CONTINUING EDUCATION TEACHER AND SCORES BASIC EDUCATION DEVELOPMENT: THE PROCESS AND PRODUCT

: The present work has as its theme the continuing education of teachers and their close relationship with the Development Index of Basic Education (IDEB) in the early years. Its main objective is to offer to this level of education professionals and other interested parties, a discussion of ways to a more consistent performance in the classroom. To this end, we have made consideration of the municipal public policies for continuing education of teachers of Portuguese in order to reflect on the importance of planning of actions aimed at continuing education in the municipalities and their reflections in IDEB. The discussion will be subsidized by the propositions of Linguistics of Enunciation based on Bakhtin (1992, 2003) among others. Thus, to sustain the discussion, we selected a town in western Paraná, for which we will launch our eye on the public policy of continuing education and its impact on the teaching of Portuguese. These reflections are connected with the Center for Research Project organized by the Continuing Education for teachers of basic education in the early years: actions for literacy in cities with low IDEB the western Paraná, linked to the Post-graduate studies in Literature and Monitoring Program of Education - CAPES / INEP / SECAD.

"From the hidden side of dictatorship to the filter of memory: contemporary Brazilian literature - resistance and exile"

The article analyzes several aspects related to memoirs texts from the banished people of the Brazilian military dictatorship (1964-1985), mainly the domino effect of the narratives about resistance, the intertextuality among these works and the role of the banished ones in the effort of constructing a revolution which passed over national limits. Using autobiographical works such as the trilogy started by Fernando Gabeira with O que é isso, companheiro? [What is this, comrade?], the narratives of Alfredo Sirkis (Os carbonários and Roleta chilena) [The carbonari and Chilean roulette], Flávio Tavares (Memórias do esquecimento) [Memoirs of forgetfulness], Alex Polari (Em busca do tesouro) [In search of the treasure], and Carlos Eugênio Paz (Viagem à luta armada) [Trip to the armed struggle], among others, and as theoretical references authors like Andreas Huyssen, Beatriz Sarlo, Leonor Arfuch, Tzvetan Todorov and Michael Pollak, the article aims at reflecting about the memories of the banished and the political prisoners as a bruising affirmation of a crucial period of the Brazilian History and collective memory.

Variation and education in Linguistic Atlas of Brazil

This article focuses on one of the aspects treated in the project Linguistic Atlas of Brazil (ALiB Project) – the teaching of Brazilian Portuguese language. Therefore, this paper investigates how individuals’ language presents specific linguistic marks that construct, maintain and project the diversity in the questionnaire of the ALiB Project, based on the use of the linguistic variation. Thereby, it deals with the importance of linguistic atlas for the education process, highlighting the publication of some Brazilian regional atlas and the linguistic atlas of Brazil. Thus, it discusses the relevant contribution of these works to the knowledge of the linguistic reality in Brazil, as the atlas can optimize and motivate classroom activities and they can also be explored by other subjects of school curriculum. The methodology used was based on the performance of the following stages: 1) reading of the theoretical texts related to the proposed theme; 2) choice and formation of the corpus, made up of inquests of the ALiB Project in different capitals; 3) analysis of the corpus in order to verify linguistic marks that transmit the construction, projection and maintenance of the linguistic variation. The analyses of the selected inquiries try to study variation and its relationship to education by the informers from different age-groups in the different capitals of the country. The analysis of the corpus enabled the realization of register and documentation of lexical diversity of Portuguese language spoken in Brazil, according to the principles of the modern Pluridimensional Geolinguistics, in which the register follows specific parameters.
