O professor como mediador da facilidade/dificuldade de aprendizagem do aluno

This study arose from many issues that permeated the undergraduate degree in Education about the role of schools in society, and how this, which also represents space and time, has influenced the lack of pleasure in learning of school students fundamental. Thus, we intend to review the context of the formal school emergence in Brazil, noting its social function and compare the changes in the initial model to the present day. The aim is also to analyze the writing of a group of students about school design, which was transferred by a teacher who participates in the Extension Project: Teacher Education for Specialized Educational Support Services to Students with Learning Disabilities in order to articulate the extent to which the school contributes to the feeling of not belonging student at school. It is a qualitative research, which was used initially on a review and written analysis procedure

Transposição didática da interação do laser com sistmas biológicos no ensino médio: uma proposta de guia didático para professores

In this dissertation was elaborated an interdisciplinary didactic sequence for the development of Physical concepts involved in the interaction of laser radiation with biological matter in order to make a relation between Physics and other fields of knowledge aiming to enlarge the contextualization of scientific knowledge. The objective was to develop an educational product which theme is “Laser’s Interaction with Biological Tissues”. In this work, basic physical concepts related to laser radiation were presented, its interaction with matter and applicability in the student's daily life, with emphasis on Public Health. The inclusion of the subject in schools was effected through didactic transposition as theoretical foundation and the three pedagogical moments as teaching support. The development of the project involved discussions of scientific knowledge applied in society’s daily life. In the product's design the didactic sequence was projected and the use of varied teaching resources has been proposed, such as videos, texts, experiments, simulators and de Software “Tracker”. The construction of paradidactic material was performed considering different stages of equal importance for a teacher's reflection process. The work prioritizes the alternative conceptions of student, transforming him in a direct agent of the construction of knowledge and this aspect is based on the profile of the Student's Material. Another important point is the evaluation's proposal, this was systematized to be done class after class through building texts, essay questions, presentation of papers, among others activities. The didactic sequence guides the introduction of relevant topics of the students and society’s daily life, the ideas are not closed and in many times the teacher make changes which deem relevant to the teaching for better development of their practice.

O conhecimento profissional do professor e as investigações matemáticas na sala de aula: Um estudo nos 1º e 2º ciclos do ensino básico

Este estudo tem como objetivo contribuir para a compreensão do conhecimento profissional do professor de Matemática envolvido no desenvolvimento de tarefas de investigação na sala de aula, focando-se em quatro questões orientadoras: (i) como é que os professores colocam em prática as tarefas de investigação, considerando a planificação e condução das aulas? (ii) que dificuldades sentem os professores no desenvolvimento de tarefas de investigação na sala de aula? (iii) como é que o conhecimento didático dos professores influencia o desenvolvimento de tarefas de investigação? (iv) como é que o conhecimento didático dos professores é influenciado pelo desenvolvimento de tarefas de investigação? A fundamentação teórica assenta sobre as duas grandes temáticas do estudo: o conhecimento profissional do professor, sendo discutida a sua natureza, estrutura e conteúdo, e as tarefas de investigação, das quais se aprofunda a natureza e a utilização em sala de aula. Apresenta-se ainda investigação empírica referente ao conhecimento profissional do professor envolvido no desenvolvimento de tarefas de investigação. O estudo assumiu uma abordagem interpretativa, concretizando-se através dois estudos de caso, um de uma professora de 1. ° Ciclo e outro de um professor de Matemática do 2. ° Ciclo do Ensino Básico. Estes professores trabalharam em colaboração com a investigadora sobre tarefas de investigação, que até aí não conheciam, planificando, lecionado e refletindo acerca de um conjunto de aulas com tarefas desta natureza. Foram recolhidos dados durante as sessões de trabalho referidas, bem como nas aulas e ainda em entrevistas realizadas a cada um dos professores. Uma leitura transversal dos casos permite retirar algumas conclusões. A possibilidade de enquadramento nos conteúdos programáticos parece ser o principal critério de seleção das tarefas por parte dos professores. Na planificação, é a inventariação dos conteúdos que a tarefa mobiliza a principal prioridade, na busca da redução do grau de incerteza relacionado com as eventuais reações dos alunos. Quanto à condução de tarefas de investigação, a fase de introdução foi a mais breve, tendo servido o objetivo de conduzir à compreensão do propósito da tarefa por parte dos alunos e também reforçar alguns aspetos metodológicos do trabalho investigativo. A fase de desenvolvimento da tarefa foi aquela a que o professor de 2. ° Ciclo atribuiu maior importância, embora também valorizada pela professora de 1. ° Ciclo. Aqui, os professores consideram que o seu papel é acompanhar e orientar o trabalho dos alunos, ajudando a ultrapassar possíveis obstáculos, mantendo uma atitude questionadora. Quanto à fase de discussão, a grande preocupação dos professores é garantir a compreensão das ideias apresentadas pelos alunos. No entanto, existem duas estratégias distintas: enquanto a professora de 1. ° Ciclo, que muito valorizou esta fase, estimula a interação aluno-aluno, atribuindo-lhes a responsabilidade de validar/rejeitar as conjeturas apresentadas, o professor de 2. ° Ciclo centra em si toda esta fase, assumindo a responsabilidade de corrigir as ideias apresentadas. O desenvolvimento de tarefas de investigação é influenciado pelo conhecimento didático, revelando-se determinantes o conhecimento dos alunos e da forma como aprendem e o conhecimento do processo instrucional. O desenvolvimento de tarefas de investigação influencia várias componentes do conhecimento didático do professor, permitindo-lhe fortalecer o seu conhecimento matemático, desenvolver um conhecimento mais completo dos alunos e da forma como aprendem. Por último, a prática letiva com tarefas de investigação fornece ao professor dados importantes de como planificar e conduzir tarefas de natureza aberta, de forma a tirar o máximo partido das suas potencialidades. ABSTRACT: This study’s aim is to contribute to the understanding of the professional knowledge of the Maths teacher, involved in the development of investigative tasks in the classroom, focusing four guiding questions: (i) how do teachers give practical way to the investigative tasks, having in mind the lesson plans and lesson execution? (ii) Which difficulties do the teachers face when developing the investigative tasks in the classroom? (iii) How does the teachers' didactical knowledge influence the development of the investigative tasks? (iv) How is the teachers' didactical knowledge influenced by the development of the investigative tasks? The theorical framework is based on two broad themes of the study: teacher's professional knowledge (discussing its nature, structure and contents) and the investigative tasks (whose nature and use in the classroom is deepened). Besides, empirical research in what concerns to the professional knowledge of the teacher involved in the development of investigative tasks is also added. The study assumed an interpretative approach, materialised through two case studies, one of a primary school teacher, the other of a preparatory school Maths teacher. The teachers worked in cooperation with the researcher on the investigative tasks, which, until then, they weren't familiar with, planning, teaching and thinking about a set of lessons with tasks of this kind. Data were collected during the work meetings, as well as in the lessons and also in interviews to each one of the teachers. A transversal appreciation of the cases allows us to draw some conclusions. The possibility of integrating the programmatic contents seems to be the main criteria for the selection of the tasks by the teachers. ln the planning, the main priority of the task is the inventory of contents, aiming to reduce the level of uncertainty in what concerns to eventual reactions of the students. ln what concerns to the conduction of the investigative tasks, the introduction phase was the shortest, fulfilling the aim of leading to the understanding of the proposal of the task by the students and also to reinforce some methodological aspects of the investigative work. The task's development phase was the one the preparatory school teacher dedicated more importance, though it was also valued by the primary school teacher. ln this aspect, the teachers consider that their role is to follow and lead the students’ work, helping them to overtake eventual obstacles, keeping the questioning attitude. ln what concerns the discussion phase, the big concern of the teachers is to reassure the understanding of the ideas presented by the students. However, there are two different strategies: while the primary school teacher, who really valued this phase, stimulates the student-student interaction, giving them the responsibility of validating/rejecting the presented conjectures; the preparatory school teacher centers around himself all this phase, assuming the responsibilities of correcting the presented ideas. The development of the investigative tasks is influenced by the didactical knowledge, and it is determinant the knowledge about the students and about the way they learn and the instructional knowledge. The development of the investigative tasks influences several components of the didactical knowledge of the teacher, allowing him/her to reinforce his mathematical knowledge, developing a more complete knowledge about the students and the way they learn. Finally, the lessons execution with investigative tasks provides the teacher with important data about how to plan and conduct open nature tasks, in order to take the biggest advantage of their potential.

Yasi : Digital stories and oral histories collection

"The second of the Oral History Workshops conducted by Associate Professor Helen Klaebe and the Oral History team from the Queensland University of Technology in Brisbane, was conducted in El Arish on the last weekend in September 2011. The first workshop was held in Cardwell in March 2011. Historical Society members and other researchers from both the Cardwell and El Arish areas combined to organise and fund the workshops, which have produced a growing collection of recordings of personal stories from people with a wide variety of experiences during and after cyclone Yasi. Aside from being productive in documenting history, the workshops have offered a greatly appreciated educational opportunity for many people, most of whom have never before had access to such benefits. Not only were they able to learn history gathering methodologies and the relevant technical skills, but they also gained new experience in the use of computers to apply these skills. These far northern oral history workshops took the form of a shortened version of the 5 series workshops being presented at QUT in Brisbane this year. The agenda was aligned to the wishes and requirements of the participants who attended from the Cassowary Coast and Tableland regions."
