Methodology of Care Humanitude in Promoting Self-care in Dependent People: An Integrative Review

Abstract. The aging of the population has led to an increase in the prevalence of chronic degenerative diseases and dependence. We need to implement humanized health care that will improve the quality of life and well-being of these people and help maintain their autonomy and self-care. Objective: To identify the implications of the caring in Humanitude in promoting self-care in the dependent person. Methods: Integrative review of the literature of the period between 2007 and 2015, using the databases Medline, EBSCO and Google Scholar. In using the PI[C]OD methodology and criteria for inclusion and exclusion, we obtained 54 items where 7 were selected for analysis. Results: There are several health benefits in the promotion of self-care, by ap-plying the Humanitude caring philosophy, mainly regarding the relationship be-tween the nurse and the patient. Conclusions: It is essential to develop further studies focused on the implications of caring in Humanitude in self-care in the dependent person.

Investigating university students' adaptation to digital learner course portfolio

Digital learner portfolios are of growing importance in higher education as the sector seeks new teaching-learning-assessment methods which promote students" autonomy as managers of their own virtual learning environment. The purpose of this study was to analyse descriptively the undergraduate students" perceptions, attitudes and behaviour when using an eportfolio to support their learning and assessment in practice based courses at two traditional Spanish universities. The participants were 88 students, who were studying through a blended learning mode. Data were collected through questionnaires: a computer experience survey, another which examined the psychological, pedagogical and technological dimensions of eportfolios use. Further, an individual overall reflection was obtained from each student to help gain an understanding of their experiences of using the eportfolio. A mixed-method analysis was applied in order to study the impact of this technological innovation on students and their satisfaction. The results showed that the students had positive opinions and self-efficiency through the eportfolio as a tool to manage their learning and assessment during a semester, especially from the second month of use. However, the expected impact on their learning was not so significant. Nevertheless, the students emphasised that the eportfolio was valuable as a personal developmental learning tool.

O uso pedagógico de uma seqüência didática para a aquisição de algumas idéias relacionadas ao conceito de números complexos

The aim of the present work is to contribute to the teaching-learning process in Mathematics through an alternative which tries to motivate the student so that he/she will learn the basic concepts of Complex Numbers and realize that they are not pointless. Therefore, this work s general objective is to construct a didactic sequence which contains structured activities that intends to build up, in each student s thought, the concept of Complex Numbers. The didactic sequence is initially based on a review of the main historical aspects which begot the construction of those numbers. Based on these aspects, and the theories of Richard Skemp, was elaborated a sequence of structured activities linked with Maths history, having the solution of quadratic equations as a main starting point. This should make learning more accessible, because this concept permeates the students previous work and, thus, they should be more familiar with it. The methodological intervention began with the application of that sequence of activities with grade students in public schools who did not yet know the concept of Complex Numbers. It was performed in three phases: a draft study, a draft study II and the final study. Each phase was applied in a different institution, where the classes were randomly divided into groups and each group would discuss and write down the concepts they had developed about Complex Numbers. We also use of another instrument of analysis which consisted of a recorded interview of a semi-structured type, trying to find out the ways the students thought in order to construct their own concepts, i.e. the solutions of the previous activity. Their ideas about Complex Numbers were categorized according to their similarities and then analyzed. The results of the analysis show that the concepts constructed by the students were pertinent and that they complemented each other this supports the conclusion that the use of structured activities is an efficient alternative for the teaching of mathematics

Modelagem matemática e os temas transversais na educação de jovens e adultos

Este trabalho teve como objetivo investigar em que termos a Modelagem Matemática, associada aos temas transversais, pode contribuir para melhorar o ensino-aprendizagem dos alunos em Matemática, na Educação de Jovens e Adultos (EJA). Para tal, foi realizada uma pesquisa de natureza qualitativa através da observação participante, com dados coletados a partir de atividades contextualizadas e atividades de Modelagem, questionários, entrevistas semiestruturadas e diário de campo. O referido trabalho mostra os encaminhamentos metodológicos da pesquisa que foi realizada em uma escola pública, em uma turma de EJA (4ª etapa), no município de Castanhal (PA), onde foram aplicadas atividades envolvendo os temas transversais: saúde, trabalho e consumo e meio ambiente. Através de falas, comportamentos e atitudes dos sujeitos nas atividades, e trocas de experiências com a professora-pesquisadora, coletou-se os dados para posteriores análises com base em referenciais teóricos. Os resultados apontam que, apesar das dificuldades iniciais no processo, os alunos, sujeitos da pesquisa, evoluíram na aprendizagem de conteúdos matemáticos. Concluiu-se que estes resultados apontam para a importância da inserção da Modelagem como estratégia de ensino, e que apesar de alguns obstáculos para a sua implementação no ensino, ela pode proporcionar ao aluno da EJA, aquisição de conteúdos matemáticos e possibilidades de torná-lo um cidadão crítico e reflexivo.

O processo histórico de disciplinarização da Metodologia do Ensino de Matemática

Desde as primeiras décadas do século XX, foi constatada nos currículos dos cursos de formação de professores a existência de uma disciplina cuja constituição, funcionamento e objetivos têm como pressuposto ensinar a ensinar a matemática. Historicamente, a disciplina Metodologia do Ensino de Matemática tem aparecido nos cursos de Licenciatura em Matemática com distintas denominações. Ao longo dessas mudanças, os pressupostos e as características dessa disciplina foram se modificando. Tomando como metodologia de pesquisa a análise documental e a história oral, e como referencial teórico os estudos de André Chervel (1990), este trabalho teve como objetivo compreender o processo histórico de disciplinarização da Metodologia do Ensino de Matemática em cursos de licenciatura em Matemática de instituições públicas de ensino superior do estado de São Paulo (USP, UNICAMP e UNESP-Rio Claro), buscando conhecer a gênese e o desenvolvimento histórico da disciplina, identificando conteúdos e métodos propostos bem como as mudanças pelas quais passou a disciplina.
