Inovação na aprendizagem de língua portuguesa através dos contos populares

A investigação propõe-se a expor o processo, desenhando as condições e motivações que envolvem a aprendizagem de Língua Portuguesa na educação brasileira. Tais aspectos apresentam-se relevantes na medida em que o maior desafio é de incentivar o despertar para a leitura e escrita nos aprendizes das séries iniciais do Ensino Fundamental de maneira inovadora, rompendo com as práticas pedagógicas tradicionais. A questão que norteia a investigação é a seguinte: é inovadora a prática pedagógica baseada em contos populares? Para tanto, utilizou-se a literatura existente relacionada à Inovação Pedagógica e aos contos populares. Como suporte teórico, partiu-se desse ponto para melhor compreensão tanto da linha de pesquisa como do objeto de estudo, contribuindo para o enriquecimento do conhecimento não só no meio acadêmico como também para a sociedade como um todo. O objetivo deste estudo é descrever, interpretar e analisar o projeto em andamento “Ler e Escrever: contos populares, um ponto a mais na aprendizagem de Língua Portuguesa”. Isso será realizado a partir dos aprendizes e do professor polivalente, no momento em que se envolvem com a prática pedagógica baseada em contos populares, no ensino-aprendizagem de leitura e escrita de Língua Portuguesa, na norma-padrão, nas séries iniciais do Ensino Fundamental. Esta pesquisa justifica-se por oferecer uma contribuição original ao campo da Inovação Pedagógica através da investigação do referido projeto em andamento, pioneiro no município de Paudalho (Pernambuco, Brasil). Tal projeto é desenvolvido na Escola Municipal Paulo VI, especificamente a sala de aula de 3º ano do 1º ciclo do Ensino Fundamental. O trabalho de campo se deu sob a ótica da abordagem etnográfica. Os instrumentos incluíram as técnicas: observação participante, entrevista não estruturada, análise de documentos oficiais e pessoais e todos os registros feitos no diário de campo. Diante do exposto, a prática pedagógica baseada em contos populares se materializa em caráter inovador.

Já num segundo momento, tratamos das questões metodológicas (capítulo quarto), cuja base foi a etnopesquisa orientado por Macedo (2006), a qual teve como instrumentos a observação participante, o uso de entrevistas e de questionários semiestruturados, além da análise documental, cujos resultados são apresentados no capítulo quinto, o qual traz como título “Educação informal e movimentos populares: a importância do ensino da música no resgate da cidadania de crianças assistidas pela ONG Orquestra Cidadã como uma forma de inovação pedagógica” diante do qual pudemos perceber o caráter inovador do trabalho empreendido pela orquestra em estudo, que na busca de atingir os objetivos pretendidos expande sua metodologia para a realidade de seus alunos e com isso alcança saltos de desenvolvimento, trazendo para as crianças e jovens um novo olhar sobre si mesmos e sobre o seu futuro.

Cultura organizacional e qualidade dos serviços turísticos :um estudo no setor de restaurantes

The present study seeks to describe the features and peculiarities of the relationship between organizational culture and the quality of tourism services, specifically in the restaurant sector, attempting to contribute toward maintaining the tourism sector of the city of Natal/RN. Thus, a descriptive and correlational study, with qualitative and quantitative approaches, of thirty-seven restaurants that are located in areas that compose the tourism corridor of Natal was undertaken. To collect the quantitative dada, the Organizational Culture Evaluation instrument of Cameron and Quinn (2006) was applied and the SERVPERF instrument of Cronin and Taylor (1992) was used to measure the quality of the services. The results suggest that the Clan and Innovation Cultures are associated with better levels of quality of services than those of the Market and Hierarchy Cultures. The relationships that were identified in this study are consistent with results found in other studies and the information reported here can serve as a basis for managers of the restaurant sector to reach excellence in their services, satisfying their customers and contributing to maintaining the tourism sector

Políticas públicas e associativismo no RN: experiências populares

Rural Popular experiences, socially organized on the constructions of the dams at Espinharas River, Serra Negra do Norte, which have been investigated, have reached in positive results. Several institutions, such as the City and State Power, multilaterals, governmental and non-governmental financial organizations, commonly refer to the success of such experiences. What success are they referring to? Is it recognized by family rural workers? What about institutional parts, how do they evaluate such experience? Is there legal continuity on such association structure? What kinds of gains have there been with such experiences? Has the association structure become any stronger? In search for demystifying the process, it has been made a research on classic and contemporaneous authors, as well as the interview of ten institutional parts, and twenty rural parts involved on the process, as well as the analysis of thirty-eight of the associations. It was concluded that the applied social public policies had resulted in heterogeneous social-economical process that has fulfilled the first step of a planning (not yet documented, but know by some institutional parts which lead, and still lead such social initiative). In the coming years the associations are to have a great potential for development, with the dams, as well as other projects. This persistence and external support, when integrated may have great deeds come to reality

"Botar corpo":um estudo sobre corpo e sexualidade com meninas de camadas populares

Ce travail est une contribution aux études anthropologiques conduites sur la sexualité et le corps dans les classes populaires. Il cherche à analyser le processus de construction des représentations du corps ainsi que sa relation avec la sexualité et le genre, à partir d une approche de la construction sociale. En ce sens, la ligne directrice de cette discussion est d une part le concept de corps compris comme une construction socioculturelle propre à chaque société, d autre part les différents usages et représentations dont chaque classe sociale investit le corps. A cette fin, une recherche de caractère ethnographique a été réalisée auprès d adolescents âgés de treize à dix-sept ans, résidents d un quartier populaire de Natal (Brésil), le Guarapes. Conduit d avril 2005 à juillet 2006, ce travail de terrain a mêlé observation directe et entretiens avec des adolescents des deux sexes

Luta pela terra, luta pela palavra: história de vida e formação de duas educadoras populares do campo

This project has resulted from a reunion between me and two teachers with whom I had already worked, pedagogically counseling them during the execution of the Project of Youngsters and Adults Schooling at the Agrarian Reform Settlements in the State of Sergipe (PAJA/PRONERA) between 2002 and 2003. The matter that really motivated the research was related to the essential principle that guided the accomplishment of the PAJA s teachers education and professionalization: understanding their reality and knowing their needs, promoting the dialogue between scientific and common sense knowledge. Taking as a reference the fact that the teachers education is not restricted to the academic qualification, that is, that it is a part of the educational process, which, in turn, is a result of each one s personal background, dialectically individual and collective, the access to the teachers reality and needs was accomplished by studying their backgrounds, especially their school and professional career. They, inevitably, focused themselves on the country life s social and cultural context, that could be better understood by living together with the teachers during the twenty-seven days I stayed in the Golfo s settlement, located in the town named Pacatuba/SE. The approach to the teachers lives through their stories and the daily contact proved how much Science is still distant from the peasants routine, sometimes being presented to them as a finished product . That way, the dialog between those two categories and the expectation of the country life s social and cultural conditions, together with the education, in which teachers have an essential role, still remain as a challenge

Práticas populares de cuidado à criança: o saber/fazer de cuidadoras

Popular practices correspond to the resources used by households, lay people and popular therapists, whose perception of knowledge is constructed in the everyday. In this context, the sick child can become vulnerable to be dependent on a family caregiver, who often decide to employ popular practices. Thus, the child care should be shared between carer and health professional. However, they know little about the resources that the family uses to detect a grievance in infant. Therefore, the present research aimed to analyse the use of popular practices by caregivers of children with zero to five years old. We conducted an exploratory and descriptive study with a qualitative approach, together with 15 caregivers of children who were treated at the Joint Unit Felipe Shrimp, located in Natal, Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil. To select the participants, they should be age and above 18 years; be caregivers of children up to five years of age; and reside in the area ascribed the Joint Unit Felipe Shrimp. The data collection took place between September and October 2013, through in depth interview. This step was preceded by the approval of the Health Department of the city of Natal; the direction of the Joint Unit Felipe Shrimp; as well as, the Committee on Ethics in Research from the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte with Certificate of Presentation and Consideration Ethics, No 15467013.8.0000.5537. Furthermore, the interviewees formally authorized their participation in the research by signing the consent form. The data were treated according to the technique of content analysis in the form of thematic analysis according to Bardin. This process, four categories emerged: "Types of popular practices used in the care of the child"; "Source of information of popular practices"; "Results obtained with popular practices"; "Factors that hinder the adoption of common practices." The results showed the use of popular practices by caregivers in the case of illness to children such as the homemade preparations with medicinal plants and folk healers. The family environment was referenced as the main learning space and spread of popular practices, which are influenced by cultural relations present in this context. As to the results obtained with popular features, the caregivers said to be satisfactory, and this triggers a feeling of confidence and acceptability of such measures. It is concluded that the use of popular practices in child care persists in everyday most of the participants, despite the hegemony of allopathic therapy. The caregivers stated that such practices are effective and easy to obtain, being secured in context by popular culture. In addition, health professionals, especially nurses, were seldom mentioned by the caregivers as to the information concerning popular resources used by them, which suggests the weakness in dialogic process of negotiating practices between both of them
