Dança e multiculturalismo: possibilidades e dificuldades en educação física escolar

A dança, como um dos elementos da Cultural Corporal de Movimento, faz parte dos conteúdos a serem abordados nas aulas de Educação Física escolar. No entanto, isso não ocorre freqüentemente. O ensino da dança fica restrito apenas a dias de comemorações e em festas juninas que, geralmente, são organizados pelos professores dessa disciplina. Diante disso, esse estudo teve como objetivo elaborar, implementar e avaliar um programa de dança na perspectiva multicultural, que contribua com a formação do cidadão na escola. Mais especificamente, aplicar um programa de dança na escola e avaliar as suas possibilidades e dificuldades. A metodologia utilizada baseou-se no referencial da pesquisa do tipo etnográfico. Para a realização desse estudo foi elaborado um projeto de dança sob uma visão multicultural. Esse programa, a princípio, atenderia uma turma mista de Educação Física de, aproximadamente, 35 alunos do Ensino Fundamental ciclo II de uma escola pública da cidade de Rio Claro – SP. Porém, o professor de Educação Física responsável pela sala participante do projeto não disponibilizou os meninos, porque segundo ele, as meninas dançariam e os meninos ficariam na quadra jogando futebol. Assim, as aulas foram ministradas pela aluna-pesquisadora às meninas da sala que totalizaram, em torno de 20 garotas. O estudo teve duração de, aproximadamente, dois meses e meio. As alunas tiveram contato com diversos estilos de dança, tais como: danças circulares sagradas, danças de salão, jazz, dança de rua, entre outros. Na investigação foi utilizado um diário de campo para a análise descritiva de comportamentos e atitudes a partir da observação das relações interpessoais das alunas. Foi realizada também uma avaliação inicial, uma avaliação final e uma entrevista com 5 alunas. As relações de...(Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

Um estudo sobre a implementaçã odo programa etnomatemática no contexto escolar

This research aims to present the Ethnomathematics Program, created by D'Ambrosio (1984), as a proposal for the teaching of mathematics, making it contextualized, meaningful and a program able to form critical and creative citizens, capable of transform reality. By presenting from Ethnomathematics perspective the conception of the activities, scholar curriculum and current evaluation system, a possibility of innovation on nowadays education system is opened, a system that is characterized by D'Ambrosio as obsolete. For the implementation of this proposal, a change on the teacher's attitude appears as necessary, a new attitude that makes active interferences during the learning process, and uses previous knowledge acquired by the student throughout their experiences as a starting point on teaching process. The approach between Ethnomathematics perspective and Mathematics Program provides a better opportunity for the students to construct mathematical knowledge. It is important to emphasize that the Ethnomathematics is as an interdisciplinary as a transdisciplinary program, which means that the Program is not restricted just for education and development of mathematics

Basquetebol X temas transversais: a produção de material didático audiovisual para a Educação Física escolar

This study aimed, first, produce a kind of educational materials in audiovisual format, to the Physical Education, addressing the Transversal Themes in view of the basketball. The themes chosen were Cultural Plurality, addressing the basketball in a wheelchair, and Labor and Consumer Affairs, addressing the marketing and exploitation of labor force that the company is Nike. There is no doubt the importance of media production in contemporary society, as one of its main languages, but of little relevance in the school environment, especially in the area of Physical Education. In a second phase aimed at evaluating the feasibility of this material both as a teaching strategy, such as content of learning lessons. The evaluation was made through a discussion in the form of focus groups with 10 students from 9 th grade of elementary school. The results showed that despite an initial rejection of the material as a teaching strategy because of the history that Physical Education has for several years, students were open to new ways of learning. Since the results on the material, such as learning content, showed that the videos were able to address and the Transversal Themes and meet the need for procedural content with the proposed activities. With this, we realize that students are willing to discuss matters that are not always addressed, but now, with the creation of national curriculum standards should be reflected in the classroom

Associação entre posicionamento do aluno na sala de aula e desempenho escolar

This research was aimed at analyzing whether there is an association between the positioning of the pupil in the classroom and his academic performance, as well as to diagnose the main factors underlying the association. Thus, this study analyzed 4 Elementary School II institutions of both public and private educational systems, in Botucatu, São Paulo, Brazil during a school year bimester. To register the positions students were seated, 29 similar classes (containing 6 rows x 6 columns) were investigated, each one with around 30 students, which resulted in a sampling of 859 students. For the questionnaire application, which objective was to verify the main reason for students’ seat choice, the same 29 classes were investigated. However, the sampling number was reduced to 692 students. In turn, for the collection of school performance and absence percentage of each student for the bimester in question, teachers’ evaluation books were used. As a result, it was found that the lower the percentage of the student's absences, the greater is their performance at school, and the greater their performance at school is, the closer up front to the board they are seated. Finally, the closer up to the board they are seated, the more their motivation and interest in learning increase. Therefore, there is an association between the position of a student in the classroom and his or her academic performance, where the association is conditioned by the motivation and interest in learning

A voz inicial dos professores sobre o processo de inclusão escolar num curso de formação continuada em EAD

The inclusive classroom, focused on individual differences, it is becoming more frequent and constant within mainstream schools. For this practice to be successful, there must be a different work by teachers, methodology, teaching procedures, adapted equipment and materials.

Avaliação, gestão e novas possibilidades para emancipação na perspectiva de transformação social

Este texto discorre sobre diferentes concepções de avaliação, que, uma vez materializadas nos instrumentos, devem possibilitar reflexões sobre o estado do objeto avaliado e sobre as práticas educativas que promovem mudanças ou se perpetuam pela reprodução. Destaca a questão do uso de indicadores de forma crítica e busca, nos argumentos que fundamentam essa criticidade, o respaldo para reorientar a gestão educativa. Nesse sentido, discute a intencionalidade da avaliação institucional e dos programas de avaliação de resultados dos sistemas de ensino. Oferece ainda algumas pistas para que, na perspectiva da gestão, as ações avaliativas, pelo seu potencial regulador, tenham participação efetiva na qualificação dos processos educativos. A avaliação, enquanto instrumento de regulação do processo de gestão, o reconstrói.

Alfabetização no ensino fundamental de nove anos: avaliação discente e suas implicações para as práticas pedagógicas

This paper focuses data from discussions done with teachers who work with the three early years of nine-years elementary chool, in two Municipal schools of São Paulo inland, in order to investigate the students’ literacy degree. Considering a test applied to students of three early years of those schools, this study deals with the literacy performance results of 153 children of third school year. It also relates data of this test with some aspects that have characterized the literacy teachers’ practices. Initially, it presents considerations about the literacy process in extent of nine-years elementary school and some implications for the teachers’ practices. Then, it emphasizes the test results of third year students, pointing out what skills were already developed by them in literacy process and what skills must be improved. Results show that those children are not literated. They demonstrate difficulties in the appropriation of reading and writing skills, even in the third school year. It suggests the teachers’ need to reorganize their practices in classroom and to revise students’ literacy process, allowing to every student the full appropriation of reading and writing.
