  • CA Students Urge Assembly Members to Pass AB
    May 26, 2021 The Honorable Members of the California State Assembly State Capitol Sacramento, CA 95814 RE: Thousands of CA Public School Students Strongly Urge Support for AB 101 Dear Members of the Assembly, We are a coalition of California high school and college students known as Teach Our History California. Made up of the youth organizations Diversify Our Narrative and GENup, we represent 10,000 youth leaders from across the State fighting for change. Our mission is to ensure that students across California high schools have meaningful opportunities to engage with the vast, diverse, and rich histories of people of color; and thus, we are in deep support of AB101 which will require high schools to provide ethnic studies starting in academic year 2025-26 and students to take at least one semester of an A-G approved ethnic studies course to graduate starting in 2029-30. Our original petition made in support of AB331, linked here, was signed by over 26,000 CA students and adult allies in support of passing Ethnic Studies. Please see appended to this letter our letter in support of AB331, which lists the names of all our original petition supporters. We know AB101 has the capacity to have an immense positive impact on student education, but also on student lives as a whole. For many students, our communities continue to be systematically excluded from narratives presented to us in our classrooms. By passing AB101, we can change the precedent of exclusion and allow millions of students to learn the histories of their peoples.

  • Athletes and Coaches' Gender Inequality: the Case of The
    Silva M-R.G., Barata P.: ATHLETES AND COACHES' GENDER INEQUALITY: THE CASE OF… Vol. 8 Issue 2: 187 - 196 ATHLETES AND COACHES’ GENDER INEQUALITY: THE CASE OF THE GYMNASTICS FEDERATION OF PORTUGAL Maria-Raquel G. Silva1-3, Paulo Barata4 1Scientific Commission of the Gymnastics Federation of Portugal, Lisbon, Portugal 2Faculty of Health Sciences, University Fernando Pessoa, Oporto, Portugal 3Research Centre for Anthropology and Health, University of Coimbra, Coimbra, Portugal 4National School of Gymnastics, Gymnastics Federation of Portugal, Lisbon, Portugal Original article Abstract The aim of this study was to analyze the gender-participation among Portuguese gymnasts and Portuguese coaches, according to gymnastics’ disciplines and geographical areas of Portugal. An individual-authorized data base of all national gymnasts involved in the National School of Gymnastics of the Gymnastics Federation of Portugal (Federação de Ginástica de Portugal) during three athletic seasons, namely 2012/2013, 2013/2014 and 2014/2015. Data from coaches was only available for the season of 2012/2013. In the athletic season of 2012/2013, from a sample of 14742 gymnasts, 81.2% were female and only 18.7% were male (P< 0.01). Similar results were found in the next two seasons as follows: 83.2% were female and 16.7% were male in 2013/2014 and 84.9% were female and 15.1% were male in 2014/2015. Significantly gymnasts-gender differences (P<0.01) were observed for all disciplines. In RG, WAG and MAG no differences between genders were observed due to the exclusive sport participation of female or male gymnasts, respectively. The same tendency of gymnasts’ genderparticipation was observed for coaches; thus, the majority of Portuguese coaches (57.7%) was female and 42.3% were male.

  • Environmental Literacy in Madeira Island (Portugal): the Influence of Demographic Variables
    International Electronic Journal of Environmental Education Vol.6, Issue 2, 2016, 92-107 RESEARCH ARTICLE Environmental literacy in Madeira Island (Portugal): The influence of Demographic Variables Hélder SPÍNOLA* The University of Madeira, Funchal, PORTUGAL To cite this article: Spinola, H. (2016). Environmental literacy in Madeira Island (Portugal): The influence of demographic variables. International Electronic Journal of Environmental Education, 6(2), 92-107. Abstract Demographic factors are among those that influence environmental literacy and, particularly, environmentally responsible behaviours, either directly or due to an aggregation effect dependent on other types of variables. Present study evaluates a set of demographic variables as predictors for environmental literacy among 9th grade students from Madeira Island (Portugal). Through a survey involving 491 students, gender, place of residence (rural and urban), 8th grade Natural Sciences discipline performance, participation in school’s environmental activities and, indirectly, socio-economic status were evaluated in their association to environmental literacy and, particularly, to each of its three main components: knowledge, attitude and behaviour. The results confirm three stronger environmental literacy predictors: rural or urban residence, depending on the components considered, higher marks in 8th grade Natural Sciences discipline and higher socio-economic status; and two weaker: female and participation in school’s environmental activities. Our findings found support in previous studies and underline the need to center socio-demographic factors in environmental education practices. Considering demographic variables as the reflex of environmental, economic and socio-cultural contexts, our results corroborate an environmental literacy’s construction framework on the light of Vygotsky’s socio-cultural theory of human learning, in which real learning contexts play a fundamental role.

    Socio-economic impact study of the Pro League on the Belgian economy June 2019 Table of content Foreword 1 Executive Summary 2 Introduction 4 Scope 4 Methodology 5 The evolution of professional football in Belgium 10 Organization of the Pro League 12 Belgian football club revenues 14 Belgian football club costs 22 Transfers 26 Case studies 29 Economic impact of the Pro League 32 Social impact of the Pro League 38 Community & Social Responsibility 40 Fans 43 Youth 46 Appendix 54 Socio-economic impact study of the Pro League on the Belgian economy Foreword Even if we would prefer to remember the successes on the pitch, the 18/19 season will always be marked by the operation “Propere Handen”. Excessive spending of clubs in favor of agents, questions around the fiscal and social status, the difficulty our young players face to secure a spot in the first team, combined with other topics like the one regarding the security in our stadiums, have been considerable challenges for the professional football in Belgium. The reprehensible actions of some individuals should not dominate the image of the sector. It is wrong to assume that professional football in Belgium is less mature than in the surrounding competitions. It would also be wrong to believe that the 24 clubs of the Pro League are not contributing to the economic and social development of our country, as they continue to play a prominent role in the Pierre François European competitions. CEO Pro League This second edition of the report on the “socio-economic impact assessment of the Pro League on the Belgian economy” covers the numbers of 2018 and brings an objective and quantified approach of our activities.
