Análise documental: concepções do universo acadêmico brasileiro em Ciência da Informação

Considering document analysis as one of the theoretical approaches of information organization, besides subject cataloguing and indexing it carries out a theoretical research on its conceptual dimension as a background to a further analysis of the Brazilian academic environment specially in terms of conceptions of document analysis as well as its interdisciplinary relationships. The results reveal a strong theoretical influence of Jean-Claude Gardin´s ideas which are deeply devoted to the processes involved in document analysis. It also confirms the high level of interdisciplinary relationships to Logical-linguistic disciplines. Neverthless, it feels the need of the Brazilian researches in assuming their theoretical influences in such a way to minimize the huge terminological diversity while naming the specific concepts of the area.

O uso da informação no âmbito acadêmico: o comportamento informacional de pós-graduandos da área de Educação

This study reports part of a broader research about information behavior of graduate students in Education. The research´s participants were nine masters and doctoral students from a graduate program in Education at a public university. The focus group technique was used to collect the data. The focus group sessions were observed and recorded. The recorded data were transcribed, categorized and then analyzed using the technique of content analysis. The main aspects achieved were: i) Identification’s forms of information resources for research; ii) Internet as source of information; iii) Academic Library’s services and resources use; iv) Training to use of electronic data base; v) Difficulties to perform the search; vi) Advisor’s influence on research development; and vii) Environmental factors that affect information seeking behavior. The main results reveal that the identification of information sources occurs, mainly, through references quoted on studies of the researched area; as well as the advisors’ influence in the information seeking behavior of the participants. The results, also, disclose some environmental aspects, as example, lack of time to search and discomfort caused by the libraries’ environment that influenced negatively the information behavior of the studied group.

A produção acadêmico-científica do Brasil na área das altas habilidades/superdotação no período de 1987 a 2011

Among students with special educational needs, subjects of special education, are those with high ability/giftedness, a complex phenomenon that requires the participation of education professionals and researchers to foster the potential of development of these students. In this sense, we aimed to identify and analyze thesis and dissertations that they propose to investigate the theme high ability/giftedness, verifying participation of the area of education in these studies. The study was done through a literature review, guided by the following questions: Have the researches on high ability/giftedness been growing in recent years? What is the participation of education area in those researches? What are the issues related to high ability/ giftedness addressed in Education? The results show that the institutions present an increasing trend and there is a predominance of education area in this scientific production. However, there is an imbalance between the institutions that aim to investigate the theme in Brazilian regions, as well as among the cases covered by these researches on high ability/giftedness.

Entre o acadêmico e o jornalístico: análise da coluna de crítica literária Prosa de Sábado, do suplemento Sabático

The literary criticism was developed in Brazil in the period that comprehends the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. During that time, the mean of dissemination of the criticism were the footnotes of the newspapers, places in which literature was discussed and the critics expressed their personal impressions about literary works with the objective of orientating the good taste of the readers. With the progressive evolution of journalism and of the newspaper's audience, the criticism columns became incompatible with the informative part of the periodicals, being transferred to the literary supplements, during a transition phase, until it was concentrated in the universitary field. This change in the paradigms of the production of criticism also caused a change in the profile of the literary critics and in the criteria to do the criticism. Before, if the critics were professionals that only needed to have enough erudition to judge the literary works, they turn into literature experts and need to use scientific methodologies in the literary analysis, while the cultural journalist begins to look at the events and literary works as products which belong to a market that needs to be reported. This research proposes studying and comparing the critics published in the column Prosa de Sábado, of the literary supplement Sabático, produced by Silviano Santiago, critic of an academic origin, and Sérgio Augusto, journalist critic, with the objective of identifying similarities and contrasts between them, and analyse the relation of this critics with their distinct fields of literary legitimation, as well as reflecting about the presence of the literary criticism and of the critics in the current press

Saber docente e acadêmico: possibilidade para uma formação coerente

O presente trabalho apresenta a experiência vivenciada, no ambiente universitário, de um grupo de alunos da Pedagogia que se envolveram no projeto de extensão “Grupo de Formação: Diálogo e Alteridade” no ano de 2010, oferecido na UNESP de Rio Claro. O objetivo geral do trabalho é compreender, a partir de análise de documentos, os processos formativos desencadeados nesses alunos, no contexto desse projeto e entender as contribuições do mesmo para a formação inicial. Este trabalho discute, a partir de uma pesquisa bibliográfica, os conceitos de saberes docentes, diálogo e trabalho coletivo. Os dados serão obtidos a partir da leitura de uma série de documentos: caderno de registro do grupo, caderno de registro da pesquisadora e as avaliações elaboradas pelos participantes do primeiro e do segundo semestre do ano de 2010. A partir da discussão dos textos e das trocas das experiências desses alunos (ao participar de um projeto de pesquisa na escola e de um curso de extensão para professores da rede municipal de ensino), o projeto de extensão, promovia em nós, universitários, um processo formativo diferente dos moldes convencionais. Isto repercutiu e permitiu uma complementação da formação acadêmica justamente por estar vinculada às experiências advindas da prática docente, e, com isso, uma visão diferenciada e mais próxima da realidade escolar. Busco, nesse contexto, analisar os saberes construídos por esses estudantes ao longo do projeto. Enfatizo as mudanças e questionamentos que foram necessários para que escola e universidade deixassem de ser meros espaços físicos e que começassem a ser parte de uma relação que permitiu a modificação nos aspectos formativos desses estudantes

Práticas de leitura e escrita em contexto acadêmico: relações (hiper)textuais singulares

The present article aims at reflecting about the discursive practices of writing and reading on the net, more specifically about the writing and reading methods used by the undergraduate and graduated teachers, based on an internet search engine. It’s of interest to investigate: i) the (hyper) textual relations established in the context thought as permitted by the electronic resources; ii) the discursive marks that arise (are arisen) in a singular way of reading (and/or writing). The set of material was produced during a university extension course about reading and cyberspace, whose context consisted of a drawing production of the reading process on an internet search engine, on the basis of the signifier “apple”. Based on the French Discourse Analysis and assumptions from the New Literacy Studies, we intended to discuss the operating procedures of the internet search and the effects of meanings produced by the subject during his/her reading/writing process.

Extensão universitária e trabalho voluntário na formação do acadêmico em odontologia

The aim of the present study was to point out the importance of the experience of undergraduate dental students in extra-curricular activities and volunteer work, as a means through which to gain essential knowledge and abilities for their professional lives. A literature review of the Medline, Scielo, and Lilacs databases was carried out in an attempt to select articles related to the university extension and volunteer work of undergraduate dental students. It is still extremely difficult to include university extension and volunteer work as an important activity in Dentistry courses. However, the presentday work market demands professionals who have expertise not only in dental techniques, but also in the socio-cultural characteristics of communities, considering that people need to be comprehensive in their psychosocial aspects in order to be treated as a complete professional. Therefore, university dentistry courses should give equal consideration to both oral rehabilitation skills and the promotion of general healthcare, acquired mainly through extracurricular activities, in an attempt to redeem the integral education of the healthcare professional. Moreover, students should pay closer attention to the opportunities offered during their undergraduate courses, as the work market for dentists is becoming more and more competitive. Moreover, the dentist whose professional life is limited to the dental office will most certainly forgo the opportunity to act in other social areas as well as the recognition that comes with such acts.
