The inclusion of research in teacher education curricula has gained wide acceptance within the teacher education community. However, little is known about how and what student teachers learn about research, especially amongst those for whom this represents a new area of their learning. This paper presents an alternative approach to describing the process of research in connection with different types of knowledge about research likely to be acquired and developed by student teachers in different modes of involvement in research in formal contexts of instruction. The descriptor may serve as a framework for studies concerned with the involvement of teachers in research or as a pedagogic tool and a guide to the development of teaching and learning activities on research methods courses for teachers.

Despite the benefits highlighted in the literature, PD remains a niche approach to language teaching and learning, with a limited number of practitioners in Japan. This study seeks to uncover language teachers' experiences of becoming Process Drama Practitioners (PDPs) and using and sharing PD as an English language teaching approach in Japanese HE. Data were collected via in-depth interviews with six experienced PDPs. The findings indicate that prior positive experiences with drama was an encouraging factor of the adoption and self-directed initial use of PD in their teaching practices. Positive student outcomes and feedback were primary motivators for continued use of PD. Experiences of sharing PD led to a perceived need to distinguish PD from theatre-based approaches and establish connections to familiar approaches to language teaching. </jats:p>

En este contexto, es crucial encontrar formas de promover la aceptación de la diversidad cultural. Los procesos de aprendizaje que se generan en los diferentes contextos educativos parecen ser fundamentales para promover el desarrollo de la interculturalidad. Para garantizar una educación intercultural sólida es necesario incorporar el concepto de multiculturalidad e inclusión en el aula. El objetivo de este trabajo es estudiar cómo los profesores pueden trabajar la educación musical desde una perspectiva intercultural, con el fin de integrar los distintos elementos culturales para los diferentes intereses de los estudiantes en el aula.

Se trata de un estudio exploratorio, de carácter cualitativo, en el que participaron 31 maestros pertenecientes a las escuelas públicas y privadas de Portugal. Los resultados obtenidos corroboran, en general, las representaciones teóricas y los resultados empíricos presentados en la literatura de la especialidad. Los maestros expresan la importancia del aprendizaje socioemocional, pero sus prácticas en el aula varían según los intereses individuales de cada maestro, manifestandoque, en su realidad escolar, a pesar de la valoración implícita sobre el aprendizaje socioemocional, la ausencia de una regulación curricular específica a nivel nacionalsobre el desarrollo socioemocional de los alumnos hace que la implicación de la escuela dependa de l...

In Portugal new legislation passed in 2018 (Decree-law 54/2018) brought a new perspective in inclusive education for all educational agents. Three years later, it is essential that the legislation is evaluated by the teachers implementing it. Forty-three primary and secondary school teachers and two coordinators of multidisciplinary teams providing inclusive education support were the participants of our study. The data collection instruments were a questionnaire and interviews. This study values the participants’ narratives, highlighting the new concepts and attitudes required for the implementation of the new inclusive education legal framework in Portugal. The results of the thematic analysis were organized around four key themes: 1. Theoretical representations; 2. Practices; 3. Challenges; and 4. Training. It is also worth noting the notions of collaborative work, the need for ref...

Data were collected from an online survey (n=28) and a series of semi-structured interviews (n=9). The analysis of the survey data informed the qualitative phase of data collection. Both survey and interview data show a similar pattern of digital technologies uses in which for our participants SM tools far outpaces the usages of AI tools. We argue that the unique characteristics of the online doctoral students might have determined the popularity of some digital tools. The study findings help us to better understand students digital experience as both individuals and learners.

El objetivo principal es conocer hasta qué punto la visualización de la interpretación musical transmite emociones diferentes de las transmitidas solo al escucharla. Diversos estudios han demostrado que la percepción de las emociones provocadas por la escucha de la música está en gran medida influenciada por la interpretación de los músicos. En este estudio, se utilizó un cuestionario compuesto por preguntas cerradas para recopilar los datos. Participaron 125 estudiantes de sus respectivas instituciones de educación superior tanto en Portugal como en España. Los resultados obtenidos corroboran, en general, las representaciones teóricas y los resultados empíricos presentados en la literatura previa. Los participantes muestran que la visualización de una obra musical genera diferentes emociones generadas p...

Esta conjuntura aponta para a necessidade da adoção de modalidades de trabalho diferentes do tradicional modelo individualista. Apesar dos benefícios atribuídos ao trabalho colaborativo em termos de crescimento profissional dos professores e consequente melhoria da qualidade do ensino, continua a verificar-se uma forte resistência à adoção de novos modelos de trabalho entre pares. No entanto, ainda que lentamente há casos de escolas e agrupamentos onde esta tendência tem sido contrariada. O presente artigo centra-se num estudo de caso de uma Escola 2,3/S do distrito de Setúbal, caracterizada pela implementação, por parte do órgão de gestão, de um conjunto de medidas destinadas a promover o trabalho colaborativo entre os docentes. Constituiu objetivo geral do estudo compreender o impacto das medid...

Research has shown that children`s development of social and emotional skills at preschool age is critical for long-term school and life success. Teachers play a key role in this process. There is evidence to indicate that effective SEL depends, among other factors on the way teachers construct and incorporate SEL in their daily practices. In this qualitative, exploratory study we aimed to uncover and understand Portuguese preschool teachers` representations and practices of SEL as a contribution to filling in a perceived gap in the Portuguese empirical literature. Our findings indicate that our participants shared a positive view and an awareness of the theoretical foundations of SEL. However, in terms of practice, they revealed to make use of a limited repertoire of SEL strategies, which points to the need for greater attention to the practices of SEL in teacher initial training and continuing professional development initiatives.

Despite the high rates of this diagnosis among Portuguese adults, there is a lack of measures to assess it. In this study, we assessed the psychometric properties of a Portuguese adaptation of the Adult Separation Anxiety questionnaire (ASA-27) on a sample of 267 adults (72.7% women) aged 18–80 years (M= 40.5,SD= 13.1). Factor structure, internal consistency, and convergence validity were examined. This study confirmed the single-factor structure of the Portuguese version of ASA-27. Consistency was high for the total sample (ω = .92) and by gender (ω = .93 and 92, men and women groups, respectively). The scale was positively related to the Portuguese version of State-Trait Anxiety Inventory (STAI) (r= .57,p< .001, for both State and trait anxiety scales) and Composite Codependency Scale total ...

This study aims to investigate primary school teachers` perceptions of giftedness and their experiences of working with gifted children in their regular classes. This is an exploratory study with 13 teachers and the data were collected through semi-structured interviews. Our participants tended to represent giftedness with an emphasis on the intellectual traits of gifted learners and to adjust their pedagogical approach accordingly. Their assessment practices focused essentially on product-oriented approaches instead of process-oriented approaches. Our findings suggest that there is still a long way to go, especially in terms of formal teacher training, to tailor teaching to the needs and characteristics of gifted learners.

With the aim of reviewing the literature for a holistic picture of the issue, related articles published between 2010 and 2018 (till October) were reviewed, analyzed, and coded through a qualitative content analysis approach. To be included in the review, publications needed to meet the following criteria: (a) inclusion of adolescent sample, (b) psychological constructs as study variables, and (c) peer-reviewed academic journals. Articles were analyzed according to the country of origin, discipline, research design, sample population, sample size, whether ethnicity of the sample being diverse or unified, publication year, psychological construct used, data analysis method, number of pages, SNSs tools specified and direction of the results. Various findings were obtained based on content analysis categories. Although ne...
