Fundeb e transição demográfica
Este artigo analisa os efeitos do modelo de financiamento educacional via Fundeb sobre a equidade federativa em contextos demográficos contrastantes, com base em um estudo comparativo entre os municípios cearenses de Caucaia (com retração populacional) e Eusébio (em expansão populacional). A pesquisa operacionalizou quatro indicadores principais: taxa de crescimento/redução de matrículas, relação Fundeb/recursos próprios, custo aluno-ano e densid…
Innovation in Portuguese schools
Massification of schooling ensured all students access to education. Until now, the industrial school model was ideal, however, due to the coexistence of cultural and socioeconomic differences, it has become ineffective. Consequently, problems of school failure, dropout and hidden school dropout related to the school mission emerged. Thus, the solution reached, after several relatively unsuccessful “top-down” reforms, is the emergence of a “botto…
Happiness in school organizations
Introduction Educational organizations are increasingly concerned with students’ well-being and happiness in order to improve the quality of learning and promote the sustainability of teaching. Literature has shown that teacher happiness is related to students’ happiness and contributes to better academic performance, greater motivation and psychological well-being. In an increasingly uncertain, unpredictable and competitive school organizational…
School leadership and organization in times of complexity
This article describes a possible metamorphosis of school grammar—the underlying structures, practices, and norms that shape how schools function—through the organization of teaching by educational teams. Educational teams can serve as catalysts for transforming schools into more personalized, flexible, interactive, and adaptive systems. It also discusses the implications of these structural changes for the shift toward more integrative leadershi…
Innovation Plans in Portuguese Schools
Academic failure and social inequalities are becoming more prevalent in schools. While knowledge has evolved and society has undergone significant transformation, schools have largely remained structured around a uniform model applied indiscriminately to all. In Portugal, efforts were made to initiate change through the conceptualisation and implementation of innovation plans to alter the prevailing grammar of schooling, prompting an inquiry into…
Unveiling Students’ Voices
Understanding students’ feelings about daily school life can be a tool for schools to enhance their learning experience and sense of belonging. Despite the abundant research on achievement and engagement, few studies jointly examine the effect of students’ over-age status considering the grade attended, gender, and school level within a multi-domain framework of student feelings. Even rarer are studies that examine how these variables interrelate…
Educational teams
Quality education that prepares young people to think and make ethically responsible decisions seems to be the only sustainable solution to respond to today’s global challenges. However, this capacity to learn requires a new school grammar, through the creation of conditions, structures and cultures that promote relationships and synergies capable of transforming teachers and school leaders into creative learners and facilitators of learning. In …
Scouts’ Perspectives on Learning Experiences from a Pedagogical Innovation Scope
The Portuguese educational system aims at nurturing the holistic development of individuals and societal progress, surpassing the mere transmission of curriculum-based knowledge. While considerable advancements have been made, the need for ongoing innovation and equal educational opportunities remains evident, so that all children can have not only equal access to education, but also equal chances of success. This study investigates the largest P…
Organizational Learning within the Context of the Functioning of Educational Teams
Responding to contemporary global challenges will require quality education, which presupposes changes in schools’ organizational structures, new roles and mentalities for the players involved and a culture of learning at the different levels of organizations. In this regard, we strive to understand how changing certain organizational structures, more specifically the organization of teaching by educational teams operating as professional learnin…
Peer Feedback
Peer feedback serves as a pedagogical methodology that actively engages students throughout their academic journey. Developing metacognitive competences of students in a clinical training context motivates student’s engagement and active participation in the learning and assessment processes as added value for academic success. It is particularly effective in fostering competences that are crucial for future professional practice. This study intr…
Systematic Literature Review of Innovative Schools
The traditional school model is subject to growing social pressure. The collective awareness of the need to find new pedagogical and organizational approaches has fueled the dynamics of school innovation. Over the last two decades, several schools have emerged worldwide bearing innovative models. The present study pursued two objectives: first—map the innovative schools worldwide, with students between 10/11 and 17/18 years old, referenced by aca…
A scoping review of problems and challenges faced by school leaders (2003–2019)
The purpose of this scoping review is to analyse the literature concerning principals’ problems and challenges, beginning in 2003 and ending in 2019. The research team conducted an extensive search to locate relevant academic literature, comprising 17 years of research, and a total of 153 documents were analysed. According to the findings, most of the documents (71%) correspond to the last six years (2014–2019), and most are studies from Anglo-Sa…
Strategy and Strategic Leadership in Education
Strategy and strategic leadership are critical issues for school leaders. However, strategy as a field of research has largely been overlooked within the educational leadership literature. Most of the theoretical and empirical work on strategy and strategic leadership over the past decades has been related to non-educational settings, and scholarship devoted to these issues in education is still minimal. The purpose of this scoping review was to …
A Qualitative Focus Group Study for the Exploration of Knowledge and Attitudes of Informal Caregivers Toward Breast Cancer
Breast cancer (BC) early screening and detection is a main component for the outcome of the treatment and overall survival. Informal caregivers (ICGs) are less likely to initiate early BC screening methods and utilize health services. The purpose of this study was to explore ICGs' knowledge and perceptions, including educational and training opportunities or barriers, in promoting early detection practices for BC, as well as healthcare profession…
Portuguese Principals’ Professional Development Needs and Preferred Learning Methods
Due to the crucial role principals have on school outcomes, investing in their training is a cost-effective approach for schools’ improvement. Research shows that principals attribute pertinence to their ongoing professional development. However, little research has been conducted on principals’ training needs from their viewpoint, particularly in Portugal. Through individual interviews (n = 19) and a questionnaire (n = 117) to principals, we col…
