Item Comparing university student conceptions of assessment : Brazilian and New Zealand beliefs.(Instituto de Educação da Universidade de Lisboa, 2015) Matos, Daniel Abud Seabra; Brown, Gavin Thomas LumsdenStudent conceptions of assessment are an aspect of self-regulation theory with adaptive and maladaptive factors. Responses to the Student Conceptions of Assessment inventory seem to be sensitive to the dominant uses of assessment within a society. A multi-group confirmatory factor analysis was conducted between Brazilian and New Zealand university students. A common, inter-correlated 8-factor solution was found, but was not invariant between samples. New Zealand students were positive about the predictive role of assessment, perhaps because opportunity to enter higher education is relatively equitable. Brazilian students had a more negative conception of assessment, perhaps reflecting the largely summative use of assessment in higher education. This study supports the notion that educational beliefs are ecologically rational.Item First lines of schooling : regius and private teachers in Brazil, 1759-1834.(2016) Antunes, Álvaro de AraújoThe article presents a brief overview of education in Brazil between 1759 and 1834. Delimited by the creation of the position of Regius teacher and by the decentralization promoted by the Additional Act of 1834, it discusses the process of state control, secularization, and promotion of schooling in the Portuguese America and the independent Brazil. Considering the regional characteristics of the colonial territory, the analyses carried out focus on the Capitania de Minas Gerais [Captaincy of Minas Gerais] because of its economic importance in the context of a “world economy”. The article provides a quantitative assessment of the schooling in various regions of Brazil and presents the profile of the teachers who worked in Mariana, Minas Gerais, contributing to the study of the first lines of school education in the Luso-Brazilian modernity.
