RESUMO. Urge entender o Trabalho de Casa (TPC) como processo complexo para o qual conflui um vasto leque de factores impactantes. Neste relato analisam-se as relações entre os perfis de atitudes e comportamentos diante do TPC de Inglês e o nível instrutivo dos pais, a auto-eficácia percebida nessa disciplina bem como a correlação entre tais perfis de TPC e os perfis auto-regulatórios, em face do estudo. A amostra tomada é composta de 3929 alunos. O nível instrutivo dos pais associa-se positiva e significativamente aos perfis de atitudes e comportamentos de TPC. As atitudes e comportamentos de TPC correlacionam-se, positiva e significativamente, com os perfis auto-regulatórios, diante do estudo. Alunos que se percepcionam como mais auto-eficazes registam melhores perfis de atitudes e comportamentos de TPC. Os resultados sugerem a necessidade de os diferentes parceiros do sistema educativo analisarem e promoverem activamente os processos auto-regulatórios envolvidos no ensino-aprendizagem em geral e no TPC em particular. Palavras-chave: Trabalho de casa (TPC), aprendizagem auto-regulada, envolvimento parental. HOMEWORK, SELF-REGULATED LEARNING AND PARENT INVOLVEMENT ABSTRACT. There is a need to view homework (HW) as a process for which a vast number of obstructive factors converges. In this report the interrelations between students of English as a Foreign Language, homework attitudes and behaviors, and their parents' education and students' perceived self-efficacy in EFL are analyzed. The correlation between students' EFL homework attitudes and behaviors and students' self-regulated learning profiles are also discussed. The study involved 3929 students, from 5 th to 9 th grades compulsory education. The collected data evidenced the positive and significant associations between EFL students' attitudes and behaviors towards homework and the parents' education and students' perceived self-efficacy in EFL. The correlation between EFL students' attitudes and behaviors towards homework and students' self-regulated learning profiles proves to be positive and significant. Calling the attention of teachers and educators to the main role of motivational and self-regulatory aspects involved in the learning process and, particularly, in the homework process, is the ultimate feature of the present article.
In Portugal, as in other European countries, gypsy children remain largely at the margins of the educational system. Their underachievement and the associated dropout rates from school are serious educational issues and factors contributing to their marginalization in society. However, there is limited research qualitatively examining the different ways in which gypsy children think about learning. The current study examined data provided by 26 Portuguese gypsy elementary school children ranging from 9- to 13- years-old. Data analysis presented an outcome space representing the gypsy children’s qualitatively different conceptions of learning. Accordingly with their gypsy culture, these Portuguese students perceived their learning of basic numeracy and literacy skills as important for helping their families selling at fairs. These children indicated that they do not intend to continue studying beyond elementary school as they believe that learning of these basic skills is enough for living as a gypsy. The implications for educational processes and school practices are discussed.
O Trabalho de Casa (TPC) é uma estratégia instrutiva amplamente utilizada na Escola de muitos países. O TPC é um processo complexo que é afectado por múltiplos factores de ordem cognitiva, motivacional, social e contextual. A investigação tem-se centrado no tempo despendido na realização das tarefas de TPC, no entanto os resultados de vários estudos e as críticas metodológicas sugerem a necessidade de direccionar a pesquisa para outras variáveis. O objectivo deste estudo é a análise do poder preditivo da auto-eficácia percebida na Matemática e de três dimensões menos exploradas na literatura do TPC (e.g., número de TPC prescritos, taxa de completamento, e correcção percebida do TPC) sobre o rendimento a matemática, em alunos portugueses do 5.º e 6.º ano de escolaridade (10 e 11 anos). Os resultados sugerem que o rendimento a matemática se encontra explicado, positiva e significativamente, pelas variáveis escolhidas. As conclusões sugerem a urgência de repensar o TPC como ferramenta educativa promotora do sucesso académico.
