A aprendizagem do desenho e da escrita: uma experiência com ideogramas japoneses no ensino fundamental

The aim of this paper is to gather research information and studies posted about the importance of social environment in the development of symbolic systems on children. Languages verbal, visual and written are interrelated representation systems, although each one has its own characteristics and elements. The objective of this paper is to elucidate the importance of linking the various existing types of language and therefore the importance of a coordinate approach also in the teaching-learning situations of these systems. The work also intends to disclose how thin is the line that separates writing of drawing, both of them as representative systems. As well as to show how visual information and language are intrinsically linked as thought happens by the connections between them. The work includes the report of an activity with Japanese ideograms done in the author's teacher's training at formal education. It also approaches pictographic, creative and poetic aspects of ideograms that brings up new ways of thinking and representing symbolically just like the methods of artistic language

Intervenção do PET-Saúde para a melhoria do conhecimento sobre doenças sexualmente transmissíveis e gravidez em adolescentes que frequentam a rede pública de ensino

A transmissão de Doenças Sexualmente Transmissíveis (DSTs) tem aumentado significativamente nos últimos anos entre os adolescentes, como apresentam os dados do Boletim Epidemiológico de AIDS publicado pelo Ministério da Saúde, juntamente com o aumento do número de adolescentes grávidas. Dessa forma, o projeto de extensão PET - Saúde objetiva transmitir um conhecimento prevencionista aos jovens vulneráveis a essa situação, trabalhando com estudantes do ciclo II do ensino fundamental dos colégios municipais de Nova Europa. Os alunos que participaram da atividade responderam voluntariamente um questionário antes e após a atividade, que avaliava qualitativamente o conhecimento que possuíam acerca do tema DSTs e gravidez na adolescência. Através da análise desses questionários, foi possível perceber que os jovens possuíam conhecimento sobre o uso de preservativo para a prevenção de DSTs e gravidez (86,9% e 82,8%), mas que o mesmo não se aplicava quanto ao conhecimento de sintomas de DSTs (66,8%), que foi aprimorado após a atividade (80%). Além disso, as meninas apresentaram conhecimento acerca de outros métodos contraceptivos diferentes do preservativo e importância da vacina contra o HPV, provavelmente pelo fato dos meninos lidarem com a vida sexual de uma forma diferente. Apesar de conhecimento prévio sobre o assunto, ações educativas contínuas podem aumentar o conhecimento dos jovens sobre DSTs e gravidez.

O uso da atividade guia (brincar) como catalisadora do desenvolvimento do pensamento e da linguagem

To select pedagogical practices that allow the development of psychic function thinking and psychic function language. It's necessary understanding the whole psyche human, postulated by Vygotsky. The action of playing, the main activity of the children in the childhood education, can enhance the resilience of the psychic functions, once it provides stimulus and may include teacher's intervention during its deployment. For a better intervention, this planning in light of a theory is primordial, as well as the reflection on this practice. This research aimed to find the moment of the activities that took place the development of these functions, language and thought, in children who are in the early years of the childhood education. The survey was conducted through a qualitative interpretation approach, as action research. Data analysis allowed us to observe planned teaching practices in which enabled the development of language and thought and consequently a qualitative leap in the other psychic functions
