Abstract:

This study is a critical analysis of Waldorf teacher education in Australia. Beginning with an exposition of the central tenets of Rudolf Steiner's philosophy and educational theory, and his lectures to teachers, the author identifies what he sees as the requirements and characteristics of an ideal Waldorf teacher education program. The study next investigates the development of Waldorf teacher education provision in Australia, and surveys a wide cross-section of teachers and teacher educators in Australian Waldorf schools, to ascertain the type of preparation they received or have contributed to, and elicit their views as to its strengths and weaknesses. These findings are then critically analysed, making comparisons with Waldorf teacher education programs in other countries. The feasibility and implications of including a Waldorf course in a main-stream teacher education Faculty in Australian universities are discussed, in relation to current prevailing government policies regarding schooling and the values and emphases which these impose upon state university courses. The study concludes with proposals for change and improvement in Waldorf teacher education provision in Australia to make Waldorf teachers better prepared to educate Australian children for the 21st century, still in keeping with the essential values of Steiner education.

Assim, Steiner idealiza a pedagogia Waldorf com a missão desenvolver não só o lado intelectual das crianças, mas também, o emocional, o psicológico, o intuitivo e a experiência concreta. Dentro deste contexto, a experiência espacial que toca a criança, física e criativamente, é considerada tão significativa quanto o ensino das matérias que alimenta a capacidade intelectual e social da criança. Consequentemente existe uma preocupação em proporcionar aos alunos espaços físicos adequados ao processo de ensino. Este fato se reflete na arquitetura de seus prédios, que se destacam por suas formas orgânicas e peculiares, caracterizando um tipo arquitetônico. Tendo em vista a importância da arquitetura para o processo de aprendizado Waldorf e, também, o valor da identidade para uma comunidade, essa pesquisa propôs-se a estudar a arquitetura dos prédios das escolas Waldorf. Esta foi analisada sob o foco da linguagem dos parâmetros de Christopher Alexander que possibilitou a identificação de diferentes soluções projetuais para os três princípios que norteiam a construção desse tipo arquitetônico: a integração, a correlação e a inspiração. Assim, com base no estudo teórico da pedagogia Waldorf e na análise das escolas, foi possível propor sugestões projetuais para auxiliar arquitetos, que venham a projetar escolas Waldorf, a preservar o "tipo arquitetônico". Abstract: The Waldorf School had its origins in Germany in 1919, when the owner of the cigarettes factory Waldorf Astoria asked to the educator and philosopher Rudolf Steiner to organize a school for the sons of its workers. Thus, Steiner Waldorf idealizes the Waldorf Pedagogy with the mission of developing not only the intellectual side of children, but also the emotional, psychological, intuitive and concrete experience. In this context, the spatial experience that touches the child physically and creatively is considered as significant as the courses taught, feeding the intellectual capacity and social development of the child. Consequently, there is a concern in providing the students with physical spaces adequate to the teaching process. This fact is reflected in the architecture of its buildings, which are distinguished for its organic and peculiar forms, featuring an architectural type. Given the importance of the architecture for the Waldorf learning process, and also the value of identity for a community, this research aimed to study the building of Waldorf schools. That was analyzed under the focus of Christopher Alexander language patterns which allowed to identify different design solutions in accordance to the three principles that rules the building of this architectural type: integration, correlation and inspiration. Thus, based on a theoretical study about the Waldorf pedagogy as well as on the analysis of its school building it was possible to propose design solutions to help architects, which come to project Waldorf schools, to preserve this architectural type.

Abstract:

This study examines twelve teachers’ experiences of evaluation of their own practices and explores these teachers’ beliefs about the value of these evaluations in terms of their continuing professional growth. It investigates the purposes and procedures for evaluating teachers and analyzes the results of evaluations in the context of a Waldorf school. Within Waldorf schools, teachers are responsible for identifying standards of good teaching and for implementing evaluation tools for themselves. The accountability measures they designed in this school were intended for educational quality control, to provide direction for continuing professional development, and to determine their continuing employment. The underlying assumptions in conducting these evaluations were that teachers’ work could be fruitfully evaluated, that student achievement was effected by teachers’ skills, and that teachers could and should develop their skills through continuing professional development. Interviews, field notes, focus group conversation, and school documents provided my research data. My central questions addressed evaluation through the participants’ experiences and identified the results they distinguished as valuable or not valuable. I interviewed teachers who had been evaluated and the teachers responsible for overseeing evaluations. Some participants had a dual role and fit both categories. The parameters of this study were limited to single interviews with the twelve teachers who volunteered. The data analysis identified four dimensions of the teacher evaluation practices that participants recognized as worthwhile. These were self-evaluation, work with skilled evaluators, positive recognition by peers and others, and support provided for continuing professional development. Most participants found value in the evaluation experiences despite initial feelings of anxiety and fear. Outcomes for most included increased confidence and motivation resulting from positive encounters that effected participants’ senses of identity and self worth. This study investigates the value of each dimension of this four-part evaluation process for teachers’ professional growth and development.

To offer to the Elementary School teacher one more tool to reach students in a more satisfactory way, this work has researched and applied a more artistic way to teach the contents cited above, inspired in Waldorf Education. It was created by Rudolf Steiner right after the First World War. Besides the artistic part, it was also considered the rhythm of teaching proposed by Steiner, respecting the age of the students and calling successively to the thinking, the feelling and the will during all class activities. The work was done in a class of the sixth grade of the E.E. Prof. Adail Malmegrim Gonçalves during the year of 2013 and considered the teaching of Fractions from the very beginning. O ensino de frações representa um grande desafio para a maioria dos professores a partir do quarto ano do Ensino Fundamental país afora. Para oferecer ao professor do Ensino Fundamental mais uma ferramenta para atingir os alunos de forma mais satisfatória, neste trabalho foi pesquisada e aplicada uma maneira mais artística para o ensino do conteúdo citado acima inspirada na Pedagogia Waldorf, criada por Rudolf Steiner logo após a Primeira Guerra Mundial. Além da parte artística foi considerado também o ritmo de aula proposto por Steiner, respeitando a idade dos alunos e apelando sucessivamente ao pensar, ao sentir e ao querer durante todas as aulas. A aplicação foi realizada em uma turma de sexto ano da E.E. Prof. Adail Malmegrim Gonçalves durante o ano de 2013 e foi considerado o ensino de frações desde o início. Como resultado foi observado que, embora a metodologia empregada não tenha feito com que todos os alunos atingissem um nível avançando no conteúdo trabalhado, a participação e satisfação dos alunos foram maiores do que em outros momentos onde a Pedagogia Waldorf não serviu como inspiração.

As a project based on teaching methods for which there are few academic works, we intend to present herein an extract of its main fundamental elements together with its pedagogic and theoretical basis, the special elements that constitutes the project s main directive, as well as the theoretical foundation for all faculty continual learning system. A descriptive and analytical study of quantitative and qualitative nature was chosen. To obtain the necessary data, structured questionnaires, structured interviews with written and audio-recorded statements, as well as videotaped interviews and activities for further analysis and interpretation of data, were used. On each of the five municipalities where the project was implemented, more than 70% of attendance was obtained from the 125 teachers who completed the training course - with 102 teachers present whenever those evaluations were made, which represents 81.6% of the participants. Through this analysis, we believe the positive evaluation made by teachers who took part in program Dom da Palavra , answered its questionnaires and interviews, was based on how the proposed concepts and practices responded to those teachers real needs and helped them solve daily problems at school. In addition, the training model presented, on how continual education of teachers must be carried out, was made in accordance with concepts and proposals by several important and academically acknowledged authors. Esta pesquisa teve como objetivo analisar como os professores do 1º ciclo do ensino fundamental, que participaram do Projeto Dom da Palavra (PDP) uma intervenção de formação continuada baseada na Pedagogia Waldorf analisaram as contribuições à sua prática pedagógica proporcionadas pelos conceitos e práticas propostos. Sendo uma intervenção baseada numa linha pedagógica sobre a qual há poucos trabalhos acadêmicos, apresentamos nesta dissertação um resumo dos principais fundamentos e o referencial teórico desta pedagogia, e seus elementos que constituem o conteúdo da intervenção, assim como a fundamentação teórica sobre o aprendizado continuado da docência. Optamos por um estudo descritivoanalítico de natureza quantitativa e qualitativa do material coletado. Para o levantamento dos dados foram utilizados questionários estruturados, entrevistas semiestruturadas e depoimentos escritos e gravados em áudio, assim como entrevistas e atividades gravadas em vídeo, para posterior análise e interpretação dos dados. Nos cinco municípios onde o projeto se realizou, participaram 125 professores considerando os que concluíram o curso com mais de 70% de presença e 102 estiveram presentes nos dias em que se fizeram as avaliações do curso, representando 81,6% dos participantes. A análise nos permitiu concluir que o Projeto Dom da Palavra foi avaliado de forma positiva pelos participantes que responderam aos questionários e entrevistas realizados, porque as práticas e os conceitos trabalhados atenderam a necessidades reais dos professores e ajudaram a resolver problemas do dia a dia escolar. Além disso, o modelo de formação realizado mostrou estar de acordo com os conceitos e propostas, de diversos autores importantes e reconhecidos no meio acadêmico, sobre como deve ser realizada a educação continuada de professores.

The family and school staff's concern about these issues makes us look for different ways to work, not only cognitive learning but also the social and emotional aspect. Regarding this and trying to get to know different approaches to work with moral values, we interviewed Physical Education teachers from Public and Waldorf schools from two cities in the countryside of São Paulo. That way, in this research we aim to analyze the moral development of students according to the Physical Education teachers' understanding in these contexts, regarding a) show how students learn moral values in Physical Education classes in the public system and Waldorf school; b) ascertain the challenges and/or confrontations in the students' moral formation and; c) ascertain pedagogical practices that differ in the formation of moral values. It is qualitative research and for data collection, and it was used a semi-structured interview as a research instrument. The data was analyzed concerning the literature review and according to the content analysis. We found in the scope of the research that Physical Education teachers try to work students' moral development, but there may be some factors to contribute to greater outcomes; such as the teacher's connection to t...

Abstract:

A identidade visual das escolas Waldorf, que constituem unidades independentes entre si, é construída de uma forma diferente da que ocorre em outras escolas. Elas apresentam uma série de manifestações visuais espontâneas, que as fazem ser reconhecidas como parte de um todo. Nesta pesquisa qualitativa procurou-se compreender que manifestações visuais são essas e de que forma elas ajudam na construção das identidades visuais dessas instituições. Buscou-se também entender como tais identidades se relacionam com os preceitos filosóficos desta pedagogia específica. Nas pesquisas exploratórias realizou-se um levantamento que abordou determinadas escolas particulares na cidade de São Paulo, de modo a se compreender o contexto em que as escolas Waldorf se inserem: um universo que apresenta variedade e exuberância de estilos gráficos. Para esta compreensão, foi necessário classificar estas escolas com critérios relacionados à sua modalidade de administração - escolas autônomas ou componentes de um sistema de ensino com administração central. As instituições também foram classificadas quanto a sua orientação: religiosa, comunitária, \"internacional\" e/ou bilíngue. Finalmente, as escolas foram classificadas quanto à orientação pedagógica/filosófica. Foram feitas então pesquisas bibliográficas acerca dos conceitos e estratégias de marca, marca gráfica, identidade visual e sistemas de identidade visual, como também das teorias que tratam da pedagogia Waldorf e da Antroposofia, um movimento filosófico, criado por Rudolf Steiner, no início do século XX, do qual esta pedagogia é uma aplicação prática. Esta pesquisa é um estudo de casos múltiplos, por envolver várias escolas independentes. Para a constatação das manifestações visuais, foram feitas pesquisas de campo com registros fotográficos em cinco escolas Waldorf, selecionadas na cidade de São Paulo: Escola Waldorf Rudolf Steiner, Colégio Waldorf Micael, Escola Waldorf Francisco de Assis, Escola Waldorf São Paulo e Escola de Resiliência Horizonte Azul. Para a compreensão da relação dessas manifestações visuais com os preceitos filosóficos desta pedagogia, foram realizadas entrevistas com pessoas ligadas à pedagogia Waldorf e à Antroposofia. Este estudo concluiu que muitas escolas desta pedagogia fazem uso de tipografias características da Antroposofia em suas marcas gráficas e que algumas estão instaladas em edifícios, cuja arquitetura é característica da Antroposofia. No entanto, mesmo sem esses elementos identitários da pedagogia Waldorf, as manifestações visuais originadas dos seus preceitos filosóficos ajudam a construir uma identidade visual muito particular, em um processo natural e espontâneo. The visual identity of the Waldorf schools, which are independent units from each other, is built in a different way from that seen in other schools. They have series of spontaneous visual manifestations that make them be recognized as parts of a whole. This qualitative research tries to understand what these visual manifestations are and how they help in the construction of the visual identity of these institutions. It also sought to understand how such identities relate to the philosophical precepts of this specific pedagogy. The exploratory research carried out a survey that addressed certain private schools in the city of São Paulo, in order to understand the context in which the Waldorf schools are included: a universe that has variety and exuberance of graphic styles. For this understanding, it was necessary to classify these schools within criteria related to their administration mode - autonomous schools or components of an education system with central administration. These institutions were also classified according to their orientation: religious, community, \"international\" and / or bilingual. Finally, the schools were classified by educational / philosophical orientation. Then, literature researches were conducted about the concepts and the strategies of brand, graphic brand, visual identity and branding systems, as well as the theories related to Waldorf education and Anthroposophy, a philosophical movement created by Rudolf Steiner at the beginning of the 20th century, of which this pedagogy is a practical application. This research is a study of multiple cases because it involves several independent schools. To verify the visual manifestations, on site researches with photographic records were taken in five Waldorf schools selected in São Paulo city: Escola Waldorf Rudolf Steiner, Colégio Waldorf Michael, Escola Waldorf Francisco de Assis, Escola Waldorf São Paulo and Escola de Resiliência Horizonte Azul. To understand the relationship of these visual manifestations with the philosophical precepts of this pedagogy, interviews were conducted with people connected to the Waldorf education and Anthroposophy. This study found that many schools of this pedagogy make use of type fonts that are characteristic of Anthroposophy in their graphic brands and some are lodged at buildings which architecture is characteristic of Anthroposophy. However, even without these identifying elements of Waldorf education, visual manifestations originating from its philosophical precepts help build a very particular visual identity, in a natural and spontaneous process.

Assim, o presente estudo vem investigar escolas que apresentam pedagogias de ensino diferenciadas, mas que se sustentam em propostas que têm como objetivo o ensino para todos. Sob o âmbito do Ensino de Química, o objetivo deste estudo foi investigar como o saber químico é trabalhado no Ensino Fundamental em uma Escola Waldorf, uma Escola Montessori e na Escola da Ponte. Buscamos ainda como os alunos dessas três instituições compreendem a Química nas suas relações interdisciplinares e possíveis aplicações na sociedade. Os ambientes de pesquisa foram a Escola Paineiras Waldorf, localizada na cidade de Juiz de Fora, MG, a Escola Montessori Meimei localizada na cidade do Rio de Janeiro, RJ, e a Escola da Ponte, localizada em São Tomé de Negrelos, Portugal. Os sujeitos desta pesquisa foram alunos do Ensino Fundamental dessas três instituições e seus professores de Química. Para a construção dos dados, foram utilizados como instrumentos de pesquisa a observação e a entrevista semiestruturada. Foram observados os três espaços escolares como um todo, os materiais produzidos pelos alunos investigados e as aulas de Química, nas escolas em que haviam esse formato de ensino. Todas as observações foram compiladas em diário de campo e os materiais foram registrados por fotografia. Na Escola Paineiras Waldorf, as aulas ainda foram gravadas em áudio. Entrevistas foram realizada com alunos e professores, sendo todas gravadas em áudio e, posteriormente, transcritas. Para tratamento e análise dos dados utilizamos a Análise de Conteúdo. Nas três instituições, os resultados apontaram estratégias de ensino que contribuem para a formação cidadã, favorecendo que os alunos se tornem mais autônomos e críticos. A Escola da Ponte e a Montessori se destacaram por apresentarem formas de organização escolar diferenciadas. No caso da Escola da Ponte, vale destacar o uso de assembleias e do processo de auto avaliação. Especificamente sobre o ensino de Química, a Escola Waldorf se destacou por trazer uma metodologia de ensino mais diferenciada, com um currículo estruturado em eixos temáticos, com valorização da contextualização e da interdisciplinaridade, focado na experimentação e na observação com ênfase nos sentidos. Na Escola da Ponte e na Escola Montessori notamos um ensino de Química ainda preso ao currículo tradicional, com ênfase no conteúdo e pouca contextualização. Em virtude disso, os alunos da Escola Waldorf demonstraram estabelecer melhores relações do conteúdo químico com questões da sociedade e de outras disciplinas, o que não se fez tão presente entre os alunos da Escola da Ponte e da Escola Montessori. Este estudo tornou-se mais significativo à medida que possibilitou discussões sobre temáticas ainda pouco familiares ao contexto das pesquisas educacionais e do próprio cotidiano dos professores em geral. Além disso, foi possível salientar aspectos notáveis das três propostas pedagógicas, proporcionando ricas discussões no âmbito da Educação Básica. A school that seeks to establish a differentiated pedagogy, whose trajectory breaks with the massive annual curricula and respects the individuality of the students in their learning course, deserves and demands all of the attention from the educators of the 21st century. Thus, the present study investigates schools that present differentiated teaching pedagogy and that, therefore, are based on a teaching proposal for everyone. Under the scope of the Teaching of Chemistry, the objective of this study is to investigate how the knowledge of Chemistry is worked in Elementary School in three schools: one whose teaching methods are based on Waldorf Education, one based on the Montessori method, and the ‘Escola da Ponte’; and how the students of these three institutions understand chemistry in their interdisciplinary relationships and application in society. The school where the research took place were the Paineira Waldorf School, located in the city of Juiz de Fora, MG, the Montessori Meimei School, located in the city of Rio de Janeiro, RJ, and the ‘Escola da Ponte’, located in São Tomé de Negrelos, Portugal. The subjects were primary school students from the three institutions investigated and their Chemistry teachers. The research tools used to gather data were observation and the semistructured interview. The three school spaces were studied as a whole, as well as the materials produced by the subjects, and the chemistry in the schools that had classes as a teaching method. All observations were compiled in a field diary, the materials were recorded by means of photography and, at the Paineira Waldorf School, classes were also recorded in audio. The interview was conducted with students and teachers, all recorded in audio and later transcribed. Content Analysis was used to handle the data. The results point out that the three institutions have an education method which contributes to the formation of citizens, with more autonomous and critical students. The ‘Escola da Ponte’ and the Montessori schools stood out for their differentiated organization, besides the assembly and the process of self-evaluation carried out at the former. Specifically on the teaching of Chemistry, the Waldorf School excelled in bringing a more differentiated teaching, with their curriculum being structured in thematic axes, valuing contextualization and interdisciplinarity, besides focused on experimentation and observation, with an emphasis on the senses. However, at the ‘Escola da Ponte’ and at the Montessori schools, the teaching of Chemistry is still attached to the traditional curriculum, with an emphasis on content and poor contextualization. As a result, the Waldorf School students demonstrated a greater relationship between the contents taught with society and other subjects, which was not so prevalent in the students at the ‘Escola da Ponte’ and Montessori school. This study is significant in the extent that it has brought about discussions about themes which are still unfamiliar to the context of educational research and the daily life of teachers in general. In addition, it was possible to emphasize remarkable aspects of the three teaching methods that can be considered in Brazilian schools, providing rich discussions for the scope of Basic Education.

Abstract:

Juhani Pallasmaa writes, "We have the mental need to experience the reality that we are rooted in the continuity of time and in the man-made world, it is the task of architecture to facilitate this experience." (Eyes of the Skin: Architecture and the Senses, p. 22) It is the intent of this thesis to investigate how to facilitate this experience through conscious perception and active participation in the changes that occur in a building over the course of a day and through environmental cycles. Participating, both physically and mentally, in the changes that occur around and within the built environment create a dynamic and engaging environment that allows people to further their enjoyment and delight in being in the space. This thesis investigates these ideas through the programmatic elements and educational ideas of The Washington Waldorf School and the site conditions of a "transition site" between Rock Creek Park and the Woodly Park area of Washington DC.

Abstract:

The purpose of this case study is to investigate Waldorf pedagogy. In particular, it investigates how assessment of productive language skills, speaking and writing, is carried out at a Waldorf School. To this end, semi-structured interviews were conducted at a compulsory school. One in-depth teacher interview was held and one group interview with four students. Participants were observed in their natural classroom setting on a few occasions. The results indicate that how assessment is carried out depends on the class, situation and the task performed by students. There is a tendency to assess speaking on an individual level or in smaller groups. Findings indicate that personal texts written by students are somewhat more assessed and that communicative ability in general is more valued than accuracy. This study demonstrates that decisions are made when assessing different skills, where the teacher decides on what as well as how to assess. Focus on form/grammar has a role in assessment since distinctions are made between mistakes. Students have an informal yet clear understanding of how they are being assessed. In this Waldorf School we see that different educational techniques were employed by the teacher. For instance, different types of assessment were used. Discrimination of minor errors and those that interfere with communication were part of assessment sometimes. This study also shows that different parts of language were assessed and that the process of learning was given priority and therefore part of assessment.

Abstract:

Atualmente inúmeros estudos têm abordado diversos elementos ligados ao ensino de Geografia. Porém, ainda são poucos os trabalhos realizados no meio acadêmico, que tratam a disciplina de Geografia a partir de uma perspectiva holística de ensino, que insere a dimensão espiritual à prática educacional, abordando a busca de significado e de propósito no mundo. Dentro da linha holística, encontra-se a Pedagogia Waldorf fundamentada na Antroposofia de Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925). Considerando a necessidade atual de reestruturação do ensino e a busca por um currículo mais integrado, este trabalho tem como proposta investigar as características do ensino fundamental de Geografia desenvolvido em uma escola Waldorf, fundamentado na Antroposofia, através de um estudo aprofundado da metodologia e de seus fundamentos. Currently innumerable studies have boarded diverse on elements to the education of Geography. However, still are few works carried through in half academic, that they treat disciplines it of Geography from a holistic perspective of education, that inserts the dimension spiritual to practical the educational one, approaching the search of meaning and intention in the world. Inside of the holistic line, it meets Waldorf Education based on the Rudolf Steiner´s Anthroposophy (1861-1925). Considering the current necessity of reorganization of education and the search for an integrated resume more, this work has as proposal to investigate the characteristics of the basic education of Geography developed in a Waldorf school, based on the Antroposophy, through a deepened study of the methodology and of its beddings.

Abstract:

O presente estudo se destina a pensar como o cuidado é performado nas práticas realizadas numa escola que segue a proposta da Pedadogia Waldorf, partindo da orientação teórico-metodológica da Teoria Ator-rede (TAR). A proposta é repensar esse espaço através das relações de cuidado que são estabelecidas nas práticas, especialmente através do vínculo que se dá na ação professor / aluno. Percebe-se que os alunos são aqueles os quais se deve conduzir e os professores, aqueles que devem conduzi-los, muitas vezes sem saber ao certo a utilidade do estão ensinando. Mol (2006) propõe que o cuidado tem uma Lógica própria, intitulada por ela como Lógica do Cuidado. Esta se contrapõe à Lógica da Escolha, a qual retrata o cuidado sendo estabelecido por um especialista que indica o que deve ou não ser feito, cabendo a quem é cuidado, seguir as orientações do cuidador. No entanto, uma prática que segue a Lógica do Cuidado, parte da ideia de que, aquele que é cuidado, é tão ator quanto aquele que cuida, uma vez que aquele não é passivo em relação ao próprio cuidado ou as condições em que este se dá. Amplia-se assim a rede do cuidar, sendo considerados todos os atores que a performam, compreendendo o processo de ensino-aprendizagem enquanto um conjunto de afetações, integrando a afetividade e a cognição. O trabalho foi desenvolvido acompanhando uma escola Waldorf, para observação da rotina e de atividades onde são performadas práticas de cuidado, especialmente aquelas que seguem a Lógica do Cuidado, o que nos viabiliza pensar outro devir escola. O campo estudado contribuiu para desconstruir a forma tradicionalmente performada de cuidado, viabilizando pensar a escola enquanto um espaço que amplie as possibilidades de cuidar. The present study was designed to consider how care is performed in practice conducted in a school that follows the proposal of Pedadogia Waldorf, based on the theoretical and methodological orientation of Actor-Network Theory (ART). The proposal is to rethink this space through care relationships that are established in practices, especially through the link that takes action on teacher / student. It is noticed that the students are the ones who should lead and teachers, who should lead them, often unsure of the utility they are teaching. Mol (2006) proposes that care has a logic of its own, as she headed for Logic of Care. This opposes the Logic of Choice, which portrays the care being provided by a specialist that indicates what should or should not be done, being who is careful to follow the guidelines of the caregiver. However, a practice that follows the logic of Care, part of the idea that one who is so careful is actor as one who cares, since he is not passive about their own care or the conditions under which this occurs. Thus expands network of caring, all of the actors being considered that perform this network, comprising the teaching-learning as a set of affectations, integrating affectivity and cognition. The study was conducted following a Waldorf school for observation and routine activities which are performed care practices, especially those who follow the logic of Care, which enables us to think becoming another school. The field study helped to deconstruct the form traditionally care performed, enabling think the school as a space that expands the possibilities of caring.

Abstract:

Thesis (MEd)--University of Stellenbosch, 2005. ENGLISH ABSTRACT: The facilitation of human rights values might be considered a means to rethink and redefine values education in South Africa. This study aimed at determining how human rights values were addressed in the context of independent Waldorf Education and government initiated outcomes-based education in South Africa, and how educators facilitated these values in various circumstances. In exploring the philosophies, theories and practices of these education models against the background of paradigmatic and post-paradigmatic philosophies in support of the socially constructive curriculum theory, important notions were highlighted that have preceded, and might follow, the facilitation of human rights values. The epistemologies, ontologies and methodologies of the emancipatory paradigm and postparadigmatic framework appeared to provide appropriate philosophical departure points regarding the facilitation of human rights values. This study anticipated the theoretical clarification of the concept human rights values and included a discussion on the importance of these values in various school contexts. Values identified from the Manifesto on Values, Education and Democracy (2001), that were also present in the Curriculum: Waldorf Schools in South Africa (1995), were discussed as possible human rights values. Empirical research was conducted to explore how human rights values were attended to in good practice scenarios in order to provide insight into the questions posed regarding the facilitation of human rights values. Through systematic ethnographic observations and semi-structured interviews it appeared that in both school contexts human rights values were more frequently addressed in incidental situations than in formal curriculum contents. This is interesting seeing that the outcomes-based education model has a number of documents to guide the facilitation of human rights values within formal curriculum contents, whereas the Waldorf approach has no such supportive documents. One might question the value and influence of numerous documents if basic knowledge that is required for the meaningful interpretation of such documents is not communicated from the outset. Moreover, it became evident that since Waldorf educators are adequately trained in Anthroposophy, the philosophy to which Waldorf schools adhere, they deal with curriculum matters such as socially constructing a curriculum more effectively. The training of outcomes-based education educators can be questioned regarding the philosophy, theory and methodology of outcomes-based education in view of the hasty implementation of this new model for government schools. As a result of this hurried process, educators of outcomes-based education are experiencing numerous uncertainties when they have to manage curriculum matters such as socially constructing a curriculum. Recommendations and related examples were provided after the completion of the study. This included, among others, the notions of dialogically facilitating human rights values to promote learners' understanding of their rights, and the rights of others; to transform incidental facilitation of human rights values into worthwhile teaching-learning experiences; to use human resources - including learners - to convey human rights values; and to focus educators' training (both in-service and pre-service) toward the inclusion of human rights values and promoting an understanding of socially constructing a curriculum. The study was concluded with the remark that human rights values might be an appropriate means to redefine values education, provided that the facilitation of human rights values are based on suitable theoretical and philosophical premises; and that those held responsible to facilitate such values are assisted in this task. AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die fasilitering van menseregte-waardes kan beskou word as 'n wyse om waarde-opvoeding in Suid-Afrika opnuut te deurdink en te herdefinieer. Hierdie studie het ten doel gehad om vas te stel hoe menseregte-waardes in onafhanklike Waldorf Onderwys en staatsgeïnisieerde uitkomsgebaseerde onderwyskontekste in Suid-Afrika aangespreek word, en ook hoe dit in die praktyk gefasiliteer word. Die verkenning van teorieë, filosofieë en praktyke aangaande die twee opvoedingsrnodelle teen die agtergrond van paradigmatiese en post-paradigmatiese filosofieë, ter ondersteuning van kurrikulumteorie, het kardinale aspekte wat die fasilitering voorafgegaan het, en moontlik tot gevolg kan hê, uitgelig. die sosiaal-konstruktiewe van menseregte-waardes Dit kom voor asof die epistemologieë, ontologieë en metodologieë onderliggend aan die emansipatoriese paradigma en die post-paradigmatiese raamwerk 'n genoegsame filosofiese aanvangspunt bied met betrekking tot die fasilitering van menseregte-waardes. In die studie is die konsep menseregte-waardes konseptueel-teoreties verklaar. Dit het ook 'n bespreking oor die belangrikheid van hierdie waardes in verskeie skoolkontekste ingesluit. Waardes geïdentifiseer uit die Onderwysrnanifes oor Waardes en Demokrasie in die Onderwys (Manifesto on Values, Education and Democracy, 2001) wat ook sigbaar was in die Waldorf-kurrikulumdokument (Curriculum: Waldorf Schools in South Africa, 1995), is bespreek as moontlike menseregte-waardes. Empiriese navorsing is onderneem om die wyse waarop menseregte-waardes in goeie praktyk-scenarios aangespreek word te verken ten einde nuwe insig te verkry rakende die fasilitering van menseregte-waardes. Deur die sistematies-etnografiese waarnemings en semi-gestruktureerde onderhoude het dit voorgekom dat menseregte-waardes in beide skoolkontekste meestal in toevallige situasies aangespreek word, eerder as deel van formele kurrikuluminhoude. Dit is interessant, gegewe die feit dat die uitkomsgebaseerde opvoedingsmodel heelwat dokumente beskikbaar gestel het om die fasilitering van menseregte-waardes te rig, terwyl die Waldorf-benadering geen ondersteunende dokumentasie in dié verband bied nie. Mens kan tereg vra wat die waarde en invloed van sulke dokumente is as basiese kennis, wat nodig is om hierdie dokumente betekenisvol te interpreteer, nie eerste oorgedra word nie. Dit het ook gelyk asof Waldorf-onderwysers beter met kurrikulumverwante sake, soos die sosiale konstruering van 'n kurrikulum, omgaan weens hul goeie opleiding betreffende Antroposofie, die filosofie wat Waldorf-onderwys onderlê. Opvoeders in uitkomsgebaseerde onderwys se opleiding in die teorie, filosofie en metodologie van die onderwysmodel, wat beïnvloed is deur die haastige implementering van die nuwe model in staatskole, kan bevraagteken word. Laasgenoemde aspek blyk onsekerhede te veroorsaak wanneer hierdie onderwysers kurrikulumverwante sake, soos die sosiale konstruering van 'n kurrikulum, moet hanteer. Ná afloop van die studie is sekere aanbevelings en verwante voorbeelde gegee. Dit het onder meer die volgende ingesluit: dat dialoog na 'n wenslike fasiliteringstrategie lyk in die bevordering van leerders se begrip van hul regte, asook dié van andere; dat situasies waartydens menseregte-waardes toevallig aangespreek word omskep kan word in waardevolle onderrig-Ieerervaringe; dat menslike hulpbronne - insluitende leerders - gebruik kan word om menseregte-waardes oor te dra; en dat onderwysersopleiding (beide indiens en voordiens ) op die insluiting van menseregte-waardes en die bevordering van begrip vir die sosiale konstruering van 'n kurrikulum moet fokus. Die studie is afgesluit met die opmerking dat menseregte-waardes tot die herdefiniëring van waarde-opvoeding mag bydra, gegewe dat dit op gepaste teoretiese en filosofiese begrondinge gebaseer is, en dat diegene wat verantwoordelik gehou word vir die fasilitering van sulke waardes, die nodige ondersteuning in dié verband sal kry.

Para Piaget a essência de toda moralidade deve ser procurada no respeito que o indivíduo adquire pelas regras. O objetivo do nosso trabalho é procurar identificar e analisar o papel da generosidade como componente do desenvolvimento moral nos anos iniciais do ensino fundamental em uma escola Waldorf. Como objetivos específicos observamos e coletamos dados onde expressões de generosidade entre os alunos e entre esses e os professores ocorreram. A pesquisa foi realizada numa escola Waldorf, razão pela qual apresentamos os principais aspectos da Pedagogia Waldorf e em particular da escola onde a mesma ocorreu. Como embasamento teórico principal adotamos a teoria do desenvolvimento do juízo moral de Jean Piaget (1932). A pesquisa que apresentamos é de abordagem qualitativa, não se preocupando com representatividades numéricas, mas com o aprofundamento da compreensão de um determinado fenômeno, a saber: a expressão da generosidade em uma escola Waldorf. Foram participantes da pesquisa alunos dos três primeiros anos do ensino fundamental, entre 06 a 08 anos, de ambos os sexos. Também participaram os pais dos referidos alunos (pai ou mãe), num total de 30 pais de um total de 90 alunos, configurando 30% da totalidade. Participaram, ainda, 03 professores de classe1 , 01 de Língua Inglesa, 01 de música e 01 de trabalhos manuais. Os resultados demonstram que para os pais o desenvolvimento moral dos filhos é de extrema importância, que a generosidade está presente nas relações sociais das crianças no cotidiano escolar, nos ambientes livres ou nas atividades promovidas pelos professores, e que os professores conhecem o significado da generosidade e que as estimulam por intermédio das suas atividades. Como produto final da dissertação, elaboramos um livro, no qual apresentaremos atividades didáticas que demonstram o exercício da generosidade na práxis docente de uma escola Waldorf. The development of moral judgment in the child is the focus of our research. For Piaget the essence of all morality must be sought in the respect that the individual acquires by the rules. The purpose of our work is to identify and analyze the role of generosity as a component of moral development in the early years of elementary school in a Waldorf school. As specific objectives we observed and collected data where expressions of generosity between students and between students and teachers occurred. The research was conducted at a Waldorf school, which is why we present the main aspects of Waldorf Education and in particular the school where it occurred. As the main theoretical basis we adopt the moral development theory of Jean Piaget (1932). The research we present is qualitative approach, not worrying about numerical representativities, but with the deepening of the understanding of a certain phenomenon, namely: the expression of generosity in a Waldorf school. Students of the first three years of elementary school, between 06 and 08 years old, of both sexes were participants of the research. The parents of these students (father or mother) also participated in a total of 30 parents out of a total of 90 students, making up 30% of the total. There were also 03 class teachers2 , 01 of English Language, 01 of music and 01 of manual works. The results show that for parents the moral development of children is of the utmost importance, that generosity is present in children's social relations in daily school life, in free environments or in the activities promoted by teachers, and that teachers know the meaning of generosity and that stimulate them through their activities. As the final product of the dissertation, we elaborated a book, in which we will present didactic activities that demonstrate the exercise of generosity in the teaching praxis of a Waldorf school. Keywords: Moral Development; Generosity; Waldorf School.

I detta arbete jämför jag Waldorf (muntlig undervisning och eurytmi), Montessori (ser barnet i dess egen utveckling) och förhållningssättet inlärningsstilar (individanpassat klassrum för maximal inlärning). Syftet med arbetet är att beskriva metoderna och att jämföra likheter och skillnader. Arbetet är indelat i; en inledande del där jag beskriver syfte, metod och ger en bakgrund till varför jag valt detta ämne, en litteraturdel där jag går igenom de tre metoderna Waldorf, Montessori och inlärningsstilar samt deras syn på den lärande eleven och dess miljö, min egen erfarenhet där jag berättar om hur jag använt och kommit i kontakt med dessa metoder, en undersökning där jag jämför åtta klassers inlärningspreferenser med varandra och därefter presenterar jag min slutdiskussion. Min hypotes när jag började detta arbete var att stökiga klasser har en majoritet av kinestetiskt/taktila elever och att dessa kan bli hjälpta av programmet inlärningsstilar. Min hypotes gick inte att bevisa genom detta arbete.

Abstract:

Denna studie behandlar en alternativ pedagogik och belyser ett alternativt arbetsätt till den kommunala skolan. Den pedagogik som behandlas är waldorfpedagogiken och den avhandlas allmänt och med en enskild del som är riktad mot waldorfskolans sätt att arbeta med matematikundervisningen i de lägre åldrarna. Waldorfskolans bakgrund och tankar beskrivs och även dess metodik och undervisningsinnehåll. En djupare studie i en alternativ pedagogik kan utveckla synen på undervisningsmetoder och få tips på hur man kan lägga upp undervisningen. Ett annat syfte är att skapa en förståelse varför waldorfpedagogerna arbetar som dom gör. Data har samlats in genom en litteraturstudie, ett antal observationstillfällen på en waldorfinspirerad friskola och två intervjuer. De data som framkommit ur detta har sedan bearbetats och analyserats. Resultatet visar hur waldorfskolan arbetar mot hela människan och att en syn på barnets utveckling är avgörande för hur och i vilken ordning ämnen tas upp i skolan. Periodundervisning är karaktäristiskt för waldorfskolan och innebär att man läser ett ämne i taget under dagens första två timmar, i cirka tre veckors tid. Waldorfskolan skiljer tydligt på matematik och räkning. Matematik innebär att man måste ha en förståelse för vad man gör och räkningen är en hjälp på vägen till svaret. Hjälpmedel som används i matematikundervisningen är mycket från naturen som till exempel kottar och kastanjer och eleverna får själva hjälpas åt att samla in dessa. Miniräknare och datorer används aldrig i de lägre åldrarna då de inte anses vara till hjälp för barnens förståelse för ämnet. Geometrin har en stark ställning och bygger på formteckning, som tillsammans med eurytmi är inslag i undervisningen som är speciella för waldorfskolan.

Abstract:

La présente thèse montre que dans les situations instructionnelles, il est possible de rencontrer un axe de significations qui, jusqu'à aujourd'hui a été peu étudié : la dimension artistique de l'enseignement. En premier, les concepts liés à l'enseignement sont présentés dans la thèse (curriculum, pédagogie, instruction, didactique). Ensuite nous montrons les relations développées tout au long de l'histoire de la pédagogie en référence à l'art de l'enseignement, mettant un accent particulier sur les concepts liés à l'art (la techné, le beau, l'esthétique). Cette présentation nous est utile dans le seul but de montrer le territoire conceptuel sur lequel se développe cette thèse. Les procédures et les instruments d'investigation utilisés sont de type qualitatif : l'observation participante périphérique, l'entretien semi-structuré, et le registre descriptif. Nous avons choisi la pédagogie Waldorf parce qu'elle considère depuis 1919 l'enseignement comme un art et le maître comme un artiste. Les écoles appliquant cette pédagogie sont devenues un lieu privilégié pour l'observation de la dimension artistique dans l'enseignement. Cette recherche a été effectuée dans trois écoles de trois pays européens différents pendant l'année scolaire 2000-2001. Seul le cours principal du matin dans les sept premières classes a été observé. Cette recherche révèle qu'il existe une finalité explicite dans ce curriculum, comme procédure générale servant d'appui au maître pour son enseignement, mais en aucune façon comme prescription contraignante. Le développement des capacités esthétiques du maître passe nécessairement par la pratique d'arts divers, celle-ci l'aidant à affiner son observation de la nature humaine qui constitue le substrat sur lequel il agit. Le procédé général employé par le maître est inspiré par les concepts de Rythme, d'Unité, d'Harmonie et de Proportion.

Orientador: Luciana Maria Lunardi Campos Banca: Alessandra Aparecida Viveiro Banca: Fernando Bastos Resumo: O presente trabalho visou identificar e analisar características do Ensino de Ciências no âmbito da Pedagogia Waldorf. A Pedagogia Waldorf, criada em 1919, na Alemanha, por Rudolf Steiner, está presente no mundo todo. Baseada na antroposofia, possui uma estratégia pedagógica que inclui o desenvolvimento físico, psicoemocional e espiritual do aluno. Dentre suas características estão o ensino em épocas (ensino concentrado de 4 a 6 semanas), a forte presença das artes e um processo cognitivo descrito por Goethe, que trata da observação de um fenômeno até que se chegue em sua essência. Foram realizadas entrevistas com seis professores, de cinco escolas, observadas aulas de ciências em duas escolas Waldorf, de São Paulo e de um município da região de São Paulo. Foram analisados documentos como periódicos de encontros de formação continuada em Pedagogia Waldorf e compilações curriculares. Os dados obtidos foram organizados em onze eixos e foi utilizada a análise de conteúdo proposta por Bardin. Este estudo traz uma discussão sobre os objetivos de Rudolf Steiner ao pensar a Pedagogia para o Ensino de Ciências. Os resultados obtidos evidenciam que a Pedagogia Waldorf tem como principal base de estruturação para o Ensino de Ciências a fenomenologia goetheanística, principalmente por não desvencilhar os fenômenos naturais de um mundo espiritual e desta forma, através das práticas de observação o aluno, de maneira inconsciente, compreenda a relação entre o mundo materi...

Waldorf Education, established in 1919 in Germany by Rudolf Steiner, is present worldwide. Based on anthroposophy, it has a pedagogical strategy that includes physical, psychoemotional and spiritual development of the student. Among its features are seasonal teaching (concentrated teaching between 4 to 6 weeks), the strong presence of the arts and a cognitive process described by Goethe, which deals with the observation of a phenomenon until it arrives at its core. Six interviews with teachers were conduct in five schools, science classes observed in two Waldorf Schools, being from São Paulo and from a municipality in the São Paulo region. Documents such as periodic meetings of continuing education in Waldorf Pedagogy and curriculum builds were analyzed. The captured data was organized in eleven axes and the content analysis proposed by Bardin was used. This study provides a discussion about the Rudolf Steiner goals when applying pedagogy for the Science Teaching. The results show that Waldorf's Pedagogy m ain base of structure for Science Education is the goetheanístic phenomenology, especially for not disentangling the natural phenomena of a spiritual world and thus, through the observation practices, the student unconsciously understand the relationship between the material and spiritual world. It is yet to expect that the student will be able to re... (Complete abstract click electronic access below) Mestre

A Pedagogia Waldorf, criada em 1919, na Alemanha, por Rudolf Steiner, está presente no mundo todo. Baseada na antroposofia, possui uma estratégia pedagógica que inclui o desenvolvimento físico, psicoemocional e espiritual do aluno. Dentre suas características estão o ensino em épocas (ensino concentrado de 4 a 6 semanas), a forte presença das artes e um processo cognitivo descrito por Goethe, que trata da observação de um fenômeno até que se chegue em sua essência. Foram realizadas entrevistas com seis professores, de cinco escolas, observadas aulas de ciências em duas escolas Waldorf, de São Paulo e de um município da região de São Paulo. Foram analisados documentos como periódicos de encontros de formação continuada em Pedagogia Waldorf e compilações curriculares. Os dados obtidos foram organizados em onze eixos e foi utilizada a análise de conteúdo proposta por Bardin. Este estudo traz uma discussão sobre os objetivos de Rudolf Steiner ao pensar a Pedagogia para o Ensino de Ciências. Os resultados obtidos evidenciam que a Pedagogia Waldorf tem como principal base de estruturação para o Ensino de Ciências a fenomenologia goetheanística, principalmente por não desvencilhar os fenômenos naturais de um mundo espiritual e desta forma, através das práticas de observação o aluno, de maneira inconsciente, compreenda a relação entre o mundo material e espiritual. Ainda espera-se que o aluno seja capaz de reconhecer no mundo natural e em sua vida cotidiana a essência dos fenômenos. A Pedagogia Waldorf adota práticas que incentivam ações humanitárias para que surja no jovem e consequentemente no adulto o impulso de intervir e transformar a realidade social e tem como meta final e longínqua uma sociedade baseada na trimembração social, na qual haja liberdade espiritual, igualdade de direitos e fraternidade econômica. Foi observado também que o Ensino Waldorf tem características interdisciplinares e transdisciplinares. Ainda Educação Waldorf também possui como objetivo o desenvolvimento das capacidades do ser humano, nos âmbitos cognitivo, espiritual, emocional e artístico, como também o estimulo da criatividade, iniciativa e autoconfiança. This study address to identify and analyze the characteristics of Sciences under the Waldorf Pedagogy Scope. Waldorf Education, established in 1919 in Germany by Rudolf Steiner, is present worldwide. Based on anthroposophy, it has a pedagogical strategy that includes physical, psychoemotional and spiritual development of the student. Among its features are seasonal teaching (concentrated teaching between 4 to 6 weeks), the strong presence of the arts and a cognitive process described by Goethe, which deals with the observation of a phenomenon until it arrives at its core. Six interviews with teachers were conduct in five schools, science classes observed in two Waldorf Schools, being from São Paulo and from a municipality in the São Paulo region. Documents such as periodic meetings of continuing education in Waldorf Pedagogy and curriculum builds were analyzed. The captured data was organized in eleven axes and the content analysis proposed by Bardin was used. This study provides a discussion about the Rudolf Steiner goals when applying pedagogy for the Science Teaching. The results show that Waldorf's Pedagogy m ain base of structure for Science Education is the goetheanístic phenomenology, especially for not disentangling the natural phenomena of a spiritual world and thus, through the observation practices, the student unconsciously understand the relationship between the material and spiritual world. It is yet to expect that the student will be able to recognize in the natural world and in his everyday life the essence of phenomena. Waldorf Education adopts practices that encourage humanitarian actions hoping to arise in the young and consequently in the adult an impulse to intervene and transform the social reality, and has as the ultimate and faraway goal a society based on social threefolding, in which there is spiritual freedom, equal rights and economic fraternity. Was also observed that the Waldorf education has interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary characteristics. Waldorf Education also has the objective of developing the capabilities of the human being, in the cognitive, spiritual, emotional and artistic fields, as well as the stimulation of creativity, initiative and self-confidence.

Abstract:

O trabalho escolar realizado na escola Waldorf com a Matemática tem na percepção sensorial seu ponto de partida. Esta dissertação pretende investigar o papel que essa disciplina desempenha, quando trabalhada sob este viés, na formação do indivíduo. Pressupõe que o autoconhecimento, advindo do amadurecimento sensorial chegando à condição de abstração e liberdade que transcende as âncoras sensoriais, permite instrumentalizar a criança e o jovem conduzindo-os à assunção da condição humana. Parte de uma revisão bibliográfica acerca da sensorialidade humana sob a perspectiva da antroposofia, aponta as etapas do desenvolvimento cognitivo humano, e percorre o desenrolar do currículo da Matemática nas escolas Waldorf, interrelacionando-os e culminando em uma reflexão sobre o tema, desvendando a relação subjacente entre o aprendizado da matemática e a formação do indivíduo. The work with Mathematics in a Steiner School has as its starting point the sensorial perception. This dissertation will investigate the role that this subject has, when worked on such a way, on the constitution of the human being as an individual. It assumes that self knowledge, which comes from sensory maturing, reaches a condition of abstraction and freedom that transcends sensory anchors, providing tools and allowing the child to assume his/her human condition. The present assumption will be revealed through literature review on human sensory organism under the perspective of anthroposophy, study of the human cognitive development stages, and presentation of the mathematics curriculum in Waldorf schools. This analysis will show the underlying relationship between the learning of Mathematics in a Steiner School and the human process of self construction.

Abstract:

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior A presente pesquisa foi produzida num Jardim de Infância Waldorf no Rio de Janeiro e se propôs a um exercício de tradução, com o uso do dispositivo TeAR, que aliava o trabalho etnográfico no cotidiano escolar, aos elementos da tecelagem como artesania e ao modo de pesquisar da Teoria Ator-Rede (TAR). Entre as questões que emergiram ao longo do processo, podemos destacar: a com-vivência como prática educativa no encontro com a diferença, que vinculou-se ao método de PesquisarCOM da TAR, proposto pela psicóloga Marcia Moraes; uma maneira de aprender com os mal-entendidos, refazendo nossa maneira de interpelar o outro quando este recalcitra; incluindo humanos e não-humanos, sem domínios ou separações hierarquizantes; conhecendo com e não sobre o outro. Por outro lado, ao entendermos o conhecimento como processo de criação de si e do mundo, a produção de conhecimento na com-vivência fez emergir, como efeito das práticas de limite e recalcitrância, a diferenciação e singularização dos agentes, possibilitando a criação de novos limites e invenções. Assim, na afetação da experiência, chegamos à negociação dos interesses singulares e coletivos, na qual planos comuns e heterogêneos foram-se tecendo, de modo que as múltiplas possibilidades de vínculos aumentavam a potência de agir. Pensar com Latour que quando estamos mais vinculados, somos mais livres nos convida a experimentar novas formas de viver coletivamente, inventando a si de maneira vinculada e ao mesmo tempo proliferando modos de existir. Durante essa pesquisa, fiamos com as práticas do campo e tecemos versões de Educação Infantil na Pedagogia Waldorf cujos vínculos estão em movimento, constituindo uma ética na com-vivência This research was made in a Waldorf kindergarten in Rio de Janeiro and had the intension of being a translation practice with the use of TeAR device that combined the ethnographic work in everyday school life, with the elements of weaving as craftsmanship and with the researching ways of the Actor Network Theory (ANT). Among the issues that emerged throughout the process, we can highlight: The " living together with-experience" as an educational practice in the encounter with the difference, linked to the ResearchWITH method of ANT proposed by psychologist Marcia Moraes; a way to learn from misunderstandings, remaking the way we challenged each other when this recalcitrate; including human and non-human, without domination or hierarchies separations; getting to know with the other instead of about the other. On the other hand, when we understand knowledge as a process of creation of one self and of the world, the production of knowledge in the living together with-experience" emerged, as an effect of the limit and recalcitrance practices, differentiation and singling of the agents, enabling the creation of new limits and inventions. Thus, in the allocation of experience, we come to the negotiation of individual and collective interests, in which common and heterogeneous plans were up weaving, so that the multiple possibilities of bonds increased the potency of acting. Thinking with Latour that the more linked we are the freer we are and that invites us to experience new ways of living together, inventing one self in a bound way while at the same time proliferating existing modes. During this research, we spin the field practices and we weaved versions of Early Childhood Education in Waldorf whose links are on the move composing an ethics within the living together with-experience

Abstract:

Jag har i min uppsats undersökt hur förskoleklassens verksamhet jobbar skolförberedande utifrån lek genom observationer av förskoleklasser på kommunala skolor och Waldorfskolor. Jag har också samtalat med pedagoger i dessa förskoleklasser och genom dessa samtal med pedagogerna kommit fram till hur de ser på sin verksamhet gällande lek och vart de lägger sin fokus, vilka föreställningar de har om lek och hur de använder sig av denna i skolförberedande syfte. Min insamlade empiri analyserades utifrån vald teori och tidigare forskning. Genom analys av observationerna har jag kunnat se om pedagogernas syn på sin verksamhet besvarat de frågeställningar jag har. Jag kunde här tydligt så både likheter och skillnader mellan de olika förskoleklassernas verksamheter. Likheter så som att pedagogerna i förskoleklasserna är ense om att barnen står i fokus vilket man förstår av deras pedagogiska kunskap som kom fram under våra samtal. Men jag upptäckte också att vägen till kunskap låg på olika fokus där kommunala skolan fokuserade på kunskapen som sådan, med formella arbetspass i läroböcker medan förskoleklasser med Waldorfpedagogik var mer intresserade att få igång processer som leder till kunskap hos barnen genom att socialisera barnen genom fri lek. I have in my thesis investigated how pre-class classes works with preparing children for school from without play through observations on municipal schools and pre-class classes with pedagogy connected to Waldorf. I have also had conversations with the educators and through these conversations seen how they look upon their own area of work regarding play and where they lay their focus, what ideas they have about play and how they work play with a purpose to prepare them for school. My collected empirics was analyzed from without my chosen theory and previous research and through analyze of the observations and conversations I’ve been able to see if the educators look upon their area of work answers the I have clearly seen both comparisons and differences between the different pre-class classes. Comparisons such as the educators are united in having the child in center which I understood from their knowledge shown during our conversations. But that the road to knowledge was focused with differences. Here the municipal pre-class classes focused on knowledge as a product using textbooks while pre-class classes connected to Waldorf was focused on the process leading up to knowledge through socializing the children through free play.

Abstract:

This dissertation examines the potential congruencies and complementarities of Waldorf education, Culturally Relevant Pedagogy (CRP), Culturally Responsive Schooling (CRS), Critical Pedagogy and Native American and Indigenous education. Waldorf education, a German education reform developed in the early 1920s, is a little researched schooling system, and previous research on this reform has examined its impacts within its traditional contexts, namely, private schools. At the same time, significant literature exists which addresses the importance and efficacy of reforms for students of color such as those in CRP, CRS and Critical Pedagogy. There is also a body of work which points to key pedagogical components which support Native American/Indigenous students in school. This dissertation examines the interplay between all three of these complex systems by examining attempts to integrate them in the classroom. By examining Waldorf education initiatives in three distinct contexts, I demonstrate that these reforms can work in concert without diminishing the efficacy of any of them. I explore three distinct contexts of Waldorf education. The first examined the impacts of Waldorf education on students who participated in the reform in a private Waldorf school, who transitioned to more traditional, mainstream classes. I conducted participant-observation of a local Waldorf school and in-depth interviews with 14 alumni to explore the impact of this reform. In the second context, I examined how students responded to the use of Waldorf-inspired methods in a community college course I taught, and I investigated their experiences of the reform. Seven students who participated were interviewed in order to investigate the impact of these reforms on their experience as college students. These interviews were complemented by teacher-research I conducted while teaching this Waldorf-inspired course. Finally, I explored the potential of Waldorf education as a reform for Native American students, examining my own incorporation of this reform with other pedagogical tools, such as CRP, CRS, and other forms of critical pedagogy. Included in this section of research are my reflections on a course I instructed with Waldorf-inspired reforms. I also explored various accounts of Waldorf-education reforms by tribal communities, like the Lakota Waldorf School in South Dakota. Several findings from the research conducted here are encouraging. Students from Waldorf school environments demonstrate critical skills and critique schooling environments, invoking stances familiar to critical pedagogues. Students from a Waldorf-inspired community college course were also critical of the typical schooling experiences they had encountered, and spoke of the enriching feeling in their Waldorf-inspired course. Investigation into the philosophical tenets of Waldorf education and Native American/Indigenous epistemologies shows several examples of overlap and similarity, the most striking being elements of spiritual belief and practice as foundational to Native American/Indigenous well-being, and the ability of Waldorf education to address this. While these fields may appear unrelated, this study explores the praxis of these seemingly disparate bodies of work, by examining their similarities and differences. Ultimately, I argue that these reforms can work in concert to support the academic success of culturally and linguistically diverse students and Native American/Indigenous students in particular. The research in these three contexts demonstrates need for further investigation into Waldorf education and its potential to support students of all backgrounds.

En undersökning om leksakerna på en Reggio Emiliainspirerad förskola och en Waldorfförskola presenteras. Frågeställningen syftar till att ta reda på vilket syfte leksakerna har enligt Reggio Emiliafilosofin respektive Waldorfpedagogiken och hur pedagogernas tankar kring leksakernas syfte överensstämmer med detta. Metoden jag valt att använda för att ta reda på detta är kvalitativa intervjuer med sammanlagt åtta pedagoger på två olika förskolor samt litteraturstudier. Resultatet visar att pedagogernas tankar stämmer väl överens med Reggio Emiliafilosofin och Waldorfpedagogikens syfte men att det också finns vissa skillnader.

Den här studien är gjord för att beskriva och analysera skillnaderna och likheterna I bildpedagogiken hos den kommunala och waldorfdrivna skolan. Empirin består av två intervjuer med två rektorer tillika bildlärare i waldorfskolan och en jämförelse mellan styrdokumenten. Resultatet visar på att waldorf lägger mer tid till bild utöver bildundervisningen. This study is made to see the difference and similarities within the art teaching between the county driven schools and the waldorf schools. The first part of the material is two interviews with two principals who is teaching art in waldorf schools. The second part is a comparison of the teaching regulating documents for the both school theories. The result is showing that the waldorf schools is using more time for art teaching outside the art subject.

Abstract:

Arbetet innehåller litteraturstudier och intervjuer, både med lärare som sätter betyg och lärare som skriver personliga omdömen, om lärande och de graderade betygens påverkan på lärande. Det som bl.a. kommer fram i mitt arbete är att betyg påverkar eleverna till ett ytinriktat lärande eftersom strävan att få ett bra betyg överskuggar nöjet att lära sig och insikten om vad lärande är. Den största skillnaden mellan personliga omdömen och betyg verkar vara att omdömen ges för att hjälpa eleven till ökad självinsikt, personlig utveckling och lärande, medan betygen mer är ett mått på hur eleven tillgodogjort sig skolans undervisning. Dessutom framkommer att betyg har en negativ påverkan på självförtroendet hos de elever som har det svårt kunskapsmässigt i den typ av skola vi har idag. För de elever som däremot har lätt för sig men är lata är betygen en sporre till att studera.

Abstract:

This dissertation explores how Waldorf early childhood educators use the theories and practices embedded in Waldorf early childhood education (WECE), which are based on the psycho-spiritual-biological model of development developed by philosopher Rudolf Steiner, to help parents care for their children during their first 7 years. While there is a large body of writing on Waldorf early childhood theory and practice from within the Waldorf community, little has been written in scholarly and academic circles. Seeking to bridge this divide, 12 senior Waldorf early childhood educators who are acknowledged experts in their communities were interviewed. The study gathered information from senior Waldorf early childhood educators through qualitative, semi-structured interviews aimed at understanding the nature of teaching parenting skills that accord with Waldorf early childhood principles. Interview questions were informed by the literature review, which focuses on Steiner’s (2003) developmental theory, Susan Howard’s (2006) outline of early childhood education essentials, and the historical contexts in which these teachings are embedded. All interviews were analyzed using an adaptation of grounded theory methods. Results illuminated 11 major themes to describe how parent educators use the environment and their “being” to offer parent-centered, experiential practices rooted in Anthroposophy that “protect childhood” from impinging cultural conditions and contemporary parenting challenges. Through modeling and relationship with parents and children, parent educators offer a set of parenting skills that support health for families as understood through an Anthroposophical developmental lens. Additionally, parent educators help foster community and attachments such that parents can integrate their learning and begin a path of inner transformation. The study is designed to provide an empirical base to discussions of how Waldorf early education of parents works at the beginning of the 21st century.

Abstract:

Includes bibliographical references (leaves 160-166). Waldorf schools were first established in Germany in 1919 under the guidance of Rudolf Steiner, with the intention of educating children for the renewal of society. Since the spread of Waldorf schools to South Africa in the 1950's, South African Waldorf teachers have been faced with the challenge of localizing the pedagogy to meet the needs of modern South African children. One arena for this challenge is in planning the school festivals. Through data derived from ethnographic observation of festival planning and enactment at Michael Oak Waldorf School in Cape Town, South Africa, I show that Michael Oak teachers consider the celebration of school festivals to be intrinsic to the education of the children, and that in adapting the festivals to their own context they are confronted with conflicting opinions and ideas about how to juxtapose the Christian and seasonal festivals, how to negotiate religious differences, and to what extent to adapt the festivals to reflect specific aspects of South African culture. Using data obtained from participant observation, predominantly semi-structured, unstructured, and informal interviews with more than seventy people (including Michael Oak teachers, former pupils, and past and present parents), along with background reading and study, I show how the these teachers, recreating each festival anew every year instead of relying solely on established traditions, took a dialogical approach to conceptualizing and planning their festivals - one that, though time-consuming and sometimes complicated, was itself a ritual meaningful to the teachers. This dialogical approach was outwardly manifest in the festival's ritual symbols, particularly the use of time and space, and the objects and performance filling them. It was also observed in the planning meetings and was described by the Michael Oak teachers in interviews. Through this dialogical approach, the teachers experienced what Victor Turner calls communitas, a liminal, threshold state of creativity, changed relationships, and potentiality. I demonstrate through teachers' statements that by remaining on the threshold of these often conflicting ideas, the teachers found in themselves a creative energy that extended to the children as the teachers included them in festival preparation and enactment.

Abstract:

Há algumas décadas, estudos vêm sendo desenvolvidos com o intuito de analisar o impacto da mídia, e da publicidade, no desenvolvimento infantil. Entre os alertas sobre o desaparecimento da infância e a euforia provocada pelas possibilidades das novas tecnologias, os Estudos Culturais propõem a discussão do tema sob a ótica de questões como cultura, identidade e poder. Nesse sentido, este trabalho pretende colaborar com o debate ao revisar a bibliografia e observar empiricamente a relação criança, escola e mídia segundo métodos pedagógicos específicos (pedagogia Waldorf, mídia-educação e uso das TICs - Tecnologias da Informação e Comunicação - em sala de aula). Os resultados desta investigação refutaram a hipótese inicial de que uma pedagogia que evite ao máximo o contato com os meios eletrônicos pudesse resultar em crianças com um menor consumo de mídia. For some decades, studies have been developed in order to analyze the impact of media and advertising in child development. Among the warnings about the disappearance of childhood and the euphoria caused by the possibilities of new technologies, the Cultural Studies propose to discuss the topic from the perspective of matters such as culture, identity and power. In this way, this work intends to collaborate to the debate by reviewing the literature and empirically observe the relationship between child, school and media according to specific educational methods (Waldorf pedagogy, media education and use of ICTs - information and communication technologies - in the classroom). The results of this investigation disproved initial hypothesis that pedagogy that avoids the most contact with the electronic media could result in children with lower use of media.

Sendo assim, ele trata de uma pesquisa qualitativa do tipo Estudo de Caso. Como referencial teórico, pautamo-nos, fundamentalmente, em Rudolf Steiner para compreender a Pedagogia Waldorf. A pesquisa contou com a realização de um trabalho de campo, em uma escola Waldorf do estado de Minas Gerais, que consistiu em observações participantes das aulas de Matemática de uma turma do 6º ano do Ensino Fundamental composta por 20 alunos. Além disso, os dados produzidos e registrados no caderno de campo foram complementados com análise documental, entrevista semiestruturada realizada com a professora e diálogos informais na escola. A análise dos dados revelou e confirmou que o ensino de Matemática, de acordo com a Pedagogia Waldorf, acontece levando em consideração alguns elementos, que são: a estruturação do ensino em épocas, a consideração da etapa evolutiva em que a criança se encontra, o ensino através das artes, vivência, ritmo e repetição, uso do cálculo mental e oral, a metodologia do “ensino em três fases”, flexibilidade para o professor adequar o ensino, inter, multi e transdisciplinaridade sempre que possível, o trabalho com os temperamentos, dentre outros. O ensino levando em consideração esses elementos faz com que as crianças desenvolvam o querer, o sentir e o pensar de forma equilibrada, que é um dos princípios da Pedagogia Waldorf. A Educação Financeira foi trabalhada dentro de uma das épocas de Matemática do 6º ano escolar, intitulada “Vida Econômica e Financeira”. O estudo é muito amplo em sua proposta e alcance, e não se reduz apenas à prática de cálculos e ao estudo das finanças pessoais e atitudes financeiras. Como fruto desta pesquisa e com a intenção de direcionar os professores, foi produzida uma sugestão pedagógica para a Educação Financeira no 6º ano do Ensino Fundamental. This research is about a study of Waldorf Schools’ Financial Education method through an in-depth investigation and the author’s immersion. The paper presents a qualitative case study. We used Rudolf Steiner literature as a reference for Waldorf Education method. The research includes a fieldwork in a Waldorf School, located in Minas Gerais (Brazil), based on participative observation in Mathematics classes of a 6th grade Elementary School, composed by 20 students. Besides, collected and registered workbook data were assembled by bibliography study, teachers interview and informal chats in school. The data analysis revealed and confirmed that Math instruction, as state Waldorf Pedagogy, happens taking into consideration some elements, as such: Teaching structured in seasons, considering child evolutionary stage, education through arts, experience, rhythmic movements and repetition, mental and oral calculation, methodology “teaching in three steps”, inter, multi and transdisciplinarity as many as possible, dealing with different tempers, etc. A teaching considering those elements allows students to develop the thinking, feeling and willing in a balanced way. Financial Education subject was taught during a season in 6th grade, named “Financial and Economic Life”. It is very broad in its proposal and scope, not restraint only to calculation practices and to personal financial studies and attitudes. As a result of this research, a pedagogical suggestion grounded on Waldorf Education is presented for Financial Education within 6th grade Elementary School.

Abstract:

The central aim of Steiner pedagogy include enabling young people to develop as persons, to become socially responsible subjects capable of contributing constructively to society (Steiner (1985)) and the curriculum used in Waldorf (Steiner) schools is designed to support this process (Richter, 2016). This study focuses on the first of these aims, which I refer to as learning to become a subject, drawing on Biesta’s notion of subjectification. This inquiry seeks to understand how a group of a dozen nineteen-year-old students in a Waldorf school in Germany actually experience this. The study is set against the background of my concern that this aspect of learning is being marginalized in the upper school (age 14 to 19) by an increasingly one-sided focus on learning to pass exams. In this study I seek to interpret representations of the lived experiences of some students at the school in which I teach. These accounts were co-constructed through interaction with me as researcher. The students were asked to represent their experiences of learning and personal development in and through school-related learning situations. Qualitative, non-verbal, artistic methods (Leitch, 2006) and open interviewssemi-structured interviews (Kvale and Brinkman, 2008) were used, as well as some texts the students had previously written as reflections. The data were analyzed as individual cases using a phenomenological hermeneutic approach inspired by Gadamer (Gadamer, 2013) and van Manen (van Manen, 1990) and then a grounded approach (Corbin and Holt, 2011) was used to construct common themes across the cases. Samples of the translations were judged as reliable and the data analysis as plausible by two appropriately qualified external academics. The study takes a constructionist perspective and draws on social practice theory (Holland and Lave, 2009), subject-scientific theory (Grotlüschen, 2014) and current phenomenological perspectives on Bildung (Faulstich, 2013, Rittelmeyer, 2012). The findings highlight the importance of non-formal learning spaces such as work experience practicals, projects and drama productions, especially when these are supported by scaffolded reflection, for processes that can be described using the metaphor learning to become a subject. I account for this by using the theoretical construct of sojourning (learning as guided apprenticeship in landscapes of practice) (Fenton-O'Creevy et al., 2015, Rogoff, 1995). I also explore ways in which formal learning situations can also afford learning to become a subject.

Abstract:

Sammandrag Med detta arbete vill jag titta på de största skillnaderna mellan en kommunal-, en Montessori- och en Waldorfskola med inriktning på deras engelskundervisning. Detta för att få inspiration till olika sätt att undervisa elever i problem på, i framförallt engelska. För att kunna se de största skillnaderna och likheterna mellan den kommunala skolan, Montessoriskolan och Waldorfskolan började jag med att studera vad som finns skrivit om dem i litteraturen. Efter att ha gjort detta valde jag att ta kontakt med en skola av varje sort. Jag besökte de tre skolorna under två dagar vardera under tre veckors tid. Under de två dagarna satt jag med i klassrummet och tittade på hur undervisningen såg ut. Besöket avslutade jag med att intervjua den lärare vars klassrum jag besökte. Intervjufrågorna jag ställde till lärarna var formulerade utifrån den litteratur jag studerat. Jag kom fram till att det inte bara finns skillnader utan även likheter mellan skolorna, framförallt mellan den kommunala skolan och Montessoriskolan. Detta både i litteraturen och i resultatet. En av de största skillnaderna mellan de olika pedagogikerna och skolorna var utöver hur de lägger upp elevernas skoldagar, hur de använder sig av de nationella proven. Den kommunala skolan gör de nationella proven i årskurs fem, medan Montessoriskolan gör femmans nationella prov i både fyran, femman och sexan, och Waldorfskolan inte gör dem över huvud taget mer än i årskurs nio. Både Montessoriskolan och Waldorfskolan anser att de kräver mer av sina elever än vad som görs i de nationella målen. Men alla tre skolorna följer målen, även om Waldorfskolorna har sin egen läroplan. In this study I have looked at some of the differences between a municipal-, a Montessori- and a Waldorf school, with focus on their English teaching. This is because I wanted to find ways to teach English to pupils with various types of learning difficulties. To be able to see the main differences and similarities between a municipal school, a Montessori school and a Waldorf school I began with literature studies. When I had finished the literature studies I contacted three schools that applied the different pedagogies. I visited the three schools during two days each through a three-week period. During these two days I was in the classroom when the pupils were there and followed the teachers’ teaching. I ended the visits with an interview with the teacher whose classroom I visited. I came to the conclusion that there are both differences and similarities between the three schools. The two schools that are most similar are the municipal school and the Montessori school both in the literature and in the result from the observations and interviews. Two of the main differences between the schools are how they plan the school days for the pupils, in which order they have the lessons, and how they use the national tests. The municipal school uses the national test in fifth grade, the Montessori school uses it in the years four, five and six and the Waldorf school only use it in year nine. The Montessori school and Waldorf school believe that they require more from their pupils that the national goals. All the three schools aim at those goals, but the Waldorf schools have their own curriculum.

Abstract:

Children education in Lithuania is undergoing a period of intense changes. Along with changes, many innovations are being introduced. Waldorf pedagogic is one of most successful innovations introduced past few years. According to the creator of Waldorf pedagogic, Rudolph Steiner, education should be considered as a kind of art, based on knowledge of human psychology. According to him, any kind of education or schooling should be based on stimulation of creativity and artistic taste, ability to feel and understand the inner self as well as people and surroundings around, also on the knowledge of surrounding nature. In the system of Waldorf pedagogic ideal pupil becomes the one that is able of thinking and creating, at the same time improving his or her knowledge of surroundings and inner self and adjusting to quickly changing circumstances. That means a person able to adopt innovations and to use them in everyday professional activities. Object of survey Peculiarities of the second – fourth forms pupils’ creativity at Waldorf School and traditional school. There have only been few researches conducted in Lithuania to investigate influence of Waldorf pedagogic on creativity of children. Most of researches just mention this pedagogic system along with few facts of how it works or stimulates pupils’ creativity. Conventionally there are only two ways of education considered – either constant schooling or free exploring of surroundings, thus gaining necessary experience on your... [to full text]

The Waldorf Pedagogy emerged from a local need in Stuttgart, Germany, in 1919 and has been multiplying exponentially these days around the globe. Teacher’s training within this pedagogy takes the form of seminars over three to four and a half years. This study sought through the (auto)biographical narrative of three teachers at different moments of the training, pointed out and discussed the formative marks presented and what the impacts of this formation on the teacher who have chosen it. Four formative marks were defined - Responsibility in the formation of other human beings, critical thinking about the traditional pedagogical processes, admiration for the individual character of the Waldorf pedagogy and search for several forms of spirituality and, or, by the Anthroposophical Spiritual Science. This study showed the focus of the Waldorf formation on the individualities of each teacher that aims to enable them in the act of showing their students their unique characteristics. A presente pesquisa debruçou-se sobre noções básicas da Antroposofia no intento de se aprofundar nas questões que trouxeram à tona a necessidade de buscar um outro olhar para a educação. A Pedagogia Waldorf surgiu de uma necessidade local de Stuttgart, Alemanha, em 1919 e vem se multiplicando exponencialmente nos dias de hoje ao redor de todo o globo. A formação docente dentro da referida pedagogia se dá na forma de seminários ao longo de três a quatro anos e meio. Este estudo buscou, através da narrativa (auto)biográfica de três professoras em momentos diferentes da formação, apontou e discutiu as marcas formativas presentes e quais os impactos dessa formação no professor que a escolhe. Foram delimitadas quatro marcas formativas – Responsabilidade na formação de outros seres humanos, pensamento crítico acerca dos processos pedagógicos tradicionais, admiração pelo caráter individual da pedagogia Waldorf e busca por formas varias de espiritualidade e, ou, pela Ciência Espiritual Antroposófica. Este estudo mostrou o foco da formação Waldorf nas individualidades de cada professora, que visa capacitá-las no ato de fazer transparecer em seus alunos suas características únicas.

Abstract:

碩士 南華大學 教育社會學研究所 101 In order to obtain a deeper understanding of localization of the German Waldorf education, this study adopts a qualitative case study approach, takes the Shan Feng Waldorf Elementary School in Yunlin County as the study object, conduct in-depth interviews and document analysis for data collection and collects supplementary materials from field observation to investigate the tradeoffs and compromises required during the localization of German Waldorf education in Yunlin County. The Shan Feng Elementary School has conducted localized measures in terms of administrative organization, course teaching, teacher recruitment, and business operations. This study reviews the predicament encountered after localization of the Waldorf school, the coping measures, and the reasons why the attitude of people has changed in local communities. Then, the following conclusions are drawn based on research results. I. Tradeoffs and compromises required during the localization of German Waldorf education in Yunlin County: including reinforcing the education content within the current education system as the connective mechanism; replacing the threefold organization for the learning organization; teacher recruitment does not meet the requirements of the Waldorf education; school hardware cannot perfectly match the philosophy of the Waldorf education. II. Lack of supporting measures on the introduction of alternative education from national education authorities: including requirements on funding, evaluation and competition study; regulations regarding school registration and school management have not loosened. III. Localization can lead to different results at different places, which means that the Waldorf education can be shaped differently in accordance with the local environments. IV. The localization strategies for the Shan Feng Waldorf Elementary School: including the development of local agriculture towards organic farming, performances and results presentation of multiple intelligences, combination of education and regional economic development, recruitment of older people in local communities in school education, etc. V. Results of school localization in terms of administrative organization, course teaching, teacher recruitment, and business operations: Regarding administrative organization, schools and parents under the bureaucratic system strive to promote the spirit of the threefold organization. Regarding course teaching, schools combine local elements to reshape courses and create featured programs. Regarding teacher recruitment, parents identify with Waldorf teachers in terms of their respectful, accommodating attitude as well as the spiritual guidance provided by Waldorf teachers. Regarding business operations, the cultivation of local cultures requires the collaboration of teachers, parents and students and schools need to strive to maintain a peaceful, reciprocal relationship with the outer environment. VI. The predicament encountered after transformation of the Waldorf school and coping strategies: The predicament includes scarce resources, little knowledge of local people about the Waldorf education, evaluation, assessment and competition requirements of supervisors, concerns of local residents, etc. The coping strategies will be detailed in the following sections. VII. The reasons why the attitude of people has changed in local communities: Researchers obtain two conclusions about the reasons why the attitude of people has changed in local communities: (1) child development and (2) positive changes in local communities. 　　　Based on the above research conclusions, this study further proposes advice on the education system in Taiwan for educational administrative authorities, alternative education units to be established, and future researchers.
