Uma análise da educação física inclusiva nas escolas públicas da rede municipal de Maceió

Introdução: A Educação Inclusiva surge como um modelo de escola que fomenta o ingresso e permanência de todos os alunos em um único sistema de ensino. Particularmente, no que compete à educação física inclusiva, esta é a Educação Física Adaptada, aplicada em condições especiais, visando uma população especial que necessita de estímulos particulares de desenvolvimento motor e funcional. Objetivo geral: Compreender as práticas de ensino de Educação Física Inclusiva em escolas públicas de Maceió. Como objetivos específicos pretende-se saber o que pensam os professores e gestores pedagógicos sobre a educação inclusiva e Educação Física Inclusiva; Conhecer as estratégias e estruturas escolares para a sua implementação; Identificar a preparação dos professores para desenvolver educação física inclusiva; Saber se reconhecem benefícios na sua implementação; Descrever o apoio fornecido pela escola e município. Métodos: Estudo qualitativo de abordagem fenomenológica, realizado com uma amostra constituída por quatro professores de educação física e quatro gestores pedagógicos com idades entre 33 e 50 anos, que integravam o quadro ativo das escolas públicas do município de Maceió, Brasil, no ano de 2014. O instrumento de colheita de dados utilizado foi a entrevista semiestruturada, recorrendo-se ao método de análise de conteúdo. Resultados: Em linhas gerais os professores concordam com a escola inclusiva e apontam benefícios psicossociais e a nível do convívio social, contudo referem não possuir preparação adequada para trabalhar com alunos que têm necessidades educacionais especiais (NEE), assumindo alguns investimentos na formação contínua e na adaptação nos conteúdos e nas metodologias de ensino. A falta de material apropriado para lecionar e a situação estrutural precária que as escolas oferecem aos alunos são outros aspectos negativos que enfrentam, além deles não participarem da elaboração dos documentos legais da escola. Os gestores apontaram como principais dificuldades, a falta de apoio da secretaria municipal de educação (SEMED) para com os profissionais que trabalham diretamente com esses alunos, a falta de capacitação na área da inclusão e consequentemente o ensino fornecido por eles. Os profissionais acreditam que essa disciplina tem um papel importante no processo de inclusão dos alunos com NEE, pois contribui para a socialização, reforça a autoestima e a qualidade de vida, além de ajudar no desenvolvimento cognitivo, afetivo e psicomotor. Conclusões: O processo de inclusão ainda está caminhando a passos lentos, e particularmente nas aulas de educação física. São poucos os alunos com NEE que frequentam as escolas regulares e, menos ainda, os que participam das aulas de educação física. Entendemos que são necessárias mudanças para que a inclusão nas aulas de educação física possa realmente favorecer os alunos com NEE. Enfatizamos contudo, que a educação física não é a base para a inclusão escolar, porém, um bom acolhimento e uma boa qualidade de ensino podem ter efeitos significantes na vida desses estudantes.

Natural ventilation and indoor air quality in educational buildings: experimental assessment and improvement strategies

Indoor environmental conditions in classrooms, in particular temperature and indoor air quality, influence students’ health, attitude and performance. In recent years, several studies regarding indoor environmental quality of classrooms were published and natural ventilation proved to have great potential, particularly in southern European climate. This research aimed to evaluate indoor environmental conditions in eight schools and to assess their improvement potential by simple natural ventilation strategies. Temperature, relative humidity and carbon dioxide concentration were measured in 32 classrooms. Ventilation performance of the classrooms was characterized using two techniques, first by fan pressurization measurements of the envelope airtightness and later by tracer gas measurements of the air change rate assuming different envelope conditions. A total of 110 tracer gas measurements were made and the results validated ventilation protocols that were tested afterward. The results of the ventilation protocol implementation were encouraging and, overall, a decrease on the CO2 concentration was observed without modifying the comfort conditions. Nevertheless, additional measurements must be performed for winter conditions.

Resilience, perception of parental support and socio-educational intervention strategies

The gathering instruments were the Sociodemographic Questionnaire, Inventory Measuring State and Child Resilience (Martins, 2005) and Perception Parental Support Scale (Veiga, 2011). Results: Results show that there are signiicant differences in the values of the current, past and overall resilience, between the age groups children, revealing that children aged between 10 and 11 years have higher results in resilience than young people aged between 14 and 16 years. We also observed signiicant differences in the current resilience, depending on the parents’ marital status (higher when parents are married). We also observed positive and signiicant correlations between resilience and perception of parental support.
