Escrita e leitura que tecem o cotidiano de pessoas pouco escolarizadas: um estudo

Este estudo visa aprofundar as reflexões sobre as práticas de leitura e escrita efetivadas por pessoas jovens e adultas pouco escolarizadas. A partir das experiências vivenciadas enquanto educadora do Projeto de Educação de Pessoas Jovens e Adultas: Práticas e Desafios (PEJA) da Universidade Estadual Paulista Júlio de Mesquita Filho (Unesp), câmpus de Rio Claro, que instigaram-me a olhar para as práticas de leitura e escrita de pessoas pouco escolarizadas, surgiram algumas indagações que aqui se colocam enquanto problemas da pesquisa: O que move as práticas de leitura e escrita efetivadas por esses sujeitos, pessoas comuns? E qual o sentido atribuído pelo sujeito que escreve e lê às suas próprias práticas de escrita e leitura? Pautando-se por uma abordagem qualitativa, o presente estudo se organiza iniciando-se pelo levantamento realizado nos trabalhos submetidos e encomendados, no período de 2000 a 2013, nos Grupos de Trabalho GT-18, GT-10 e GT-03, nas Reuniões Anuais da Associação Nacional de Pós-Graduação e Pesquisa em Educação (ANPEd) sobre a temática. Na sequência, aponto as contribuições teóricas de autores tais como Roger Chartier e Michel de Certeau sobre as práticas de ler e escrever, assumidas como práticas culturais. Por fim, apresento e comento tópicos das entrevistas realizadas com uma educanda que se faz poetisa no PEJA - Rio Claro e o levantamento dos escritos por ela produzidos, de modo a constituir um arquivo de sua produção escrita. A análise do material coletado nos faz perceber que tais práticas ultrapassam a esfera escolar produzindo outros sentidos; portanto o ensino escolarizado transcende a prática educativa escolar. Há que se refletir sobre a existência da diversidade de saberes e descobrir modos outros de realização de trabalhos que atrelem os saberes escolares e as práticas culturais

Natação Adaptada: análise da função pulmonar de pessoas com deficiência

The research discusses the pulmonary function of the students of SORRI that are part of the Project for the extension of the Department of Physical Education in Bauru Swimming for People with Disabilities during the aquatic activities, noting the changes in efficiency class of breathing with the practice of aquatic activity, by the analysis of the volume and respiratory capacity. The respiratory control is essential in the process of adaptation to the liquid medium, because a student who fails to immerse the face in the water will not be able to adopt a horizontal position sufficiently stable. The practice of aquatic activities requires a great effort of breathing. Therefore, the practice of aquatic activities influence favorably the breathing, because the movements performed in the water tone the diaphragm, which is the essential muscle of the breathing, allowing an improvement in pulmonary ventilation. For the purposes of this study, the sample was composed of 10 students of the SORRI of the city of Bauru forming part of the project Swimming for People with Disabilities, practicing swimming once a week for 1 hour. For the collection of lung volumes and capacities was used a transducer of air flow and a unit of data collection, model MP36, both of the brand Biopac connected to a computer, where the data were collected and recorded for later analysis. Two tests were carried out in a day with each participant in the project of swimming, and a test at the beginning of the lesson, at rest, and another after a series of 10 breaths carried out within the swimming pool. These tests were performed in the months of March and April. The analysis of the data was through the medium of the figures and also individually, noting the changes in respiratory function of students practicing aquatic activities, without which there would be no comparison between the participants. The measurements of the scores on the pre- and post-exercise show that the...

Orientação sobre posse responsável em uma área endêmica para leishmaniose visceral canina

The purpose of this work was to provide guidance to householders in the responsible care of their pets, in a region where canine visceral leishmaniasis is endemic. Questionnaires on responsible ownership and the control of this disease were completed by owners of dogs and cats in the city of Araçatuba, São Paulo State, Brazil, in order to evaluate their level of knowledge. Based on the identified deficiencies, the project team provided the owners of the pets with individual guidance at home, focusing on the most critical issues. Concerning nutrition, 70.45% (62/88) of owners provided pet food only, 27.28% (24/88) administered a mixed diet, and 2.27% (2/88) provided homemade food. Additionally, 78.41% (69/88) did not permit the consumption of raw meat, rare meat, or bones. 9.09% (8/88) of owners allowed their pets to wander the neighborhood alone. Among dogs, 14.77% (13/88) had never been clinically tested by a qualified professional, and 6.82% (6/88) and 15.91% (14/88) had never received any kind of vaccine or vermifuge, respectively. In relation to population control, only 20.45% (18/88) of the dogs had been sterilized. It was also observed that 25% (22/88) of owners had already had canine visceral leishmaniasis seropositive dogs in their homes. 54.55% (12/22) of these owners had referred their pets to veterinary clinics for euthanasia, 22.73% (5/22) had used the services of the city’s animal disease control center, and 18.18% (4/22) had paid for private treatment. Nevertheless, 35.23% (31/88) of the dogs had never been submitted to tests for infection diagnosis. From the results obtained, it could be inferred that the individuals who participated in this study were poorly informed concerning basic pet care, demonstrating a need to implement community awareness campaigns for the responsible ownership of pets.

Humanização na assistência odontológica de pessoas com deficiência, através do projeto Cão Cidadão-Unesp

The Araçatuba School of Dentistry along with the Veterinary Medical Course, both from UNESP, develop the Extension Project called “Cão Cidadão UNESP” (Unesp Citizen Dog), which is accomplished in some assistance societies, including the Dental Assistance Center to Persons with Disabilities (“Centro de Assistência Odontológica à Pessoa com Deficiência” - CAOE-UNESP). This project develops a multidisciplinary work involving professionals and students from health sciences. The project aims at developing activities to relieve stress, fear and anxiety of patients with disabilities in the moment that precedes the dental treatment. The team performs procedures such as walking with the dogs and patients, toothbrushing the dogs so the patients can see it, in order to learn and motivate themselves, dressing the dogs with some accessories such as white clothes, mask and cap, to associate with image of the dentist, making this relationship more pleasant and welcoming. It is evidenced, through reports of professionals, that the patients become calmer and more collaborative with the dentists, distracting them from the treatment focus and creating a positive bond. It should be noted that this experience has contributed to motivate the professionals to introduce new techniques for dental approach, such as Animal Assisted Therapy. It also shows that animals can be very helpful in treating people with disabilities, because they offer a lot of love, companionship and provide moments of joy and happiness to the participants.
