  • Projeto de semestralização do ano escolar no município de S. João da Madeira: perspetivas de professores
    Publication . Machado, Eusébio André; Abelha, Marta; Seabra, Filipa; Correia, Luís Grosso
    A semestralização do calendário escolar foi implementada a título experimental no âmbito de Planos de Inovação/Ação, formalizados através de contratos entre as escolas e o Ministério da Educação (ME), através da Direção-Geral da Educação (DGE), conforme estabelecido na Portaria n.º 181/2019, de 11 de junho. Cinquenta e cinco escolas ou agrupamentos participaram na fase piloto, cuja avaliação, conduzida por uma equipa da Universidade de Lisboa em 2020 (Costa, Almeida & Viana, 2020), apontou várias vantagens, embora sem a considerar uma solução inevitável. Em 2020/2021, o Município de S. João da Madeira aderiu à semestralização nos seus três agrupamentos de escolas e solicitou, a peritos externos, a monitorização deste processo. O projeto teve origem na necessidade de responder a um conjunto de dificuldades que afetavam o ensino e a aprendizagem, tais como: i) o desequilíbrio no número de dias entre períodos letivos; ii) a burocratização do sistema de ensino; iii) o elevado número de reuniões de avaliação sumativa, que priorizam a avaliação das aprendizagens em detrimento da avaliação para as aprendizagens; e iv) o foco excessivo dos Encarregados de Educação na avaliação quantitativa dos alunos, em vez da qualidade das suas aprendizagens. Era, assim, fundamental encontrar soluções para mitigar esses constrangimentos. Nesta comunicação, apresentamos os resultados de inquéritos realizados em 2021 junto dos professores do município, que identificam os aspetos mais e menos bem-sucedidos na implementação da semestralização. Foram recolhidos dados sobre a partiipação dos professores no processo, bem como sobre os impactos na avaliação das aprendizagens, nas dinâmicas do trabalho pedagógico e no sucesso escolar. As perspe]vas dos professores revelam-se, em geral, favoráveis à semestralização, embora e a título de exemplo, parte significativa dos professores discorda ter havido desburocratização com o projeto de semestralização.

  • Oficina de desenho e gravura: relato de uma experiência de residência artística
    Publication . Ebert, Andrea; Bastos, Glória; Manuel
    This article addresses the possibilities that a Resident Artist project can achieve in the context of animations and activities to promote the development of skills in the area of drawing and engraving, in a school context, combined with various multiliteracies. Some elements related to the National Arts Plan and the role of the Resident Artist are discussed, in conjunction with the school library. In the empirical part, the activities carried out are described and analyzed, as well as the results of the evaluation carried out by the students involved in the activities. In particular, the engraving workshop allowed students to use this form of expression as a tool to create visual languages and thus draw a bridge between visual language, written language and also verbal language. The concept of creativity in this project indicated paths to important elements regarding visual literacy, information literacy, the construction of knowledge and therefore emancipation, fundamental functions that the school library intends to offer and also meets the statement in the Student Profile Upon Exit of Compulsory Schooling. The results obtained, combined with AR's self-reflection, reveal the relevance of actions such as the one carried out in this project.

  • Decision making in virtual classrooms: a case for organisational democracy in teacher education for democracy
    Publication . Neves, Claudia; Oliveira, Juliana; Almeida, Ana Patrícia; Abelha, Marta; Abrantes, Pedro
    Organizational democracy in education emphasizes participatory decision-making processes, involving teachers, students, and other stakeholders in shaping educational policies and practices. In teacher education, organizational democracy involves decision-making that empower them to contribute to the design and improvement of educational programs. This concept underscores the importance of cocreating with teachers to foster democratic values and equip them with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes necessary to promote democratic principles within students and learning community. This approach fits into the ongoing discussion about education and the common good, questioning how education itself can be understood as “common” and as a promoter of common goods (Bollier, 2018; Velicu & Garcia -Lopez, 2020). Analyzing organizational democracy involves examining various dimensions to gain a comprehensive understanding of how democratic principles are embedded within the organizational structure and culture. The AECED project aims to develop a prototype of a pedagogical framework and guides to practice that encourages the development of activities based on arts-based embodied methods in order to provide experiences of democracy-as-becoming. The Portuguese case will carry out 4 of the case studies of the project based on the development of an online training course for teachers and educators who, using a Participatory Action-Research (PAR) methodology (Cornish, et al. 2023), will test the framework and guide in early years, primary and vocational education. In this paper we will present a set of data relating to the perceptions of teachers and educators that participated in the online course about the organizational transformation before and after the development of the activities based on the pedagogical framework and guides of AECED project. Our aim was to identify perceptions about the organizational transformation on the following dimensions: transformative dialogue, power sharing, holistic learning, relational well-being, collaborative decision-making, shared leadership, innovation, and Creativity; Conflict Resolution and Inclusivity and Diversity. By examining these dimensions, researchers and organizations can gain insights into the level of organizational democracy and identify areas for improvement or refinement.
  • Psychopedagogical support in online education: strategies and benefits
    Publication . Goulão, Fátima; Pixel, International Conferences
    The growing advance of technology has expanded the use of online learning. Many students may face challenges when making the transition to online learning, such as the lack of face-to-face interaction and the need for self-discipline. Psycho-pedagogical support can help students adapt to this new environment by offering guidance and resources to develop self-management and organisational skills. This article explores the importance of psycho-pedagogical support in online learning. Here we highlight the strategy we used to help students who were in the first year of an online degree course. To this end, a non-formal space was created where challenges were presented, through forums, with themes that were not only relevant to the development of study and adaptation strategies, but also promoted the socio-emotional development of the students who wanted to take part in this experience. Online learning can be isolating and emotionally challenging for some students. Psycho-pedagogical support provides a safe space for students to express their concerns, deal with academic stress and develop effective coping skills. In brief, by implementing effective psycho-pedagogical support strategies, students' well-being can be promoted and, as a result, their learning potential maximised
  • The role of self-efficacy in online education: Perspectives, challenges, and practical implications
    Publication . Goulão, Fátima; REDINE, Red de Investigación e Innovación Educativa, Madrid, Spain
    With the exponential growth of online learning, driven by the rapid evolution of digital technology and the need for flexibility in learning, there is a need to understand how psychological factors, such as self-efficacy, influence students’ experience in this environment. This article aims to explore the concept of self-efficacy in the context of online learning, examining its implications for student engagement, performance, and satisfaction. Self-efficacy theory describes an individual’s belief in their ability to successfully perform a particular task or achieve a specific goal. In online teaching, self-efficacy plays a crucial role as students face unique challenges such as time management, self-discipline and adapting to learning technologies. In our research we used a sample of 204 online students. Of these, 84.3% are female and 15.7% are male. The average age is 40 (SD 9.1), with a maximum age of 65 and a minimum of 21. The mode was 39 years. The self-efficacy questionnaire had a Cronbach’s alpha of 0.943. The average grade in the course is 16, with a mode of 17. The correlation between the grades and the level of self-efficacy was positive, but not statistically significant. In other words, our data is in line with the theory, despite not being statistically significant. One of the possible explanations could be the small variability of the classifications, which are quite high.
  • The Profile of Students and Their Study Strategies – A Diagnosis of the Strengths and Weaknesses of a Student Group in Relation to the Use of Study Strategies
    Publication . Goulão, Fátima
    In our study, we aim to define the profile of a group of students enrolled in the first year of an online undergraduate programme. Our sample consists of 166 students of both genders, with an average age of 42 years. We used a 35-item questionnaire as a data collection instrument, which enabled us to analyse the behaviour of these students. Statistical analysis of the questionnaire indicates a high level of internal consistency. The responses reveal strong confidence in their learning, realistic goal setting, self-awareness, and careful time management, with students planning tasks and study time in advance when preparing for assessments. The less positive aspect identified is the difficulty of studying with others or in groups. In summary, by developing and implementing study strategies tailored to the online context, students can maximise their learning, engagement, and academic success, as well as further develop their strategies for self-regulated learning.
