- Perspectives on the transition to higher education in Europe: an approach focused on literaturePublication . Pinto, Daniela; Lopes, Amélia; Mouraz, AnaThis article aims to map the research trends on the processes of students’ transition to higher education in the European context. For this, a review of literature was carried out, aiming to understand how the processes of transition to higher education in Europe are being studied. The qualitative analysis of these references allowed us to understand how the research relates to the social and political situations in the contexts in which it occurs, and it was possible to identify relationships between research perspectives and the challenges of educational contexts over time. From this premise, there are also differences found between studies of the European context, in general, and those that are specific to the Portuguese context. While in the European context an educational perspective on the transition is highlighted, in the Portuguese context, a more psychological or individual perspective was found, with a greater focus on the student and his/her characteristics.
- Veteran teachers and the challenges of curriculum innovationPublication . Mouraz, Ana; Lopes, Amélia; Morgado, José Carlos; Torres, Ana CristinaThe question that underlies this text is to think about the professional re-enchantment of veteran teachers in the context of a project that aimed to promote ICT as a vehicle for improving curriculum agency among these professionals, diminishing the intergenerational gap they face in their classrooms and in their schools. Rekindle+50 – Digital migrations and curricular innovation: giving new meaning to experience and rekindle teaching profession after 50, is a project that invested in an idea of training for professional development that aims to place teachers and their curricular decisions, assisted by ICT devices, at the heart of the training action. The chapter provides an overview concerning discourses about innovation, curriculum and technologies that challenge veteran teachers in Portugal, describes, briefly, the Rekindle+50 project in its attempt to study the conditions of professional re-enchantement of veteran teachers, and presents the preliminary results of the project.
