O Discurso Oficial da Qualidade em Educação: análise dos documentos legais da Secretaria de Estado de Educação de São Paulo

Este artigo tem por objetivo analisar a concepção de escola pública de qualidade que se encontra implícita ou explicitamente expressa nos documentos oficiais expedidos pela Secretaria Estadual de Educação do Estado de São Paulo no período compreendido entre os anos de 1997 e 1998, período de grandes transformações na rede de ensino paulista. A análise basear-se-á em dois campos de entendimento do conceito de qualidade que parecem configurar-se na década de 1990: qualidade associada a resultados acadêmicos e qualidade como direito que se expressa também no direito de acesso ao conhecimento. Para tanto se realizou o levantamento, a organização e a análise de todos os documentos oficiais que se relacionavam à temática da qualidade no que refere a etapa obrigatória de escolarização: ensino fundamental (7 a 14 anos).

Educação em saúde bucal na visão de acadêmicos de odontologia

Aim: To analyze dental students' view concerning Oral Health Education. Materials and Methods: The present research, using both qualitative and quantitative approaches, addresses aspects related to dental students' understanding of Oral Health Education, the value that they attach to this practice in the school environment, as well as the importance of their participation in these and other activities during their studies in dentistry. Results: Although dental students recognize the importance of Oral Health Education in the school environment,as well as the importance of their own participation within these activities, their perception of "Oral Health Education" is reductionist and focused primarily on the disease. Conclusion: It is well-known that these findings are reflections and consequences of an established context within a university education. It is therefore necessary that these professional educators perform an in-depth rethinking of the dental practice, in an attempt to develop methodologies based on Health Education in their own teaching practices.
