La gaozhong o scuola secondaria di secondo grado nel sistema scolastico della Repubblica Popolare Cinese
2020
L'articolo inquadra la scuola secondaria di secondo grado, gaozhong, nel sistema scolastico cinese. Il XX secolo in Cina si caratterizza per una successione di trasformazioni epocali che nel tempo hanno cambiato il volto del Paese. In particolare, dopo la conclusione del lungo e contraddittorio decennio della Rivoluzione culturale (1966-1976), che aveva determinato la chiusura delle scuole secondarie di ogni grado e delle università con la successiva dispersione degli studenti nelle aree rurali, è stato necessario ricostruire il sistema scolastico nella sua interezza. Infatti, le scuole non erano più praticabili, molti professori erano stati sottoposti a critica e gli studenti erano stati a…
CHANGING SCHOOL AFTER THE GLOBAL RECESSION : THE CASE OF LATVIA
2015
Latvia demonstrates common trends with the majority of the countries affected by the recession, as well as some peculiarities in overcoming the impact of the global economic and financial recession on education mainly due to an unbelievable austerity. Education in this country has suffered greatly, and its damage is adequate to the 67% of the budget cuts between 2008 and 2011 (IZM, 2011). The article deals with the school improvement after the recession, recent implementation of innovations to cover the damages and catch up with the ideas of the Next Generation learning, to supply schools with the appropriate curricula and meeting the learners needs for their individual development and abil…
The multiple roles of national exams in the certification, governing and support of learning and instruction in Norwegian secondary education.
2018
Hvilke roller har eksamen i norsk grunnopplaering? I Forskrift til opplaeringslova framgar det blant annet at eksamenskarakteren skal fastsette kompetansen til eleven ved slutten av opplaeringen i faget. Denne artikkelen viser imidlertid at policydokumenter og policyutviklere har en rekke forventninger til hva man skal oppna ved a ha eksamen og hva man skal kunne benytte eksamensresultater til. I et samspill mellom teori og empiri identifiser artikkelen tre roller for vurdering: a sertifisere, styre og stotte laering og undervisning. Dette begrepsapparatet brukes til a analysere bade eksamens formelt definerte formal, og tilsiktede og utilsiktede funksjoner ved eksamenssystemet. Artikkelen …
Modeling and Measuring Competencies in Higher Education
2020
Measuring competencies acquired in higher education has to be regarded as a widely neglected research field. The progress made in empirical research on the school system since the 1990s – for example, through large-scale assessments such as the Trends in International Mathematics and Science Study (TIMSS) and the Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) and through a massive expansion of instructional research in general – has revealed that nothing comparable exists at the higher education level.
Transition and Constitution in School/Work Relations
2012
In every industrial society, there must exist some kind of a transitional mechanism between the demand for and supply of a labour force, that is, a mechanism that facilitates the transition from school to work and from job to job both inside and outside the labour force. There are at least two main ways of organising such a school-labour network. The first way follows the pattern of a marketplace, that is, the labour market process is an extension of the existing market of commodities. In this pattern, the fundamental question in the marketplace relates to buying and selling and to pricing. The second way in which a school-labour network can be organised is based on the idea of a social gua…

Germany: A System Undergoing Change
2018
The German school system has been undergoing significant reforms as it works to challenge long-held beliefs about the country’s traditional tiered system of schooling. Once believed to be a symbol of national strength, the sifting and sorting of children into one of three tiers of school at the age of 10 is now believed by many to be a limiting factor in potential for student growth and development (OECD 2011). In response to what has often been described as the “PISA shock,” Germany has, since the initial Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) study (2000), seen a steady increase in PISA scores in literacy, mathematics and the sciences.
L’inclusione vista dagli alunni: costruzione e validazione del questionario per rilevare la qualità inclusiva della scuola
2018
Molti studi nazionali e internazionali si sono concentrati sulla valutazione e sulla promozione della qualità inclusiva della scuola. Si tratta di un argomento complesso, che ha stimolato un ampio dibattito e una varietà di contributi che mettono in luce la necessità di uno strumento in grado di misurare la qualità inclusiva delle nostre scuole, per determinare l’evidenza empirica riguardo a questo tema. L’articolo presenta i risultati di una sperimentazione finalizzata alla redazione di un questionario per la rilevazione della qualità inclusiva del sistema scolastico percepita dagli alunni. Il questionario si pone come uno strumento di valutazione e autovalutazione che permette la misurazi…
Transferir tecnologia para outros espaços escolares
2015
The technology transfer model offers us a perspective to analyze how schools receive incorporate technological activities and their equipment. Particularly, we analyze the innovations generated by these processes at the organizational level of schools as recipients of technology. The analyzed data belong to an investigation which is currently being performed in 12 regions on the “School 2.0 program”. At this stage we handle references of descriptive statistics and some of the interviews and classroom observations from the participating centers on the “smart school”. From the first analysis, it can be said that the school system follows a pattern transfer including: high dependence on the po…
Qualidade docente e eficácia escolar
2008
Este texto visa a explorar uma faceta do funcionamento do sistema escolar que permite associar a implementação de políticas públicas, no caso, a distribuição dos professores pelas escolas e salas de aula, e à avaliação dos impactos dessa distribuição do ponto de vista da busca por maior igualdade de oportunidades. Para discutir essa questão, usaremos os dados de pesquisa realizada no Brasil, na Argentina, no Chile e no México, com informações de 96 escolas e professores, assim como de 2048 alunos de 4ª série que estudavam em escolas situadas em bairros pobres de Belo Horizonte, Buenos Aires, Santiago e Guanajuato. Inicialmente, discutimos alguns dos elementos das políticas educacionais lati…
