School attrition in Goma town
The education system in the Democratic Republic of Congo faces multiple deficiencies such as poor conditions of studies, lack of adequate infrastructures, lack of capacity-building of teachers, poor salaries for instructors, lack of documentations or libraries and weak commitment of national authorities to enhance education. All these problems have a negative impact on the education system in the country, impeding both its development and that of its populations, particularly the children who are the future of the nation. ''The Democratic Republic of Congo's the law recognises the right to education ensuring equal access to education and vocational training ''. We assume that the Government has the primary responsibility to promote the education of all Congolese children nationwide since education is the basis of development. Unfortunately, we are witnessing the increase of the number of children who do not go school anymore due to multiple reasons; some of them are wandering in the streets, begging or doing some hard labours in order to survive. All these facts inspired us to conduct a study on school attrition or school dropout in Goma town.

The Construction of Professional Teaching Identity
Reflecting on the professional identity of educators is a point of great relevance to the questions surrounding education, since being a teacher means interacting with others and with the environment in which you are inserted, producing and transmitting knowledge in education in a dynamic way. With this in mind, the aim was to analyse the discourse and memories of eight female primary school teachers interviewed in Recife's municipal education system, to observe the mutual influences and concomitant professional and personal constructions of the educators, identifying their social realities, the evolutionary paths of their professional identity constructions and the main aspects of their personal lives. After all, the personal self and the teaching self are constructed progressively through professional experiences and choices. In this way, this book is aimed at teachers and education scholars in general, in order to serve as a basis for their reflections, especially those about the educator's formational process.
Inclusive education and integration
Inclusive education and integration in public and private regular schools in Mexico refers to an educational approach that seeks to ensure that all students, regardless of their individual differences, have the opportunity to receive a quality education in regular settings. This involves the inclusion of students with disabilities, cultural differences, linguistic and other challenges in traditional classrooms. In Mexico, this approach is promoted through laws and educational policies that seek to eliminate barriers and promote equal opportunities for all students. It emphasizes the importance of adapting instruction and the school environment to meet the individual needs of each student, providing additional support when necessary.Both public and private schools are called upon to implement inclusive practices. This involves teacher training, modification of facilities and resources, and close collaboration between education professionals and other specialists in the development of inclusion plans.

From Technique to Science
A public consultation held in 2009 by the Ministry of Education's Higher Education Secretariat deemed the scientific production of bachelor's degree courses in Executive Secretarial to be insufficient, questioning whether they should retain the title of bachelor's degree or whether they should become just technical or technologist courses. The episode resulted in academic and professional mobilization around the issue, proving and supporting the continuity of higher education. This panorama was the inspiration for the present work, which seeks to analyze the culture of scientific production in Executive Secretarial. To achieve this goal, the CNPq Research Groups Platform and the Lattes Platform were used as data sources, in which 11 research groups in the secretarial area were identified. The analyses extracted make it possible to quantitatively analyze the history and context of scientific research in Executive Secretarial, taking into account the development of science and academic research in Brazil, and more specifically the panorama of secretarial scientific research.
Culture and Physical Education
The concept of culture has gone through different decades and meanings, ranging from cultivating something to being synonymous with developed civilisations. However, armed and literary wars have made this concept a little broader. Thus, with the development of anthropological studies, we finally had a very comprehensive meaning for culture: all of humanity's production. A certain resistance to this definition on the part of the elites inspired a group called the Centre for the Study of Contemporary Culture to develop Cultural Studies. Understanding Physical Education as a production of humanity, the aim is, through a historical review, to understand how cultural arenas act on our object of study.

It is believed that teachers who promote reflective classrooms ensure that students are fully engaged in the process of making meaning. Essentially, reflection is important because it is the process that enables teachers to learn from their educational experiences and, at the same time, offers meaning to their teaching practices.
Observing Social Values among prospective Teachers in Islamabad
The purpose of the research study is to investigate the social ideals that aspiring teachers have. Using a questionnaire, the study polled 50 teacher education students from Islamabad Model College for boy's street no, 17, I-10/1. The questionnaire asked about social values held by the participants, including their opinions about multiculturalism, social justice, and educational equity. The study's findings show that the majority of participants had strong social ideals and strongly agreed on matters of social justice and equity.

Sell.More. Now!
30 years of sales and lead generation experience and knowledge condensed into an easy-to-read book for the new, up-and-coming and established salesperson or business owner.How it all started...I remember sitting in my car on the first day of selling Pay-TV, nervous as hell, heavy metal music blaring from my new Honda Civic, I was reluctant to open the door, it felt easier just to start the engine and drive away, yet that didn't happen, I needed this new job. Taking a deep breath, I picked up my assigned 'sales walk' of homes I was to door knock and with every bit of nervous energy I could muster, I walked briskly down the first drive to that imposing front door, with no idea how the resident behind it would respond. Hmm, no one home...on to the next door. F.E.A.R - False Expectations Appearing Real. That first door had broken the ice, I marched on to each subsequent household and after a dozen homes had talked to a few of their residents, no one slammed the door in my face, no one abused me with expletives, most, at least on this day, were polite and listened to my spiel. With growing confidence, I continued with a determined mindset to make a sale, and I did. It was the last door of the day and after three hours sitting at a down-to-earth couple's dining room table secured my first pay-tv contract. I felt a surge of accomplishment that I took back to the office to share with my team members, my three-year career in door-to-door sales had begun and where it would ultimately take me was to be a long and rewarding journey.Now three decades later and with much water under the bridge I've had time to reflect on what it is to be a success in sales and how my knowledge can go a long way to help new and current salespeople reach their best performance and earn a living that they may never thought possible.Why professional sales and negotiation skills are so important? If you are already in a sales career, just starting, managing a team, or in business for yourself, then increasing your ability to sell and negotiate will be your path to future and often spectacular success. Selling and negotiating skills are and have always been part of human communication and have been constantly refined over thousands of years, and best of all almost anyone can benefit from learning sales skills. The additional benefit of having these skills is that they are not only for sales professionals but can be used within our personal lives as well.In Sell.More. Now! I cover all aspects of the selling process so necessary for the professional salesperson to be a long-term success in their sales career as well as for business owners looking to gain an edge in their sales teams' performance. Your investment in this book may be small but the application of its contents can be life-changing for those wishing to embrace a career in sales or running a business.Onwards and Upwards, Regards, James
Integral Education
When I was young, it disturbed me that some children left school and remained on the streets, alone. Today, working with young people, I understand that there is much more behind the situation of children who remain alone after school. It took me a while to understand Full-Time Education as a Constitutional Right, and it took me a while to realize the importance of guaranteeing different learning opportunities in multiple languages. When I accepted the experience of coordinating a full-time education program, I found myself faced with the realization of my childhood dream, faced with the possibility of promoting social transformation through education. Achievements, progress, challenges... I'll leave the comments to the evaluation and monitoring.
School-Territory
The study was concerned with analyzing the relationship between the school and the territory, in order to identify the mediations and participation of the subjects in the construction of territorialization at the Beato Eug礙nio Mazenod Municipal School and its community. The aim is to contribute elements for future evaluations of the object of study. The school works with participatory management, in which everyone in the school community takes part in decisions and actions. Mazenod's elementary school has made progress in recent years and can be considered one of the best in the city of Recife. As far as the research is concerned, at first, the school transmits capitalist culture, where knowledge is based on the interests of the middle class, but implicitly. However, this elite does not play a direct role in the functioning of the school, nor in the appropriation of its territory; this function is carried out by the state, which defines itself as a "mediator" of the interests of the dominant class. In a second moment, the school analyzed is an example of these institutions, which through their ability to transform the territory, appropriate and incorporate their culture, through the specificities of the space.
The Missing Billionaires
An Economist Best Book of the Year "Making Money and Keeping It" - The Wall Street Journal Over the past century, if the wealthiest families had spent a reasonable fraction of their wealth, paid taxes, invested in the stock market, and passed their wealth down to the next generation, there would be tens of thousands of billionaire heirs to generations-old fortunes today. The puzzle of The Missing Billionaires is why you cannot find one such billionaire on any current rich list. There are a number of explanations, but this book is focused on one mistake which is of profound importance to all investors: poor risk decisions, both in investing and spending. Many of these families didn't choose bad investments- they sized them incorrectly- and allowed their spending decisions to amplify this mistake. The Missing Billionaires book offers a simple yet powerful framework for making important lifetime financial decisions in a systematic and rational way. It's for readers with a baseline level of financial literacy, but doesn't require a PhD. It fills the gap between personal finance books and the academic literature, bringing the valuable insights of academic finance to non-specialists. Part One builds the theory of optimal investment sizing from first principles, starting with betting on biased coins. Part Two covers lifetime financial decision-making, with emphasis on the integration of investment, saving and spending decisions. Part Three covers practical implementation details, including how to calibrate your personal level of risk-aversion, and how to estimate the expected return and risk on a broad spectrum of investments. The book is packed with case studies and anecdotes, including one about Victor's investment with LTCM as a partner, and a bonus chapter on Liar's Poker. The authors draw extensively on their own experiences as principals of Elm Wealth, a multi-billion-dollar wealth management practice, and prior to that on their years as arbitrage traders- Victor at Salomon Brothers and LTCM, and James at Nationsbank/CRT and Citadel. Whether you are young and building wealth, an entrepreneur invested heavily in your own business, or at a stage where your primary focus is investing and spending, The Missing Billionaires: A Guide to Better Financial Decisions is your must-have resource for thoughtful financial decision-making.

University-school collaboration and teacher professional development
The notion of teacher training has been conceived in different ways over time, ranging from the idea of training to current conceptions of a broader and more continuous process. We know that this training must include the development of a competent reflective practice through learning that takes place in practical situations that take into account the context in which educational practices are inserted, becoming the possibility of creating spaces for participation, reflection and training. From this perspective, teacher professional development is seen as a process that involves not only initial and continuing training, but also different ways of working that promote the exchange of experiences, the sharing of knowledge between teachers and consolidate spaces for mutual training. In this sense, collaboration has proved particularly important. In this paper we aim to investigate the conceptions of teacher training and professional development in the context of a collaborative project in order to answer the following question: How and in what aspects can a university-school collaborative project contribute to the Professional Development of Teachers?
From Ludopoietic Formation to the Autopoiesis of Leisure
In the context of the academic training of leisure professionals, Ludopoietic experience becomes essential so that they can learn to self-liberate in space and time and so that Ludopoiesis can be cultivated in favourable soil and fertilised with the emotions of the joy of living. We learnt from Nietzsche that those who think about life, such as philosophers, should be the most important educators and animators of life, and should show their poetically lived life as an example of their poetic philosophy of life. Thus, the philosophy and life of a thinker, educator and animator should be appreciated as a work of art, for its beauty and as a model of a "beautiful possibility of life".
Teaching qualifications in the context of inclusion
In the context of Inclusive Education, the target audience for Special Education is made up of students with specific educational needs who require specialised educational assistance, both in multi-functional resource rooms and in regular classrooms. Therefore, all teaching staff must be trained in the teaching-learning process for students with differentiated educational needs. With this in mind, this book takes a critical-reflexive approach to the initial and ongoing training of primary school teachers within the principles of inclusion.
Listening to meaningful silence

This is a dialog between linguistics and psychopedagogy.

The pedagogical conceptions of deaf teachers
In 1998 I had my first contact with the Brazilian Sign Language (LIBRAS), an interest in and love for the deaf community through the Nova Vida Church in Belford Roxo/RJ, where I am a member. From that moment on, my life changed and with it my family, ecclesiastical, educational, professional and social future. The following year we created MUS - Minist矇rio Un癟瓊o Silenciosa. Now, everything revolves around this linguistic-cultural coexistence with deaf people. I took LIBRAS courses at FENEIS and a LIBRAS interpreter course offered by FENEIS in partnership with INES. I worked as a LIBRAS interpreter at FENEIS and APADA, renowned institutions for the deaf in Brazil. I was a face-to-face and online tutor for the first graduating class of the Bachelor of Letters in Libras and an inclusion workshop and interpreter for the NGO Escola de Gente: comunica癟瓊o em inclus瓊o. In this work, my aspiration is to be able to contribute with yet another investigation that contributes to the rise and visibility of LIBRAS, for a new look at deaf teachers.

The role of didactics in distance education student learning
Today's world is undergoing a very rapid process of innovation in all areas, and distance education is one of them. However, in order to implement quality education, implementers and educators are required not only to innovate technologically, but also, and above all, to adopt didactic-pedagogical practices suited to this new learning environment. In this context, a well-structured didactic approach is what will enable knowledge to be built that makes the student a critical citizen who is well prepared to face the great challenges that the globalised market presents.
Workshops on Experience Reports in Inclusive Education
"The problem of inclusive education implies changes in the subjectivity of those involved in educational processes - that's why it's so difficult; it implies really seeing things differently. For me, the problem of the lack of technical preparation, which is often put forward as the main problem, is indeed a problem; however, from my perspective, the main problem is the need to change the way we conceive of school and, especially, the need to fight against prejudices and attitudes that are historically ingrained in most of us."
