Summary: This Doctoral Thesis is aimed at detecting problems and needs perceived by students and academics in evaluating students. In this direction, resolves know how we evaluate the students at the University of Santiago de Compostela from contrasting perceptions of students and teachers, and use this information as an indicator of the quality of university education, so identify the strengths and weaknesses of this process and see possible lines of improvement. To that end, we review current research on the quality of the University in order to contextualize the problem of assessing students in the institutional framework in which this process takes place, looking into what extent the characteristics of the university will conditional the way it conducts an assessment of their pupils. Once this context, we present a systematic analysis of the theory of assessing students under which we identify the model and assume that allows us to assess how we are doing in practice this process at the university. That is the goal of our more specific empirical research, which is part of the interpretive paradigm since basically we have given voice to participants in the process of evaluating students, seeking to illuminate the process and promote better understanding of it. Our object of study are therefore perceptions that students and academics have on the practice of evaluation in the University; perceptions to which we accessed through questionnaires and interviews and whose systematic description presented to instantly analyze how far there are differences in the perceptions of both groups considered, in addition, the area of knowledge in which they find themselves. So, and based on the similarities among the different groups set in the final chapter of this thesis what could be considered a profile of the evaluation of students at the University of Santiago de Compostela through 20 features. Profile that, in addition, we wanted to contrast it with that in our view the most positive alternative that should be directed towards assessing students so that, from knowledge of the reality with which we establish some of the possible lines action which, in our view, contribute to both the qualitative improvement in the evaluation of students in particular as the teaching-learning process in general.

Summary: Summary: our research work is to anchors within a line of vital importance in the field of teacher education: the knowledge acquired on teaching future teachers, as a result of their initial training. While there has nproducido a good number of field investigations in him, we note that little has been done on the acquisition of knowledge by students of teaching, which is the purpose of our work. Our research has two closely related purposes: first, we describe the knowledge on teaching students receiving teaching, we will compare it to the knowledge that present students of different courses and specialties, and secondly to describe the knowledge students learn that, it is imperative to ask their teachers how they transmit knowledge from the different areas of teaching, therefore, we need to describe y. In the case of finding differences, knowing what knowledge is promoted from each of them. The development of the investigation has been conducted by a descriptive study, type survey, through which we compare the behavior of groups in different variables, which are not under the control of the investigator, but have occurred naturally, with the aim of building a map of reality. The research was conducted at the faculty of Education at the University of granadal where it is possible to place the seven specialties of the certification of teachers. The assumptions of our investigation, to teaching students, set out below: H1. You can describe the knowledge on teaching students with teachers. H2 There are significant differences in the knowledge they possess on teaching students according to the teaching specialty extended. H3. There are significant differences in the knowledge they possess on teaching students on the basis of teaching the course in which they are enrolled. H4. There dependent relationship between the specialty of teaching that is extending the student and knowledge they acquired on education during their studies. H5. Knowledge on teaching students have teachers can reducirlosa.un finite number of factors that represent so sympathetic. For the trainers of teachers working hypothesis proposals are as follows: H1. You can describe the knowledge passed on teaching trainers teaching their students. H2. There are significant differences between the trainers of teachers belonging to unárea teaching and knowledge they provide their students. H3. There are significant differences in teacher trainers between sex and knowledge that came their students. H4. There are significant differences in teacher trainers between the professional level and knowledge they provide their students. H5. There are significant differences in teacher trainers between age and knowledge they provide their students. H6. There are significant differences in teacher trainers between the years of college experience and knowledge they provide their students. H7. There dependent relationship between knowledge about teaching their students the formaodres teacher and membership of a specific area of teaching. H8. It is possible to identify profiles of subjects among trainers of teachers in terms of knowledge summary: That facilitana their students. H9 is possible grouping 100 variables questionnaire conclomerados that faillten your understanding. In reviewing dela specialist literature on the teacher's knowledge, we have developed a bank of items that after careful selection, shapes our instrument data collection. Finally, we conducted a questionnaire rating scale type llckert, consisting of a series of assertions about in eñanza, where the respondent deb 8 would signal 15c2 ar your level of agreement or disagreement (we have four options laid response: 1 = nothing, 2 = little, 3 = and 4 = very much). Phase thinning of the items of the questionnaire has been carried out through the system of referral to the criteria for judges specialist in the field (métododelphi) questionnaire has been made final two insturmentos, one for students and one for teachers formers teachers, which is ultimately a single instrument modified so that in the case of students is intended to investigate the knowledge they acquired on education during the study of the race, so that the student is asked to rate the acquisition of different types of knowledge that the items proposed in the questionnaire, while in the case of teacher trainers, is intended to explore the knowledge they passed on the instruction from the different area of teaching, so in this case, the teacher should assess the extent to which transmits to his students the knowledge that is proposed in each of the items in the questionnaire. For the selection of the sample, in the case of students, there is a random selection by conglomerates; obtained a total of 1200 questionnaires, representing 30.85% of the population. In the case of student teaching trainers were sent the questionnaire by e internoa all teachers who give classes in the certification of teaching, obtaining a total of 63 questionnaire which translates a un43, 75% of the population of the conclusions general note: The studies teachers seeks greater attention to teaching general knowledge, knowledge of the area, knowledge of educational content and knowledge of the student. During the study of ttt1lación teaching is acquired mainly knowledge of the materiaL is taught, dela both theory and practice; didactic knowledge of the contents, noting the importance of adapting the content that teaches the characteristics of students, regardless of the causes that facilitate or impede the learning of a particular subject and knowledge. Examples of applications and content that can be explained, the content on the planning, awareness of the importance of achieving and maintaining the motivation and interest of the students; knowledge on the development of the kind of a climate of respect and a favorable climate for learning, and finally aware of the importance of verbal communication and the proper use of language by the teacher to encourage their asquisición and an increase in estuidantes is not addressed, especially during the study of the specialties of teaching the importance a good relationship families and knowledge of the socio-economic characteristics of the student body; paradigms from which explores the subject in which it specializes, the clichés and misconceptions within the course; necesiad to know the academic performance the students in previous courses. The important role of nonverbal communication in teaching, pupil involvement in the organization and fucnionamiento center, class management, conflict resolution and detection of leaders; consideration of the personal expectations of pupils and environment regarding their learning and, finally, the role of evaluation. The knowledge that identifies the differences between specialty and another went mainly to two broad categories: on the one hand, we find that part of knowledge didácticogeneral and, secondly, referidosal knowledge of the student. The specialties more different from each other by the type of knowledge that is acquired during their study, are: infant and ed ed. Primary, ed. Infant and ed. Music, ed. Primary and ed. Special ed. Infant and hearing and language, ed. Infant and ed. Physically, ed. Special ed. Music, and finally, ed. Infant and foreign language the especialdiadesque resemble, as it has a higher proportion of similar content are: ed. Primary and ed. Music, ed. Physical and foreign language, foreign language, and hearing and language, ed. Physical and hearing and language, ed. Físicay adución and language, ed. Music and hearing and language, ed. Physical and ed. Music, ed. Infatll and ed. Special and, finally, ed. Special and foreign language. Conclusions that reinforce the current proposal of a European area of higher education, coinciding with the proposal for the degree of master's degrees in two: ed. Child (title specific specialists at the stage educational 0-3 and 3-6 years) and ed. Primary (master generalist) with possible courses (specialist in one or two subjects): foreign language, ed.

Summary: SUMMARY: In recent years there has been opened in Spain a new social and political reality. Reality has hit head on the structure and management of the education system in the country. At this moment has closed one of the most significant parts of this right of autonomy: the process of transfer in the field of education to all nationalities and regions of the state. The scope (length) and intensity (or depth) of this process has varied greatly over time and has been expanding to reach all the autonomous communities. It seems appropriate approach to the study of this process of decentralization, which was sensed as âdesmembramientoâ the educational system. The study is none other than its own rules governing the education system. The objective of this work is to try to see how it has been shaping the educational system with the Spanish state and regional legislation on education, checking whether they are significant differences between the various territories, what's common and what they have brought the choices made by the various educational administrations. The work is divided into three distinct parts. The first part deals with the devolution process, which mainly affects the attainment of competence in education, starting with a brief reference to the process of setting powers in education and the delimitation reached the same. The second part is an analysis of the legislation on education and configuration management autonomic, texts grouped into two lines of the educational system configuration (LODE and LOGSE) and three axes: a) The organization and configuring autonomic systems, b) The management lessons in the non-university educational system in the various territories c) Measures autonomous factors on the quality of education, following the pattern of Title IV of the LOGSE. The third part is extracted the key findings of the survey, following the pattern of transfers, noting those similarities and differences.

Summary: The problem is the dissatisfaction with the science and the search for strategies to overcome the growing functional illiteracy in chemistry detected in secondary education. We conducted a study on the various approaches to scientific literacy and the nature of scientific knowledge, everyday, and vocational school. We analyze the past and present situation of both popular science books as museums or parks, which showed interest in providing the component more playful and fun of science, which is reflected in the proposals didactic. Through this analysis we set the conditions for use of etoquímica (set of teaching strategies that are based on the chemical daily to introduce scientific contents, as well as the subsequent implementation of these in everyday life): defining objectives, selecting and diversify everyday phenomena , using a type of research methodology and ensuring the presence of etoquímica in evaluating the teaching-learning process. We seek, analyze and cuantificamos references that appear daily in a sample of 24 textbooks SCS. These decreases with increasing the level of education, are relegated to be supplements depending on the availability of time, and have greater presence in the illustrations. The activities promote a written rote learning it difficult to use what they have learned for the interpretation of everyday events and activities Laboratory (recipes) become more sophisticated with educational attainment by encouraging research immediate surroundings. The ignitions were abused as a prototype chemical reaction. We design and implement a questionnaire for students with everyday situations, upon review of alternative ideas diagnosed by other researchers to check the disconnect between everyday life and routine chemistry in the classroom is highlighted when posed interpretations of everyday chemical phenomena . The interference between the macro and micro levels that impede such an interpretation would be avoided with a good command of the macroscopic level, focusing on etoquímica prior to the introduction of progressive level submicroscópico allowing interpret what observable. We make a bank of everyday activities with the proposals and discussed books found empty, so we expand the teaching resources directing people to learn tricks reflected in the chemical cleaning, cooking and beauty submitted by readers to different magazines. We seek scientific understanding justifies the effectiveness of these tricks, to discuss their possible use in the classroom teaching and confronted with the interpretation (low) professionals through personal interviews. The new bank allows the realization of various proposals for achieving literacy teaching science. Future work evaluating these proposals go through, continuous training of teachers focusing on etoquímica and the proposed materials for the scientific literacy of the public and for vocational training.

Summary: The objective of this study is to see if the educational spaces for the second cycle of Early Childhood Education, constructed from the existing regulations, give an adequate response to the educational demands generated by the LOGSE. We intend to deepen the relevance of certain educational spaces depending on the use that is made of them. The thesis is divided into two parts. The first is a theoretical framework in which there is a rapprochement with the concepts related to the field of school buildings, for example, legislation that defines these buildings and the role of various environmental variables. In the second part, an empirical study was designed to compare which is the appropriateness of the educational spaces via data from the teachers themselves, other experts, direct observation and consultation of various documentary sources. The investigation arose from a qualitative perspective, as it prioritizes the understanding and interpretation of events from the viewpoint of those involved, working mostly with qualitative data to get explanatory theories. The method has been adopted and used ethnographic the words of teachers to develop the acting categories that describe the reality in which they participate.

Summary: This thesis is a work focusing on the study of the organs of school management in Portugal, with its epicenter in the new model of autonomy for the Administration and Management of Colleges of Basic Education and Secondary Education, initiated in the year 1998. From the perspective of participation, intended to find a history of this movement in the most significant education reforms, especially since the Education Reform of the Marquis de Pombal, medidados the century.

Summary: The contents of this Doctoral Thesis deals with the incidence of the syndrome Burnout, teachers in early childhood education and primary area Valles West. Burnout syndrome is a social and public health. Some practitioners are forced to engage for hours on the problems and concerns of the people they do their work. The exercise continued in the teaching profession in such conditions, goes to creating a backlog of sensations, as well as a staff wear, which can lead to chronic stress and lead the state efinicio as exhausted, "burned" or Burnout syndrome. The study focuses on knowing some of the perceptions and opinions of teachers in relation to stress, and specifically to Bornout, the frequency with which manifests itself, as well as its relationship to some aspects of the initial and ongoing training received. For this purpose we use the inventory Maslach Burnout Inventory (Masach and Jackson, 1981-official translation into Spanish of Seisdedos, 1997-), an instrument of prestige and scientific strength, which will allow us to determine the degree of stress and Burnout, depending on the intensity with which some teachers express certain feelings. A questionnaire consisting of twenty-two items on three scales, each of which is identified with the three dimensions established by the aforementioned authors, such as defining burnout syndrome, emotional fatigue, Despersonalización, Relationship staff. To complement and contextualize this study, develop a questionnaire that will bring personal and professional data associated with the attitudes of teachers toward their profession and lifelong learning, to be able to relate. As a possible prevention propose collaborative development, which involves a redefinition of the school culture, integrating a shared vision of the principles and goals, as well as the conception of the relationship of the school with the social, political and cultural fields. The cooperative and collaborative culture come to express a comprehensive and holistic manner, as opposed to individualism, competitiveness and professionalism endemic.

Summary: The Third Cycle of the General Education Basic is a new proposal on education and Argentina salteña which aims to Act by promoting equal opportunities and possibilities for all learners, with an emphasis on the incorporation into the system of social sectors ensuring their postponed retention and promotion. This study is intended to characterize the process of curriculum development for EGB3 of Salta, Argentina, as a subject of study while analyzing them with the aim of observing the different political, national and provincial, curriculum development from reforms initiated in the early 90's. Time in which I participated actively engaged as technical process of implementing curriculum. This study was supported by Bunge that we drew two levels in the theory: aesthetics and dynamics. This required: systematized knowledge relations logistical before unconnected facts explain through scenarios, increasing knowledge through new proposals and contrasting scenarios. It was developed both in the public and private educational establishments belonging to the pilot and the generalization of the cycle at the provincial level. In order to talk about the process of curriculum development for EGB3 has been chosen as an alternative to study the eye of managers (as a link political and institutional), the context (ie the temporary space framework of the reform and its implementation) and content (powers, structure, length). The study was confined to the mid-90, as the essential bases of the reform, both from the policy and actions in specific implementation occurred in this period. So this argument can derive the following scientific contributions: curricular reform of the nineties in the province of Salta comes in the context of major changes in the management of the education sector and more comprehensively in the context of strong political and redefinitions of the government: * The democratic order promotes education reforms. * Decentralization promotes education reforms. * The coordination between the central government and the provincial government promotes education reforms. * The financial resources of international agencies need continuity subsequent to the achievement of the reforms. * Teacher training promotes the implementation of the reforms. * Completion of evaluation elements developed collectively, promotes learning. The thesis, in addition to the points outlined above, provides a series of recommendations that could, if implemented, lead to substantial improvements in the curricula. It closes convinced attend a change of era that must be addressed and that is emerging contexts marked by a more pronounced globalization of the profound changes in the demographic structure of the countries in the composition of families, the role of women in society, the weakening of community ties and the emergence of phenomena such as violence and drugs, among others. These changes are introduced rapidly in educational systems and demanded new challenges for education and teaching, require complete and evaluate initiatives, and close the pending proceeding with the design of a new generation of reforms.
