“…TPCK requires science teachers to know how to: find and use online animations that effectively demonstrate a specific scientific principle; use the Internet to discover common learner misconceptions related to a science topic; use digital technology to facilitate scientific inquiry in the classroom; use digital technology that facilitates topic-specific science activities in the classroom; help students use digital technology to collect scientific data, organize and identify patterns in scientific data, observe scientific phenomena, create and/or manipulate models of scientific phenomena. early-adopting science teachers' perceptions and use of an online web 2.0 technology, a wiki, to support professional development (Angeli & Valanides, 2009;Donnelly & Boniface, 2013). Teachers revealed that they tended to favour face-to-face interactions in course training, although they did see value in the wiki to fill in the intermittent gap between such meetings.…”

Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge (TPCK) represents the teachers' professional knowledge needed to integrate technology in education. Following a design-based approach this study describes the strategies for designing and assessing an in-service science teacher education course. Data was obtained through interviews, questionnaires, using participant observation and analysis of in-service science teachers' professional portfolios.A detailed description of the research methodology and findings is given, including an overview of the implications of the study. Results show that integrating technology with a Research Teaching Perspective (RTP) could be a way to develop innovative science lessons for students. Suggestions for the creation of a design framework for the development of initial and in-service science teachers' TPCK are put forward.

“…The analysis was structured around the research questions (as provided earlier) using deductive approaches that drew on themes from the theoretical frameworks of the study, i.e., identifying instances of the acquisition, expansion and integration of the five components of PCK, as identified by Magnusson et al (1999), by PTs into their classroom teaching and rhetoric (Hume and Berry 2013) and of the technology themes: competency, utility and resourcing (Donnelly and Boniface 2013). If teachers are to find value in a technology, they need be able to use it (competency), see benefits of it to their practice (uses) and believe that the technology has adequate resources, preferably with their input (resourcing) (ibid).…”

“…Despite the potential of CoRes for PCK development, some researchers like Rohaan, Taconis, and Jochems (2009) have critiqued CoRes for being time-consuming to produce. Also, the CoRe format, whether in paper or electronic form, is restricting since it does not reflect the dynamic nature of teachers' PCK and how it is shared by teachers (Donnelly and Boniface 2013). The difficulty in organising face-to-face meetings of three to five teachers in a specialist subject such as chemistry has also been raised (Donnelly and Boniface 2013).…”

“…These resource folios proved valuable resources for teacher education in science and spawned a number of new research initiatives using the process of CoRe design as a tool for promoting PCK development in both pre-service and in-service teachers' PCK (Bertram and Loughran 2012;Rollnick et al 2008;Donnelly and Boniface 2013;Hume andBerry 2010, 2013). These studies found CoRe design useful in gaining insight into both pre-service and in-service teachers' PCK development and providing forums for the teachers to more critically discuss and reflect on their practice.…”

This article addresses in a preliminary way the creative and innovative strategies of institutional communication of the Itaú, O Boticário and Cacau Show enterprises, when analyzing the use by them of the digital social networks. The methodology used was a multi-case study with and qualitative and quantitative analysis of the data. A system of variables and indicators is presented to measure and identify which are the institutional communication strategies of a creative and innovative nature used by some of the more innovative Brazilian companies in the digital social media, pursuant to the ranking consulted. The results obtained point to strategy making a privileged in institutional communication, leaving the merchandising at a second level, in addition to be considered as a creative strategy that is appropriate for the current market standard, which can offer good dividends. ResumenEste artículo aborda de manera preliminar las estrategias creativas e innovadoras de comunicación institucional de las empresas Itaú, O Boticário y Cacau Show, al analizar la utilización de las redes sociales digitales por parte de las mismas. La metodología empleada fue el estudio multicaso, con análisis cuali-cuantitativo de los datos. Se presenta un sistema de variables e indicadores para mensurar e identificar cuáles son las estrategias de comunicación institucional de carácter creativo e innovador que utilizan algunas de las empresas más innovadoras del Brasil y los medios sociales digitales, de acuerdo con el ranking consultado. Los resultados obtenidos apuntan que la estrategia de hacer una inversión privilegiando la comunicación institucional, dejando en segundo plano el de la mercadológica, además de ser considerada una estrategia creativa acorde con el comportamiento padrón del mercado en la actualidad, puede venir a ofrecer buenos dividendos. (Di Felice, 2012), ainda mais num país como o Brasil, onde os internautas podem ficar até mais de quatro horas na web, em média (Chagas, 2014). As mídias sociais digitais são uma magnífica ferramenta para as empresas na busca de atingir seus objetivos (Gabriel, 2010;Turchi, 2012), como é de amplo conhecimento. Isto se torna cada vez mais onipresente, conforme atestam os dados de internet que resultam surpreendentes, como os de que o Brasil é o país no qual os internautas passam mais tempo na web (Caputo, 2014). Na atualidade, as redes sociais digitais não são utilizadas apenas como instrumentos de comunicação mercadológica e estratégia comercial, mas também como instrumentos da comunicação institucional, redundando em estratégias de relacionamento e fidelização do cliente.Tal aspecto decorre de diversos fatores, dentre os quais destacamos o fato de que os novos públicos e atores tecnossociais apresentam novos comportamentos como consumidores e cobram da sociedade e das empresas novas formas de abordagem e relacionamento, interessando-se constantemente pela reputação da organização e não apenas pela qualidade de seus produtos e serviços (Rosa, 2006;Terra, 2011).Este artigo p...
