Sala de recursos para deficientes visuais: contribuições para o processo de inclusão escolar

This work is situated in the universe of resource rooms with a focus on the teachinglearning disabled students with low vision and visual in two cities of São Paulo. The paper discusses theoretically the historical emergence of these rooms, the deployment in the State of São Paulo and its importance within the context of school inclusion of students with visual impairments. Its purpose is to conduct a general survey of the operating conditions of the rooms from the perspective of the teacher of students. The results verified the contribution of this service as a complementary tool of the ordinary classroom, the use of specific instructional materials and overall educational performance of students. The results indicate that this type of specialized care while receiving criticism, does not promote segregation, but what about the educational needs of these students, who despite the lack of vision, school performance is equal to or better than the other students in the classroom common, it all depends on family support, and dedication to studies by the student. Research has shown students satisfied with the services provided in the resource room, as well as integration and good relationships between teachers and students. We could also highlight the importance of specific training and mastery of knowledge by the teacher to work with the visually impaired person. At the end the results were sent to the schools of this research object of study so that it can contribute to effective work in the educational process for visually impaired students in resource rooms

A (des) motivação extrínseca no contexto escolar: análise de um estudo de caso

The motivation of the pupils has been pointed as one of the factors that have influenced directly about what and as they learn. The boardings social-cognitivists of the motivation point two orientations: the intrinsic, that it is seen as natural trend of the individual, in which it executes an activity for considering it attractive, and the extrinsical, with the purpose to take care of to requests or pressures of other people, or to demonstrate to aptitudes and abilities. This research investigates the extrinsical motivation and its consequences in the pertaining to school performance of a pupil considered for the professors as having learning difficulties.

Intoxicação crônica por chumbo e implicação no desenvolvimento escolar

To understand the implications of lead contamination contributes to more effective public politics to eliminate exposure to the metal and orientation of interventions that minimize their effects. In this paper we intended to evaluate the effects of lead contamination in children, with the Teste de Desempenho Escolar (TDE). In Study 1, transversal, aimed to evaluate the influence of blood lead levels in 28 participants of both sexes, of seven to fifteen years, divided into two groups according to the level of contamination. In Study 2, longitudinal study aimed to evaluate the effects of contamination on the school ,performance of 10 children at an interval of four years. Results showed significant underperformance for children with higher levels of contamination and that the level of academic performance remains significantly lower than expected for the series in which they find themselves. The data seem to indicate the deleterious effects of lead contamination in school performance.

Desempenho de crianças com deficiência auditiva e implante coclear em tarefas de seleção de e de nomeação de figuras

The aim of this study was to investigate the development of specific domains of Numerical Cognition (Number Sense – NS, Number Comprehension – NC, Number Production – NP, and Calculation – CA) in Brazilian children with Specific Learning Disorders. The study included 72 children (36 boys), from 9-to 10-years-old, enrolled in 4th and 5th years of elementary school of public schools at countryside of Sao Paulo State, Brazil. They were divided into three groups: control (CT, N = 42), Developmental Dyslexia (DL, N = 11) and Developmental Dyscalculia combined with dyslexia (DDc, N = 19). All participants had intellectual level within the normal range, however, children from the last two groups had Learning Disorders classified by School Achievement Test - TDE (Stein, 1994) and DDc children received necessarily classification as 'inferior' in Arithmetic Test of TDE. The children did not differ in NS. DL and DDc children showed slight deficits in NC. However, DDc children had moderate in NP and mild to moderate deficits in CA, which indicates a more generalized impairment in Numerical Cognition. Furthermore, DDc children showed discrepancy in Numerical Cognition performance when compared to the other groups. Thus, children with Learning Disorders showed different performances in Numerical Cognition, although both groups had preserved SN, DDc children showed higher deficits and discrepancy in relation DL and typically developing children.

Baixo desempenho e enriquecimento da interação: propostas de Feuerstein e mediação da aprendizagem

This text is the result of a larger study into the role of the mother tongue in the construction of school knowledge, with a view to promoting gains in the performance of teenagers. The three objectives in this particular paper are: (1) to address Feuerstein's ideas, how the mother tongue interrelates with specific content, and the management of pedagogical interaction; (2) to illustrate enriched interaction during interventions by the researcher; and (3) to point out that supervised internship actions may help underachieving students. This is done in light of an interpretive analysis of the specialized literature, course books, reports and notes concerning interventions with students, and video and audio recordings. The analysis of interactions and student output following the researcher's interventions reveals increased awareness and change regarding school knowledge and how speaking/writing about specific content may enhance their performance in the completion of pedagogical tasks.

O papel da inteligência emocional na gestão de conflitos e o sucesso escolar

As escolas têm como objetivo primário preparar os jovens para a integração na sociedade. Como tal, estimulam o desenvolvimento de competências para tornar os alunos aptos para as adversidades do futuro. Tradicionalmente, admite-se que as capacidades cognitivas têm um grande peso no sucesso escolar. Contudo, as competências socio afetivas têm sido sugeridas como variáveis potencialmente explicativas do desempenho escolar. O presente estudo pretendeu verificar a associação entre a Inteligência Emocional (IE) na Gestão de Conflitos e no sucesso escolar de alunos (n=52; média ± desvio-padrão: 17,7±0,7 anos) do ensino secundário dos Estabelecimentos Militares de Ensino - não superior (EME’s). A metodologia de investigação apresentou duas fases: 1) pesquisa bibliográfica sobre a IE, gestão de conflitos e o sucesso escolar; 2) aplicação e análise dos questionários, o MSCEIT e o autodiagnóstico dos estilos de gestão de conflitos. Observou-se que os alunos dos EME’s contêm valores de IE superiores aos valores reportados na sua faixa etária, e que utilizam maioritariamente três estilos de gestão de conflitos, nomeadamente: a competição (preferencial), inação, e (o menos utilizado) a cedência. Verificou-se que a IE não prediz a gestão de conflitos, contudo observou-se uma correlação positiva, entre o estilo cedência e a IE. Verificou-se também que a IE prediz 33% da disciplina de matemática, e é diferenciadora quanto ao género.

O brincar e o bem-estar da criança abrigada: sua influência no combate à depressão e ao baixo rendimento escolar

Este estudo verifica a eficácia de intervenções lúdicas junto a crianças abrigadas com problemas de aprendizagem e quadros de depressão, analisando a influência do brincar em seu bem-estar e qualidade de vida. Realiza-se através de metodologia clínica-interventiva, junto a oito crianças de ambos os sexos, de 8 anos, de classe de baixa renda, abrigadas há dois anos, cursando a 1ª. série de escola pública, com queixa escolar. Após caracterização da instituição, avalia-se individualmente o nível cognitivo das crianças através das Matrizes Progressivas Coloridas de Raven, das Provas Piagetianas de conservação, classificação e seriação e verifica o material escolar. Aplica a seguir o Inventário de Depressão Infantil CDI, normatizado para o Brasil. Com base nesses dados, realiza oito sessões lúdicas grupais, semanais, de noventa minutos cada, através de estratégias sensório-motoras, simbólicas e sociais, com espaço para atividades espontâneas. Após as intervenções lúdicas, reavalia as crianças com os mesmos instrumentos da avaliação anterior. Os resultados indicam melhora no desempenho escolar e diminuição dos sintomas depressivos, com aumento da auto-estima e da segurança emocional, com reflexos em sua vida em geral, inclusive na escolar. As experiências vivenciadas nas situações lúdicas contribuíram para uma auto-avaliação subjetiva mais positiva pelas crianças, assim como para uma avaliação escolar melhor, em seus aspectos cognitivos e afetivo-emocionais integrados. Os dados apontam a importância da equipe técnica ao reconhecer precocemente os sintomas depressivos para realização de programas interventivos, utilizando o lúdico como facilitador para superação das dificuldades cognitivas e afetivas das crianças abrigadas

Eleição nas escolas: uma análise do impacto do diretor eleito sobre o desempenho educacional no Estado da Bahia

In Brazil, the selection of school principals is set in a decentralized manner by each state and city, such that processes may vary with time for a specific locality. In the state of Bahia, school principals were appointed by a higher political hierarchy until 2008, when schools under state administration started selecting principals by elections. The main goal of this work is to evaluate whether changing this specific rule affected students proficiency levels. This is achieved by using a panel data and difference-in-differences approachs that compares state schools (treatment group) to city schools (control group) that did not face a selection rule change and thus kept having their principals politically appointed. The databases used are Prova Brasil 2007, 2009 and 2011, the first one prior and the other two former to the policy change. Our results suggest that students attending schools with principals that are selected and elected have slightly lower mean proficiency levels both in mathematics and in portuguese exams than those attending schools with appointed principals. This result, according to the literature, could be related to perverse effects of selecting school administrators by vote, such as corporatism, clientelism and politicization of the school environment
