The Visual Perceptual Skills Test - TVPS-3 and the Disgraphy Scale were applied. RESULTS: The results obtained from this study showed that the students with dyslexia presented difficulties in visual skills concerning discrimination and memory. Besides discrimination and memory skills, it was observed inferior performance concerning the relation visual spacial skills and steady form, and inferior performance in all the visual skills, when compared to the chronological age. However, the group of students with good academic performance has also presented inferior performance concerning the relation visual spacial skills and steady form. CONCLUSIONS: The study mentions that maybe schools do not invest sufficiently in activities which envolve visual experiences necessary for the enhancement of reading and writing. Although statistically significant difference was not observed between the groups concerning disgraphy, it iwas possible to observe that a higher amount of students presented disgraphy.

Um estudo sobre a exclusão e a reinserção escolar de alunos da educação de jovens e adultos no município de Rio Claro

Os mistérios que permeiam a Educação de Jovens e Adultos são capazes de fazer com que as pessoas que possuem contato com esse tipo de educação se envolvam em suas questões mais profundas, buscando compreender a relação que se estabelece entre as mesmas e a educação. Dessa forma, ao entrar no projeto EJA/PIBID (Programa Institucional de Bolsa de Incentivo à Docência) como estagiária-bolsista, projeto este que visa atuar em uma sala de EJA que esteja vinculada a uma escola periférica do município, com alunos alfabetizados ou semi-alfabetizados, que vem sendo desenvolvido no Campus da UNESP de Rio Claro, juntamente com a Escola Municipal Celeste Calil localizada no bairro Jardim Novo Wenzel. Composta também de alunos da comunidade do entorno, a classe define-se como multiseriada e funciona no período vespertino.Dos problemas que norteiam a Educação de Jovens e Adultos, principalmente aqueles que atingem as camadas mais populares da sociedade, optou-se por trabalhar com o tema na busca de reflexões a duas questões centrais: os motivos que levaram as pessoas matriculadas na EJA nas referidas escolas a desistir de seus estudos e quais são os fatores motivadores que as levaram a retornar à educação escolarizada, ainda que tardiamente. As reflexões pautadas por essas duas questões serão discutidas a partir de uma pesquisa de abordagem qualitativa que tem como técnica de coleta de dados um questionário, elaborado para as turmas de EJA. A análise desses dados pode contribuir para levantar e entender a trajetória escolar desses alunos e os impactos que a vivência da exclusão escolar e o da reinserção escolar trouxeram a eles, tendo como base de estudo de fatores históricosociais/ políticos da EJA, teóricos como: Paulo Freire, Vanilda Paiva, Álvaro Pinto, Sérgio Haddad, etc

Recursos tecnológicos: uma abordagem educacional

This study aimed to analyze the use of technological resources by teachers during their daily practice, especially the computer, in public and private elementary schools in Botucatu - SP. We know that today's society, called the Information Society and Knowledge, changes the context of education, since students have access to various information a short time. For this purpose, we use literature as a methodology and data collection through the application of a questionnaire answered by 49 students in public schools, state and private network cited. The choice of the students took place because of the diversity of schools in which they live. Our intention was not to make generalizations, but knowing more about the use of technology in these contexts from the perspective of students. The choice of subject had reason for their timeliness and necessity of knowledge, thus contributing to a comprehensive education and quality. Through data analysis, was explicit the difference between public and private schools, however, student interest was unanimous by the technologies and equitably

Capital social e projeto de vida: análise a partir dos alunos de duas escolas de Rio Claro

Esta pesquisa se propôs a estudar o projeto de vida construído por alunos de duas escolas da cidade de Rio Claro-SP, considerando o Capital Social que estes alunos possuem a partir de suas realidades socioeconômicas e a importância que dão à escola quando pensam no futuro. Devido a rapidez exigida pela sociedade atual no que diz respeito as mudanças e aperfeiçoamento dos indivíduos pode-se notar um aumento na dificuldade dos jovens perante as escolhas necessárias para pensarem a vida futura, tanto no que se refere a área profissional, quanto as outras questões como sair de casa, formação da família etc. Assim é importante clarear qual a influência que o capital social destes jovens exerce sobre o projeto de vida que desejam construir. E também como este capital é capaz de fazer com que os alunos considerem a escola importante ou não para contribuir na construção do projeto de vida

Espaço geográfico e educação: um estudo sobre o lugar do Conselho de Escola

In this text, the results of our research on the geographic location and establishing relationships with the School Council. We consider some legal aspects added to the evidence gathered in our experience to check how much the School Council is constituted as a non-state public place. The possibility of setting up this feature to see a meaning whose strength lies precisely in a healthy tension between the state and established community. Here is the legislation of the School Council of Suzano (SP) and some aspects of our experience from the practice of teaching at a school in Rio das Pedras (SP). We see the nature of the legal meaning assigned to this place from the study of law, considering the municipal, regional and federal levels. In the sphere of Geography use the concepts of Space, Place and City, as issues that are dear to that science. We used the concept of Topofilia to see if this particular place is the development of an individual's sense of belonging, and how it unfolds in the dynamic implications of the operation of this instrument of popular participation in the formulation of public policy education. We discussed the elements observed in these experiments to think about the composition of living environments in urban daily life

A dimensão estética da educação ambiental nos entendimentos e práticas de arte-educadores e de professores da escola de ensino fundamental

A crise ecológica, considerada reflexo de uma crise social por vários autores, tem na Educação Ambiental (EA) um dos caminhos possíveis na reversão desse quadro. Para isso, acreditamos que ela deva contemplar três dimensões (conhecimentos, participação e valores) que se articulam e se complementam. Particularmente interessadas na dimensão dos valores, voltamo-nos à questão da valorização estética da natureza. A dimensão estética, com destaque aqui para sua associação com a arte em geral, pode contribuir para a construção de uma visão de mundo menos fragmentada, na medida em que propicia ao educando a construção de novos valores e o desenvolvimento da sensibilidade, ampliando a perspectiva desenhada pela cultura em que ele está inserido. Reconhecendo o desafio que significa a abordagem da dimensão estética em projetos de EA, objetivamos com esta investigação, de caráter qualitativo, identificar os entendimentos e práticas de professores e de arte-educadores interessados no trabalho com EA, analisando os limites e possibilidades para o trabalho com essa dimensão. A pesquisa envolveu quatro professores de escolas públicas da cidade de Rio Claro-SP, participantes de um curso de formação docente cujo tema foi a EA e o trabalho com valores, e quatro arte-educadores que realizam trabalhos de EA. Os dados foram coletados a partir das transcrições de filmagens e de relatos das reuniões ocorridas ao longo do referido curso, da análise documental dos Planos de Ensinos e diários dos professores, observação das práticas dos professores, entrevistas e questionários respondidos pelos arte-educadores. Um dos principais aspectos que emergiu da análise dos dados refere-se à necessidade de se romper com o modelo racionalista adotado por nossa sociedade, o qual, dentre outras coisas, nega a sensibilidade a ponto de tornar a dimensão estética...

Experimentação no ensino de física: um estudo escolas estaduais na região de São José dos Campos

This work presents the results of a study on the use of experimentation in physics teaching, presenting a survey on the use of this strategy in public high schools in the region of São José dos Campos. Data collection was carried out in schools by means of questionnaires prepared for physics teachers and students from three grades of high school. Data were obtained in eighteen schools distributed in the city of São José dos Campos (two in the central region, in the west, three on the east side, seven in the north and five in the south), a school in the district of Sao Francisco Xavier and a school in the town of Monteiro Lobato. Thus, data from 20 schools, 610 students and 20 teachers were analyzed. Among the main results, we highlight that over 80% of the students said that there is no physics lab at the school where they study, and less than 1% declares that uses laboratory weekly. We note that there is a laboratory in 25% of the schools in the northern region and 10% or less of the other schools. According to the students the proposition of the experimental activities by teachers is rare - only three schools in East Side the options sometimes and always exceeded the number of responses experimental activities are never proposed. We had 60% of the teachers who reported using the curriculum of the state of São Paulo to propose activities to students, and half of the teachers said they did not have classes experimental physics classes in initial training or had them in sufficient quantity to support the use of this feature in practice
