Fundamentos epistemológicos da museologia: uma proposta ao problema curricular

O objetivo deste trabalho é responder as perguntas: o que é museologia, o que a diferencia dos outros saberes, isto é, quais são os seus estatutos epistemológicos, porque a Museologia assume no Brasil aspecto predominantemente técnico o que afasta, quase sempre seus profissionais dos postos de comando e/ou decisão na área que lhe é afeta. O tema educacional está imbricado na problemática epistemológica. O tema é abordado através de diferentes aspectos e sucessivas visões: - como o Curso de Museus se inseriu no contexto histórico que lhe deu origem, a longa proposta ideológica do então único Curso de Museus do país, o desempenho deste mesmo curso de sua fundação até os dias de hoje, duas divisões de seus currículos uma quanto a sua coerência ou não com cada momento educacional e outra quanto aos conteúdos. O museu sua gênese e desempenho mundial até hoje. Estas primeiras aproximações nos levaram a constatar faltar à Museologia a evidenciação de seus estatutos epistemológicos, princípios e categorias, que a mostrasse como um saber diferenciado. Aquelas múltiplas visões nos permitiram chegar aos conceitos adequados, na área, para nosso trabalho. Passamos a ordenar o assunto por campos e destes extraímos princípios museológicos e reconhecemos estes como relacionados com a Antropologia Filosófica. Levantamos as Categorias de Antropologia Filosófica contidas nas obras de Jolif e conectamos aqueles "Princípios Museológicos" com estas categorias. Passamos, assim, a ter uma correlação Museologia/ Antropologia Filosófica que ~ permite a Museologia desenvolver-se estruturadamente passando a ter "background" para sustentar uma proposta de ensino universitário e de formação superior para o profissional de museologia e para consequentemente sustentar a pesquisa, a reflexão e a decisão nas lides e no desenvolvi menta contínuo do saber diferenciado: Museologia.

Including accessibility in higher education curricula for ICT

This paper describes the successful experience carried out by professors of the CETTICO research group of the Technical University of Madrid to incorporate accessibility in the curricula of higher education in ICT in Spain. The paper covers the legal requirements to include accessibility in curricula in Spain, the courses and modules that we have been teaching through the years and the teaching techniques and tools that we have been using.

Systems and technologies for objective evaluation of technical skills in laparoscopic surgery

Minimally invasive surgery is a highly demanding surgical approach regarding technical requirements for the surgeon, who must be trained in order to perform a safe surgical intervention. Traditional surgical education in minimally invasive surgery is commonly based on subjective criteria to quantify and evaluate surgical abilities, which could be potentially unsafe for the patient. Authors, surgeons and associations are increasingly demanding the development of more objective assessment tools that can accredit surgeons as technically competent. This paper describes the state of the art in objective assessment methods of surgical skills. It gives an overview on assessment systems based on structured checklists and rating scales, surgical simulators, and instrument motion analysis. As a future work, an objective and automatic assessment method of surgical skills should be standardized as a means towards proficiency-based curricula for training in laparoscopic surgery and its certification.

"i Went To The Woods Because I Wished To Live Deliberately": How A College-Level Academic Course Can Influence A Lifetime

This study, using the portraiture methodology, provides an analysis of the lifelong significance of an undergraduate program that integrates literature with an outdoor experiential platform. With limited research on long-term effects of an academic outdoor experiential course on one's life, there is space to wonder about the prospect and nature of the long-term significance of an academic course that may offer technical skill, intrapersonal and interpersonal development, and also the delivery of subject matter related to a traditional or mainstream academic area of study. Utilizing an academic skills-oriented lens as well as a character strengths lens, portraits were crafted of four former participants of the University of Michigan's New England Literature Program (NELP) to shed light on the long-term influence of this type of course, crucial participant characteristics that contribute to the program's impact, and specific components of the program that are particularly integral to the course's efficacy. Since 1975, each spring term a small contingent of students and educators has lived in the woods in the New England region as a community of learners, artists and explorers. NELP is an exemplar of a longstanding undergraduate academic English course that integrates the literature of New England writers, exploratory writing and student experiences relating to regional literature and the land. Emergent themes of this course's long-term influence on former participants include increased collaborative skills, increased self-confidence and self-knowledge, a reinforcement of lifelong relationships with the outdoors, and nurtured creativity. For participants to reap benefit from this course, it was important for them to enter with maturity to conduct themselves with openness to new experiences, relationships, and extensive reflection. Findings relating to the integral components of such a program include that of being place-based, oriented towards process, and being an intentional, collaborative community.
