A educação vista pelo olhar do filósofo Adorno

Adorno que foi um filósofo alemão do século passado propõe uma reflexão dos educadores sobre a possibilidade de uma reincidência de Auschwitz, que foi um dos principais campos de concentração na Segunda Guerra Mundial. Para ele a educação deveria estabelecer práticas que combatessem a possibilidade da volta de um clima cultural favorável aos campos de concentração. É nesse sentido, que para Adorno aquele professor que tem uma posição autoritária de modo que os alunos não se sintam estimulados a intervir sala de aula, cria uma situação em que o aluno pode passar a odiar o professor, ou seja, essa ideia de que os professores precisam ser rígidos para formar o caráter dos alunos é uma posição errada, pois acaba propiciando ao ódio e ao ressentimento. Outro ponto trabalhado por Adorno no livro Educação após Auschwitz é como, cada vez mais, as pessoas tendem a sentir mais afeto pelas coisas do que por outras pessoas, o que ele vai chamar de consciência coisificada.

Os estilos de liderança dos líderes escolares da Região Autónoma da Madeira

A liderança é um conceito que tem sido alvo de várias interpretações e definições no último século. O líder, em geral, tem sido visto como alguém que possui determinadas características inatas ou adquiridas, alguém que se adapta às circunstâncias e ao contexto em que a organização se insere e alguém que gere conflitos e exerce influência em ambientes ambíguos, complexos e incertos. O professor enquanto gestor/líder escolar pode assumir diferentes estilos/comportamentos na liderança da sua organização escolar: transformacional, transaccional e “laisser-faire”. Os principais «constructos» de liderança – transformacional, transaccional e passiva – formam um novo paradigma, teoria full range (Brass e Avolio, 2004) para a compreensão dos efeitos do estilo de liderança. A análise do impacto que alguns indivíduos têm sobre as suas organizações tem despertado um interesse crescente. Esses indivíduos podem ser chamados líderes carismáticos (Weber, 1968) ou transformacionais (Bass, 1985; 1990) que são líderes que, através de sua visão pessoal e de sua energia, inspiram os seguidores e têm um impacto significativo em suas organizações. Nas suas investigações sobre o conceito de liderança, Bernard Bass (1985) e Avolio (1999) comparam dois tipos de comportamento de liderança: transaccional e transformacional. Os líderes transaccionais determinam o que os subordinados precisam para realizar seus próprios objectivos e os objectivos da organização. Em contraste, os líderes transformacionais “motivam-nos a fazer mais do que originalmente esperávamos realizar” (Bass 1985, p. 28) elevando nosso sentimento da importância e do valor de nossas tarefas, “fazendo-nos transcender nossos interesses pessoais em nome da equipa, da organização ou de uma política mais ampla” (Bass,1985, p. 29) e elevando nosso nível de necessidade para as necessidades mais altas,como a auto-realização. Este estudo de investigação tem por fim determinar o modo como os docentes percepcionam a liderança das suas organizações escolares: transformacional, transaccional ou “laisser-faire”. Foi utilizado como instrumento de recolha de dados o Multifactor Leadership Questionnaire (MLQ) desenvolvido por Bass e Avolio (2004) o qual determina/identifica os estilos de liderança através da avaliação dos comportamentos do líder percepcionados pelos seus liderados. O MLQ foi aplicado a uma amostra de 97 escolas na Região Autónoma da Madeira nos meses de Janeiro, Fevereiro e Março de 2008.

António Nobre e o simbolismo em Portugal

Nesta dissertação são analisados alguns poemas de Só com o intuito de tentar compreender e verificar eventuais contributos de António Nobre para o Simbolismo em Portugal. Ao longo da nossa investigação, daremos uma particular atenção a alguns dos temas mais recorrentes na obra de António Nobre: a Solidão, a Angústia e a Morte. Sabemos que existem outras temáticas sobre as quais faremos uma breve referência; contudo, por se tratar de um vasto campo de possibilidades, limitámos o número de temas a desenvolver no presente trabalho. Veremos de que modo a última década do século XIX foi marcada, no continente Europeu, por um movimento de reação ao cientismo e ao naturalismo, bem como ao ambiente espiritual surgido em Portugal pelas mãos dos «Vencidos da Vida», cujo especial relevo terá sido atribuído a António Nobre. Verificaremos de que modo Só poderá emergir como uma obra de cariz confessional tendo tido na época o objetivo de abalar os cânones tradicionais em vigor. Só apresenta-se, entre outras possibilidades, como a expressão da história de fracassos e de fadigas do povo lusitano que cultiva o sentimento amargo da saudade, uma obra que dá a ver o retrato de Portugal do século XIX e, assim, a identidade do povo que vê Portugal decair.

A fotografia como prática de produção comunicativa e interpretação da realidade à luz da inovação pedagógica: um estudo de caso na AEC-TEA associação

Este trabalho resulta de uma pesquisa sobre a compreensão da realidade a partir da fotografia tendo em vista a construção da aprendizagem e do pensamento crítico do aluno sob o prisma dos preceitos da inovação pedagógica. Inicia-se por buscar uma definição do conceito de inovação pedagógica engendrado nos processos de ruptura paradigmática do ensino tradicional e, por conseguinte, ancora-se na construção da aprendizagem multirreferenciada pela (re)produção interativa, cooperada e mediada por ferramentas autênticas. Considera a aprendizagem como um fenômeno social e intrinsecamente conectado com a cultura dos sujeitos situados numa comunidade de prática. Para realização deste trabalho, a fotografia foi considerada uma instância portadora de sentidos transversais, que nos possibilita inferir interpretações críticas e dialogadas com a realidade criada nas representações fotografadas e, portanto, um objeto de subjetividade e práxis. Tomamos aqui, como proposta metodológica, o estudo de caso etnográfico de inspiração hermenêutica e fenomenológica. Para o estudo, o trabalho de campo se deu com os alunos da AEC-TEA associação em Capim Grosso- Ba, através de observações participantes, entrevistas e análise de documentos, no período entre agosto de 2012 a maio de 2013, analisando a prática pedagógica desenvolvida no curso de fotografias no sentido da aproximação com as premissas da educação inovadora. Dessa vivência, foram coletados os dados que subsidiaram as conjeturas aqui apresentadas no tocante à compreensão da realidade, a identidade dos sujeitos, o sentimento de sujeito pertencido e a criticidade implicadas nas formas autônomas de aprender com o mínimo de ensino. Desse modo, foi possível compreender como se dá a autoridade do sujeito em produzir o conhecimento intercrítico acerca do mundo a que pertence. Assim, a fotografia se afirma aqui como um lugar de comunicação entre os sujeitos com o mundo criado e reproduzido pelos alunos e por eles compartilhado num claro desafio aos modelos ortodoxos do ensino.

Coevolução e as práticas isomórficas de gestão: um estudo sobre os processos de mudanças institucionais no Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia do RN

The Federal Institution for Education, Science and Technology, in its historical path, has been living different changes. The transformations occurred along the way have been determined by coercive forces from the institutional environment, which has became more and more broad and complex throughout the time, obtaining diverse characteristics and new elements such as non institutional factors1 which started to contribute with the other changes. In this context, this work aims to study the isomorphic practices of the managers in the institutional changes process of the IFRN in 1998 and 2008, as of a theoretical coevolutionary perspective (CHILD; RODRIGUES; LEWIN; CARROL; VOLBERDA, 2003). This theory brings a new point of view for the organization analysis to the organizational studies, since it offers a non deterministic and non linear lection of the evolution process, which means, a coevolution. Thus, the organizations and their institutional and non institutional environment auto evolve, auto organize and auto reproduce. Therefore, the institutional and non institutional factors of the macro environment keep a continuous interdependence relationship with the organizations. For the means of this study, it is important to understand that is impossible to comprehend the object, the isomorphic practices, without considering that the previous institutional changes and its evolutions, its continuations and discontinuations, important in the coevolution process. As such, to call upon the institutional historical track is a fundamental aspect to materialize this study, for the recursive movement is indeed present in the coevolution. Another important point to make this research effective is that it is not possible to abdicate from the hologramatic view2 of this study, which considers the object, the isomorphic practices, part of the whole and this whole is also in the parts, therefore it is impossible to comprehend the object of study outside the context where it belongs. With this, as of the objective previously proposed, it is necessary to describe the characteristics of coevolution of the institutional changes related in 1998 and 2008; analyze the dynamic of the isomorphic mechanisms in its respective institutional change process; and describe the lessons learned which the isomorphic practices left to the IFRN, regarding its benefits and difficulties. All these transformations happened through coercive forces3 of the institutional environment. As of the Nineties, these forces became stronger, the environment became broader and more complex, with the emergency of new environmental factors. This study proposed to study the managing process and its practices, related to the micro environment, although it is required to articulate these actions, the demands and requirements from the macro environment. To make this research effective, semi structured interviews have been conducted with the managers who participated in both institutional change processes. In the results analysis, it has been possible to verify the particularity of each change, the one from 1998 with a strong normative action of the managers against coercive forces from the government for the search of recognition and the institutional legitimation and the one in 2008, which has been characterized by the normative action by managers in agreement with the coercive forces from the government, in favor of the government policy for the technological professional education. However, the results analysis it is possible to notice the evidence of a belonging feeling from the interviewed managers

Práticas sócio-ambientais no espaço escolar: uma reflexão sobre a percepção dos usuários de duas escolas do ensino fundamental em João Pessoa, Paraíba

In the social-historical moment we live in, it is each time more evident the necessity of the people to learn to deal with the environment in conscientious way, taking care of themselves properly through it. In this direction, considering the school as a place where children, young and adolescents spend great part of their time, this work had as objective to examine the perception of school environment for students, professors and employees of two schools in João Pessoa city - Centro Estadual Experimental de Ensino-Aprendizagem Sesquicentenário and Escola Estadual de Ensino Fundamental e Médio Presidente Emílio Garrastazu Médici (Experimental State Center of Learning-teaching Sesquicentenário and Basic and High State School Education Emilio Garrastazu Médici President). From the presupposed that the environments in which and with which people live reflect their daily practices, the field work searched to identify the social-environmental practices that characterize the relation of these users with the school and, from this understanding, to infer some of their concerns regarding the environment as a whole. To analyze the use of the available physical space in the two institutions it was opted the use of the After-Occupation Evaluation, one of the approaches that feed the process of building production or built set, rescuing aspects related to its use, operation and maintenance. Besides analyzing diverse school environments (such as classroom circulations/accesses, library, pedagogical and sportive spaces) in relation to the environmental comfort and the perceptions of the main users of the schools (pupils, professors and employees), the dissertation tried to inquire the care (ambient education) of these users with the school space. In general, it was verified that the two schools have evaluations and perceptions really different for four reasons: (i) management of the schools; (ii) the users perception; (III) localization of schools and (IV) feeling of place, territoriality and appropriation

Significados e percepções do homem diante da gravidez de sua companheira com síndromes hipertensivas

The general aim of the research was to comprehend the Social Representations constructed by the man in the face of his companion s risk pregnancy caused by hypertensive syndromes. The study is of exploratory and descriptive character in a qualitative approach developed at two public maternity hospitals, both located in Natal-RN, with 65 men whose wives had undergone high-risk pregnancy. The project was submitted to the Ethics on Research Committee of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil (CEP-UFRN), with favorable report no. 81/07. For data collection, the following multimethods were employed: a word free association test; a projective test for registering mental images; and a semistructured interview schedule. The speech contents were analyzed in accordance with the Theory of Social Representations and complemented by the Central Nucleus Theory. The discussion of the results was grounded on literary findings of the companion s participation in pregnancy as well as in risk pregnancy associated with hypertensive syndromes. The data showed fear as representation s central nucleus, while recollections of that feeling referred to death of both companion and child in addition to fear of the unknown. The categories preoccupation and carefulness, other feelings, and clinical picture of the disease represented components of the peripheral nucleus. The results concerning mental images followed the same category criteria of the word free association test fear, other feelings, preoccupation, carefulness, and clinical picture of the disease. After being processed in accordance with the principles of content analysis, the statements originated three thematic unities: fear and insecurity in the presence of the companion s risk pregnancy; attitudes of carefulness to the risk pregnancy of the partner; and humanized assistance during the companion s risk pregnancy. Considering the results, the conclusion is that the partner s risk pregnancy caused by hypertensive syndromes represents, for the man, feelings of fear, preoccupation, insecurity, lack of acceptance and information, as well as attitudes of carefulness. The results reveal necessity of reorganizing the obstetric assistance with an eye to including the man as participant in the reproductive process. That demands extension of humanized carefulness to the companion with a view to make him an active coadjutor in the assistance of high-risk pregnant

Repercussões sociais da violência contra crianças e adolescentes: deliqüência

This research is responsible for the investigation and problematization of the violence production process in children and teenagers through deviant behaviour, especially the drug s use and traffic, given that the deviant behaviour named juvenile criminality is something built and that can t be disassociated from the social and institutional relations that are ideological and violent, as well as the construction of, social and individual, positive identities can become important instruments for the process of democratization and the effective juvenile citizenship. In relation to the teorical referential, the work was developed from readings beyond the social science camp, without getting far from it, searching for support in other scientific camps and making your bases on Manuel Castells formulations about the power of the identity, and on Nancy Fraser and Axel Honneth in relation to the recognition struggle. In the empiric field, the discourses and graphic representations from twenty four children and teenagers that attend a social project were privileged, and compared to those shown at the documentary and the book Falcão Meninos do Tráfico produced by MV Bill, in relation to the social profile and life trajectory. From the study subjects' perspective, the data suggest that the children and the teenagers conceive violence as a natural thing, either as victims or persecutors. However, the research shows that, despite the subjects of the two studied groups reveled in your discourses the influence of the violent relations in their daily lives, the subjects got recognition during the process of identity construction by the groups with which they maintained the sense of belonging, either it being the family, the community or the school, they were positively influenced and established a positive representation of themselves and didn t show any deviant and violent tendency or behaviour. Therefore, we demonstrate the role of the school for an education for peace, as well as the participation of the family, the community and the stimulation of the juvenile protagonism as transforming practices, capable of awaking the citizenship and avoiding the construction of people that reproduce deviant and violent behaviour

A construção das representações sociais na relação da polícia militar e a sociedade Aracajuana

In recent years, issues involving public safety have gained more prominence in scientific debates, the media, and common sense, because undoubtedly the feeling of fear and insecurity caused by the increase in violence overall, has spread like construction element of social representations, both in individual levels, as well as collectively. Violence is a social phenomenon existing in human manifestations, from the older societies, ie it was present in all historical periods, but in different ways in the subjective and objective, having had the task of being the central element in modeling process for the formation of individual behavior, both in older societies as in modern society. However, it has a peculiar feature of acquiring new contours to the extent that the individual and collective behaviors are modified in relation individual-violence. In this sense, the institutions that establish the order from the control of violence, have their social representations in the context of social relationships permeated by elements of violence, fear and insecurity, that shift the subjective feeling of insecurity, or existential, for a concrete plan and goal, namely to the level of physical insecurity in daily life in the modern world. The objective of this study was to capture the construction of social representations of the population in Aracaju on the police institution and the figure of the policeman in the contemporary context. We focus our attention only to the institutions of order, which constitute the field of the apparatus of public security and social protection of our state

So, I found that grounded in the notion of family, gypsies are seen as a group, searching the history / past nomadic origing and blood common elements that underlie its condition, and the language a cultural trait that makes it possible to establish objective distinctions among gypsies and other community residentes, becoming thus a diacritical mark.
