Resumen: En este artículo se presenta una investigación descriptiva sobre las concepciones de un grupo de 171 docentes de Educación Primaria sobre la creatividad. En concreto, se indaga sobre las creencias en torno a la naturaleza de la creatividad, su importancia en la educación y los beneficios que aporta, tanto individual como socialmente. El objetivo principal es ver si las creencias se corresponden con la investigación actual sobre creatividad o por el contrario, reflejan concepciones ya obsoletas. De igual modo se les ha preguntado sobre aquellas metodologías que son consideradas más efectivas para su desarrollo. Como instrumento, se ha usado un cuestionario tipo Likert, seguido de dos preguntas abiertas. Los resultados indican que la mayoría del profesorado considera la creatividad como muy importante, aunque persisten ciertas creencias basadas en una concepción mitológica del hecho creativo. Igualmente resulta escaso el conocimiento de metodologías pedagógicas que se pueden implementar para el desarrollo creativo. Palabras clave: concepciones docentes, creatividad, educación primaria, metodologías creativas.   Abstract: This paper presents a descriptive research study on the perceptions of a group of 171 primary school teachers about their creativity. In particular, the research focused on beliefs related to the nature of creativity, its importance in education, and the benefits that it offers, both individually and socially. The main objective is to ascertain whether their perceptions correspond with current research on creativity, or alternatively with outdated concepts. In addition, the participants were asked about the methodologies that they consider to be effective for developing creativity. As an instrument, a Likert-style questionnaire with two open-ended questions at the end was used. The results indicate that most of the teachers consider creativity to be very important, however, certain ideas based on an archaic understanding of creativity still exist. Similarly, there is a lack of knowledge about teaching methodologies that can be employed to develop creativity. Keywords:teachers’ beliefs, creativity, primary education, creative methodologies.   http://dx.doi.org/10.7203/eari.9.12224

El estudio analiza los resultados más relevantes de la investigación realizada con docentes de educación primaria, en referencia al modelo TPACK. El objetivo de esta investigación es conocer la autopercepción de los docentes de primaria en servicio, con respecto a su capacitación tecnológica, tomando como referencia la escala de diagnóstico TPACK. Para la recopilación de información, se adaptó un cuestionario tipo Likert ya validado, siguiendo el modelo TPACK. El cuestionario está compuesto por 47 ítems que recopilan información de las siete dimensiones del modelo. La muestra está formada por 607 docentes. La investigación es de naturaleza descriptiva no experimental, y realiza un análisis de varianza multivariante (MANOVA). Los resultados más significativos han sido el hallazgo de diferencias con respecto al género de los participantes. En general, son los hombres los que tienen una mayor percepción de sí mismos con respecto al uso y la integración de las TIC en su práctica docente, especialmente en asuntos científicos. Las mujeres parecen ser más efectivas cuando seleccionan enfoques para guiar el aprendizaje y el pensamiento del estudiante en términos de lectura y escritura. The study aims to analyze the most relevant results of the research carried out with primary education teachers, with reference to the TPACK model. The objective of this research is to know the self-perception of primary school teachers in service, regarding their technological training, taking as a reference the TPACK diagnostic scale. For the collection of information, a Likert type questionnaire already validated was adapted, following the TPACK model. The questionnaire consists of 47 items that collect information on the seven dimensions of the model. The sample consists of 607 teachers. The research is of a non-experimental descriptive nature, and performs a multivariate analysis of variance (MANOVA). The most significant results have been the finding of differences regarding the gender of the participants. In general, it is men who have a greater perception of themselves regarding the use and integration of ICTs in their teaching practice, especially in scientific matters. Women seem to be more effective when they select approaches to guide student learning and thinking in terms of reading and writing.

This article presents an investigation into how primary-school pupils imagine a good teacher and what characteristics of teachers they appreciate. The teacher’s personality is a quality of central importance to the teaching process. Teachers find themselves in many diverse situations and they cannot always remain the same. Each situation requires different qualities, attitudes and knowledge. In different situations, the teacher can achieve the same educational outcome in various ways, by using a range of methods. No teacher can be expected to have the ideal personality and cannot possibly have all the desired qualities, so some qualities compensate for the lack of others. However, the crucial aspects of a good teacher’s personality is authenticity, naturalness and positive relationship with pupils.

In the foreword, we outline the situation in the field of education in the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy, so that we can later in the text further analyse the goals and visions of the school reform efforts of teachers organized in local associations and two prominent pedagogical theorists. In doing so, we limit ourselves to the activities of primary school teachers and primary school legislation. In the central part of the text we describe the efforts to improve the financial and status position of teachers, the efforts to systematically reform primary education, the efforts to overcome the ideological divisiveness of the two most powerful teacher associations, and the efforts to unify teachers' associations throughout the kingdom. At the end, we outline the three most important programming texts on the reform of education in the new country and try to identify the pedagogical theoretical influences that are characteristic of the period between the two wars.

Introducción. Examinamos las asociaciones y contribuciones proporcionales de los tres modelos validados de entorno psicosocial de trabajo estresante (tensión laboral, desequilibrio esfuerzo-recompensa, injusticia organizacional) con respecto a su potencial para explicar síntomas depresivos entre profesores de educación primaria. Adicionalmente, comprobamos el rol mediador de diferentes tipos de problemas de sueño.Método. Los participantes fueron 76 profesores de primaria finlandeses. Las asociaciones entre los tres factores psicosociales relacionados con el trabajo, dificultades de sueño y síntomas depresivos fueron examinadas mediante análisis de regresión múltiple y análisis de mediación por bootstrap, ajustados por género y edad. Análisis de importancia relativa fueron llevados a cabo para examinar la contribución proporcional de los factores psicosociales relacionados con el trabajo sobre los síntomas depresivos.Resultados. Ambos modelos de desequilibrio esfuerzo-recompensa y tensión laboral mostraron asociaciones positivas con síntomas depresivos, mientras que la asociación entre el modelo de injusticia organizacional y los síntomas depresivos no fue estadísticamente significativa. Cuando las contribuciones proporcionales de los tres modelos fueron analizadas simultáneamente, el de desequilibrio esfuerzo-recompensa se mostró como el predictor más importante. De acuerdo con los análisis de mediación por bootstrap, los problemas de sueño en términos de sueño no reparador explicaron el 18% de la asociación entre la tensión laboral y los síntomas depresivos, y el 11% de la asociación entre el desequilibrio esfuerzo-recompensa y los síntomas depresivos.Conlusión. Nuestros resultados sugieren que, entre los profesores de primaria, en particular el desequilibrio esfuerzo-recompensa pero también la tensión laboral podrían ser factores de riesgo para los síntomas depresivos, y que esta asociación quizá sea parcialmente explicada por dificultades en el sueño. El ajuste de las demandas laborales y una mejora de los aspectos gratificantes del trabajo de los profesores quizá contribuyan la calidad del sueño y reduzcan el riesgo de síntomas depresivos entre aquellos que ejercen como profesores de educación primaria.

The paper explores the influence of years of work experience, professional qualifications, additional music education, engaging in music activities in leisure time, and going to the theatre/classical music concerts on the attitudes of primary school teachers toward the school subject Music. The research was conducted on a sample of primary education teachers from all Croatian counties (N = 233), using a questionnaire composed of two parts: The General Data Questionnaire and Attitudes Toward Music as a School Subject. The results confirm that primary school teachers with fewer years of work experience have more positive attitudes toward the Curriculum of Music Education for Primary Schools and for Grammar Schools in the Republic of Croatia, while in other aspects of attitudes no difference was found. Furthermore, no differences were found in the attitudes of primary school teachers toward the subject Music with regard to their professional qualifications. Primary education teachers who have attended additional music classes, who engage in music activities in leisure time and who often attend theatre/classical music concerts, consider Music to be an important school subject that relaxes the students, and consider themselves more competent to teach music. The obtained results have significant implications in terms of music pedagogy, with regard to organizing the music education of preservice primary teachers and their lifelong learning.

The COVID-19 pandemic has influenced the manner in which school activities are organized and the way that interactions occur between all educational actors. According to both teacher and parent opinion, the quality of cooperation and communication between the school and the families has not been affected. The use of modern means of communication is considered by both parents and primary school teachers as an optimal strategy for strengthening the school-family partnership. This study presents several types of activities that parents have enjoyed and which could be organized in the online environment. The authors of the study have discovered that for some parents it was very comfortable to interact with the teacher in the online environment. For these parents, the main advantage of using communication platforms or applications refers to economy of time; thus, travel from their home or job to the school was avoided.
