Abstract:
This dissertation presents multiple facets of the assessment system reform of the School Leaving Certificate (SLC) exam in Nepal through grounded theory methodology. The main purpose of this study is to develop a substantive grounded theory of the reform that explicates a complete process of the assessment reform, i.e., how this reform was conceptualized, what was done as a foundational preparation, how it was implemented, and what were the preliminary responses to the reform implementation. In order to theorize the reform process, this study applied a constructivist grounded theory approach, specifically based on the work of Charmaz (1996, 2005, 2006, 2012), as the research methodology. The data were collected by conducting 10 focus group discussions and 24 one-on-one semi-structured interviews. The participants represented almost all the categories of stakeholders (e.g., policymakers, employers, teachers, students) as well as experts and educators. The emergent conceptual categories and sub-categories from the interviews and focus group discussions were categorized under three constructs: (1) Conceptualization of the reform, (2) implementation of the reform and (3) reform effects. The first construct covers those theme categories and sub-categories that state the origin and type of the reform, reform aims, and framework as well as preparation for the reform. Similarly, the second construct includes those theme categories and sub-categories that inform the mechanism underpinning reform related information dissemination, the strategic plan used to implement the reform and factors that could influence the reform process. Finally, the third construct comprises those categories that discuss reform associated quandaries and condemnation, factors contributing to magnifying the quandaries, resultant opportunities from the reform, reform impact, step forward, and other relevant categories. The findings have been explicated under three phases- the pre-implementation phase, the implementation phase and the post-implementation phase as the integrated grounded theory. The theoretical components presented under the pre-implementation phase include exhaustive analysis of need and feasibility; input from experts, educators and key stakeholders; clarity on reform aims and objectives; cooperative triangular relationships; comprehensive documentation; explicit roadmap and exhaustive planning; infrastructure and resource management, and capacity building. Similarly, three major theoretical components- teacher advocacy, stakeholder ownership, and timely and authentic information have been described under the implementation phase. Finally, eight major theoretical components, such as identification and analysis of resulting issues, immediate actions for the urgent/sensitive issues, special programs for the low-grade holders, bridge between academic and vocational programs, need for impact analysis, effective communication channel, need for institutional memory, need for an unconventional assessment system, and need for a resourceful unit of assessment and testing have been presented under the post-implementation phase. The combination of the theoretical components described under the three phases mentioned above is the integrated substantive grounded theory of the assessment system reform in Nepal. This study contributes by adding value for those involved in assessment reform as well as the academicians and researchers because it puts forward recommendations for foundational preparation and homework in the conceptual phase of assessment reform; action steps to minimize the possible resistance to reform; strategies to implement the reform successfully; and initiatives to institutionalize the reform or address the resulting issues and concerns.

Abstract:

High school exit exams have become a popular policy tool in states as well as districts and even schools as a means of improving student achievement and holding students accountable. Despite the extensive use of these exams, the behavioral responses to them and their impact on student outcomes are not fully understood. This study used a nationally representative longitudinal data set—the Educational Longitudinal Study of 2002—which tracked students starting in the spring of the 10th grade to explore the extent to which exit exam policies were associated with transfer behavior and student attainment outcomes. Transfer behavior was of interest because past research has found that schools that were successful in improving student achievement outcomes were not as successful in keeping transfer and dropout rates low (Rumberger & Palardy, 2005). Transfer behavior was conceptualized as a mediator to the likelihood of earning a regular high school diploma.

The logistic regression models used to answer the study's research questions found no evidence that statewide exit exams impacted the likelihood of transfer between the 10th and 12th grades or attainment of a regular high school diploma. There was also little evidence that the intensity of the exit exam, as measured using a composite indicator developed by the author, was associated with transfer or attainment outcomes, although the intensity may be influenced by the longevity of the policies.

Using a broader identification of exit exams that incorporated statewide exit exams, school-initiated exit exams, or locally mandated exit exams identified by school administrators, there was some limited evidence that exit exams were associated with an increased likelihood of transfer and decreased likelihood of earning a regular high school diploma. These results were particularly evident for the bottom quartile of performers on an achievement test (those most likely to fail an exit exam), while having no apparent impact on the top quartile of performers. The findings of this study suggest that school-initiated or locally mandated exit exam policies may be a confounding factor in analyses of the impact of statewide high school exit exam policies. Recommendations for future research and policy are discussed.

Abstract:
One method by which student success or failure is measured is whether or not students graduate or dropout. The current educational policy, No Child Left Behind Act of 2001, aims to close the achievement gap among different ethnic groups. Despite these goals, American Indian students have the highest dropout rate and lowest graduation rate in the country. For well over a century, federal educational policy has failed to meet the educational needs of American Indian students. This research project shows the need for perspectives to change in terms of "dropping out" and "graduating" in order to address and improve the success rates for Native American students in K-12 public schools. This thesis focuses on urban Native American student schooling experiences, calling for a need to avoid labeling students and for schools to place a greater emphasis on building positive interpersonal relationships with students and families.

Full text
Abstract:
Research shows that students who take advanced mathematics courses perform better on measures of college readiness than students who take less rigorous courses. However, no clear effect has been shown on requiring all students to take more advanced courses. This study examined whether increases in the number and level of mathematics courses required for high school graduation have resulted in increased levels of college aspirations and preparedness. Specifically, twenty years of data from a rural school district in Texas were analyzed to determine whether the impact on college entrance exam-taking and performance differed by the mathematics requirements in effect for each class. Logistic and linear regression modeling revealed no statistically significant effect of higher requirements. And while overall results by gender and race mirrored previous research, with males tending to have higher scores than females and White students tending to score higher than African-American and Latinx students, the increased requirements were not associated with any mitigation in these inequities.

Full text
Abstract:
In 1995, the Indiana General Assembly passed legislation that required a graduation exam be given to all Indiana high school students. This researcher examined the perceptions Indiana superintendents and high school principals hold toward the Indiana Graduation Qualifying Exam (GQE).The population of the study consisted of all public school superintendents and public school high school principals listed in the 2001 Indiana Division of School Finance and Education Information database. The entire population was sent the Indiana's Graduation Qualifying Exam Survey, which was developed by the researcher. The survey instrument consisted of demographic questions asking for personal and professional characteristics, 20 statements designed to generate respondent perceptions, and four open-ended questions.Findings indicated superintendents and high school principals perceived that the GQE was a valid indicator of minimum competency in English/language arts and mathematics and that the GQE encouraged students to reach minimum competency levels. The overall effect of the GQE was not perceived to be negative but superintendents and high school principals were unsure as to the GQE promoting the improvement of instruction or having a positive influence on student achievement. Superintendents and high school principals did not perceive the GQE was a valid measure of school effectiveness, school district effectiveness, or that it was a valid predictor of a student's future success. The study showed that changes were made by schools districts to align remediation programs, staff development and curriculum to state standards since the implementation of the GQE.Significant differences in perception were obtained between superintendents and principals, as well as among superintendents, and among principals when grouped by personal and professional characteristics.

Abstract:
Course grades, which often include non-achievement factors such as effort and behavior and are subject to individual teacher grading philosophies, suffer from issues of unreliability. Yet, course grades continue to be utilized as a primary tool for reporting academic achievement to students and parents and are used by most colleges and universities as an admissions measure. High-stakes assessment results are also used by schools to convey student achievement, and several states now require students to pass an exam to receive a diploma. What is less clear, however, is the relation between these two measures, GPA and high-stakes assessment results. One purpose of this study was to examine the predictive relation of mathematics GPA to student performance on high-stakes assessments. Multiple regression models were used to analyze the predictive relation between mathematics GPA and performance on the ACT and the Oregon Assessment of Knowledge and Skills (OAKS), two high-stakes assessments. In addition, the regression analyses were used to examine the influence of other student-level variables such as talented and gifted status and math courses taken prior to testing on the relation between mathematics GPA and performance on the two high-stakes assessments. In all, 299 high school students from a single grade-level enrolled in one Oregon suburban school district participated in the study. Results indicate that GPA is a significant variable in a high-stakes assessment outcome. Additionally, results of the multiple regression reveal significant student-level effects on assessment outcomes that reduce explained common variance in both the ACT and OAKS models. Implications for practice and suggestions for future research are discussed.

Abstract:
Research has shown that developing a transition plan with students with disabilities while they are in high school helps to make the transition into adult life less stressful and more successful. This research examines the state of transition planning in Ontario in 1997/98 using Bronfenbrenner's (1972) ecological framework. A four phased, mixed methods design was employed. In phase 1, policies and documents pertaining to transition planning were requested from all English school boards in Ontario. Only 8 boards provided documentation suggesting that not many school boards had published documentation about transition planning in 1997. If transition planning was occurring, it was mostly in place for students with developmental disabilities. In phase 2, a questionnaire was mailed to 536 high schools across Ontario. The resulting data revealed that the majority of respondents believe they are doing most of the best practices for transition but many do not have a formal transition program in place for identified students. This part of the study showed that schools were not utilizing the services of community agencies to facilitate the process to the level of its potential. Furthermore, respondents indicated that the key to a successful program was the people in the school that managed it. The top barriers to transition programs were lack of money, personnel, resources, and time. The questionnaire was followed-up by 36 telephone interviews: phase 3. The interviews provided detailed information about the barriers that transition programs face, like transportation, community size, parental involvement, teacher training, levels of collaboration, money, time, and difficulties finding work placements. In phase 4, a week long case study of a highly collaborative transition program provided an example of how one region coped and overcame some of the barriers to implementing transition planning. This research provides a snapshot of transition planning in the province of Ontario in 1997/98 and suggests that the implementation process by the Ministry of Education needs to be improved if transition planning is going to be as effective as possible. Many issues were revealed that have potential implications for ongoing research and theory beyond the boundaries of Ontario.

Full text
Abstract:
While there is general agreement about its importance, the construct of educational readiness is nebulous with much debate about what constitutes readiness. Readiness has been found to be a multidimensional psychological construct from a psychometric perspective. However, there is a growing awareness that this psychometric focus is lopsided, and that readiness does not only reside in the child. Further, there is an accompanying appreciation that readiness research may need to focus more on the subjective experience of individuals within the context of their environment. This phenomenological study, using Bronfenbrenner's social-ecological model, explored how Antigua and Barbudan students experienced readiness as they prepared to take the 2017 Caribbean Secondary Education Certificate Exam (CSEC). In an interview, each of the 12 participants recounted their experience as they readied themselves for the CSEC. The data were analyzed through content and framework analysis. The results support findings in the literature that showed that readiness is a complex and iterative process. It is the result of the dynamic interplay of various inputs of a host of individuals functioning at different levels of the readiness system. These results can then provide a point of entry for both national dialogue and policy formulation culminating in the provision of comprehensive services to support students' readiness experiences. The ultimate hope is that readiness for the CSEC Exam will lead to actual success on the exams, which in turn will translate into improved life chances of Antigua and Barbudan students.

Full text
Abstract:
In the UK education system, an ‘audit culture’ has led to pressures being placed on students to achieve high grades in their GCSEs (Torrance, 2004). It has been suggested that schools are required to achieve good academic results and look after their students’ wellbeing, causing a conflict in relation to public examinations, such as GCSEs (Putwain, 2009). School staff support both performance and wellbeing by preparing students for exams. However, research suggests that there is a danger that many underperform, or are negatively affected (emotionally) by exam stress, or both (Putwain, 2007). The aims of this research were to explore the views of students who had recently taken GCSE exams. The research aimed to gain an understanding of how Year 12 students felt their GCSE experiences affected their wellbeing and performance, what factors contributed to or alleviated their levels of exam stress, and whether theories such as Achievement Goal Theory (Elliot and McGregor, 2001) could be used to explain the individual differences in levels of exam stress. The research questions were explored using semi-structured interviews and Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis. Findings and conclusions provided ways to improve the support for students during their GCSEs, improving academic performance and wellbeing.

Full text
Abstract:
This case study analyzed the roles development and implementation have had in the Eighth-grade Algebra I policy and the California High School Exit Exam policy. From a political, economical, and historical perspective, the intended purposes of many education policies have been distorted due to implementation. By investigating national and California education policies, this case study describes the roles development and implementation have had education policies. In addition, this case study found that the state of education in California is reliant on many mitigating factors affecting education policy development and implementation: Budget cuts, achievement gaps particularly with children of color, and teacher qualification issues. However, systemic education reform requires policy makers to juggle their political affiliations and the needs of students to create policies that improve curriculum, improve student achievement, and supports teachers and administrators. When policy makers do not utilize informed constituencies to assist in policy development, mandates such as the Eighth-grade Algebra I policy are created. Well developed and researched education policies like the California High School Exit Exam, which took about six years to develop before it was implemented in California, was successful because it involved collaboration of various interest groups, educators, local education agencies, and school administrators. Policy makers must learn to work in collaboration with its constituency to develop policies that empower schools to sustain and extend greater individualization on one hand, and broaden community interest on the other. The future of California schools in regard to the Race to the Top policies remain to be seen, but if policy makers rely on the informed voices of education researchers, constituents who are willing to put students' needs before their own political conquests, school administrators, teachers, parents, and students, then California's school will have a future of systemic reform that will be bright.

Chen, Wenjun. "Relationships between Perceived Parenting Behaviors and Academic Achievement among High School Students in International Baccalaureate (IB) Programs: A Comparison of Asian American and White Students." Scholar Commons, 2015. https://scholarcommons.usf.edu/etd/5459.

Full text
Abstract:
Parenting style as a predictor of students' academic achievement is gaining increased interest by parents, educators, and psychologists. Current literature suggests that a combination of three parenting dimensions (i.e., responsiveness, supervision, and autonomy granting) is relevant to characterizing one's parenting style into four types (i.e., authoritative, authoritarian, indulgent, and neglectful), and each dimension of parenting behavior has a different effect on students' academic performance. Based on the different cultural backgrounds and the methods parents use to educate their children at home, some literature suggests that the school performance of some Asian American students could benefit from different parenting behaviors as compared to White students. Very little prior research has attended to links between parenting and achievement among high-achieving students who pursue college-level curricula during high school years, such as students enrolled in International Baccalaureate (IB) programmes. This study examined: (a) the relationships between parenting behaviors and students' achievement (i.e., semester GPA and mean score on end-of-course exams) among a combined sample of ethnically diverse IB students and then within two ethnic groups of interests (i.e., White and Asian American), (b) the differences in mean levels of students' achievement between the two aforementioned ethnic groups, and (c) differences in mean levels of parenting dimensions between two ethnic groups with regards to three parenting behaviors (i.e., responsiveness, demandingness, and autonomy granting). An archival dataset that includes data from 245 Asian American IB students and 533 White IB students was analyzed. The findings from the current study suggested that Asian American IB students earned significant higher GPAs than White IB students, while there was not a difference in performance on end-of-course exams between two groups. Second, White and Asian American IB students perceived different average levels of parenting behaviors. Specifically, White IB students reported perceiving higher levels of parental responsiveness and autonomy granting, while Asian American IB students perceiving higher level of demandingness. Additionally, responsiveness and autonomy granting both had positive relations with semester GPA within the entire sample of IB students as well as within the White IB students, while autonomy granting positively related to end-of-course exam scores within the entire IB students. All three parenting behaviors were associated with academic outcomes in a similar manner across White and Asian American IB subgroups. Specifically, responsiveness was the only significant and unique predictor of semester GPA for IB students. For end-of-course exam performance, demandingness was a negative predictor while autonomy granting was a unique positive predictor for IB students.

Abstract:
The notion that tests have a strong influence on teaching and learning is referred to as 'washback' or 'backwash'. Questioning the assumption that washback occurs automatically, without the basis of empirical research, studies have been conducted in various contexts of English teaching and learning. No research, however, on the washback effect of tests within the Korean English as a Foreign Language (EFL) context has been carried out. The present study was designed to examine the washback effect of the College Scholastic Ability Test (CSAT), a university entrance exam, on EFL teaching and learning in Korean secondary schools.
This study first investigates the relationships among the curriculum, the school textbooks, and the CSAT: (1) the relationship between the curriculum and the textbooks and (2) the relationship between the curriculum and the CSAT. Second, this study examines if a washback effect from the CSAT exists. This study further discerns the nature of washback and the variable(s) influenced by the washback effect. The results indicate that the curriculum corresponds to the textbooks, while the CSAT does not represent the curriculum, and that there is a negative washback effect of the CSAT on EFL teaching and learning. The variable(s) influenced by the washback effect are negative attitudes that the participants of the study have toward the test.

It intends to answer to some of the concerns that we have been experiencing in our professional journey, as, for example: how does the teaching of Geography should be during High School, from ENEM's proposal? Does the approach directed to Geography in ENEM's questions embrace a complex reading of the geographical space or not? How can we get our work and pedagogical knowledge closer to the current needs of High School, based on such proposal? The theoretical-methodological approach is based on the Paradigm of Complexity by Edgar Morin, being anchored in a diversity of ideas, among them, the ones from Milton Santos and Jean Piaget. The methodology used is a qualitative research, based on Uwe Flick. In line with theory, the empirical part of this study is developed in a public school located in the Metropolitan Region of the city of Porto Alegre/RS. The aim of this research is to think and evaluate ways to the Teaching of Geography which allow to discuss and reconstruct the different meanings of life, inside and outside the classroom.

COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DO PESSOAL DE ENSINO SUPERIOR
PROGRAMA DE EXCELENCIA ACADEMICA
A Educação Física parece ser uma das disciplinas mais esperadas na semana por grande parte dos alunos e alunas, durante o processo de escolarização. O fato pode ser analisado a partir da própria vivência do componente que, em geral, rompe com a fixidez do corpo, possibilitando outros espaços de movimento e reflexão. Porém, nem sempre o repertório de gestos e práticas corporais é valorizado e reconhecido pelo espaço da escola. Tal contexto pode ocasionar o engessamento de modos de se conceber as diferenças de gênero, classe, raça, sexualidade, idade, habilidade motora, etc. Assim sendo, o presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar como as questões relacionadas às diferenças culturais são tratadas pelos/as professores/as nas aulas de Educação Física do ensino médio no cotidiano de uma escola pública estadual do RJ. O interesse por investigar o ensino médio se deu pelo fato do ensino da Educação Física neste segmento ainda ser um assunto pouco abordado na área, talvez pela dificuldade dos professores/as e alunos/as em superar a famosa aula rola bola, ou ainda pelo sentimento de fracasso que ronda este segmento de ensino marcado pelo forte viés esportivizante e pela descontextualização com a cultura juvenil. Para o estudo, optamos por investigar as aulas de Educação Física de uma escola estadual, situada no bairro de Campo Grande, na Zona Oeste do município do Rio de Janeiro. Foram analisados o Projeto Político Pedagógico da escola, o currículo mínimo de Educação Física do Estado e os planos de curso dos/as professores de Educação Física. Também foram observadas aulas de Educação Física e, por fim, foram realizadas entrevistas com professores/as de Educação Física, diretores/as e coordenadoras da escola em questão. Concluímos que as diferenças culturais são percebidas no contexto das aulas de Educação Física, ora como um problema a resolver, ora como uma possibilidade de reconhecimento e respeito ao outro, embora, tais questões não sejam reconhecidas de forma explícita nas propostas curriculares vigentes. Defendemos neste estudo a consideração das diferenças culturais como constitutivas de todos e todas, e, portanto, uma questão fundamental a ser discutida nas práticas pedagógicas, no conhecimento escolar, nas relações interpessoais e, em suma, no currículo escolar.
Physical Education seems to be one of the most expected disciplines in the week by a large part of the students during the schooling process. The fact can be analyzed from the very experience of the component that breaks with the fixity of the body, allowing other spaces of movement and reflection. However, the repertoire of gestures and corporal practices is not always valued and recognized by the school space. Such a context may lead to stiffening of ways of conceiving differences of gender, class, race, sexuality, age, motor ability, etc. Therefore, the present study had as objective to analyze how questions related to cultural differences are treated by the teachers in the classes of Physical Education of the high school in the daily life of a state public school of the RJ. The interest in investigating high school was because the teaching of Physical Education in this segment is still a subject little addressed in the area, perhaps due to the difficulty of teachers and students in overcoming the famous roll the ball class, or the feeling of failure that surrounds this segment of education marked with a strong sportive bias and decontextualization with youth culture. For the study, we chose to investigate Physical Education classes at a state school, located in the Campo Grande neighborhood, in the West Zone of Rio de Janeiro. Were analyzed the school s Political Pedagogical Project, the minimum curriculum of State Physical Education and the course plans of the Physical Education teachers. Physical Education classes were also observed and, finally, interviews were conducted with physical education teachers, directors and coordinators of the school in question. We conclude that cultural differences are perceived in the context of Physical Education classes, both as a problem to be solved, and as a possibility of recognition and respect for the other, although such issues are not explicitly recognized in current curricular proposals. We defend in this study the consideration of cultural differences as constitutive of all, and therefore a fundamental issue to be discussed in pedagogical practices, school knowledge, interpersonal relations and, in short, the school curriculum.

Resumo: A presente pesquisa tem como objetivo compreender os discursos (de acordo com a perspectiva de Stephen Ball) da integração curricular e da interdisciplinaridade como uma de suas expressões, nas recentes políticas públicas curriculares. Tendo como referência o Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio (ENEM) e a recente reformulação no formato e finalidade sofrida por ele, investigamos como o discurso da integração curricular aparece nas narrativas de docentes de escolas públicas e privadas, no caso das Ciências da Natureza. Tendo como princípio metodológico a narrativa proposta por Walter Benjamin, foi constituído um quadro empírico com as histórias de professores atuantes no Ensino Médio nas disciplinas de Biologia, Física e Química. Como resultados, depreende-se que a reformulação do ENEM parece não ter influenciado as práticas curriculares. Os professores reconhecem e endossam a importância do diálogo entre as disciplinas, mas criticam as interpelações advindas do trabalho interdisciplinar, sem que condições apropriadas sejam garantidas para a realização de atividades integradas
Abstract: This research aims to understand the discourses (according to the perspective of Stephen Ball) of curriculum integration and interdisciplinarity as one of its expressions, in recent curricular policies. With reference to the National High School Exam (ENEM) and the recent reformulation of the format and purpose experienced by it, we investigate how the discourse of curriculum integration appears in the narratives of teachers from public and private schools, in the case of Natural Sciences. Using as methodological principle the narrative proposed by Walter Benjamin, we have made an empirical framework with the stories of teachers working in secondary education in biology, physics and chemistry. As a result, it appears that the recast of ENEM seems not to have influenced the curricular practices. Teachers recognize and endorse the importance of dialogue between disciplines, but criticize the resulting interpolations of interdisciplinary work, without appropriate conditions guaranteed for the realization of integrated activities

The public high school education in Brazil is a victim of the constant reformism that has been hindering the strengthening of the own identity of this education period. The more frequent and abundant use of the High School Education National Exam as the gateway to undergraduate studies in the country has had repercussion to the educational institutions, students and teachers, who live the consequences of the popularization of this exam on their professional activities. The goal of this thesis is to understand the perspective of high school teachers of a specific school in Sao Paulo about the repercussions of the High School Education National Exam (ENEM - Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio) on their professional teaching practices. Our research developed with a qualitative approach, used bibliographical research on the high school and the High School Education National Exam, characterization instrument and interviews with five teachers and one teacher coordinator of a Sumare (city in the State of São Paulo) state school, in addition to the elaboration of the researcher's field journal. Our focus was on the reconstruction of the evaluation approach by the teachers, since we work on the theoretical assumption that every educational policy is reconstructed and remeant by the subjects that receive it. The basic concepts of the area of teacher formation that guided our study were: constants of the teaching work, teaching identity and teacher development. Aside from those, we also searched for knowledge about evaluation and some policies towards the high school education in Brazil. Based on the research, we could consider that the isolated work of a teacher, the opportunities of specific teaching activities, the non-reflected consumption of the political proposal are some of the conditions based on in which the teacher acquires their professional identity in this context. However, when searching for alternatives of teaching practices, when searching for answers to challenges in a collective manner, when feeling accomplished by their role as an experience creator to the students that find in the High School Education National Exam (ENEM - Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio) their source of hope to achieve the undergraduate studies, the teacher learns and develops themselves professionally, finding strategies to remain in the teaching activities. Our research indicates that the implementation of an educational policy that does not consider the formation process of the teachers, their objective work conditions and their perspective of this policy weakens their potential to induce changes on the curriculum, teaching practices and in the learning evaluation.
O ensino médio público no Brasil é vítima de um reformismo constante que tem dificultado o fortalecimento de uma identidade própria a esta etapa de ensino. A ampliação do Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio (ENEM), como porta de acesso ao ensino superior no país, tem trazido repercussões às escolas de nível médio, a seus alunos e aos professores que vivenciam as consequências desta popularização do exame em suas práticas profissionais. O objetivo desta tese é compreender a perspectiva de professores do ensino médio de uma escola da rede estadual paulista sobre as repercussões do ENEM em suas práticas profissionais docentes. A nossa pesquisa, desenvolvida a partir de uma abordagem qualitativa, utilizou pesquisa bibliográfica sobre o ensino médio e o ENEM, instrumento de caracterização e entrevistas com cinco professores e uma professora coordenadora de uma escola estadual do município de Sumaré-SP, bem como a elaboração de diários de campo da pesquisadora. Nosso olhar esteve voltado para a reconstrução que os professores fazem da política avaliativa, já que partimos do pressuposto teórico de que toda política educacional é reconstruída e ressignificada pelos sujeitos que a recebem. Os conceitos básicos da área de formação de professores que orientaram nosso estudo foram: constantes do trabalho docente, identidade docente e desenvolvimento profissional da docência. Além destes, buscamos também compreensões sobre avaliação e algumas políticas voltadas para o ensino médio no Brasil. Diante da pesquisa pudemos considerar que o trabalho isolado do professor, as oportunidades de práticas docentes específicas, o consumo não refletido da proposta política, são algumas das condições em que o professor assume sua identidade profissional nesse contexto. No entanto, ao buscar alternativas de práticas de ensino, ao buscar respostas para desafios de forma coletiva, ao sentir-se realizado com o seu papel de criador de expectativas para os estudantes que têm no ENEM a esperança de acesso ao ensino superior, o professor aprende e se desenvolve profissionalmente encontrando estratégias para continuar na atividade docente. Nossa pesquisa indica que a implantação de uma política educacional que não considera o processo formativo dos docentes, suas condições objetivas de trabalho e a perspectiva que eles têm desta política, enfraquece o seu potencial indutor de mudanças no currículo, nas práticas docentes e na avaliação da aprendizagem.

Esta pesquisa objetivou avaliar a compreensÃo leitora das situaÃÃes-problema do Exame Nacional do Ensino MÃdio (ENEM), que contÃm em sua estrutura questÃes contextualizadas,creditando ao aspecto leitor o cerne de sua resoluÃÃo. Nossa base teÃrica fundamentou-se nos estudos de Alliende e Condemarin (2005), Brown (1980), Haberlandt (1988), Kintsch (1994),Van Dijk e Kintsch (1978), Rumelhart (1985), Silva (2005), Singer (1988), Smith (1989, 1999), Solà (1998), Spiro (1980), Van Dijk (1996), Kato (2004), Koch (2006a, 2006b) e Marcuschi (2008). A pesquisa foi realizada em duas etapas assim definidas: simulado e prova subjetiva. Para o simulado foram escolhidas dez questÃes das provas do ENEM entre 1998,ano de implantaÃÃo do exame, e 2007, que abordavam o conteÃdo de LÃngua Portuguesa e apresentavam como situaÃÃes-problema textos de gÃneros variados. A finalidade do simulado foi selecionar questÃes de nÃveis de dificuldade variados. Os resultados obtidos no simulado possibilitaram a elaboraÃÃo da prova subjetiva composta por quatro questÃes, assim discriminadas: 1 (uma) questÃo com o maior percentual de acertos no simulado, 1 (uma)questÃo com o menor percentual de acerto no Simulado e 2 (duas) questÃes com percentual de acerto mÃdio. Na prova subjetiva elaboramos perguntas com a finalidade de identificarmos a correlaÃÃo entre a compreensÃo leitora das situaÃÃes problemas e a resoluÃÃo das questÃes de LÃngua Portuguesa no ENEM, a partir da produÃÃo de inferÃncias e da identificaÃÃo do propÃsito dos enunciados das questÃes de LÃngua Portuguesa do ENEM. A anÃlise dos resultados obtidos na prova subjetiva evidenciou que nem sempre a compreensÃo da situaÃÃoproblema â o texto â que se apresenta na questÃo assegurou a identificaÃÃo do que està sendo inquirido no enunciado, apesar de os alunos terem produzido inferÃncias necessÃrias à compreensÃo leitora. TambÃm foi constatado que, por vezes, os alunos nÃo conseguiram estabelecer uma relaÃÃo lÃgica de sentido entre o texto (situaÃÃo-problema), o enunciado e as opÃÃes. A este fato, destacamos a maneira como a questÃo à apresentada e o enfoque que se faz do texto (situaÃÃo-problema) para a relaÃÃo de coerÃncia com o enunciado, o tipo de abordagem e as opÃÃes de resposta, ou seja, a prÃpria estrutura da questÃo.
The main purpose of this study was to evaluate the comprehension of texts which contextualize questions on the âNational High School Examâ (Exame Nacional do Ensino MÃdio â ENEM). The answers to the questions in this exam are, therefore, highly dependent on studentsâ reading skills. The study is theoretically grounded on the works of: de Alliende e Condemarin (2005), Brown (1980), Haberlandt (1988), Kintsch (1994), Van Dijk e Kintsch (1978), Rumelhart (1985), Silva (2005), Singer (1988), Smith (1989, 1999), Solà (1998), Spiro (1980), Van Dijk (1996), Kato (2004), Koch (2006a, 2006b) e Marcuschi (2008). The research was conducted in two parts: Practice Test and Open-Ended Questions. Ten multiplechoice questions from previous tests of the National Exam (from 1998 to 2005) were chosen for the Practice Test. The choice of the questions was based on two criteria: questions which dealt with Portuguese content and which used texts of different genres for contextualization. The goal of the Practice Test was to select questions of different difficulty levels to use for the Open-ended Questions. Based on the results of the Practice Test four questions were chosen for the Open-ended Questions: 01 (one) question with the highest scores in the Practice Test, 01 (one) question with the lowest scores, and 02 (two) questions with medium percentage of scores. The Open-ended questions were elaborated so as to allow for the identification of the correlation between the Reading comprehension; Inferences; Contextualized questions; National High School Exam (ENEM).based on the inferences made and on the identification of the purpose of the questions. The analysis of the results obtained for the Open-ended Questions demonstrated that the comprehension of the contextualizing texts is not always enough to guarantee the understanding of what is being asked in the question or the answering of the question, even when students make appropriate inferences and are able to establish logical relationships between the texts and the questions. Other factors such as the form and structure of questions and the degree of coherence among the text, the instructions to the question and the question itself also affect question responses.

The objective is to investigate the concepts of language, text, writing and subject which have been underlying the writing exams used in the entrance examinations (" vestibular ) for Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo UFES. In order to do so, the research pursues the answers to the following questions: a) Which concepts of language, text, writing and subject which have been underlying the writing exams for the entrance examinations for UFES? b) Do the concepts which have been underlying the writing exams for the entrance examinations for UFES dialog with the theoretical tendencies which pervade the production of knowledge in the linguistics and education fields and that have been present in the official syllabi for mother tongue teaching for Elementary and High schools? c) Do the assessment criteria used by the board of correctors reflect such tendencies? Theoretically, this investigation anchors itself, mostly, to the contributions of Bakhtin (2003, 2006) and other authors such as Marcuschi (2007, 2008), Geraldi (1996, 1997, 2003, 2006), Travaglia (1991,1996), Koch (2003) e Koch e Elias (2006), which approach different dimensions of language, writing, subject and text. The methodology employed is the documental analysis, using as a corpus the exams for the entrance examinations for UFES in the period between 2000 and 2010. The exam analyses reveal that the views on the writing exam, concerning the studied period, have shown changes which cover a moment in which the exam privileged eminently school writing practices, supported by a conception of language as a representation of thought, and writing as a way of expressing thought, to another moment in which there was an approaching between the textual genres and the social practices of the subject, in an exam model based upon the use of language in interactional conditions. The criteria present in the correction grid of the writing exams for UFES also express the language conceptions adopted along those periods, fact which corroborates the results accomplished through the analyses of the exams proposed by the university
O objetivo é investigar as concepções de linguagem, de texto, de escrita e de sujeito que vêm fundamentando as provas de redação aplicadas nos vestibulares da Universidade Federal do Espírito Santo UFES. Para isso, a pesquisa se encaminha em busca de respostas às seguintes questões: a) Quais concepções de linguagem, de texto, de escrita, de sujeito têm fundamentado a prova de redação de vestibular da UFES? b) As concepções que vêm fundamentando a prova de redação de vestibular da UFES dialogam com as tendências teóricas que perpassam a produção de conhecimento no campo da linguística e da educação e que se presentificam nas orientações curriculares oficiais para o ensino da língua materna no Ensino Fundamental e no Ensino Médio? c) Os critérios de avaliação utilizados pela banca corretora refletem essas tendências? Teoricamente, esta investigação se ancora, sobretudo, nas contribuições de Bakhtin (2003, 2006) e de autores como Marcuschi (2007, 2008), Geraldi (1996, 1997, 2003, 2006), Travaglia (1991,1996), Koch (2003) e Koch e Elias (2006), que abordam diferentes dimensões de linguagem, de escrita, de sujeito e de texto. A metodologia utilizada é a análise documental, tendo como corpus as provas de redação do Vestibular da UFES entre os anos de 2000 e 2010. As análises das provas revelam que a forma de pensar a avaliação da escrita, presente no período pesquisado, apresentou mudanças que vão de um momento em essa avaliação privilegiava práticas de escrita eminentemente escolares, fundamentada numa concepção de linguagem como representação do pensamento e de escrita como maneira de expressar o pensamento, a um momento em que houve um estreitamento entre o uso dos gêneros textuais e as práticas sociais dos sujeitos, num modelo de prova fundamentado no uso da linguagem em condição de interação. Os critérios presentes nas grades de correção das provas de redação do VEST-UFES também expressam as concepções de linguagem adotadas nos referidos anos, o que corrobora os resultados alcançados nas análises das provas propostas pela Universidade

Abstract:
This dissertation describes the results of a research that sought to investigate the contributions of the use of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT), in particular GeoGebra software, in the process of acquisition of meanings in the Ausubelian perspective, in the resolution of Mathematics questions of the National High School Examination (ENEM) adapted. The survey was applied in the second half of 2016, together with the participants of two minicourses in the area of Mathematics Education at the Federal University of Santa Maria. The use of Meaningful Learning Theory (MLT) is justified by providing the subjects of the research, the possibility of re/construction of meanings mathematical knowledge. The theoretical reference was based on researchers in the area of Education and Mathematics Education who advocate the use of MLT and ICT In the classroom as an empowering tool for the promotion of Meaningful Learning. The research was developed in a qualitative approach and the instruments used were questionnaires, participants records referring to the resolutions of the problem situations and the observations of the researcher. The analysis of the data suggests that the use of MLT allied to the use of GeoGebra can contribute in a potentially meaningful way in the learning of the mathematical contents associated with the adapted ENEM questions.

A pesquisa foi aplicada no segundo semestre do ano de 2016, junto aos participantes de dois minicursos na área de Educação Matemática na Universidade Federal de Santa Maria. A utilização da Teoria da Aprendizagem Significativa (TAS) se justifica por proporcionar aos sujeitos da pesquisa, a possibilidade de re/construção de conhecimentos matemáticos significativos. O referencial teórico baseou-se em pesquisadores da área de Educação e Educação Matemática que defendem a utilização da TAS e das TIC em sala de aula como instrumento potencializador para a promoção da Aprendizagem Significativa. A pesquisa foi desenvolvida numa abordagem qualitativa e os instrumentos utilizados foram questionários, registros dos participantes referentes às resoluções das situações-problema e observações da pesquisadora. A análise dos dados sugere que a utilização da TAS aliada ao uso do GeoGebra pode contribuir de maneira potencialmente significativa na aprendizagem dos conteúdos matemáticos associados às questões do ENEM adaptadas.

The aim of this research is to analyze, based on speeches genres if Enem tests from 2009, when the current format was introduced by 2015 – favors the knowledge complexity, verifying if the contextualization and interdisciplinarity are made present and contribute to minimize the fragmentation of knowledge. The corpus consists of all issues from the Human Sciences areas and its technologies and the purpose to verify the contextualization and interdisciplinarity on the basis of four categories created through the theory of speeches genres from the Mikhael Bakhtin (2011) a Russian thinker. These categories allow generation of data through the content analysis procedure, which are examined and interpreted qualitatively. Some quantitatively data obtained by observation of genres present in the basic tests of the issues is which drove part of the qualitative analysis. Besides the documentary research, which allows the transit by documents as LDB Nº. 9.394 / 1996 DCNEM (BRAZIL, 1998; 2012), PCNEM (BRAZIL, 2000), OCEM (BRAZIL, 2006), there is a bibliographic research in order to defend the conception of education and knowledge which permeates the study. Therefore, the ideas of the French philosopher Edgar Morin (2002, 2004, 2005, 2007a, 2007b, 2012) about the thinking, complexity and relevant knowledge - which lead to the understanding that there is a multidimensionality in human being and in the knowledge which should be extend to the educational universe and be visible on it – they are the theoretical basis. The survey results reveal that the Enem tests prioritize the contextualization, using the process of hybridization, mainly genres linked to their own area of the matter, although others appear in many different spheres of human being activity. They also reveal a rare and superficial interdisciplinarity, indicating a possible difficulty in linking knowledge. These results point to the fact that the fragmentation of knowledge is present in Enem, but that prioritizes a knowledge with more meaning through contextualization, since it stimulates the general intelligence by linking the information and insert them into context.
O objetivo desta pesquisa consiste em analisar, com base nos gêneros do discurso, se as provas do Enem – de 2009, quando o atual formato foi implantado, até 2015 –, privilegiam a complexificação do conhecimento, verificando se a contextualização e a interdisciplinaridade se fazem presentes e contribuem para minimizar a fragmentação dos saberes. Para isso, o corpus é constituído de todas as questões da área de Ciências Humanas e suas Tecnologias. Com esses objetos de análise, o intuito é verificar a contextualização e a interdisciplinaridade com base em quatro categorias criadas mediante a teoria dos gêneros do discurso do pensador russo Mikhail Bakhtin (2011). Essas categorias permitem uma geração de dados, por meio do procedimento de análise de conteúdo, que são examinados e interpretados qualitativamente. Alguns dados quantitativos obtidos pela observação dos gêneros presentes nos textos-base das questões é que impulsionaram parte da análise qualitativa. Além da pesquisa documental, que permite o trânsito por documentos como LDB nº 9.394/1996, DCNEM (BRASIL, 1998; 2012), PCNEM (BRASIL, 2000), OCEM (BRASIL, 2006), ocorre uma pesquisa bibliográfica a fim de que se possa defender a concepção de Educação e conhecimento que permeia o estudo. Para tanto, as ideias do filósofo francês Edgar Morin (2002, 2004, 2005, 2007a, 2007b, 2012) sobre pensamento complexo, complexidade e conhecimento pertinente – as quais levam ao entendimento de que existe uma multidimensionalidade no ser humano e no conhecimento que deve se estender ao universo educacional e ser visível nele – são o aporte teórico. Os resultados da pesquisa revelam que as provas do Enem priorizam a contextualização, apropriando-se, em um processo de hibridização, principalmente, de gêneros ligados à própria área da questão, ainda que apareçam outros das mais variadas esferas da atividade humana. Revelam também uma rara e superficial interdisciplinaridade, sinalizando para uma possível dificuldade em ligar os saberes. Esses resultados apontam para o fato de que a fragmentação do conhecimento se faz presente no Enem, mas que se prioriza um conhecimento com mais sentido mediante a contextualização, uma vez que esta estimula a inteligência geral por relacionar as informações e inseri-las em seu contexto.

O presente trabalho tem como tema a avaliação em larga escala, em especial o Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio, e os elementos da gestão educacional que interferem nos resultados das avaliações externas. A proposta é desenvolvida a partir da análise dos resultados do exame entre os anos de 2012 e 2014 nos Colégios da Rede Marista. O objetivo central é compreender, a partir da percepção dos gestores, a natureza da avaliação e os elementos que influenciam para que os resultados de duas escolas da Rede Marista sejam tão distintos no ENEM neste período, mesmo que estas atendam famílias com perfis socioculturais semelhantes. A pesquisa realizada é de caráter qualitativo e utiliza como metodologia o estudo de caso. Como estratégias de pesquisa, utiliza análise documental de publicações da Rede Marista, análise estatística de microdados do ENEM do Banco de Dados da Rede, obtido junto ao INEP, bem como análise de conteúdo de questionários aplicados aos gestores do Conselho Técnico Administrativo Pedagógico (CTAP) de duas unidades educacionais. Como referencial teórico, foram utilizadas as produções de Freitas (2014), Hoffman (2008), Libâneo (2008), Luckesi (2008), Luckesi (2011), Vasconcellos (1998), Perrenoud (1999), Werle (2010) e Werle (2012) sobre avaliação educacional e avaliação em larga escala. Foi possível concluir que existe um distanciamento entre a proposta dos documentos maristas, a concepção de avaliação dos gestores e a prática avaliativa dos colégios. Compreende-se, a partir das pesquisas desenvolvidas, que são necessárias ações de formação dos profissionais acerca do ENEM, além de um posicionamento mais claro de Rede, com estabelecimento de metas e objetivos para cada colégio. O trabalho demonstra que os elementos da gestão que impactam nos resultados, na percepção dos gestores, são a formação contínua adequada, acompanhamento, empoderamento e inovação. Esses elementos auxiliam na qualificação dos processos e consequentemente, melhoria de resultados.
This study has as subject the large-scale evaluation, particularly the High School National Exam (HSNE), and the elements of educational management that affect the results of external evaluations. The proposal is developed based on the analysis of the test results between the years 2012 and 2014 in Marista Schools Network. The main objective is to understand, from the perception of managers, the nature of the evaluation and which elements influence so diverse results of two Marista Schools Network in HSNE, even considering the schools with similar socio-cultural profiles families. The research is qualitative and uses case study methodology. As research strategies uses documental analysis of Marista Network publications, statistical analysis of HSNE microdata from Marista Network Database obtained from INEP, as well as content analysis and questionnaires applied to managers of the Administrative Technician Education Council (ATEC) in two educational units. It was used as theoretical reference about educational assessment and large-scale evaluation the productions of Freitas (2014), Hoffman (2008), Libâneo (2008), Luckesi (2008), Luckesi (2011), Vasconcellos (1998), Perrenoud (1999), Werle (2010) and Werle (2012). It was possible to conclude that there is a gap between Marista documents proposals, the manager’s conception of evaluation and the schools effective practice. It is understood, from the research developed, that actions of professionals training about the HSNE are needed, and a clearer positioning from Marista network with the establishment of goals and objectives for each school. The dissertation demonstrates that the management elements that influence the results, on the managers' perception, are adequate continuous training, monitoring, empowerment and innovation. These elements help in the qualification of the processes and consequently, improvement of results.

Resumo: Esta tese, inserida na área da Linguística Aplicada, em especial, em Linguagens e Educação Linguística, procura discutir historicamente o ser ou não ser gêneros literários e poéticos como gêneros discursivos/textuais, traçando uma discussão teórica com Bakhtin (1990, 2003), Bosi (2000), Combe (1992), Eagleton (1997, 2012), Genette et al (1986), Macé (2004), Marchuschi (2008), Nancy (2004), Schaeffer (1989), Siscar (2010), Soares (2001) e Tezza (2006). Em seguida, a pesquisa assume a perspectiva de uma LA transdisciplinar de acordo com Cavalcanti (1998), Celani (1998), Fabrício (2006), Kleiman (1998), Rajagopalan (2006), Rojo (2006) e Signorini (1998), bem como indisciplinar (Moita Lopes, 1998, 2006) e transgressiva (Pennycook, 2006), com o objetivo de buscar raízes e vínculos transversais com a França, heranças e influências da pedagogia francesa na formação do nosso ensino secundário, sobretudo no século XIX, quando o Colégio Pedro II, a escola modelo, era referência nacional e importava seu currículo dos lycées franceses (Razzini, 2000). Além do Colégio Imperial, fazem parte desse legado também as Congregações Maristas, os Liceus e a Escola Normal. A partir de então, a tese investiga o ensino de Literatura na contemporaneidade, destacando a presença dos gêneros poéticos em currículos e avaliações oficiais estabelecidos pelo Ministério da Educação do Brasil. Nessa etapa da pesquisa, reivindicamos o lugar dos gêneros literários e poéticos nos documentos oficiais que regem o ensino médio nacional. Contrastamos também as avaliações do Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio (ENEM) e do Baccalauréat (bac) francês, sempre atentando para o tipo de formação (competências e habilidades de Linguagens, Códigos e suas Tecnologias) que se almeja dos alunos nessa faixa de escolaridade. Como etapa final, a pesquisa de campo, em consonância com a metodologia de geração de registros e análise crítica dos dados (Moita Lopes, 1994), uma pesquisa qualitativa, subjetivista e interpretativista, de cunho etnográfico (Kleiman, 1998), a partir da observação de um total de 90 horas de aulas de Língua Materna, no Brasil e na França, fazendo-se uso da triangulação: i) o diário de classe e o journal de bord; ii) o questionário dos professores; iii) as avaliações orais e escritas. Na análise do corpus selecionado, atentou-se para currículos e avaliações do Ensino Médio em contraste no Brasil e na França, isto é, observou-se como o ENEM e o bac são trabalhados com os alunos cá e lá; como se realiza o ensino/aprendizagem ¿ seja através da leitura em voz alta ou da escrita ¿ dos gêneros poéticos em sala de aula. Constatou-se que, por detrás dos muros dos lycées franceses e das escolas brasileiras, há muito mais semelhanças nas práticas pedagógicas que diferenças. Tanto cá quanto lá, os alunos procuram burlar os formalismos poético e institucional ao se interessarem pela pessoa do poeta, ao soltarem a voz no rap de protesto, ao interpretarem Rimbaud à sua maneira, ao escreverem poesias com palavras vulgares, ao se deixarem tocar pelo discurso poético: ao (se) ler, (se) dizer, (se) escrever, o aluno-leitor de poesias se coloca no mundo
Abstract: Situated in the field of Applied Linguistics, particularly in the area of concentration Languages and Linguistic Education, this thesis aims at discussing, with regard to history and the shadowing of the Shakespearean wandering "to be or not to be", whether literary and poetic genres are or are not discursive/textual genres. In order to do so, a theoretical discussion will be drawn regarding Bakhtin (1990, 2003), Bosi (2000), Combe (1992), Eagleton (1997, 2012), Genette et al (1986), Macé (2004), Marchuschi (2008), Nancy (2004), Schaeffer (1989), Siscar (2010), Smith (2001), and Tezza (2006). Assuming the perspective of an Applied Linguistics that is transdisciplinary (Cavalcanti,1998; Celani, 1998; Fabrizio, 2006; Kleiman, 1998; Rajagopalan, 2006; Rojo, 2006; Signorini, 1998), indisciplinary (Moita Lopes, 1998, 2006), and transgressive (Pennycook, 2006), the research will seek roots in and cross bonds with France by investigating the influences and heritages of French pedagogy in Brazilian secondary education, especially in the nineteenth century, when the model school Colégio Pedro II was a national reference and imported its curricula from French lycées (Razzini, 2000). Besides the Colégio Imperial, the Congregações Maristas, the Liceus and the Escola Normal also belong to such legacy. Considering it, the thesis investigates Literature teaching in contemporaneity, seeking both to highlight the presence of poetic genres in curricula and official assessments established by the Ministry of Education of Brazil, and to question and claim the place of literary and poetic genres in official documents that rule the national high school. Also, it contrasts the assessments of Brazil¿s National High School Exam (ENEM) and France¿s Baccalauréat (bac), always attentive to the type of training (skills and abilities of Languages, Codes and its Technologies) that students are expected to have in this level of schooling. As a final step, and aligned with a methodology of generating records and critical data analysis (Moita Lopes, 1994), a qualitative, subjectivist and interpretivist ethnographic-orientated field research (Kleiman, 1998) is conducted. The observation of a total of 90 hours of lessons of Mother Tongue, both in Brazil and in France, was carried out using the triangulation technique: i) class record book and journal de bord; ii) teachers¿ questionnaire; iii) oral and written assessments. The analysis of selected corpora took into consideration the curricula and assessments of high school comparing Brazil and France, that is, how the contents of ENEM and bac are worked with students of both countries; how poetic genres¿ teaching/learning process is performed in the classroom - whether through reading aloud or writing. Study results show that, behind the walls of French lycées and Brazilian schools, there are far more similarities than differences in regarding the teaching practices. In both nations, students try to detour themselves from poetic and institutional formalities becoming interested in the poet¿s selfhood, expressing themselves in protest rap, interpreting Rimbaud in their own way, writing poetry with vulgar words, letting themselves be touched by poetic discourse: by reading (themselves), saying (themselves) and writing (themselves), student-readers of poetry place themselves in the world

Este trabalho é o resultado da pesquisa sobre a possível contribuição do cotidiano em questões de função do Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio. Nesta dissertação as reflexões foram direcionadas para o Ensino Básico, mais precisamente para o Ensino Médio, e a proposta é investigar se as questões de matemática contextualizadas com situações do cotidiano e/ou de outras áreas do conhecimento (questões de contexto cotidiano ou interdisciplinar) podem ser mais eficazes atingindo positivamente uma parcela maior de alunos com relação à aprendizagem dessa disciplina, além de avaliar se eles desenvolveriam mais ou alguma sensibilidade numérica. Buscando responder essas perguntas, as que nortearam nosso trabalho, pautamos a presente dissertação pela metodologia Engenharia Didática, com a qual confrontamos a resolução, por parte dos alunos da terceira série do Ensino Médio de uma escola particular de Viçosa-MG, de dois tipos de questões; o primeiro, retirado do antigo vestibular da Universidade Federal de Juiz de Fora, classificado como questões de contexto matemático; e o segundo tipo, questões por nós adaptadas em um formato classificado como atividades de contexto cotidiano ou interdisciplinar. As duas resoluções foram norteadas segundo a Teoria Antropológica do Didático, de Yves Chevallard, a sensibilidade numérica (numeracy), de Ubiratan D’Ambrósio e a Matriz de Referência do ENEM. Estas questões aplicadas compõem o produto desta dissertação, com a qual esperamos acrescentar ao que tem sido produzido no país sobre o tema e, principalmente, aguçar novas pesquisas, a partir dos resultados que aqui obtemos.
This work is the result of research on the possible contribution of the everyday issues in the function of the National High School Exam. In this dissertation reflections were targeted for schools, specifically for middle school and the proposal is to investigate whether the math questions contextualized with everyday situations and / or other areas of knowledge (everyday issues or interdisciplinary context) may be more effective positively reaching a larger share of students toward learning this discipline, and to evaluate if they would develop more or some numerical sensitivity. Seeking to answer these questions, which have guided our work, we base this thesis by the Engineering Teaching methodology with which we confront the resolution, by students of the third grade of high school to a private school in Viçosa - MG , two types of issues; the first, removed the old bone of Federal University of Juiz de Fora, classified as questions of mathematical context; and the second type, tailored questions for us, in a format classified as interdisciplinary context or everyday activities . The two resolutions were guided according to the Anthropological Theory of Didactics, Yves Chevallard, the numerical sensitivity (numeracy) of D'Ambrosio and Matrix Reference ENEM. These issues comprise the applied product of this dissertation, with which we hope to add to what has been produced in the country on the topic and especially whet new research, from the results we get here.

This work is the result of a research about the influence of the ENEM (High School National Exam) from 1998 to 2002 in the Mathematic didactic book for high school level and, simultaneously, in the Mathematic discipline in Brazil. Starting from a global context the guidelines of the new directions of the Brazilian high school education are presented. Several ideas of competence notion have been discussed and the ENEM has been presented with its theoretical basis and guidelines, pointing out the skills and competence evaluated by the ENEM, with the objective to establish a counterpoint to the official documents, some criticism to the ENEM exam has been presented from specialists in education, Mathematics and cognitive psychology. To investigate the possible changes in the Mathematic discipline, two didactic books prior to 1998 and two after 2002 were analyzed under the prospective of competence and skills from the ENEM. This analysis showed that the didactic book registered the beginning of a transformation movement in the Mathematic discipline, motivated, as everything indicates, by the new guidelines proposed at the National Curriculum Standards for High School (PCNEM), which were based on the results at the International Meeting of Education for the XXI century of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). The ENEM, as the first official document to make these proposals concrete as exercises, seems to become a reference
Este trabalho é o resultado de uma pesquisa acerca da influência do Exame Nacional do Ensino Médio (ENEM), de 1998 a 2002, no livro didático de Matemática do Ensino Médio e, simultaneamente, na disciplina Matemática no Brasil. Partindo do contexto mundial, apresentamos os eixos norteadores das novas diretrizes do Ensino Médio brasileiro. Discutimos várias concepções da noção de competência e apresentamos o ENEM com seus fundamentos teóricos e diretrizes, listando as competências e habilidades avaliadas por ele. Com o objetivo de estabelecer um contraponto aos documentos oficiais, apresentamos algumas críticas ao Exame, por parte de especialistas em Educação, em Matemática e em Psicologia Cognitiva. Para a investigação de possíveis transformações na disciplina Matemática, analisamos, sob a ótica da matriz de competências e habilidades do ENEM, dois livros didáticos anteriores a 1998 e dois posteriores a 2002. Esta análise mostrou que o livro didático registra o início de um movimento de transformações na disciplina Matemática, motivado, ao que tudo indica, pelas novas diretrizes propostas nos Parâmetros Curriculares Nacionais do Ensino Médio (PCNEM), que, por sua vez, foram inspiradas nos resultados da Reunião Internacional sobre Educação para o século XXI da United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). O ENEM, como o primeiro documento oficial a concretizar essas propostas em forma de exercícios, parece tornar-se uma referência

Abstract The purpose of this study is to compile the “Creativity Exam for Junior High School Art Class Admission”, and conduct statistical and content analyses on the data results. The conclusions are as follows: 1. Compilation process: The content of the exams are based on literature review and actual requirements. The items, forms of items, weights, procedures, time distribution, and number of items could be considered properly through teacher interview. 2. Reliability and validity test: The internal consistency reliability of this exam, α, is 0.7233 after the adjustment, indicating the reliability. The validity test is done by expert validity test, and using factory analysis and internal consistency analysis to construct the validity. The results support the fundamental hypothesis of the factory analysis, and the correlation among the factors exhibits good validity. 3. Exam results analysis: Of the maximum scores, the spontonsive flexibility is distinguishing, and can meet the demand of the exam items. The relationship between the exam results and variables, based on the gender-based score distribution, shows that male students perform better in originality, problem solving ability, and language ability (5) than female students do. The correlation analysis on the academic scores shows that motive force is correlated with sketch and color painting, and originality is correlated with sketch performance. The school distribution-based scores show that H-1 elementary school students showed better performance than students of other schools do. Therefore, originality is not positively correlated with good drawing ability. 4. Content analysis on the spontonsive flexibility, originality: For the figure categorization test for spontonsive flexibility, 17.5% students showed uniqueness, with high ratio on exhibiting the unique thoughts of children, as well as diversity, which exhibit their unique creativity and flexible thoughts. The figure categorization test for originality, 11.25% students showed no originality to change the shoes, and their responses are easily influenced by the social trend and media. Lastly, based on the research findings, this study proposed suggestions on the practical experience on creativity exam for art class admission, and related researches.

The cooperative education project carried out for a long time, the main purpose was to provide the students who has financial problem would coutinue the studying during the semester. According to the economic development and the free tuition subsidy for the study in senior high school, less students chose the project to continue their study. In addition " The Act of the Cooperative Education Implementation in Senior High Schools and the Protection of Student Participants’ Right " which carried out on January 1, 2013 protected the rights of cooperative education students more. On the contrary, the companies reduced the chances to cooperate in order to aviod facing the law problems. In recent years, more and more students left the cooperative education programs because it's hard for them to manage their work and daily life well at the same time. As a result, the cooperation organizations turned to cooperate with the unerversity school to look for more stable human resource. In order to decrease the influence for the cooperative education students who quit the project and found out the real situation of the working place, the study used a questionnaire to the people who handled the project at the high schools. By the study of literature review, it analysised the influences for cooperative education students who left the factory. By Analytic Network Process (ANP), it got the relative weight and clarified the reason of resigning the factory tendency. Moreover, it could also subsequently provide the school, the cooperative mechanism and the family as the reference's basis. And it would understand the factors why students may not adapt to the woking places in order to minify the students’ leaving probability from the factory. The result of the research indicated that the relative weight of personal factor weighs the proportion was the highest. And it evaluated the index sign as the consideration standard. The most important index signs were the peers influence, work pressure, work allotment, workload and work content. According to the reaction of students after work practicing, the practice satisfaction was the most important one. In the process of working practice, if students could feel satisfied with a working environment and working factors, they would not feel disgusted about the work arrangements, and they would not quit the job because of external factors . So as to reduce the leaving ratio from the factory, it was necessary to build the internship satisfaction from students when they were working in the cooperation organizations. And it was important to know how to get the high satisfaction of cooperative education students.

The stress of the entrance exam leads to the bias of educational development. The class adopts ability-grouped to increase the admitted proportion causes not only the students feel suffering in high-leveled class from serious pressure but the others in low-leveled class are labeled and give up themselves leading to drop-out and leaving campus. Besides, even the school bully can be resulted from the stress of the admitted pressure. Most researches adopt the static approach to discuss the about-mentioned issue, but such a topic should be considered the dynamic perspective. Therefore, this study adopts the system dynamic approach to conducted the investigation and vensim software is applied to construct the system dynamic model.     This study results reveal when the admitted stress is lower than the loading threshold, the learning efficiency of the student has a positive relation to the admitted stress. However, when stress is over the loading threshold, the learning efficiency of the student has negative relation to the stress. For this viewpoint, this study adopts different parental expectation and raising the performance of the students’ schoolwork in order to maintain the admitted stress in its best value, and thus to obtain the optimal learning efficiency. Therefore, this study simulates the admitted stress of junior high school students dynamically, and it tries to provide the valuable results for future researches between the investigations of entrance exam stress and learning efficiency for teachers and students.

Abstract The subjects of this study were of the researcher herself and 169 third-grade students of a private vocational high school in Keelung City. The main purposes were to review the assessments (pre-test and post-test) of unit "Applications of Trigonometric Functions and Vectors" drew up by the researcher and then to understand the quality of these two assessments and students’ learning performance. The researcher graduated from a general university and obtained a certificate for a mathematics teacher after completing the educational program of secondary school and one-year internship. She has been teaching for a decade in a private high school in Keelung. The research methods were to use item analysis, validity analysis, analysis, reliability analysis, and analyzing student's mathematical ability and errors in problem-solving. The main findings of this study are as follows. 1. The quality of the pre-test needs to be strengthened: (a) the difficulty and the discrimination of some items are not good; (b) there is no content validity. 2. The quality of the post-test is much better than the pre-test: (a) the difficulty and the discrimination of the items are good; (b) the post-test is of mathematical ability analysis and content validity. 3. Students should be strengthened to understand the properties of trigonometric functions and the inner product and the angle of vectors, and the mathematical ability to enhance the problem-solving. Based on the above research results, the specific suggestions of this study are as follows. 1. To enhance teacher's ability to prepare test questions, teachers need to fully understand the mathematics ability, determine the mathematics content to be measured according to the course objectives, and use the two-way specification table. 2. Design some open questions for assessments and analyze them with other appropriate analysis tools. The above research results can be used as a reflection for researcher and also provide reference for teachers to develop test questions and teaching in the future. Keywords: vocational high school, review exam, mathematics ability, two-way specification table, errors in problem-solving

Language learning motivation plays an important role in both research and teaching; however, it used to be regarded as a constant emotional or mental trait. In the more recent literature, learning motivation has been regarded as fluctuating during the learning process (e.g. Williams & Burden, 1997; D�宁nyei & Ott��, 1998; Ushioda, 1998). However, this argumentation has not been well attested in EFL contexts in Asia. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate whether and how English learning motivation changed during the process when the students were preparing for and taking the high-stakes college entrance examination. Participants of this study are 427 EFL senior high school students facing the college entrance examination. Two questionnaires were administered before and after the exam. Motivational variables including desire to learn, motivational intensity, persistence, and self-efficacy were examined. Test motivation (students’ attitude toward the exam) and their test results were also used to compare with their learning motivation. Statistical analyses such as t tests and correlations were employed to explore the relationship between the examination and students’ English learning motivation. The result indicated the following. First, our result showed that the more efforts the students made, the higher academic achievement the students got. Second, the result suggested that when the students regarded the examination as important, they showed more desire to learn the language, put more efforts on studying, and lasted longer, but they did not seem to feel confident. Besides, higher test motivation may not necessarily guarantee better test results. Third, in general, it was found that the students’ desire to learn English stayed relatively unchanged, put less effort and persisted shorter, but felt more confident in learning English after the exam. However, different groups of students showed different patterns of motivation according to their achievement, belonging to different academic tracks, gender and whether they took the second exam, the APE, or not. Among the three groups, Track 1 students showed the highest self-efficacy than Track 3 students and Track 2 students (Track 1 > Track 3 > Track 2). Besides, for the decrease of motivational intensity and persistence, Track 1 students was higher than Track 3 and Track 2 students (Track 1 > Track 3 > Track 2). Here, the pattern reported that for students’ English learning motivation, the rankings were Track 1 > Track 3 > Track 2 students. From the gender perspective, the result correspond what was in the literature that female students are more willing to put more efforts in language learning and were more motivated (D�宁nyei & Csizer, 2002). Finally, it was found that except for persistence, there was no significant difference on English learning motivation between students who chose not to take the second exam (APE) and those who were going to take the second examination. Results indicated that the students’ learning motivation may change and the high-stakes examination exerted influence on the students’ learning motivation. Based on the findings, it should be noticed that when teaching, teachers must be aware that students of different background may possess different level of desire to learn the language, different level of effort and persistence, and also different level of self-confidence in learning the language on different stages. Most important of all, English learning motivation is not a constant emotional or mental trait; it may change during the learning process.

The Ministry of Education implements the 12-year compulsory education law has already entered the second year, from the beginning of 80% exam-free admission and 20% special achievement-based admission, to now counties abandon special achievement-based admission and adapt to exam-free admission, nothing more than to get rid of the thoughts from students, teachers and parents of prestigious high school, but is it true? No matter the high school entrance examination from BCT to current education examination system, in the end still according to the level of score to compare who have the qualify to enter prestigious university. In my general thought, if the quality is higher of prestigious high school students, in future they certainly have more competitive strength to the exam, but if so, does the students with lower quality should give up on the dream of enter the prestigious university? The study is based on graduate companies, which organized national high school mock tests. A total of 94 schools participating in the test, and the study population are based on the results of the test score. Personally to interview school Mathematics teachers, and compare the usage of self-adapted teaching materials and printing materials, to analysis if there is significant relationship of the two results in student test scores, and further to analysis if there is an obvious relationship of self-adapted teaching materials between experienced teachers and junior teachers. As the teachers’ choice of reference materials, hope to enhance the motivation, interest and self-confidence of high school students in math learning.

In the recent years, following the gradual open-up of domestically educational policy and the apparent changes of academic environment, the volumes of college and university have been being sharply increasing; furthermore, due to the effects from the fact of low birth rate, it incurs the more drastic competitions between schools in regard of operation and development. Nevertheless, view the matter on the other aspect as educational market, such a phenomenon makes students a great more deal of diverse chances to select what school they really want to enter in. In this case, the factors that influence these students to choose and fill up applications are therefore worthy of exploration. As being the instance, the study puts stress on discuss the influences of interpersonal elements on senior high school student’s application of university entrance exam, based on the in-depth interview statistics over the 3rd grade students of a private senior high school in Taoyuan county in terms of relatively personal relationship. The study spreads a wide-and-deep range of research and investigation aimed at the point. In accordance to related documents, the study draws up two directions as “in-school” and “out-school” interpersonal factors, and then subdivide them into 8 aspects as 4 “in-school” factors : “administrative staff”, “teacher”, “graduated predecessor” and “classmate”; and the other 4 “out-school” factors: “parents”, “brother and sister”, “relatives” and “friends”. Under the ground of the foresaid 8 aspects, the study takes a profound interview over totally 16 groups of relative persons corresponding to the chosen student subjects in purpose of undertaking analysis and organization to the information collected. At the end, the conclusions are summarized below: 1. The highest and most positive influence on student’s decision of filling up application is parents; they also reveal the earliest, longest effects on the matter that they usually grant suggestions on the initiative with obviously extensive considerations. On the contrary, graduated predecessor, relatives and friends belong to passively give suggestions, the way their influences are with relatively lower positiveness. 2. In respect to the selection of school that interpersonal aspect emphasizes, it lists national university as the significant index for all; in addition, parents tend to put the development of future vocation as an important consideration while school administrative staff and teacher are inclined to have student scores shooting the supreme school as the target; and the other aspects appear with vast concentrations, however, in general, the selections considered in the article are likely the choices students encounter at the present stage that are presented as references for students. 3. The modes of influence that interpersonal aspects impact on students can be divided into 4 categories: platform, face-on-face communication, internet interflow and complex communication. These 4 categories are spread in the foresaid 8 aspects respectively, it is different depending on what kind of role the student plays when he/she is filling an application, and the distinct habits of interaction existing in varied age gaps. 4. When these interpersonal aspects are affecting student’s filling of application, they usually set student in predicaments as to the different self-definition. For example, in the positive aspect, it often unconsciously predominate the student in selection, but also it makes students anxious and leads them to a difficulty on thinking because of the concern of gain and loss, as well as responsibility. On the other hand, the straits occurring in the passive aspect comparatively give students wrong messages based on experiences but the fact of actual event.

This research aims to study of the items of the 2003 Taipei County junior high school art class entrance exam. A series of analyses were done on the test items, the testing data ,and the interview data from the teachers and the subject students. The purpose was to analyze those data, gather some relevant opinions and reactions to serve as the basis for future test-item design. Some important conclusions were reached as follows: I.Item design and the educational concepts of art: We took into account the testing purposes, the choosing of the test types, and the variety of the test items. However, the validity planning and the test-item screening were not consistent with the standardized testing procedures. This paper used the rational of aesthetic education and curriculum standard as bases. The purpose of the paper mainly focused on the aesthetic perception and the art knowledge, The proportion of art knowledge items was higher because of the evaluation of students’ ability in thinking/cognition, and the importance of cultural issues. II.The analysis of test items: On the whole, the difficulty of the test items were of medium-low and the item discrimination index is medium. Most of the test items were consistent with the standard of item analysis. The test items were co-designed with illustrations. All these were in line with the content of aesthetic education. This test had already included the comprehensive version of curriculum standards. It had good content validity; however, the content validity would have been even better if we could have focus on material and subject matter of aesthetic perception. As for the internal consistency reliability coefficient, it was not high. On the overall score distribution, the scores of scores of all students was slightly higher than the norm. III.Responses: Most of the interviewed teachers believed that aesthetic perception was the most suitable testing content while art knowledge was not so much recommended. Nine teachers were against using multiple true-false items while five teachers considered the number of testing items too few. Although the difficult testing items of this paper were only few; however, most of the more difficult testing items have made a great impact on both teachers and students’ feelings. Lastly, the researcher made some suggestions to some future testing applications of the appreciation and some relevant research.

President Ma Ying-jeou proclaimed the 12-year compulsory education plan on January 1st, 2011 (the 100th Year of Republic of China). From 2014 onward, both senior high and vocational schools will require no tuition, and most of them can be attended without the requirement of students passing an entrance exam. This policy marks a milestone in Taiwan’s high school admission system. In the future, students graduating from junior high schools may choose a school they favor, rather than having no choice but to attend the one according to their exam results, as was the practice in the past. Purposive sampling was adopted with the freshmen in eight public senior high schools in Kaohsiung as the subjects; two classes in each school were sampled with the questionnaire based on four dimensions: “background of the senior high schools”, “influencing factors occurring during the process of choosing a school”, “main information channels to better understand the senior high schools”, and “related consultations on how to choose a senior high school.” The aim was to compare the behaviors in choosing a senior high school among the students who do not follow the conventional school ranking as determined by the entrance exam and those who do, in order to explore the factors that affect the process of choosing a senior high school by those who do not follow the practice. The study results show that: 1. Both the students who follow the practice and those who do not, value the dimensions: “background of the senior high schools” the most, such as “ratio of students entering a university”, “school image (reputation)”, and “school ranking in accordance with the entrance exam result”, etc. 2. Those who do and do not follow the practice differ in choosing a school in terms of four aspects: “whether there is a classmate attending the same senior high school”, “whether background information on the senior high school is available”, “whether the senior high schools hold recruitment activities on the students’ campus”, and “whether related consultation data is issued by the junior high schools they are attending.” Through a logistic regression analysis, it was found that the three aspects “classmate”, “background information”, and “consultation data” are significantly predictive regarding the behavior of choosing a senior high school by both groups of students. According to the study results, suggestions are proposed regarding senior high and vocational schools’ planning of future marketing strategies and junior high schools’ provision of consultations about choosing a senior high school. In addition, suggestions are advanced to education administrative organizations for the implementation of the 12-year compulsory education. Finally, suggestions for follow-up studies are also listed.
