Os sentidos sobre o professor e sua formação em 15 anos de Zetetiké: 1993 - 2007

This research presents a study on mathematics teacher education, examining the bibliographic production in 15 years of the journal Zetetiké (1993-2007), totalizing 140 papers. From these, 49 were classified as ‘teacher formation’, thus constituting the corpus of the investigation. The research focused on three units of recording and analysis: (i) problems of research; (ii) the meanings of ‘being a teacher’ and their ‘duties’; and (iii) the meanings of ‘teacher’s education’. For the processes of categorization we use Textual Analysis, which allowed us to observe some trends. Regarding the problems of research we found that the research actions involve a range from: to report, disclose, describe, identify up to study, discuss, understand, evaluate. With reference to ‘being teacher’ and its ‘duties’ in the whole period of this study it were pointed problems related to the mathematical content and to the pedagogical project of the school unit, with 30 papers giving prescriptions for the teachers actions in its educational context. With regard to the meanings on teacher education, the most frequent references concern: the functions of teacher formation; what is expected of the teacher during and after the education processes; and the emphasis on the importance of initial formation for mathematics teacher’s education.

Visões de autonomia do professor e sua influência na prática pedagógica

Currently many studies have highlighted the importance of development autonomy of teachers to improve the quality of education. Our study aimed to explore the concepts of autonomy presented that teachers working in kindergarten and first grades of elementary school. Our aim was to understand how these concepoes helped or hindered the development of the action of the teacher second Contreras (2002). The results showed that the conceptions, presented by the teacher, were high ly individualistic, demonstrate a professional focused only on matters relating to the didactic and pedagogic classroom.

A teoria, a prática, o professor e a educação ambiental: algumas reflexões

The acceleration of economic and scientific development caused by the production system and mechanistic science, have created new power structures and new political and social problems, including environmental ones, consolidating a period of widespread crisis in different spheres of society. In this context, reflection about the major causes of environmental problems is necessary in the field of environmental education. Therefore, considering that the current environmental crisis is directly related to the mode and the devices of production of the capitalist system, initiatives on environmental education should reflect, from a historical and dialectical process, on what is advocated by capitalist society. Considering the various theoretical-practical concepts and approaches in environmental education, the principles of Critical Environmental Education can provide conditions to confront the structural crisis that we are facing, through the educational process. It is a political process of reflection and critical appropriation of knowledge, attitudes, values and behaviors that aims to contribute to build a sustainable society from the social and environmental points of view. We intend to articulate it through the theoretical formulations of Historical-Critical Pedagogy with the purpose of presenting a reflection that may contribute to a pedagogic response to environmental issues, especially regarding the formation of teachers who develop projects in schools. Thus, this present study intends to highlight the contributions of the philosophy of praxis in the formation of environmental educators, grounded in theoretical aspects of Critical Environmental Education.

Análise experimental da resistência à corrosão e da velocidade de corrosão: uma proposta pedagógica

In this work it is proposed the use of a chemical activity, in which a corrosion process occurs, aiming to provide to the student relationship among the learning concepts and corrosion phenomena that occur everyday. It is suggested that the experiment development is based on Vygotsky theory, so that students work in groups, which may facilitate social interaction among students and results discussion among groups under professor guidance. This proposal can provide the involved concepts learning, as well as student training such as a critical and reflexive individual.

Profissão professor: olhares de professores de Educação Física escolar

No presente artigo abordou-se o processo de profissionalização e formação acadêmica em Educação Física, buscando evidenciar as implicações surgidas em decorrência da trajetória de formação do professor dessa área. Embora esta se configure também como uma profissão docente, sua história apresenta particularidades com relação às outras áreas da docência escolar. Diante disto, o objetivo do estudo consistiu em estabelecer um diálogo entre as dimensões da profissionalização e da formação de professores de Educação Física para auxiliar na compreensão da situação atual da disciplina e do processo de construção da profissionalidade docente. Em articulação com a revisão da literatura foram discutidas as concepções de um grupo representativo de professores de Educação Física escolar da rede pública de ensino estadual de São Paulo - Brasil, coletadas por intermédio de entrevistas semi-estruturadas. Constatou-se que para os depoentes persistem, ainda, equívocos no imaginário da comunidade escolar a respeito do valor e da função da disciplina Educação Física para o desenvolvimento do alunado, sendo a disciplina freqüentemente indicada como sinônimo de esporte. Entende-se que a compreensão da trajetória dessa profissão até o momento (que pode ser considerada uma profissão recente), assim como os fatores que contribuíram para a desvalorização do professor da área, são importantes recursos para começar a pensar o futuro. Concluiu-se que cabe, especialmente, à formação docente constituir-se num componente que efetivamente contribua para a (re)construção da profissionalidade do professor e para a legitimação da disciplina Educação Física no campo educacional.

Um estudo sobre a intervenção com o professor de educação física para a inclusão educacional do aluno com deficiência visual

It was aimed to identify how the physical education teachers worked to include a student with visual impairment; intervene with the teacher from the identified necessities and assess the intervention. Data were collected in three stages: 1) Weekly monitoring and filming the classes, 2) intervention by the reflection of videos coming from the previous step and suggesting new actions, 3) development of filming for evaluating the intervention. Before the intervention, it was identified that the explanation of the activities happened collectively. It was held the physical help as the first form of instruction, the student with visual impairment participation occurred depending on the company of a classmate who held hands and did the activities together. Along the intervention it was reflected about the structure of the classes, the ways of explanation of the activities and the strategies and the resources to assure an enjoyable participation of students with visual impairments. The training of peer tutors was a strategy used. After the intervention it was identified in the classroom the assistance of the trained peer tutors; the maintenance of oral explanation and demonstration, though, the first way to explanation for the student with visual impairment started to be the oral tip.

Possibilidades e limitações da prática do professor na experiência com a temática energia e desenvolvimento humano no ensino de ciências

Reflections on the Movement STSE, in basic education, have pointed to the introduction of discussions involving the socio-scientific issues, as a way of organization and development of forming processes in science classes. In this sense, the research that we developed sought to bring to physics classes of basic education, the discussions surrounding the relationship between science, technology, society and environment issues related to production and access to electricity and human development. In order to interpret formative aspects of this approach was achieved through a short course. Thus, we discuss in this paper, the discourse of students and a professor of physics who participated in this short course. Therefore, we seek in discourse analysis, reflection on this practice, which has limitations such as lack of recognition of this type of training status by the students as well as possibilities represented by the establishment of training spaces that contribute to the discussion of socio-scientific issues.
