A questão do meio na pedologia e suas implicações pedagógicas

Ce texte est une lecture de la conférence de Vygotsky sur la question de l'influence de la culture et de l'environnement sur la pédologie et cherche les implications pédagogiques des ces idées sur l'éducation des enfants et, en particulier, les petits enfants. Initialement, met en évidence la méthode de l'auteur que enseigne à ses auditeurs et lecteurs à penser dialectiquement, un défi que doit être confrontés par les lecteurs - habitués à penser avec la logique formelle - pour essayer de comprendre les études de Vygotsky. Deux éléments apportés par Vygotsky à la conférence sont prise pour réfléchir sur son importance pour le développement de l'enfant: la question de la langue orale et de son importance pour l'influence de la culture et de l'environnement sur le développement humain dans l'enfance et la spécificité du développement culturel dans l'enfance que dit que ce que nous pouvons parvenir à la fin ou à la suite du processus de développement est présente dans la culture depuis le début et touche et guide ce développement de l'enfant. Dans les deux cas, la discussion au sein de cette conférence de Vygotsky déclenche une révolution dans la pensée et l'action des enseignants.

O ensino da escrita e o desenvolvimento das pessoas com deficiência intelectual

This article proposes a theoretical reflection on the development of children with intellectual disabilities, regarding the importance and necessity of the process of learning the written language, from a historical-cultural point of view. For this approach, the course of development of a child disabled or not will occur according to cultural and social conditions experimented by him or her. Therefore, concerning the child with intellectual disabilities, his cultural condition, in dynamic relationship with the obstacles placed in its special condition, will be the source of his development. If the development of higher psychological functions is realized through the use of tools and if the people with intellectual disabilities present an inability to use these tools, there will be the need for aids so they can learn to use them in order to train and develop their psychic functions. In this process, education and written language acquisitions are fundamental ways of accessibility to the cultural world, a wider significance of communication in the world and to oneself. In short, the educators' comprehension about the importance of intentional teaching of written language and the historical process that envolves its development represents a fundamental contribution to the process of humanization of children with disabilities.

ADHD and medicalization: consideration of the senses and meanings of symptoms presented by children diagnosed

The present paper is a reflection on the diagnosis of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) and its relations to the process of medicalization as well as the meanings and perspectives apprehended through three case studies of children diagnosed with such disorder in a doctoral research in which the main purpose was to understand the meanings and peculiarities of ADHD symptomatology .We’ve utilized the model of qualitative research, grounded in psychoanalytic perspective, and conducted the psychodiagnosis for three children who were referred for psychological treatment. The survey found that those children had few experiences of both continence and frustration tolerance. It was evidenced how the school uses the logic of medicalization to try solving the problems with their children when it came to the school dimension. The variety of symptomatic manifestations and psychic dynamics presented by the cases that were studied revealed the weaknesses and inconsistencies of the referred diagnosis.
