam tal fenômeno. Os resultados desta análise revelam aspectos de interesse sobre os modos de pensar dos químicos no contexto estudado. O texto de Pictet deixa claro, por exemplo, que a palavra fogo era empregada para designar não apenas a chama, mas um agente que seria responsável por diversos efeitos na estrutura dos corpos naturais, incluindo as dilatações, mudanças de estado e a própria decomposição química. Descrevendo séries de experimentos, o filósofo analisa o fogo sob quatro pontos de vista: Fogo liberado, calor específico, calor latente e fogo combinado. Todos os experimentos realizados pelo autor são precedidos por considerações teóricas e os resultados experimentais são usados como forma de aceitar ou recusar essas teorias que, muitas vezes, contrapõem concepções corpusculares e vibracionais na interpretação do fogo como o agente causal da sensação denominada calor. Concluímos que o estudo da obra de Pictet nos permite entender algumas características de como a ciência se desenvolve, destacando a importância da comunicação entre pesquisadores, a interdependência entre experimentos e teorias e o convívio com diferentes modelos para representar um fenômeno em estudo.

O estudo parte do entendimento da importância em abordar conteúdos de Física Nuclear, assim como os de Astronomia, no ensino médio, por meio da preparação dos professores em seus cursos de formação inicial. Nessa direção, o presente estudo buscou responder à seguinte pergunta: qual a viabilidade de uma proposta didática que toma o Calendário Cósmico como suporte de contextualização dos conteúdos de Física Nuclear presente no ensino médio? Dessa forma, o objetivo geral do trabalho situa-se na perspectiva de analisar como licenciandos de Física acolhem a associação da Física Nuclear com eventos astronômicos enquanto proposta de ensino voltada a melhorar a sua compreensão conceitual, bem como possibilidade didática para seu exercício profissional futuro.  Para tanto, o estudo elegeu como sujeitos de investigação um curso de formação inicial de professores de Física para discutir tal possibilidade. A proposta didática, operacionalizada na forma de um curso de extensão, teve como instrumentos de avaliação junto ao público investigado o uso de dois questionários, um aplicado no início das atividades e outro ao final. De forma geral, os resultados apontaram que os acadêmicos se envolveram com as atividades desenvolvidas, manifestando ampliação de seus conhecimentos no campo da Física Nuclear constatada por meio das respostas analisadas nos dois questionários aplicados.
