Abstract The teaching-learning process becomes more attractive when practical classes are used as part of methodological tools. Aiming (i) to stimulate the interest of high school students in the microbiological world and (ii) to provide didactic experience for microbiology graduate students, practical classes were undertaken. These classes were carried out during the years 2016 and 2017, using the infrastructure held at Universidade Federal de Viçosa. Briefly, laboratory classes were prepared and taught by microbiology graduate students and an evaluation questionnaire was answered by the participants after the classes. Approximately 95% of the high school students, from both years, evaluated the experience outside of the school routine as very good and good. A total of 90.09% (2016) and 100% (2017) of graduate students evaluated this experience as very good and good. The relationship between high school and graduate students also increased the curiosity of the former regarding the university environment. Accordingly, the information retention regarding the ‘microbiology world’ was verified after one year and the students were able to remember important terms related to the microbiology class. In addition, this work allowed graduate students and high school students to build a closer relationship and created an excellent teaching-learning strategy for both.

This initiative aims at narrowing the gap between high school students and the University, as well as to disseminate academic and scientific information to Nova Friburgo and its neighboring population, located in the mountainous region of Rio de Janeiro State. The objective of this paper is to offer an account of the strategy to approach high school students in the aforementioned region through vacation courses in Nutrition. The courses "Eating and Nutrition" and "Nutrition and Good Food Handling Practices" were offered throughout years of 2014 and 2015, respectively, at HINF/UFF, in two turns, with a workload of 3 to 4h, and 20 to 25 vacancies per turn. The initiative was promoted by the distribution of brochures, lectures at schools and on websites. The registration was made with JotForm form available on the Project’s website. All students were interested and willing to apply to higher education courses. These students saw the vacation course as an opportunity to experience the university environment. Projects involving high school and elementary school students represent a major link between the university and the community. By means of these actions, this vacation course can promote the knowledge produced in the university, and thus foster in the students the desire to go to College.

A modification of the Paired-Stimuli Parent Program (Florance, 1977) was adapted for the treatment of articulatory errors of visually handicapped children. Blind high school students served as clinical aides. A discussion of treatment methodology, and the results of administrating the program to 32 children, including a two-year follow-up evaluation to measure permanence of behavior change, is presented.

Summary: This article describes a triarchic analysis of an aptitude-treatment interaction in a college-level introductory-psychology course given to selected high-school students. Of the 326 total participants, 199 were selected to be high in analytical, creative, or practical abilities, or in all three abilities, or in none of the three abilities. The selected students were placed in a course that either well matched or did not match their pattern of analytical, creative, and practical abilities. All students were assessed for memory, analytical, creative, and practical achievement. The data showed an aptitude-treatment interaction between students' varied ability patterns and the match or mismatch of these abilities to the different instructional groups.

Identity Exploration

This study examined how social opportunity structure influences identity exploration and commitment of Albanian high school students. A total of 258 students completed a questionnaire that gauged their identity exploration and commitment in three domains: education, occupation, and family. ANOVA results indicated that, overall, students scored highest in exploration in the domain of education and in commitment in the domain of family. Students' exploration and commitment were linked to gender. Albanian female students scored higher than male students in exploration and commitment regarding education and family. Perceived work opportunities in Albania or abroad also significantly moderated participants' exploration in the domain of education and were associated with commitment in education and occupation. As one of the first studies to explore Albanian youth's identity development in relation to social opportunity structure, findings are discussed in light of furthering the field of Albanian adolescent and youth development.

Abstract. This study investigated the effects of politicians’ nonparticipatory and participatory Facebook posts on young people’s political efficacy – a key determinant of political participation. We employed an experimental design, using a sample of N = 125 high school students (15–20 years). Participants either saw a Facebook profile with no posts (control condition), nonparticipatory posts, or participatory posts. While nonparticipatory posts did not affect participants’ political efficacy, participatory posts exerted distinct effects. For those high in trait evaluations of the politician presented in the stimulus material or low in political cynicism, we found significant positive effects on external and collective efficacy. By contrast, for those low in trait evaluations or high in cynicism, we found significant negative effects on external and collective efficacy. We did not find any effects on internal efficacy. The importance of content-specific factors and individual predispositions in assessing the influence of social media use on participation is discussed.
