As contribuições da Pedagogia Waldorf no atendimento a diversidade e na valorização das diferenças

The ideal of Waldorf Education, since the opening of the first school in 1919, was based on innovative principles for a humanized society. Among those principles, there was the attendance of all children without distinction, which is exactly the main idea of the inclusive school. Waldorf pedagogy defends that under the right pedagogical action and care with the individual development, anyone can develop, regardless of their disability. This statem ent highlights the main objective of this methodology, that is the human development, aligned to another fundamental guideline of inclusive education. Accordingly, the hypothesis of this work is that Waldorf education promotes inclusive schooling contexts, attending diversity and valuing differences. The general objective of this study is: analyze Waldorf Education to verify if it promotes inclusive contexts. And the specific objetives were: identify elements in this practice that favors diversity attend; analyze the practice of a Waldorf school, considering documentation, structure, and conception of managers, teachers and parents. The study was based on quantitative and qualitative research approach, and the data was collected trough observation of teaching practices in a classroom where a disabled student was present, as well as through documentation and observation of the school environment. Furthermore, in order to verify the understanding of parents (71 individuals) and teachers (18 individuals) on inclusion, a specific questionnaire was developed for each of these two groups. For the records, a diary and an observation script were used. It was concluded that Waldorf methodology provides all the necessary conditions to inclusion, mainly due to it's enhancement of individuality, didactic organization and it's roots in social relations

O uso da atividade guia (brincar) como catalisadora do desenvolvimento do pensamento e da linguagem

To select pedagogical practices that allow the development of psychic function thinking and psychic function language. It's necessary understanding the whole psyche human, postulated by Vygotsky. The action of playing, the main activity of the children in the childhood education, can enhance the resilience of the psychic functions, once it provides stimulus and may include teacher's intervention during its deployment. For a better intervention, this planning in light of a theory is primordial, as well as the reflection on this practice. This research aimed to find the moment of the activities that took place the development of these functions, language and thought, in children who are in the early years of the childhood education. The survey was conducted through a qualitative interpretation approach, as action research. Data analysis allowed us to observe planned teaching practices in which enabled the development of language and thought and consequently a qualitative leap in the other psychic functions

A reumatologia em um curso de medicina com aprendizagem baseada em problemas

OBJETIVO: Apresentar a experiência de uma instituição brasileira no ensino da Reumatologia na graduação médica, cujo projeto pedagógico é estruturado em metodologias ativas de aprendizado. MÉTODOS: Realizou-se um estudo descritivo, com abordagem qualitativa dos conteúdos referentes à Reumatologia no curso de Medicina do Centro Universitário do Estado do Pará (Cesupa). RESULTADOS: O sistema musculoesquelético é abordado no segundo e sétimo semestres, nos módulos referentes ao sistema locomotor e Clínica Médica II, respectivamente, sendo que cada etapa e cada atividade apresentam objetivos específicos mínimos. Além do conteúdo teórico, no sétimo semestre, os alunos realizam atendimentos no ambulatório de Reumatologia, quando existe maior ênfase na elaboração correta de anamnese e exame físico. No internato, os alunos retornam ao ambulatório de Reumatologia e, neste momento, as habilidades de diagnóstico, de investigação e de terapêutica são as mais exigidas. CONCLUSÃO: Ainda há muito para evoluir em busca de um modelo ideal para o ensino da Reumatologia, porém, cumprindo as principais recomendações disponíveis para a boa prática do ensino na graduação, podemos proporcionar ao futuro médico conhecimento, habilidade e experiências capazes de ajudá-lo na condução desses pacientes.

Creating Meaningful Homework and Implementing Homework Presentations to Aid in Mathematics Instruction

In this action research study of sixth grade mathematics, I investigated the use of meaningful homework and the implementation of presentations and its effect on students’ comprehension of mathematical concepts. I collected data to determine whether the creating of meaningful homework and the implementation of homework presentations would have a positive impact on the students’ understanding of the concepts being taught in class and the reasoning behind assigning homework. The homework was based on the lesson taught during class time. It was grade-level appropriate and contained problems similar to those students completed in class. A pre-research and post-research survey based on homework perceptions and my teaching practices was given, student interviews were conducted throughout the research period, weekly teacher journals were kept that pertained to my teaching practices and the involvement of the students that particular week, and homework assignments were collected to gauge the students’ understanding of the mathematics lessons. Most students’ perceptions on homework were positive and most understood the reasoning for homework assignments.

Differentiation in the Content-Area Classroom for English Language Learners

This paper explores the idea of using differentiation strategies in the content-area classroom to improve reading skills and comprehension. In particular, this thesis explores methods and strategies that can be used in the classroom to help address the individual needs of English language learners (ELLs). A broad range of experts in curriculum, differentiation, and English language acquisition were consulted in the development of this review, which synthesizes the research on ELLs’ needs, differentiation, and differentiation strategies for ELL readers. The models for best teaching practices are then placed within a ninth grade language arts unit.

Gli schemata corporei degli Orixás: Azioni, gesti e atteggiamenti della cultura afro-brasiliana nelle metodologie pedagogico-teatrali

Questa tesi prende in esame le convergenze culturali (tecniche e prassi attoriali) nelle metodologie pedagogiche del “secondo” Novecento teatrale. L’analisi riguarda il modo in cui le tecniche provenienti dai derivati della tradizione africana – in particolare le azioni, i gesti e gli atteggiamenti corporei usati nelle danze sacre del Candomblé – e lo studio degli organi espressivi del corpo permettono all’ artista della scena di acquisire conoscenze pragmatiche su determinati automatismi della sua struttura bio-psichica. L’esame di queste convergenze è fatto pertanto attraverso l’analisi di pratiche teatrali che ammettono le interconnessioni culturali, le “migrazioni” ed i “contagi” fra tecniche teatrali europee e modus operandi extraeuropei. Mediante l’analisi di queste pratiche pedagogiche transculturali si verifica che, gli elementi tecnico-espressivi “estranei” appartenenti ad altre culture possono essere efficaci in un tipo di metodologia “meticcia” solo quando questo modus operandi transculturale contempla la partecipazione collaborativa tra i soggetti coinvolti nel processo educativo.

L'Insegnamento della Lingua Portoghese nelle Università Italiane

Il presente lavoro si prefigge di descrivere e analizzare la realtà dell’insegnamento della lingua portoghese nelle università italiane, con particolare attenzione alla presentazione della varietà brasiliana, nel quadro dell’educazione linguistico-culturale in senso lato. Per poter cogliere l’insieme interrelato di fattori che compongono il processo di insegnamento/apprendimento in questa specifica situazione, la ricerca si sviluppa in tre ambiti: i) riflessione sulle varietà della lingua portoghese, basata sugli studi attuali in ambito linguistico e sociolinguistico relativi all’area lusofona, mettendo a fuoco il portoghese brasiliano; ii) ricognizione dell’attuale stato dell’insegnamento del portoghese all’interno degli atenei italiani, attuata tramite una ricerca quantitativa basata su un questionario online; iii) indagine qualitativa sulle pratiche didattiche, in presenza e online, basate rispettivamente sull’analisi dei materiali didattici in uso negli atenei e sull’analisi culturale e linguistica delle interazioni fra studenti in teletandem. L’analisi dei dati ha permesso di tracciare un quadro rappresentativo dell’insegnamento del portoghese nel contesto accademico nonché di delineare percorsi formativi integrativi alle lezioni tradizionali, che mettano in evidenza lo stretto legame fra lingua e cultura, e quindi per meglio contestualizzare l’apprendimento della lingua e della cultura brasiliana in Italia.

THE EXPERIENCE OF RESEARCH, GROWTH, DEVELOPMENT AND LEADERSHIP OF THE MiTEP PROGRAM

Chapter 1. The Action Research in this report was to focus on improving the reading comprehension of students with expository text in relation to identifying the main idea and supporting details. Students were given an expository text to read and identify main idea and 2 -3 supporting details as a pre assessment. Students were provided instruction and support in DRTA (Directed Reading Thinking Activity) and SQ3R (Survey, Question, Read, Recite, Review) methodology to identify the Main Idea and supporting details of a selected expository text for both pre & posttest. Results were compiled and analyzed on the effectiveness of the strategies by overall student growth in accurately identifying the Main Idea and being able to state at least 2 supporting details. Analysis of the data will show that the methods were effective in middle school students’ ability to read and extrapolate the necessary information from expository text. Chapter 2 is a reflective essay on the MiTEP Michigan Teacher Excellence Program and its impact on my teaching practices, lesson delivery and leadership development.

Preservice Teacher Preparation in Meeting the Needs of Gifted and Other Academically Diverse Students

The issue of how to respond to the diverse academic needs of students is one of the central challenges of teaching. This project studied how preservice teachers develop an awareness of the needs of academically diverse learners and how they intend to implement and/or modify instruction to meet those needs. Participants all came from one university. As part of the design of the study, the participants were surveyed to investigate (a) their attitudes and beliefs towards academically diverse learners; (b) the teaching practices they would utilize in response to academic diversity in their classrooms; and (c) the confidence they have in their abilities to identify and address these various needs in their classrooms. Several strategies including activities to enhance creativity, cooperative learning, individual instruction, problem-solving activities, and projects were considered noteworthy for the ratings by the preservice teachers as appropriate for all students. Small differences were found based on the preservice teachers' year of placement in the School of Education, indicating that as students progress through this program, they may learn more about different techniques and when and for whom they are appropriate; however, differences across groups were not statistically significant. Results also indicated that across the different years in the program, preservice teachers did not have very high or very low confidence in addressing these issues in their own classrooms. Each grouping fell around the middle level of confidence.

“Y…a mí me parece que es porque los niños ganaron" : relato y análisis de una experiencia pedagógica

Este relato presenta una experiencia pedagógica desarrollada con un grupo de niños de 2º ciclo, en proceso de alfabetización, que asisten a una escuela de recuperación - modalidad de Educación Especial - de la Ciudad Autónoma de Buenos Aires. Se analizan momentos clave de la experiencia a partir de los aportes de las teorías genéticas del desarrollo en el marco de la perspectiva interdisciplinaria (Elichiry, 2009). Se interpela el uso de categorías que históricamente se han utilizado y aún se utilizan para describir a los niños que habitan nuestras escuelas y se propone una reflexión sobre prácticas de enseñanza, de manera de ofertar entornos favorecedores que promuevan las potencialidades de los alumnos. El trabajo se inscribe en el marco de la documentación narrativa de experiencias pedagógicas que posibilita poner a prueba “lo que sucede" y “lo que nos sucede" en el trabajo diario, recuperando y reconstruyendo las voces de los diferentes actores (Suarez, 2007).

Consideraciones en torno de la articulación entre investigación y docencia en educación superior : propuestas de estrategias de intervención e innovación

El presente artículo busca elaborar una reflexión a partir de un conjunto de experiencias en las que profesores del área de humanidades y ciencias sociales diseñaron y ejecutaron proyectos de intervención pedagógica, de carácter innovador, en el desarrollo de sus cursos, y luego los discutieron en el marco de los foros organizados por la red Innova/Cesal. Se abordan marcos de referencia que contribuyan al diseño de intervenciones pedagógicas y brinden insumos que orienten el trabajo de la docencia universitaria interesada en modificar su práctica educativa e innovar sus estrategias de enseñanza y aprendizaje.

Análisis de las prácticas de promoción social del Mayor de Bolívar : hacia la construcción de saberes desde la investigación activa participativa

A partir de la siguiente pregunta: ¿cómo retroalimentar las prácticas del programa de tecnología en promoción social del colegio mayor de bolívar, para la construcción de saberes desde el conocimiento de lo cotidiano?, Surge el objetivo central del presente artículo que consiste en: analizar las prácticas profesionales del programa de promoción social del colegio mayor de bolívar, para la consolidación de la investigación acción participativa, en aras de enriquecer el currículo y las prácticas pedagógicas, permitiendo recrear y fortalecer procesos instituidos, y detectar vacíos o limitaciones. Ello indica que se fundamentará con postulados teóricos de autores como orlando fals borda, para la comprensión de la iap y ezequiel ander egg para la interpretación del concepto de asistencialismo entre otros. El itinerario metodológico, se acoge al paradigma interpretativo-fenomenológico, en torno a la estrategia cualitativa: inductiva-deductiva. Tendrá inicialmente actividades de análisis de documentación, específicamente referente a los documentos institucionales, además de la implementación de entrevistas y la revisión de la bibliografía con la cual se fundamentará teóricamente la investigación. Se trata de generar dudas y reflexiones acerca la importancia del fortalecimiento de la actividad investigativa en programas tecnológicos, en contra de lo que podría convertirse en procesos asistencialistas.
