Tesis sobre el tema "Play School (Television program)"

This research project attempted to determine whether play therapy used to treat elementary and junior high school children in a School-Based Counseling program is effective. There is conflicting evidence in the literature as to the effectiveness of therapy with children, especially play therapy. This project used a qualitative design to evaluate play therapy used in a School-Base Counseling program (SBC). Randomly selected case files from the 1998-99 academic year were analyzed using questions considering demographic information for each child, the reason the child was referred to the program, the intervention used by the therapist, and the outcomes of therapy. The results of this project are inconclusive, but support the need for more research to be conducted in the area of play therapy.

This study explores parents' views on the importance of free play when it pertains to what their children do after school. By studying this information, teachers, childcare providers, and administrators can use these perceptions in an attempt to discover why children are no longer engaging in unstructured play as frequently as they once were. Through the responses of 59 parents who participate in a large afterschool program, this study revealed that although 81% of parents ranked free play as valued in their own childhoods, free play ranked low in terms of parents' acknowledgement of play in after school programs of their own children. Future research might focus on how best to inform parents of the benefits of unstructured play and how to effectively incorporate unstructured or free play into the daily schedule of after school programs.

The purpose of this study was to add to the limited amount of information on the effectiveness of play therapy interventions in a school-based counseling program. The study focused on examining the reasons why clients were referred to counseling, the frequency and duration of their behavior, the clients' academic performance at the beginning and end of treatment, the total number of sessions received, and the type of play therapy that was used to determine how effective play therapy interventions were during treatment.

This descriptive study utilized semi-structured interviews and observations to examine the experiences of hospitalized school-age children, and explore the potential of a live, closed-circuit television program as a psychosocial intervention. Among findings, Phase I data from 16 subjects indicates a) concern with painful medical procedures, particularly intraveneous (IV) injections, b) a desire for more information, especially concerning medical equipment, c) a variety of responses to social issues among subjects, d) the importance of activities, and e) the central role of the hospital playroom. Phase II data indicates that live, closed-circuit television can provide ambulatory and room-bound children opportunities for making choices, social interaction, participation, and information on their environment. Conclusions and implications are included.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effectiveness of a play-based teacher consultation (PBTC) program on individual teachers’ interpersonal classroom behaviors and teacher-child relationships. The research questions addressed the application of child-centered play therapy principles and PBTC increasing teacher responsiveness, decreasing teacher criticism, and enhancing teachers‟ perceptions of the teacher-child relationship in elementary school classrooms. Single-case design was utilized to examine eight teachers‟ perceptions over 16 weeks. The sample included 8 White female teachers from three local elementary schools. Teacher ages ranged from 28 to 59 years old. There were 5 kindergarten, 1 first grade, and 2 second grade teachers. The teachers participated in one educational training session followed by play sessions with children of focus and interactive modeling sessions. Trained observers, blind to the study’s purpose, utilized the Interaction Analysis System in classroom observations of the teachers, three times per week, to examine teachers’ interpersonal skills. Additionally, the teachers completed the Student Teacher Relationship Scale for the children of focus before and after the play session phase to examine change in the teacher-child relationship. Visual analysis of the data indicated the PBTC’s overall positive impact. 5 out of 8 teachers demonstrated increases in teacher responding scores at mildly to very effective criteria levels. All 8 teachers demonstrated decreases teacher criticism at effective to very effective criteria levels. The teacher-child relationships indicated mixed results, with 5 out of 8 teachers indicating positive changes in teacher-child relationships. Discussion includes implications for future research regarding single-case design, measurement of teacher change, and modifications of the PBTC model.

The research investigates the portrayals of the Bahian and of Bahia on television in the context of television fiction, from local marks of the oral culture and the thematic approaches. The corpus is the TV series called "Ó Pai Ó" aired by the Globo network during two seasons, in 2008 and 2009. The analysis focuses on the whole series, but especially on the episodes called "White Market (Mercado Branco)", "Tacky (Brega)" and "Crooked Business (Negócio Torto) of the first season, and "I Want to see the Bahia Tremble (Quero ver a Bahia Tremer"), of the second season because they are considered emblematic of the issues studied. The research examines the script, the dramatic situations and the themes, linking them with the video performance - from the actors to the montage - besides the discourses construction of the press. The research problematic presented is how the representations of the Bahian and of Bahia are constructed, with the aim of identifying its semiotic and cultural mechanisms. It was concluded that the thematic approach is given in a complex way, using the portrayal types, environments and recurring situations from the imagery of Bahia for comic effect and the critical irony of stereotypes and political issues. Regarding a esthetics, there is a difficulty to transpose elements of the local culture to the audiovisual language, which was mainly analyzed from the point of view of the rhythm in Meschonnic. The analysis dialogues with researches of television play-writing, portrayal, history and culture of Bahia as well as orality. As a theoretical basis, we rely on semiotic studies related to culture and language, starting from concepts of Iuri Lotman, as a semiosphere - delimited space where the meanings happen as well as the orality concept in Paul Zumthor. It is taken into account the history of the texts and their relation to the theater and cinema, considering the object as the product of intersemiotic translation, concept worked by Julio Plaza. Likewise, it is an approach with authors of the Bahian anthropology, as Ubiratan Castro and Milton Moura, among others. The methodology used is an analytical study based on semiotics and on the other mentioned theories. It is a transdisciplinary perspective between language studies and communication studies
A pesquisa investiga as representações do baiano e da Bahia na televisão no contexto de teleficção, a partir das marcas locais da cultura oral e de abordagens temáticas. O corpus é a série de TV Ó Paí, Ó , exibida pela Rede Globo em duas temporadas, em 2008 e 2009. A análise centra-se em toda a série, mas especialmente nos episódios Mercado Branco , Brega e Negócio Torto , da primeira temporada, e Quero Ver a Bahia Tremer , da segunda temporada por serem considerados emblemáticos das questões centrais. A investigação examina o roteiro, as situações dramáticas e os temas, relacionando-os com a performance em vídeo - desde a dos atores até a de montagem - além da construção de discursos na imprensa. Apresentou-se como problema de pesquisa o modo como são construídas as representações do baiano e da Bahia, com o objetivo de identificar seus mecanismos semióticos e culturais. Concluiu-se que a abordagem temática se dá de modo complexo, usando a apresentação de tipos, ambientes e situações recorrentes do imaginário da Bahia para efeito de comicidade e ironia crítica de estereótipos e temas políticos. Em relação à estética, há um apuro no sentido de transpor elementos da cultura local para a linguagem audiovisual, o que foi analisado principalmente do ponto de vista do ritmo em Meschonnic. A análise dialoga com pesquisas de teledramaturgia, representação, história e cultura da Bahia e oralidade. Como base teórica, apoiamo-nos estudos semióticos ligados à cultura e à linguagem, partindo de conceitos de Iuri Lotman, como a semiosfera - espaço delimitado onde acontecem as significações - e também o conceito de oralidade em Paul Zumthor. É levado em conta o histórico dos textos e suas relações com o teatro e o cinema, considerando o objeto como produto de tradução intersemiótica, conceito trabalhado por Julio Plaza. Do mesmo modo, faz-se uma aproximação com autores da antropologia baiana, como Ubiratan Castro e Milton Moura, entre outros. A metodologia utilizada é de estudo analítico com base na semiótica e nas demais teorias citadas. Trata-se de uma perspectiva transdisciplinar entre os estudos da linguagem e da comunicação

While much has been written on the Australian film and television industry, little has been presented by actual producers, filmmakers and technicians of their time and experiences within that same industry. Similarly, with historical documentaries, it has been academics rather than filmmakers who have led the debate. This thesis addresses this shortcoming and bridges the gap between practitioner experience and intellectual discussion, synthesising the debate and providing an important contribution from a filmmaker-academic, in its own way unique and insightful. The thesis is presented in two voices. First, my voice, the voice of memoir and recollected experience of my screen adventures over 38 years within the Australian industry, mainly producing historical documentaries for the ABC and the SBS. This is represented in italics. The second half and the alternate chapters provide the industry framework in which I worked with particular emphasis on documentaries and how this evolved and developed over a 40-year period, from 1970 to 2010. Within these two voices are three layers against which this history is reviewed and presented. Forming the base of the pyramid is the broad Australian film industry made up of feature films, documentary, television drama, animation and other types and styles of production. Above this is the genre documentary within this broad industry, and making up the small top tip of the pyramid, the sub-genre of historical documentary. These form the vertical structure within which industry issues are discussed. Threading through it are the duel determinants of production: ‘the market’ and ‘funding’. Underpinning the industry is the involvement of government, both state and federal, forming the three dimensional matrix for the thesis. For over 100 years the Australian film industry has depended on government support through subsidy, funding mechanisms, development assistance, broadcast policy and legislative provisions. This thesis aims to weave together these industry layers, binding them with the determinants of the market and funding, and immersing them beneath layers of government legislation and policy to present a new view of the Australian film industry.

The study aimed to investigate The Effects of the Creative Financial Education Program on interpersonal relationship in Elementary School－Taking Play Teaching Method as an Example. It was a quasi-experimental design. The participants were 50 fifth-graders at an elementary school in Taipei City; they were divided into two groups: 25 students in the experimental group and 25 students in the control group. The 25 students in the control group received normal integrative activity instruction, whereas the 25 students in the experimental group received Financial Education Program for 8 weeks. Each week conducted two periods; each period covered 80 minutes. The assessment instrument was the Interpersonal Relationship Index subtest of Kids’LOHAS Survey of 5Q questionnaire. The pretest and posttest data of the subtest were analyzed by one-way ANCOVA and Johnson-Neyman technique. Besides, the follow-up assessment was conducted 4 weeks after the experiment and the collected data was analyzed by one-way ANCOVA in order to realize the delayed effects. According to the data analysis, the results of the study were as follows: 1. In terms of immediate effects on interpersonal relationship, the Creative Financial Education Program showed that the area of significant difference was the scores, either above 57.91 or below 44.73 gained in the pretest of Interpersonal Relationship Index subtest. Although this program didn’t show any improvement in interpersonal relationship when students got scores higher than 57.91 in the pretest, the students of the experimental group who gained scores below 44.73 in the pretest significantly improved the performance on interpersonal relationship. 2. The Creative Financial Education Program did not significantly have delayed effects on interpersonal relationship. Based on the results of the study, some suggestions were made for the directions of the future research.

Falls from playground equipment are a leading cause of injury for children, hence, there is a need for intervention programs to reduce the risky behaviours associated with falls. The Cool 2 Be Safe program was developed based on the results of several research studies that identified effective strategies for reducing risk behaviours on playgrounds among individually tested school-age children. The current study evaluated the effectiveness of delivering this program in a group format within Boys and Girls Clubs. Baseline data assessing children’s attitudes and injury beliefs was collected with a questionnaire. Children then participated in four structured activity sessions in small groups, designed to increase risk awareness and reduce the frequency of risky play in playground settings. Children were then re-administered the initial questionnaire. Comparing pre- and post- data revealed positive changes in risk attitudes. Implications of these findings for preventing playground injuries and directions for future research are discussed.

In 2008, following Commonwealth legislation creating the 485 Graduate Visa for migration purposes, the professional accrediting bodies in Accounting, IT and Engineering were mandated to develop Professional Year Programs (PYPs) intended to alleviate the gap between discipline specific qualifications and the skills required to meet employer demands. This research conducted a critical examination of one such program: SMIPA, the Skilled Migration Program for Accounting. This was a work readiness program for international accounting graduates who studied for their accounting degrees onshore within the Australian higher education ecosystem. The primary research question framing this research: Can SMIPA be regarded as a work-readiness program upon which to model future graduate training programs? Underpinned by Bourdieu’s institutionalised capital framework, a tripartite qualitative evaluation is undertaken through multiple lenses: 337 SMIPA graduate survey responses, semi-structured interviews with six SMIPA licenced partners and a sixty-minute interview with an early Joint Accounting Body initiator. The aim of the research is to determine the role SMIPA plays in providing graduates an opportunity to improve their generic skills, so as to find work within the Australian accounting environments. The intent is to analyse whether this program offers a blue print to model the implementation of future work readiness programs. Five recommendations for the future directions of the internship component of the SMIPA program are provided, along with recommendations for future research opportunities. It is concluded that with some significant modifications to defined measurements of the program’s intended learning outcomes, a transparent process for assessing the procurement and delivery of the internship component, as well as a far more rigorous quality assurance of the operations component that would curtail the more extreme migration and educational agent practices, SMIPA could be considered a suitable model to inform a national work integrated learning program providing a blueprint to better prepare both domestic and international tertiary educated graduates for entry into the 21st century global workforce.

This study is about the provision of a prototype court preparation programme for the primary school child that had been sexually assaulted. The programme is developed from a Gestalt approach. Literature regarding several existing court preparation programmes was studied and compared in order to identify certain themes for the child's preparation. Knowledge regarding the court, procedures and the functions of the various role players was conveyed to the child with emphasis on the child's role as witness. The research strategy utilised in the study was that of the intervention research and specifically the D&D-model that comprises six phases. The study incorporates the first three phases plus the first step of the fourth phase. Semi-structured interviews and focus groups were utilised to establish which themes could be addressed to support the child towards being a credible witness. These themes are summarised in the court preparation programme and are addressed from the Gestalt approach.

The Framework Education Programme for Preschool Education is a legislative curriculum document which establishes the basic requirements for the state preschool education. The educational objectives and requirements are binding for the teachers. However, the way in which those objectives and requirements are met, is fully in the hands of each nursery school. This diploma thesis illustrates one of the possible ways of educating preschool children, namely the dramatic education. The dramatic education is presented here not only as an educational method but also as a style of pedagogical work. This particular style respects individuality and originality of each child with the intention of developing his/her potentials and with the effort to equip the child with necessary social skills. The practical part of the diploma thesis offers insight into the authentic dramatic and educational process which explores topics of human life. During this process, each child goes through a full-fledged personal and social development by means of dramatic activities, which are based on topics of literary text

My thesis concentrates on the game, the playfulness and the toy. At first, I was searching for where these topics were most common and how they effected our lives generally. I presented some of the definitions. Then I worked more with these definitions and I put them into a connection with the art and the padegogy. Later I made a separated point of the role of the game, the playfulness and the toy in the visual art. I introduced some artist, who have been using the topics of mainly the game and the playfulness in their art work. The toy was presented more like the theme of the art works. The final part concentrates on the visual art project, which is prepared for children at age eight to ten years. One of the range was introduced deeply. n this range present individual lessons, one of them is showed in detail. This lesson is named The painting by the soap bubbles and I had been taught it at The basic art school Na Proseku. After this lesson I wrote reflection of it. Whole thesis is ilustrated by the pictures. In the conclusion I try to summarize knowledge I reached.
