Atualmente, verifica-se aumento significativo na prevalência de demência, causada pela doença de Alzheimer (DA) e outros transtornos neurocognitivos, patologias progressivas, irreversíveis e sem tratamentos curativos. Sendo assim, o foco dos estudos recentes está na identificação de pessoas com alto risco para demência, possibilitando diagnóstico e tratamento precoces com propósito de prevenir e/ou retardar a instalação de demência. O programa “Cuide da sua Memória” do CECOM-UNICAMP oferece à população universitária avaliação de queixas de memória ou outros domínios cognitivos, com objetivo de identificar, acompanhar e tratar indivíduos com condições pré-demenciais, prevenindo o avanço da perda cognitiva e a conversão para demência. As ações do programa são: educação da população, consultas multidisciplinares de diagnóstico e acompanhamento, tratamento com estimulação cognitiva multimodal em grupo, treinamento de outros profissionais e produção científica. O programa conta com médicos especialistas, psicólogos e equipe de enfermagem treinados em saúde cognitiva. Após aproximadamente 1 ano de trabalho, foram realizadas palestras unidades do campus de Campinas e de Limeira, cerca de 200 pacientes foram avaliados e a maioria está em seguimento semestral, a cada 10 semanas novos grupos de estimulação cognitiva são abertos, são oferecidos estágios anuais para dois médicos residentes de Psiquiatria Geriátrica e um psicólogo e foi estruturado um grupo de pesquisa sobre condições pré-demenciais com cinco projetos de pós-graduação. Entende-se que esse programa pode servir de modelo para estruturação de outros serviços públicos e privados de atenção à saúde cognitiva com foco na prevenção de demência.
Programa de atenção à dependência química – PADQ
Authors: Ferreira Petra , Bueno Erika Aparecida
Published: July 2017

O Programa de Atenção a Dependência Química foi institucionalizado na UNICAMP desde 2010 e envolve um fluxo de atendimento entre as áreas de Serviço Social/GGBS, CECOM, DSO/DGRH e ASPA/HC. Trata-se de um programa destinado a proporcionar condições de tratamento aos funcionários da Universidade, que apresentam problemas relacionados ao uso de substâncias psicoativas e/ou convive com algum membro da família, também dependente dessas substâncias, visto que a dependência química traz ônus considerável ao usuário e a sua família, levando a perda de emprego, rupturas familiares, instabilidade financeira e consequências físicas e psicológicas. Vale ressaltar que atualmente são vários os fatores que influenciam os funcionários na busca de tratamento para dependência química, dentre eles a implantação do Fluxo de atendimento entre as Unidades parceiras GGBS, CECOM e DGRH onde cada Unidade desempenha suas devidas atribuições. Outro fator que tem influenciado nos atendimentos, é o aumento da procura por internação involuntária que acontece tanto pelos familiares de funcionários dependentes químicos, como por funcionários que possuem familiares também dependentes químicos, que buscam esse tipo de tratamento. Considerando que de janeiro de 2015 até o momento, foram realizadas 15 internações em clínica parceira podemos observar que, o Programa tem sido atuante dentro da Universidade, tendo sempre como meta à possibilidade de ampliar o tratamento de dependência química junto aos funcionários e seus familiares, possibilitando uma melhoria na qualidade de vida e um bom o desempenho nas suas atividades laborais.

Published: July 2017

O acometimento de uma doença crônica como o câncer impacta a vida do sujeito e de seus familiares, em diversas situações em destaque para financeira e profissional, visto que dificulta a capacidade laborativa de todos envolvidos, reconfigurando a autonomia da paciente, de manter seu próprio sustento. O estudo almeja conhecer a situação previdenciária e o município de origem das pacientes atendidas na Enfermaria de Oncologia Clínica do CAISM/UNICAMP. Essa compreensão possui a finalidade de entender a relação entre atenção terciária de um Hospital de Ensino e o processo do cuidado a fim de proporcionar qualidade de vida ao sujeito com câncer. No cotidiano do trabalho do Serviço Social é necessário ter em vista o território de moradia dos seus pacientes, pois é lá que acontecem todas as ações. O território vai além do espaço geográfico, sendo um lugar de identidade, ritmos e marcas de expressão. A pesquisa foi realizada através de fonte secundária, oriundas do instrumental próprio do Serviço Social arquivado no prontuário único, com 56 pacientes que necessitavam da intervenção do Serviço Social para viabilizar o suporte protetivo para o cuidado em saúde. A atuação do assistente social na Enfermaria de Oncologia Clínica do CAISM/UNICAMP fundamenta-se na concepção do acesso, garantias de direitos e de avaliar a rede de suporte do território de moradia do paciente.

Minhas marcas: a arte com bebês
Authors: Parra Cecilia , Baqueiro Maria Lúcia , Coral Anna Karina
Published: July 2017

Apoiadas nas pesquisas mais recentes sobre a Pedagogia da Infância e ressaltando a importância do protagonismo infantil - mesmo quando se trata de bebês, relatamos aqui a experiência vivida no Convivência I do CECI – Centro de Convivência Infantil/ UNICAMP com bebês de 6 meses a 1 ano e 3 meses. Tal vivência aborda a questão da arte como experiência sensória do bebê, possibilidade de contato com novos materiais, realçando a importância do educador não apenas no planejamento e execução, mas como facilitador da relação e contato com o novo que é apresentado. Nesta vivência foi usado o gesso aplicado à tela em pintura coletiva e tintas naturais de cenoura, beterraba, couve, maracujá, colorau e açafrão. Os bebês puderam manusear o gesso, sentir sua textura se modificando sobre a tela e, em outro momento, pintar as marcas deixadas com as tintas naturais em forma de chup-chup, que foram derretendo e sendo saboreadas ao longo do processo. Constatamos ser importante tais experiências sensórias e artísticas com os bebês, já que estes aprendem com o corpo todo, e destacamos que o envolvimento do educador é fundamental para que a relação com o desconhecido ocorra de forma mais intensa, respeitando sempre os tempos de cada um para viver a experiência.
Daya Pragmatik Tuturan Pepindhan dan Sanepa
Authors: Indratmo Aloysius
Published: July 2017

Tuturan tidak hanya memiliki makna saja tetapi juga mengandung daya tertentu yakni daya pragmatik. Daya pragmatik ini dibentuk oleh daya ilokusi bersama dengan daya retorik tuturan. Daya ilokusi disampaikan melalui makna tuturan, sedangkan daya retorik adalah efek tertentu pada pikiran mitra tutur ketika menerima/ mendengar tuturan yang ditujukan kepadanya. Oleh karena tuturan pepindhan dan sanepa termasuk dalam tindak tutur tidak langsung tidak literal maka ilokusinya juga tidak langsung. Sejalan dengan itu maka daya pragmatik tuturan pepindhan dan sanepa disamarkan melalui implikatur. Tuturan pepindhan dan sanepa memiliki daya pragmatik direktif dengan ilokuasi ajaran, nasihat, perintah/ permohonan, dan larangan; serta ekspresif dengan ilokuasi memuji dan mengecam. Selain itu tindak tutur pepindhan dan sanepa juga memiliki fungsi pewujud kesponan dan keindahan.

The current development of the urban space is determined by the interests of capital. The power of corporations has influenced policy makers in designing the development of many cities. This gives rise to a variety of social impact especially spatial problem, that resulting an occupation of space between the community and the investors. Henry Lefebvre provide a very actual criticism in associated with this condition. He introduced the concept of the social space. Written criticism in the mid 70s it find the relevance today. This paper examines Lefebvre's criticism space as an alternative solution to solve the problems of urban space.

CINTA, KOMITMEN, DAN KEHORMATAN DALAM CERPEN BISMA KARYA PUTU WIJAYA
Authors: Wirajaya Asep Yudha
Published: July 2017

Bisma merupakan salah satu cerpen Putu Wijaya yang ingin “menjungkirbalikkan” konsep cinta – komitmen – kehormatan melalui sosok yang selama ini dikenal dalam epos Mahabarata sebagai sosok yang selalu teguh memegang komitmennya. Bahkan, ia rela untuk mengorbankan segalanya demi sebuah komitmen yang telah diikrarkan. Dengan demikian, pembaca diajak untuk “berpikir ulang” tentang hakikat ketiganya. Pengungkapan cinta dalam Bisma sangat luas cakupannya. Maksudnya, bukan hanya “sekedar” cinta antara pria dan wanita (meskipun hal itu juga ada), melainkan juga dalam tataran yang lebih luas, yakni meliputi cinta terhadap keluarga, negara, dan profesi. Ketiga cinta tersebut perlu mendapat perhatian agar keseimbangan hidup benar-benar terlaksana.

PERKEMBANGAN KONSEP SASTRA ISLAM
Authors: Sudardi Bani , Hikmawati Hanifah
Published: July 2017

Islam adalah sebuah agama yang dihayati oleh pemeluknya di seluruh dunia. Konsekuensi logis dari hal tersebut ialah munculnya sastra yang dijiwai nilai-nilai Islam. Meskipun Islam disampaikan dengan kitab suci Al quran dan hadis yang berbahasa Arab, sastra Islam tidak selalu bermediakan bahasa Arab. Sastra Islam lahir dari lingkungan masyarakat bahasa tertentu yang menghayati nilai-nilai islami.   Tulisan ini merupakan suatu penelitian dengan menggunakan metode kajian pustaka (content analysis). Sumber data adalah buku-buku tentang konsep sastra dan aplikasi sastra Islam. Penelitian menunjukan bahwa ada satu konsep dasar tentang sastra Islam, yakni menjunjung tinggi keagungan Islam dengan berbagai aset yang terdapat dalam agama Islam seperti tasawuf, tokoh Islam, dan nilai-nilai Islami. Konsep sastra Islam terus berkembang dan belum memperoleh bentuk baku. sastra Islam ialah sastra yang berpegang teguh pada akidah dan akhlak sesuai dengan syariat yang telah ditetapkan. Karakteristik sastra Islam sangatlah beragam, tidak hanya dari bentuk sastranya saja, namun substansinya juga menjadi hal penting yang harus diperhatikan.

Authors: Martín Herrera Inmaculada
Published: July 2017

Conocer a través de la percepción del profesorado el papel que desempeña la prensa digital en la Educación Obligatoria es el tema de este estudio. Igualmente, nos interesa averiguar cómo influyen unas variables personales, académicas, institucionales y contextuales sobre estas percepciones. La investigación, en la que han participado 733 docentes de 76 escuelas, es un estudio no experimental de corte descriptivo. Por su parte, los datos se han recopilado mediante un cuestionario de elaboración propia, que consta de 55 ítems con los que se ha llevado a cabo un análisis cuantitativo. Los resultados revelan que los docentes se sienten moderadamente preparados para la aplicación de la prensa digital; siendo el profesorado de Primaria el que peor puntúa sus competencias tecnológicas. En general, han valorado favorablemente la prensa electrónica como un agente educador. Sin embargo, indican que en sus centros se emplea poco como recurso educativo y que no se fomenta su lectura. Respecto a las implicaciones, consideramos que el  diagnóstico realizado con esta investigación nos sirve como punto de partida para el diseño y la implantación de programas

Authors: Monreal Guerrero Inés María , Parejo Llanos José Luis , Cortón de las Heras María De la O
Published: July 2017

Resumen:El presente artículo pretende aportar algunos elementos de reflexión y análisis que contribuyan a clarificar los conceptos de «alfabetización mediática» y «ciudadanía digital» como demandas formativas surgida ante los nuevos lenguajes de comunicación en la red de la sociedad actual. En primer lugar, abordaremos el desafío que supone a nivel social y educativo la «revolución informacional» en la que nos encontramos y cómo Internet continúa generando cambios en los modos de comunicación social, y cuál ha de ser, a nuestro modo de ver, el papel de la educación para formar de modo crítico en el uso de los mismos. En segundo lugar, analizaremos la coexistencia lenguajes que posibilitan una mayor comunicación y, a su vez, ponen en riesgo de exclusión y desigualdad social a muchos colectivos. En el marco de la convergencia de medios y lenguajes nuevos, propondremos, en tercer lugar, un nuevo modelo de «alfabetización múltiple» que posibilite la comprensión de nuevos lenguajes y formas de comunicación multimedia. Aprender a ser competente en el contexto digital e informacional lo presentaremos, en cuarto lugar, como una demanda de la sociedad y mundo globalizado en el que vivimos. Por último y en quinto lugar, plantearemos la transformación de las democracias occidentales actuales a través de la participación de una «ciudadanía digital» transformadora. Abstract:This article sets out to provide some elements of reflection and analysis that contribute to the clarification of the concepts of “media literacy” and the “digital citizen”, as educational demands arising from the new languages of communication in the network of today’s society.  Firstly, we will address the challenge presented by the “information revolution” that we find ourselves in - both at a social and educational level - and how the internet continues to generate change in the methods of social communication, and which must be, to our minds, the role of education to create a critical awareness in the use of such.  Secondly, we will analyse the co-existence of languages, which facilitate improved communication yet, at the same time, put many groups at risk of social exclusion and inequality.  In the realm of the convergence of new means and languages, we will propose, in third place, a new model of “multiple literacy” that makes comprehension of new languages and forms of multimedia communication possible.  In fourth place, we will present learning to be competent in the digital and information context as a demand of the globalised society and world in which we live.  Finally, and in fifth place, we contemplate the transformation of the western democracies through the participation of a “digital citizen” transformation.

Acid Jetting in Carbonate Rocks: An Experimental Study
Authors: Ndonhong V.. , Belostrino E.. , Zhu D.. , Hill A. D. , Beckham R. E. , Shuchart C. E.
Published: July 2017

Acid jetting, as a well-stimulation method for carbonate reservoirs, has shown optimistic results in the production enhancement of some extended-reach horizontal wells. It was used initially to promote damage removal along a wellbore by means of multiple strategically located injection nozzles. It has the potential to place the injecting fluid at the locations that need stimulation. Jetting may also enhance wormhole propagation compared with conventional matrix acidizing. The hypotheses for the design of more-efficient stimulation treatments are currently being investigated.

We have conducted an experimental study to investigate the effect of jetting on wormhole efficiency. Each jetting experiment was conducted as a constant-pressure (equivalent to a desired initial flux through the core) linear coreflood test, in which a standoff distance is maintained between the injection nozzle tip and the core. At low-velocity acid injection, jetting effectively removes mud filter cake by mechanical actions. Jetting also creates wormholes in limestone cores. The combination of mechanical and chemical reaction stimulates limestone rocks better than matrix acidizing without the jetting nozzle. When the jetting velocity increased, the dissolution pattern changed. An isolated local compact dissolution results in a cavity at the entries of core samples by jetting, followed by a wormhole structure. With the known dissolution pattern, sensitivity studies are carried out to investigate the effect of various parameters on the experimental outcome.

We used Indiana and Winterset limestone rocks in the experiments. A 15% hydrochloric acid (HCl) (by weight) at ambient temperature was used, and the core dimensions were 4 in. in diameter and 16 in. in length. Various combinations of acid jetting velocities and acid fluxes were considered. The Winterset limestone cores are more heterogeneous, with higher porosity and lower permeability than the Indiana limestone cores. The experimental results from the two different rock samples are compared.

Overall, the experimental results indicate that acid jetting follows the same trend as matrix acidizing, regarding wormhole propagation after cavities are created. Jetting velocity and acid flux are the critical parameters in jetting design for optimal stimulation results. Acid jetting tends to create different dissolution patterns for the cores from Indiana limestone and Winterset limestone. The observations from this work highlight the importance of understanding the dynamic physical and chemical process of jetting in the design of successful acid-stimulation jobs.
Sustainability-inspired composting latrine design
Authors: Kierys D. , Barkdoll B.
Published: July 2017

In support of the Millennium Development Goals to provide improved sanitation to the world, a sustainability-inspired composting latrine design based on work in rural Panama, but also applicable to similar situations, is offered here. The design is based on the three aspects of sustainability namely economic, social, and technical. The new design will allow for improved health for current and future generations. The design is less costly (economic), is based on concepts to improve the likelihood of use based on interviews with potential users (social), and provides better quality compost through ammonia-based treatment (technical). The design consists of two ferrocement compost vaults to save money over conventional vaults, urine storage tanks to improve ammonia conditions in the compost, urine control valves for urine control, a water-washing bidet for personal washing (as preferred by the users), and a handwashing station within the latrine superstructure for convenience.
Optimization of water distribution networks using a modified particle swarm optimization algorithm
Authors: Surco Douglas F. , Vecchi Thelma P. B. , Ravagnani Mauro A. S. S.
Published: July 2017

In the present work, a model is presented for the optimization of water distribution networks (WDN). The developed model can be used to verify node pressures, head losses, and fluid flow rate and velocity in each pipe. The algorithm is based on particle swarm optimization (PSO), considering real and discrete variables and avoiding premature convergence to local optima using objective function penalization. The model yields the minimum cost of the network, the node pressures and the velocities in the pipes. The pressures and velocities are calculated using the hydraulic simulator Epanet. Some benchmark problems are used to test the applicability of the developed model, considering WDN for small-, medium-, and large-scale problems. Obtained results are consistent with those found in the literature.
Stainless Steel Beam-Columns Behaviour
Authors: Jandera Michal , Syamsuddin Denny , Zidlicky Bretislav
Published: July 2017

There are several methods for considering the interaction between compression and bending for slender steel members. This is covered by the interaction formula and the general method, currently. For stainless steel, the structural design standards have been developed largely in-line and refer to carbon steel design guidelines. The current stainless steel interaction formula of axial force and bending moment given in EN 1993-1-4 was derived on limited results available. On the other hand, the general method may be used without any change for stainless steel according to the Eurocode despite the non-linear stress-strain behaviour, which obviously could lead to some drawbacks. Hence, the main objective of this paper is to compare the analysis results with existing Eurocode design formulas, the general method and some formula taken from experimental and parametric studies, showing their possible applicability, weaknesses and the need of further development. The conclusions are not applicable for stainless steel only, but they may be used for other non-linear materials such as aluminium alloys to some extent.
Nonlinear Behaviour of Mid-rise Steel Buildings with Gate Braced Frames
Authors: Güneyisi Esra Mete , Gültekin Ayşegül
Published: July 2017

Off-center or gate braced frames are a special configuration of inverted V bracing with non-straight diagonal members that are made of two elements connected to the corner of the frame by another member. This arrangement is characterized by an eccentricity of the intercepted bracing as respect to the straightness of the theoretical working length of the diagonal members in chevron configuration. These types of braced frames permit larger openings with significant advantages in terms of architectural functionality. The seismic performance of gate braced frames differs from that of traditional chevron braced frames, because of the out-of-straightness eccentricity of bracing members and the position of the corner-to-brace connecting element. Therefore, in this paper, a numerical parametric study based on both nonlinear static pushover and dynamic time-history analyses is presented and discussed in order to examine the influence of brace-to-brace detailing on seismic response of this structural typology. The results showed that the initial stiffness, the strength and the interstorey drift demand are very sensitive to the out-of-straightness eccentricity of bracing.
An Application of Intervention Mapping as a Phased Approach in Developing a Family-centred Programme to Reduce Violence in the Family
Authors: Ryan Jill , Roman Nicolette V.
Published: July 2017

Aim:

To describe the application of intervention mapping in the development of a family-centred approach to reduce violence in the family.

Methods:

Development towards a family-centred approach is described, in which only the first three steps of the five intervention mapping steps have been detailed. These three steps are unpacked as phases. Phase I, a family violence needs assessment which includes a policy analysis. Phase II determines appropriate theoretical and practical approaches through systematic reviews and lastly, Phase III as a Delphi study.

Results:

Intervention mapping as a form of programme development is inclusive of all relevant stakeholders and allows diverse engagement with family-centred information through its structured development process.

Conclusion:

Family violence should be seen as a holistic phenomenon which affects all members of the family and future interventions must be mindful of this to address family violence effectively.

The kinds of knowledge principals use: Implications for training
Authors: Lazaridou Angeliki
Published: July 2017

Information about how school principals operate pertains mainly to the actions of principals. However, the kinds of knowledge that the principalship demands have not been isolated as clearly, more often than not being conflated with actions. As principals’ duties become more complex, it becomes more important to ground specific practices in robust knowledge of relevant theoretical principles. One aspect of the principal’s job where this is particularly germane is the resolution of unfamiliar, complex, unstructured challenges. This paper presents findings from research into how principals think when dealing with problematic situations, in particular the types of knowledge they use. Four broad categories of knowledge were identified and, within those, twelve specific types. The research lends credence to the oral report or think-aloud method for making thinking processes available for analysis, and the findings indicate how the content of preparation programs may be adjusted to better qualify principals for the contemporary demands of their work. A prime recommendation is the inclusion of opportunities for the development of tacit knowledge.

Many urban districts in the United States have difficulty attracting and retaining quality teachers, yet they are often the most in need of them. In response, U.S. states and districts are experimenting with financial incentives to attract and retain high-quality teachers in high-need, low-achieving, or hard-to-staff urban schools. However, relatively little is known about how effective financial incentives are to recruit new teachers to high-need urban schools. This research explores factors that are important to the job choices of teachers in training. Focus groups were held with students at three universities, and a policy-capturing study was done using 64 job scenarios representing various levels of pay and working conditions. Focus group results suggested that: a) many pre-service teachers, even relatively late in their preparation, are not committed to a particular district and are willing to consider many possibilities, including high need schools; b) although pay and benefits were attractive to the students, loan forgiveness and subsidies for further education were also attractive; and c) small increments of additional salary did not appear as important or attractive as other job characteristics. The policy-capturing study showed that working conditions factors, especially principal support, had more influence on simulated job choice than pay level, implying that money might be better spent to attract, retain, or train better principals than to provide higher beginning salaries to teachers in schools with high-poverty or a high proportion of students of color.
Improving Student Achievement: Can Ninth Grade Academies Make A Difference?
Authors: Styron Ronald Anthony , Peasant Eddie J
Published: July 2017

This study focused on student achievement in ninth grade schools or academies compared to ninth grade students enrolled in traditional high schools. Student achievement was measured by standardized test scores. Other variables tested were gender and ethnicity. All students used in this study were enrolled in the ninth grade during the 2005-2006 school year at one of six schools selected for this research. Participants were enrolled in Algebra I and/or Biology I course(s) and therefore took the standardized Subject Area Test in these disciplines. Data indicated students enrolled in ninth grade academies scored significantly higher then ninth graders enrolled in traditional high schools on both the Algebra I and Biology test. Further analysis of data revealed significant differences based on ethnicity in achievement of Biology I students in the ninth grade academies when compared to the Biology I students in the traditional high schools. The African American students in the ninth grade academies had a higher mean score on the Biology I SAPT than Caucasian and African American students enrolled in the traditional high schools. Additionally, the Caucasian students in the ninth grade academies scored only .03 higher than the mean score of African American students in the ninth grade academies.
Teachers, policymakers and project learning: The questionable use of ‘hard’ and ‘soft’ policy instruments to influence the implementation of curriculum reform in Hong Kong
Authors: Fok Ping Kwan , Kennedy Kerry J. , Chan Jacqueline Kin Sang
Published: July 2017

Following the return of Hong Kong to Chinese sovereignty in 1997, the government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region developed wide-ranging curriculum reforms, including project learning. A recent survey has indicated that over 80% of Hong Kong primary and secondary schools have adopted project learning as a curriculum task. Such an outcome is hard to reconcile both with the culture of Hong Kong schools and the generally bleak picture that pervades the literature on educational change.

In seeking an explanation for this apparent success we focus attention on the policy instruments that were used by government agencies to facilitate the process of implementation. Our analysis revealed that teachers were caught in a pincer movement that involved voluntary activities promoting project learning and coercive measures that monitored and evaluated successful implementation. Teachers’ views of these policy instruments differed markedly from those of policymakers. This confluence of mixed approaches, while apparently successful, is also shown to be problematic. Finally, the paper is located in a theoretical framework with its origins in recent policy theory that to date has not been applied to educational contexts.
A Mandatory Uniform Policy in Urban Schools: Findings from the School Survey on Crime and Safety: 2003-04
Authors: Han Seunghee
Published: July 2017

The main purpose of the study is to examine the relations between a mandatory school uniform policy and student problem behavior. The study is based on the School Survey on Crime and Safety (SSOCS) 2003-04 data. Analyzing data from 421 urban schools, the study found that schools adopting a mandatory uniform policy are negatively associated with rates of student problem behaviors except at the high school level. As with other school safety initiatives, parental involvement at the elementary school level, and teacher training and community efforts at the high school level were revealed as negative predictors of student problem behavior.
System Transfer, Education, and Development in Mozambique
Authors: Cossa Jose
Published: July 2017

In this study the author used conceptual historical method to assess the phenomenon of system transfer and the association between education and development in Mozambique. The assessment was administered through critical analysis of documents pertaining to the Salazar (1924-1966), Machel (1975-1986), and Chissano (1986-2005) administrations. The findings were that (a) the colonial government created economic and educational systems for colonizing Mozambique, whereas the Machel and Chissano administrations adapted foreign systems of government and education (i.e., Socialism, Soviet, Democracy, Portuguese, etc.), to their particular context without altering the inherent theoretical basis of the systems transferred; (b) the Machel and Chissano administrations, implicitly or explicitly, perceived the relationship between education and development as circular causality rather than a unidirectional linear causality, while the Salazar administration perceived it as unidirectional linear causality; and (c) while the Machel and Chissano administrations focused on primary education, literacy campaigns, and education of women and girls, they differed in the reasons for such focus.
Research Courses in Educational Leadership Programs: Relevance in an Era of Accountability
Authors: Bustamante Rebecca M. , Combs Julie P.
Published: July 2017

This study examined master’s degree level research course offerings of 72 university educational leadership programs to examine the relevance of course content to the research skills required of practicing school leaders. Researchers analyzed course titles and descriptions using a classic content analysis approach and the method of constant comparison. The number of research courses required by each program was analyzed descriptively. Findings revealed considerable variation in research course requirements, course titles, and course descriptions between university programs, suggesting a potential lack of consensus on the importance of research skills to school leadership as well as on how these skills typically are identified and described. Analysis of course descriptions indicated minimal emphasis on inquiry skills focused on actual school improvement and program evaluation. This research points to the need for further studies on research course offerings and the inquiry skills needed by practicing school leaders.
Unexpected Realities: Lessons from China’s New English Textbook Implementation
Authors: Niu Rui
Published: July 2017

Although studies have been done in China’s large cities on education policy issues, research is lacking on China’s smaller towns, which are more indicative of the situations throughout China. This article presents lessons learned from studying Chinese English teachers at four different schools that were adopting new English textbooks, in accordance with revised national education policy. Using conflict theory and social action theory as an analytical lens, and combining ethnographic and naturalistic inquiry as research methods, the article reports on the conflicts that the Chinese English teachers confronted as they were adopting the new English textbooks at the classroom level. Analysis of the implementation conflict resulted in lessons learned related to the influence of the traditional cultural and education structures, the impact of policy implementation contexts, and the availability of support systems for teachers. The lessons indicate that future education policymakers in both China and the United States need to be mindful of obstacles that teachers struggle to overcome when implementing new policies.
Use of ePortfolios in K-12 teacher hiring in North Carolina: Perspectives of school principals
Authors: Ndoye Abdou , Ritzhaupt Albert Dieter , Parker Michele A
Published: July 2017

This study explored the perceptions of principals involved in the hiring process of K–12 teachers in 11 counties in southeastern North Carolina. Forty-nine principals responded to a survey on ePortfolio use in the hiring process: the pros and cons, desirable artifacts, stage of use, preferred delivery method, and improvements that can increase their usage. We examined each of these questions and whether certain factors (prior use, technology skills, and years as a hiring agent) predict principals' ePortfolio use. Our findings suggest that ePortfolios provide improved and current information about teacher candidates that is easily accessible and organized. Collectively, this allows principals to assess teacher candidates’ suitability for employment. Although, there are problems associated with ePortfolio use during hiring, which are detailed below, the results suggest that principals most frequently use ePortfolios during the interview process, prefer delivery via a website address, and that prior use is the best predictor of future ePortfolio use.
Antecedents of teachers fostering effort within two different management regimes: an assessment-based accountability regime and regime without external pressure on results
Authors: Christophersen Knut-Andreas , Elstad Eyvind , Turmo Are
Published: July 2017

This article focuses on comparison of antecedents of school teaching intensity exerted by teachers in two quite different accountability regimes: one management regime with an external-accountability system and one regime with no external accountability devices. The methodology involved was cross-sectional surveys from two different management systems: (1) teachers working under assessment-based accountability in a city authority (N=236) and (2) folk-high-school teachers who work without tests and examinations and thereby without external pressure on results (N=366). The purpose of the study was to estimate the path coefficients in structural equation modelling in the two regimes and compare the strength of relationships between concepts in the structural models. Through this comparison we draw inferences suggesting how the strength of accountability repercussions and other leadership antecedents can influence teacher learning intensity in teaching and how strength in qualitative aspects among school professionals may influence learning intensity in teaching. Implications for practice and directions for future research are discussed.
