Desenvolvimento moral: atividades e reflexões com alunos de educação especial

Pouco ou muito pouco se aborda sobre o julgamento moral nas escolas, sendo este tema, muitas vezes, ignorado ou transferido para os pais e para a sociedade, isentando a escola do compromisso de lidar com conflitos e discussões acerca do tema. No entanto, considera-se que a escola pode contribuir para o desenvolvimento moral dos alunos. O presente trabalho teve por objetivo elaborar, desenvolver e avaliar uma proposta visando observar e favorecer o desenvolvimento moral de alunos de uma escola especial. A proposta foi dividida em planejamento, desenvolvimento e análise das atividades. Para o planejamento foram realizadas observações, definidos os princípios e elaborado as atividades a serem realizadas. No desenvolvimento das atividades, visamos favorecer aspectos do desenvolvimento moral das crianças. Na análise das atividades, identificamos indicativos de alterações no comportamento de cooperação com os amigos e atendimento de regras.

Recursos coesivos de textos de alunos e professores da escola juruna: análise para uma contribuição ao ensino

A partir da constituição de 1988, em que os indígenas finalmente conseguiram um espaço para a preservação de seus direitos culturais, étnicos e lingüísticos, procurouse pensar em políticas eficazes que os garantissem, e uma delas, sem dúvida, é uma educação escolar indígena de qualidade, que busca se consolidar como “plurilíngüe e intercultural, específica e diferenciada, como necessária, indispensável e um direito”, tal qual vários pesquisadores ressaltam. Este é um passo muito importante, uma vez que, segundo Maher (2005), a educação indígena, desde a colonização até os anos 1970, era um verdadeiro massacre para esses povos. Porque, tomando Grupione (2006), os indígenas foram considerados ignorantes ao longo desse tempo e essas atitudes se justificavam sob o pretexto de “ajudá-los a serem civilizados”. Diante dessas questões, o ensino sobre leitura e produção de texto é fundamental enquanto instrumento para aprendizagem e para preservação cultural indígena e porque se propõe uma análise crítica de fato, cuja correção irá além de maniqueísmos de certo/errado, sempre visando especificidades de cada texto para se conceber quais conhecimentos atenderão melhor as necessidades de cada professor ou aluno, o que permite maior consciência textual e argumentativa. Estes são interesses dos próprios juruna, povo com quem trabalhamos, afirmados em seu Projeto Político Pedagógico, pela mesma idéia de preservação cultural e interação com os não-índios. São os próprios indígenas quem vêem a escola como meio de ascensão social, como afirma Ladeira (2004). Assim, nos posicionamos a favor de projetos de revitalização lingüística que promovam os direitos culturais e de uma educação escolar de qualidade

Utilização do protocolo anycast em ambientes virtuais distribuídos visando à escalabilidade do sistema

Distributed Virtual Environments (DVE) allow multiple users interact with a virtual world by sharing, manipulating objects. Each user has his/her own vision of this world and every changes of state of the environment are distributed among other users. Due to technological constraints, most systems for distributed virtual environments support a limited number of users. The major limitation for development of DVE scale are imposed by the communication system. As the number of users grows, the amount of bandwidth required to exchange information in real time among stations to upgrade the environment and keep it in a consistent state for all connected users. Based on this situation is proposed a framework that uses the protocol anycast in the application layer that provides a load balancing among servers in the region and aims at reducing the latency of message delivery between participants selecting the DVE server best suited for the region participant to connect to the environment

A empatia, a sensibilização e a formação de professores do ensino público para uma inclusão efetiva de alunos com necessidades educacionais especiais

Special education and inclusion of students with Special Educational Needs (SEN) in regular classrooms of public schools has being widely discussed in academic and political areas. From Salamanca Declaration signed in 1994, which established that the education of people with special needs should be guaranteed by public system, being offered within regular classrooms said. Along the inclusion process, has been observed an increasingly difficult for teachers to work with these special students. This difficulty comes from an incomplete or inadequate formation, resulting in an education that is not always inclusive. The present work aims to investigate what are the motivational factors that lead teachers, working in public schools, to seek continuing courses of formation in specialized educational services, and what are the possible impediments that eschew them from seeking such courses. Data were collected through questionnaires given to elementary school teachers, from public schools in the city of Rio Claro- SP. With their answer, it could be identified what are the motivational factors of the quest for continuing formation, as well as facts that obstruct this specialization. It could be observed that there is a need for constant training of the education professionals, for them to be able to appropriate of the inclusion as a pedagogical approach, not just a law and far from reality

Processos subjetivos na identificação da motivação dos alunos

In this work, we have some considerations about the interactive process between teacher and students, and we analyze the subjective aspects of how the teacher reacts from its interpretation of the student's motivation throughout his lecture. We utilized Vigotski's theories, about the importance of dealing with the social cognitive process, which may contribute to an efficient school learning and when the teacher is engaged and motivated is able to motivate and excite all students who are in their classroom. We therefore investigated how it relates to the constructs of Werstch, the arguments of the teacher and students' excitement

Investigação sobre a construção das noções espaço-geométricas por alunos da educação infantil
